there is a forum bug in don't see the application of phoenix1211

Just FYI I've almost gotten oetg-v back up & running. Need to work out some kinks that's making it difficult to use actives etc

Posting here since Team Darkness has opted not to horde a not-terrible pvp server for ourselves. Eventually oetg-v's AIvAI tool should be operational again too; there's something broken in the AI's search algo atm

Given the prospect of Darkness providing a useable testing area (hopefully), I'll be so kind to share a coupon simulator with you. Obv, inelement allowed totals and percentage will be calculated for time given the basis I worked on (for total points this is irrelevant though and its easy enough to change this yourselves) and this is not the version that I myself use and you cannot edit it (this is for your own good really, dont want everyone to see your vault).
Instead, while being logged into a gmail-account you click on File -> Make a copy   to get an editable copy.
Put the cards you want in VaultCostCalculator, the cards will automatically be transferred to the three sheets for simulated coupons. You can then see the total costs in the respective sheets.

Enough talk, here is the link to the spreadsheet

Some copypasting errors may have occured, please point them out!

However, no you are not allowed to complain about the bg color being a little inconsistent due to copypasting!

Some of the cheaper cards (Cat, Deathstalker, etc.) don't have discounts on them. Don't know why this would be practical, but I feel like it's worth it to point this out. (I mean, who knows? Someone might want free Shields...)

2.3.1. Vault Discounts

Vault discounts may be chosen from one of the three discount groups available. Each group applies a different amount of  discount and affects different cards that can be bought from the market. The discount choice must be made in the first week of vault building. This choice is made by posting in your secret section in a response to the vault building topic created by the WMs, or by PM if your secret section is not yet secret.

Biologist - All Creatures cost 10 less points
Engineer - All Permanents cost 15 less points
Doctor - All Spells cost 5 less points

NOTE: Shards and cards costing below 45 are not included in these bucket groups, and do not have a discount applied to them!

Thems the rules. I didnt make them (it does make sense on the very cheap cards however)

[InsignificantWeeaboo]

That's not exactly what I meant. Colossal Dragons, which are supposed to be only 15 points with the Biologist Discount are 25 on the tool. This is the same for some other extremely cheap cards, too.

EDIT: So I can't read.

Any card under 45 cost does not give the discount
Colossal Dragon costs 25
Therefore will not receive the discount

Also, you'll want to make sure to edit the Q55's to your element and adjust the "black on black" value in cell V47 to 32,000 - <team cost in auction> = pts-avail-for-vaultbuilding. (Pretty handy having this, much appreciated kaempfer!)

[ARTHANASIOS]

While I like the market system, it seems to be much more Google Docs heavy than the previous 1-1 system. It is obvious that at least our current War Masters have problems with it without the help of the admins. I wonder if we should either go back to the previous 1-1 system or find an entirely new system in order to avoid such situations in the future...

EDIT: if this is in the wrong topic, please move it in the correct one.
