I see the pay outs were changed on the schooling too, also the cost of school :mad3: I sold a bunch of glitter to get 5 million to pay for the SIKJEEP course. Any other non-posted changes about the schooling?

So is his posts about the schooling false? I have completed it, and it wasnt what he posted.

I just signed up for the SIKJEEP class and it didnt cost the 5000000 like is posted either, so I am wondering if the payouts are going to be the same.

I just finished course designing and only got 2500 pt. for each stat.......that kinda sucks, since I signed on for more money to gain better stats.:(
I probably would have been better off not going to school and using that money/glitter directly on my stats.

Agreed. I completed Apprentice somethingoranother and was supposed to get 800 each stat according to TT's posts, but much to my suprise, I got 2400 each stat. When I paid $1.5M it was 800 each stat. Should I be bitching and demand I get what I 'paid' for?

oh i'm in on this argument, cause i just finished the course designer school. I paid for 10k speed not 2600 speed.

i don't have a problem with the changes..at least give the people who were already enrolled get the payout for what they signed up for,,don't change it after they paid money and get the shaft..

01-21-2009, 11:26 AM
Ok all, this was a mistake. Look at the rest of them, schools do not pay out glitter. The stat payouts were also way to high. If you are not happy send me a message in game and I will take you out of that school and refund your money. When you see something that looks to good to be true it probably is.

01-21-2009, 11:54 AM
OK .. I am in the same boat as the rest of them. I still have something like 10 days left of the Sikjeep school. Unlike the rest of them, I actually had to work up to the $5 million and then drop it all on the school. I paid that much to get the benefits shown on TT's help post.

Papee ... is there ANY way to "grandfather" all of us who are CURRENTLY enrolled in the course to get the benefits we signed up for? I am not whining, but I feel it is only a fair transaction to get what I signed up for - not something that changed as I was already enrolled. The money - yea, that's important to me - but if I get what I signed up for - then that's a fair trade (I knew what I wanted and paid for it).

Please don't change the rules/benefits half way through the course. If the stats were too high - change them for the new enrollee's, just not for the guys already in the course. Thank you.

Another thing ... can you create a link (similar to in the JOBS link) that will allow us to see the schools, and what the payouts are, enrollment fees, etc while still enrolled in a current school?
The only time they are visible are just when you complete a school. It would be nice just to see what we're gonna get in a comparison type format. Thanks again.

I am being "fair", I'm returning your money. The school was put in before I could proof it. It should never have been there with those payouts.
TT takes a lot of time putting together his game help and it is a very good post to go by for the game. I am not responsible for misinformation in those posts because of adjustments I have to make in the game. Please use TT post as a game reference not game stats. I may adjust things from time to time and he may miss an update. There are not many that made it in this school before I caught the problem BTW.

PS. schools will now have to be done in order.

chinpokumon
01-21-2009, 12:29 PM
OK ... I guess that is a fair situation. I agree with the schools being done in order, luckily ... I thought that was what we were supposed to do, so I took them all in order anyhow.

As I asked before - can you then please post somewhere (a link in the SCHOOLS section would make the most sense) a list of the schools, what you get, enrollments, etc - so we can all use it as a guide? I agree that TT put tons of time into his HELP section, and it's a great benefit - but I'd like to see the true guide available somewhere. Thanks.

Do I need to message you for the refund, are you just going to put it in my saving's account - just please dont drop it in my wealth so I can get mugged and lose it before I sign on the next time! hahahaa

Thanks Papee ... you've built up a great game - even though it has some rocky sections.

01-21-2009, 12:57 PM
Thanks, just keep in mind. If I didn't make an announcement in game or it was not posted by me, I am not responsible. I answer many game related questions in game. I have no control over what is posted on this forum and for the most part, I don't have the time to read through the threads here. If there is a question about something get it directly from me. I don't give advise on how to play the game or sell game items so please none of that. I will help you with any problem you may be having.

So, I am enrolled in Course Designer right now, and I know there were one or two I skipped ahead of t get to it. Do I have to be taken out of it now, or will I just have to take the first one in line after I finish this one? I don't want to lose the days I have into it... I don't care much about the cost. I have millions in the bank. :)

So, to confirm:

1) For those of us enrolled in the school for the 5million, will we or won't we get the original stats as posted by TeutonicTxn once we complete the school?

2) If we opt out of the school, we have to start over at the lowest level school we haven't completed, correct?

TEEEJ
01-21-2009, 04:05 PM
:eek:

I'm in the Sik course...in the beginning, no one said anything about doing them in order, even when it was asked, we were told we DIDN'T need to do them in order....

So, now, the courses we already took are cheaper, and, their payout is more....so, taking a lower level course might be a better deal than the prior choices anyway.

I figure that if the cost benefit ratio has been improved, really, its a better deal in the long run....we'll get more stats for less $.

you asked my buddy the same thing,,we all saw it,,i guess everyone was mistaken and thought it was cool to pay 5 mil for class that gave you 2600 pay out..come awn.
though you kinda made it up to me with some glit,,it was still only 3mil worth of glit and a class that cost 5mill wich i still should have gotten more glit,,but it wanst up for debate and i was happy to get anything at all..but your view on this is old..it was there,,I cant believe you never saw it,,or are just taking this stance for whatever reason..I started the game in dec and it had been there since,,how could you not have seen it..:shaking:

Nowhere in THE GAME does it (nor did it ever) list what the schools or jobs pay. TT DID have posted in his thread what others had reported that it payed... However TT just a helpful player, not a staff member...
