Credits Are Down!

**Tampa** · 03-20-2006, 11:08 AM

All the game pay-offs have bee reduced from 25% to 50%! Music mixing is not 25 credits and a 2nd place 240,000 firework game is now 1,300 total! I'm not sure about the jungle cruise game, but pirates is now at 100 credits for a level 3 win.

LOL - it was too good to last!!!

We sure did get spoiled though didn't we!!!

Oh well... At least this will make the more expensive stuff more difficult to obtain for the average player...

Looks like I need to put my Monkeys back to work!!!

I was just complaining about the same thing! For those of us (me)

who haven't mastered many games yet, that little bit of credit being taken away hurts a LOT! I was not happy after winning Pirates to only get 100 credits!

Oh well, I do have some good news: I got my personal best this morning in fireworks, I only finished 4th, but got 221,000 points! I was very happy with that!

I think the credit amount was 750 for getting more than 200 grand & maybe 400 for getting in the 5th level for the 1st time (it was with my eeyore kid).

That's awesome Summer!!!!

Keep practicing and you will get to 240,000 in no time!!!

BTW - Jungle Cruise is still 20 credits per cruise

**NewKidaye** · 03-20-2006, 06:06 PM

OK now they only give: 350 for getting over 20,000 and 300 for making it for lv5

wasn't it more than that initially? Before the price increases?

You know it was not going to last!
I loved while it was there... Oh and to play your tune you now only get 25 but that is up 5 from the origional 20 for playing your tune!

At least we had it to build our credits for the bat magic dude!

I still don't understand the rationale with the scoring on Fireworks. It seems that if they are going to give a premium for getting 240,000 then the first place winners ought to get that too. That you end up with 500 more credits for coming in second is just insane.

Now if I was designing the credits I'd give everyone a certain number of credits for completing a level and moving on to the next level. The higher the level the higher the credits. Then at the end First, Second, and Third place could get some other kind of winnings. But the best prize should go to first place. It keeps everybody moving to their best instead of stopping as soon as they get 240,000 and hoping the other ppl pass them.

I used to only get 10 for playing a tune and 10 for creating. I am still happy with 25.

Vmk Does Not Give Out Enough Credits As It Is. What I Think Is That They Should Keep The Credits The Way They Are And Make More Games. Thats My Opinion.
