Not unless you want to use it as a bludgeon point to bolster another argument. The PLEX market and the real market are only tangentially related at best. And if I remember right, it's price doesn't reflect Eve's inflation curve either, so it doesn't even have a direct link to monetary supply. PLEX is it's own little special crazy snowflake.Halyconnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-89968793853723646862014-07-31T18:13:04.653-05:002014-07-31T18:13:04.653-05:00Sorry, but you're not tricking me into a EULA/...Sorry, but you're not tricking me into a EULA/ToS violation :)NoizyGamerhttp://nosygamer.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-70727487508403886672014-07-31T18:09:44.826-05:002014-07-31T18:09:44.826-05:00It's almost like I intentionally did it that w...It's almost like I intentionally did it that way :)NoizyGamerhttp://nosygamer.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-84585454504342810132014-07-31T17:04:52.038-05:002014-07-31T17:04:52.038-05:00This is a good example of two different ideas jamm...This is a good example of two different ideas jammed into one incomplete post.Poetic Stanzielnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-79808836290416797642014-07-31T16:41:53.098-05:002014-07-31T16:41:53.098-05:00I will be interested to see how this exploit is de...I will be interested to see how this exploit is demarcated. It needs to not include <br /><br /><br />* suicide (or assisted suicide) for insurance payouts.<br />* taking advantage of change to build requirements introduced in a patch. eg building ships before patch to sell after patch.<br /><br />* cooperatively draining your own bounty. eg shooting your mates before being concorded.<br /><br /><br /><br />What do you feel is the definitive thing about what he did that makes it an exploit? <br /><br /><br />Personally I feel like CCP is just throwing a temper tantrum because they said that they were happy with their valuation logic and now they have been made to look like amateurs again.GavinRandomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-63873656511367690002014-07-31T08:55:42.581-05:002014-07-31T08:55:42.581-05:00How about choosing a basket of common items that h...How about choosing a basket of common items that have a large volume / net value in the Eve economy. Think of it has the equivalent of a basket of stocks that represent the NYSE (think it is called the S&P index) or the basket of items that governments use when they want to track inflation. I am thinking items as mundane as DCII's, LSE II's, EANM's, CargoHold Expanders, Invuln II's, etc, for high volume items, and then sprinkle in some T1 frigs, cruisers, and BS's,. If you really want to get ambitious, create a 2nd index that tracks a basket of T2 ships that represent a significant chunk of the economy (value X volume). <br /><br />Obviously, the larger the basket, the more work involved, but also a more accurate snapshot of how Crius is affecting the game. As an example, Invuln II's are down about 20% in sell price in Amarr in 7 days, while the input costs are up. The casual high sec manufacturer has seen his margins killed because some group, most likely the null sec industrial consortiums, are producing at vastly lower costs. Clearly, I can't nail the null sec costs down precisely, because even on Sisi, I have no access to goon or any null sec cartel station.Dinsdale Pirannhanoreply@blogger.com
