The Battle List and Hidden Taxation

Discussion in 'Strategy' started by -reset-, Oct 30, 2011.

  1. I would like to invite your comments on a prominent feature of the game called The Battle List.

    In case you aren't aware of this segment of the game, this button on your home screen will generate a list of players you can battle within a range of stats based on your current stats.

    Reward is shown on this screen, and reward increases in line with the difficultly of beating the individuals in a battle (either fight or dance)

    The feature will only select active players for you to battle.

    Based on a little experiment I conducted today I have arrived at a number of interesting conclusions based on my usage of this prominent in game feature:
    - Many players seem to be aggrieved to be on the receiving end of a single hit
    - Many players of strong stats (I'm c. 200k stats at the point of writing) revert to whining like a spoiled child (see my wall for examples) and demand to know why they have been attacked without them first attacking
    - PIMD operates a form of hidden taxation - removing c. 200mil per hit from these players purses, man bags and piggy banks whilest only rewarding me with 4mil.

    How do you as players feel about the battle list?

    Do you use this prominent in game feature?

    Your thoughts are welcomed in this matter.
     
  2. I'm lcbc there's an unwritten rule not to attack anyone  or I think u will get farmed 

    I used my battle list alot when I was smaller... it's funny seeing people complain on my wall

    It's part of the game  sheesh


    Back in January pimd was exciting
     
  3. I never got farmed except recently because I hired someone's tutor. I would rather have the person that hits me get less money.
     
  4. I'm only a little over 20kcs for the moment and never use my battle list.

    I prefer to farm inactives, but people do hit me regularly. I don't retaliate unless they continue to hit me multiple times ... The battle list is there for a reason and if someone hits me well that's just part of the game ...
     
  5. Lol. I just used the battle list, and I farmed 'em!
    Here comes the complaining xD
     
  6. LMFAO.
    Look at my wall :lol:
    I already got a complaint
     
  7. I got hit once when I was smaller lost 900m  that person only got 1.5mwtf

    If we got the full amount I'll be farming the shit out of everyone 


    That's not good news for anyone so it's like that for a reason lol
     
  8. LOL ares I looked at your wall.
    That's hilarious 
     
  9. Ares - Nice wall ;)

    I spotted a common Captain Obvious on Wayne's wall xD
     
  11. I have been farming an inactive for super long and it seems like he got thousands of millions of money and never goes down. Or is it that pimd will reward attackers even if victim does not have cash on them??
     
  12. That guy that swore at you ares threatened to get me silenced 
     
  13. PIMD rewards people even if they have no money.
     
  14. Dont worry. I reported
     
  15. The higher the stats get the more people whine due to you ruining their big scary tough guy Internet thing

    As for the cash it works in reverse too. They will lose less than you win if they have very little cash out. It's because money won and lost is based on your stats and a percentage of what your opponent has out at the time of hitting
     
  16. Hehehe Wayne got furious on returning money..... 
     
  17. I'm not furious when I'm blowing you kisses while taking your money ;)
     
  18. 


    Unless I get majorly farmed I don't mind. But I believe you said they get 200 mil removed? It depends on how much money you have.... Right now I usually get a couple mil taken away.... 
