Criterium for Market perks and stuff?

[DeepSixed]

Been selling some high price stuff at the market and yet I've gotten nothing for the effort: no boxes, pyramids, etc... while I've seen other stalls with only single item for sale... keep theirs month after month.

For Devs mostly; but any can respond:

What does a market stall have to sell or do to be delineated 'special'? How do you get the extras that are supposed to note something extra?


Secondly... and I assume this based on recorded fact... you keep this august status forever...regardless... even if you only sell brains at 20s... and nothing else?!

Finally- I've run across a stall selling 10-12 hay for 10s... but it can never, ever be recieved... graphic shows briefly in my inventory and then disappears.

Almost like it's a bug or exploit... that you, Devs, have ignored on purpose and allowed to exist for jeers... since I return to the game. I'm sure it's been there longer than me... you just too lazy to fix it.

The stall is bugged...wondering if rent is bugged too... and/or wtf?!

i remember a stall needs to have a specific amount of items in it to look "Full" with boxes etc..

That doesn't explain the one item stall that been only one item for 2 months plus that still have pyramid next to it...as if It's a major player....

I recall complaining to JC about the lack of marketable items for newbs or for me in general... and he told me to look for these market items... these things that were meant to make some stalls stand out from others.

Yet it seems now... you just have to get there once... and then no matter what... you are King there after.

You don't have to live up to the label... you got it once... yours forever.


Thanks JC... for ***** this up too....

Please fix?!

Stalls hold a maximum of 1000 single item counts.
The visuals represented next to a stall are simply count indicators of how many single count items it has filled up.

If a stall has 450 Brains, 300 Hay, 100 Bones(Random items in high count)
That equates to 850/1000 space used and gives visuals for it.

If a stall has a Rolling Pin, 40 Dry Boards, and a Rotten Mulberry
That is 42/1000 space.

Price values are completely null as to what the stall shows.

Didn't take long to start another anger thread, did it Frotted. Kudos for waiting for the ban to wear off though.

[DeepSixed]

I'm not angry... just trying to understand the mechanic.

Conservatively... I'm made the King 25K silver [that his taxes only...not my profits] in the last month but have received no recognition of that in the Market. While the guy selling nothing but Brains...who's volume has been constant between 60-100 @20s each...and that's the only thing he sells...keeps his pyramid... just trying to sort out why he keeps what he has...and what I can do to match it...if ever.

Something has been overlooked, bugged, or just plain blown off by Devs.

This thread was meant to catch their attention... not other players.

But do respond... bigger it gets more likely they will take notice!

[Trismegistus]

OK. Why are you so concerned with getting boxes or a pyramid next to your stall? Are the sales not enough to satiate?

ROFL... after someone bought the store scarecrow ($4.99 US package) for 25,000silver not so much... but the principal idea remains.


Let me repeat... JohnCarver PM'd me to look for the tell tales that a market stall was worth noting over others.

Why?

I've been paying attention since he sent me that PM... and now I want to know why bother?

I'm saying to him... and to you as community... it's a broken mechanic. It's crap... it's BS... grandfathered long enough and needs to go... etc ?!

[Kandarim]

or just put more stuff in your stall.
