I think it would be a great idea to have a "bonus" day each month, something for us all to look forward to. A couple of possibilities would be to double the price of a crop for one day, or double a particular mining block for one day. I don't know if this could be done or not but it would be great to give everybody "fly" for one day - I bet if that were to happen, the donations would come "flying" in! Or give sg players a kit for one day. I guess the possibilities would be endless but it would give us all something to look forward to each month. I love ECC and a Bonus Day would make me love it even more!
I think if this were to be implemented it should be something that's an equal bonus for everyone and not money related. Not a "free" feature for a day, because then players who already have donated lose out on the "bonus". And raising a crop/mining price would be really bad because people have stockpiles worth millions of dollars at current value -- if they /sell it at x2 or even x1.5 price it would be bad for the economy.
I don't think the idea of doubling the prices on any given day is a good idea. People will just save up what they want to sell and wait for that day to double their profit. The idea to let people test out donation features isn't half bad though.
The examples I gave weren't very good but the idea is to have some sort of a perk for one day each month.
Sure, a bonus day would be nice. However, nothing money/feature related though. That would be unfair to people that already have features. Maybe if we could think of better perks to give us.
I believe this would be a good idea and would bring all ECC Players together on that particular day. I'm not sure about the suggested bonuses mentioned above, but think the overall concept is a good idea. The actual bonuses will have to be thought on but overall, I like the idea.
