So Menorah was not officially released? :shock:

"Everyone had opportunity to claim them". What if 1Day Sale or Weekend Sale and a lot of folks were not around and didnt have the opportunity to grab them and no advance notice? :D

Limited items as in just around 10 or x-quantities for grabs? Maybe put them in AH (coins and yc) but we should be notified how many pcs to be auctioned? For example hat 1/100 hh 2/10.

That leaves a lot of items up for grabs, there were a lot of items that people didn't have the opportunity to get. :)


the item was officially released previously = All the released items from the beginning of the game until now.

everyone had the opportunity to get it = The players who played when the items were released. As opposed to unreleased items that were discussed earlier:

We included some hacked items that were rare and valuable as we felt it was unfair that regular players never had the same opportunity to get them.


That's how I understood it.

That is how I understand it also. And anyone who differs with that has ulterior motives for doing so; whether it be their "desire to save Yo economy" or their own greed.

The way that it is explained the new themes and what not remind me of the old days. Themes were not brought and taken out right away, they just came up with some good quality items that stayed in the stores for a while. It's how it should be, don't you all agree? It sounds exciting :)

I thought his answers were pretty clear and concise. They're going to be releasing more unreleased items! :D

Bear in mind that it only applies to old items and collectibles. You can only apply the two conditions to old items and collectibles. Collectibles are easy to determine, but what classifies as an old item? Item's made in 2013? An item as soon as it leaves stores gets classified as old?

Will old items and collectibles be re-released?
Gary: If the item was officially released previously and everyone had the opportunity to get it, then no. We know item rarity and value is very important to the players, and we respect that.


As for the hacked items we can expect more :D
Should we expect more “unreleased” items to be released?
Gary: Most likely. They were very well received, so we see no reason not to at this point.

Gary's answer when applied to a conditional statement results if the following:

if (Was the item officially previously released? = Yes ) & ("Did everyone have the opportunity to get it?" = Yes ) then
_______The item won't be re-released
else
_______The item will possibly be re-released
end if

What this means is that both conditions have to have an answer of Yes in order for Gary's answer to be true.
Collectibles were officially released, but did everyone get the opportunity to own one?


Pete - Did you learn programming in the days of FORTRAN or PASCAL? Just curious... :D I did and I feel I recognize a kindred spirit.. :D Or it could be that I am hallucinating... :D
