Purchase additional visits to oracle https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=27287.msg346838#msg346838

One of my favorite parts of elementsthegame is spinning that wheel at the oracle.  I like watching it rotate around and around, the anticipation of wondering where it will land.  I enjoy reading my fortune.  And constructing a counter to the false god is usually quite a hoot (actually i usually just use one of majofa's decks but in theory...)

Anyways, once a day is just not enough for me.  So i was thinking what if you get one spin for free each day (as it is now) but then you can pay for additional spins.  100 for second spin, 200 for third, and so on (either doubling each time or incrementing by 100 whatever seems more appropriate)?

100 is too cheap, i would say at least 500, maybe more, and have it double each time

I think maybe we can purchase a higher chance of getting a card/pet but maybe not more oracle spins since they do give nymphs/rare cards.

I am against this and would be quite surprised if it ever got implemented. Let's review why this shouldn't happen:

* Nymphs are super rare on purpose
* FG roulette is important to strategizing/deck-building against AI6
* Unlimited pets? No fun.
* More than one fortune a day? Doesn't fit thematically.

I enjoy the Oracle as well, but too much of it and the novelty would wear off quite quickly.

Seconded.
Though lots and lots of pets would be fun trollz.

Increased visits to the oracale -> more nymphs -> value of nymphs decreases.
And if the value of nymphs decreases, players that chose a nymph for a tourney prize will be cheated.
I have to say no.
Somehow still around, somewhat

You can´t give bribe money ( :electrum) to an oracle, which gives  :electrum to you.
That´s so ridiculous as the try to buy a 1$ note with a 1$ note.
Respectable oracles (if existing) are unbribable.
