You still don't age in the off season.

I have no clue what MadCow is talking about tbh, decline starts at age 401

So wont 400 day old dots get kinda screwed? Wont they be converted to 280 day olds just like the 440s? Doesn't that lose them a whole season of training?

And GLB continues it's decline.

I don't think the amount of $$ a person has spent should merit bashing...especially from an "Admin". Big spenders or little spenders, they all make GLB go.

A lot of people are trying to grasp everything in the first couple hours. The last thing needed is to take the wrong approach towards them. When the numerous threads about "What can we do to increase membership" pop up...these are the types of things that discourage people from sticking around or joining


Personally, I don't think this is the decline of GLB. I actually think it will make the game a bit more enjoyable to those that dread the first half dozen seasons of dot-building. Hitting the PRO circuit in 6 seasons will enable people to start focusing more time developing their dots earlier; they won't have the luxury of waiting around.


FEEEEEEEEEEELINGS.... NOTHING MORE THAN FEEEEEEEELINGS.




its a game, stop being a pussy.

The only thing I can see as problematic in here is that a player who was properly started on day 40 or 41 before is now not "in line" with the new leveling system.

Take Madcow's example. His player will be aged somewhere between 200 and 240 under the new system, which means his decline is going to be funky (will start on day 27 or something), but everyone will be on the same page with that and it shouldn't provide an advantage or disadvantage at all.


this is what im going by

I still don't understand, tbh. But isn't that example only referring to old dots being converted to the new system and not new dots being created?

He's talking about the conversion process, not how things will be with newly created players.

The conversion is a one time deal.

Well I'm assuming by end of season they'll be 64ish right? That would be 64000 XP which would equate to approximately 227 days old in new system so they'd be converted to that age.


so existing dots "new" age will be determined by their current level?

I made it to page 9 of this thread, so if already answered I apologize.

But if the new age will be determined by the players current level at the time of conversion, will the really old, never once boosted dots turn into really young dots?

Not determined by level. Determined by the amount of XP the dot should (if fully boosted) have accumulated by its current age

So how does the conversion account for boosting pre-rollover of the first off-season for a dot? Will my dots who will finish this season at level 15 w/800 xp suddenly become older than the ones who finish at level 14 because they didn't boost?

Yeah, it's not by how much XP a dot actually has. It's by how much XP a 'fully boosted, always got max XP' would have by that age.

Edit: let me try to dig through this thread to see if I can find a good quote for you
