My Flex history below - check out the Boost and Custom Gear numbers, I have spent almost the same on Custom EQ as boosting. Be interesting to see what other agents have done.
I have spent over 500$ on GLB in the last year. Hell, I might be approaching 1000$ , I don't want to know. lol. I will not be spending any more $$ on Pee Wee and maybe this game unless there's a change to Custom EQ for 1 and done players.
I don't think Bort and staff are getting what our main argument should be.. and that's the inflated cost of 1 and done Pee Wee players. He should understand that our competitive nature will drive the demand for Custom EQ at our level. It's not a "choice" as they say, it's a necessity to create the best dot possible in 1 season.
Leagues with No boosting/ NO custom are not good for his business and are NOT practical. I have ZERO problem paying to play this game. The original idea to have a NO/NO Gold was to create noise so Bort would hear our requests and possibly make Pee Wee dotball a little cheaper.
Well, we did create noise... and maybe not the right way and Bort decided to NOT make it cheaper, but I find it hard to believe that a logical person would think the pricing structure for "competitive" Pee Wee is OK. Remember, Bort OK'd and approved the 3 tier Pee Wee system. Gold was created and an ultra competitive league was born with it. Did he not think that we would use every advantage possible to gain an edge?
IMO, Bort and staff are undervaluing the Pee Wee community. I understand this game is in Beta and they are probably working on other things that they deem more important. However, Pee Wee is the perfect place for new agents to get hooked and enter competitive games in their first season. It's also the perfect place to experiment with builds and learn the game. It doesn't make sense for it to be more expensive to field a competitive lower level team.
I am not asking for NO/NO leagues.. I'm asking for something simple like "rentable" 1 season Custom EQ at half the cost....with the option to buy permanently. There is absolutely NO harm in this type of custom EQ. I would like for Bort or any other GLB staff member to explain to me how this would negatively affect their business model? There is more harm when GLB loses agents, and the price of Pee Wee IS running off agents.

- 372410 (spent)
+ 266290 (retirement)
= 20380 (should match below)
Boglegmath says you have: 22290
So, if you want.. Post your history and also explain how you feel about Pee Wee pricing... and whether you plan on continuing to spend your $$ on competitive Pee Wee with the current pricing model.
Also, because I got 'hooked' on GLB - BECAUSE of Pee Wee.. i Have 9 long term players right now that i have been boosting every season.
****************************** Total Flex purchased ***************************************
22 agents posted their flex history so far... as of 9-20-2010
Total of 3,680,000 flex purchased.
3,680,000 divided by 20,000 ( let's just say that's the average flex package purchased) = 184
184 x $130 = $23,920
Doubtful that 20,000 is the average package purchased.. so Bort and staff have made even more $$ then 24K off of the agents in this thread.
