Question:
How would this differ from, say, making a PVP event at Zychion, where prize = "accumulate ammo/decay"?
My guess would be it would run as a full-time version of this, yes?
If youre asking me, yes and more. Asking Kim, Im not sure.
That was an unintended but amusing rhyme.
For me, the yes and more is all in perception. Its immediately accessible, is an integral part of any town that serves as an actual "capital" city, such as Twin Peaks, Port Atlantis, Athena Spaceport, and perhaps even the Asteroid, so is a staple of any town, and its free, completely, at its most basic level. This is the most important part.
Anyone can participate.
At it's heart this plan is a vehicle for socialization. Put players in touch with one another on a competitive level. Bonds will develop.
It's those bonds more than anything else that encourage later depositing. People want to stay and spend time with their friend. That eventually translates into doing activities elsewhere in the world with them. And that is a likely deposit scenario.
