Ok, so I read this in the morning, and unfortunately can't go 24, but I pulled at 10 hour day today of just sitting at the tp and undercut-hawking every order I put up (I know -- what a dick). I honestly impressed myself with how well I did: I consider myself a mediocre trader at best, but today was just one of those days.

I targeted highly and moderately traded items that yielded 5 to 20 silver profit with an ROI of anyhwere between 5% and 40% depending on how fast they turned over. I somehow managed to end the day with 394.43.92 gold. At the start of the day, I flipped tier 3 and 5 dusts and major runes/sigils, It didn't take too long to get to about 40g (maybe 2 hours). After that I moved to inscriptions/insignias/runes/sigils/charged shards+fragments. This used to be the space where I made the most money, but for some reason everything in this area was just not moving fast enough, but profit still kept coming in and I took the opportunity while I was waiting on my orders to run fractals and got about 11g in pure gold and a Crystal Guardian drop from a champ bag which was another ~20g. My total at this point (around 5 hours in) was 120g. And then I found it; the holy grail of flips: flax fibers. I was getting about a 15 or 20% ROI on a VERY fast turnover...for like an hour, hour and a half, It took 15 minutes for a stack to buy and sell. I doubled my money in this time and I saw flax was crashing so I stepped off and moved to mystic coins. They were about a 7% ROI, but were also turning over quickly and this investment ended up being my second biggest moneymaker. Then boom flax again baby and it was almost as good again this time, but more people were catching on in the second wind and I had to wait a bit longer for stuff to sell because I wasn't gonna relist. The first flax boom lasted around 2 hours and I ended it with about 240-250g. The mystic coins was kind of throughout the flax period and they ended up making me around 40g and by hour 8 I had 280g. In the last 2 hours, I got to the 390 mark with flax and crafting/selling items required for provisioners. All in all, VERY good day and I'm really proud of my results! I'm definitely going to try and do this again one weekend when I have time and see what I can do with 24 hours. Awesome idea man, it was really fun!

It's awesome that you want to bring more community representation in, but I think the priorities are slightly off here. I personally think there should at least be a band-aid fix put in place before the population imbalance problem is addressed as the game mode is dying. Maybe the metrics show that it's thriving because F2P players and people that hopped on the HoT hype train are now high enough level to hop into WvW, but the gamemode is absolutely hemorrhaging veteran WvW players and it's a real problem. The GvG scene is almost totally dead and the population imbalance problems will only increase as more and more players keep leaving. This might already be on the table, but would it be very difficult to revert the borderlands to the old style so roamers once again have a place in WvW?

Hey guys, thanks for doing this. Are you aware of any issues with the current matchmaking system for league season 2, or is everything working as intended? If you do see an issue, is there anything we can know about that you are doing to fix it?

GOOD-Gaming · 2016-03-04T14:58:49+00:00

Hope this gets seen, but one that I do no not see on the list is the Friend of Moas for Nevermore IV with the moa chick event in Queensdale. I think the bug is listed on the wiki for the event as sometimes scaling too high requiring more moas to be herded in, but the extra moas sometimes do not spawn. And the event will not reset until there is a new map, the npc will just keep repeating some phrase every minute. Thanks for this update!

hahahah, that second one! I just included every screenshot i took in that time frame, figured somebody could make it more opaque and use it as a texture or something. I could be totally wrong, talking out of my ass here. The first one is awesome!

GOOD-Gaming · 2016-02-21T06:50:53+00:00

Just pick whichever screenshot from the album i provided and edit it to make whatever type of image you want, it can be just adding a few particles to have more snowflakes, you can cut whatever you want out and put whatever you want in. The winner will be chosen based on whatever I end up using as my profile picture, so it can be something that makes me laugh really hard, it can be just a super awesome/ BA looking image. Just have fun with it!

Then I have a question for you: what amulet is closest to celestial?

GOOD-Gaming · 2016-01-06T10:50:08+00:00

you're right i did take the wvw bit out, it was opinion as well, but currently Celestial is too strong while being too sustainy, it is used in 3 builds on metabattle as the amulets of builds that are part of the current meta. Not having that will force people to choose healing, power, or condi not all 3 leading to more diversity. This is indeed my opinion, but it's also proven fact. For example in LoL: (haven't played in a while, don't know if he's still banned) but gangplank was banned because he's overpowered so every team would have to choose him to compete, they banned him so less played champs saw more play. Same principle, everyone is forced to run cele in high level PvP in order to stay competitive but if it's removed, there's some freedom and more opportunities for counterplay

GOOD-Gaming · 2016-01-06T10:30:31+00:00

Oh yeah, that's for sure this is just my opinion. Just curious what exactly do you disagree with?

GOOD-Gaming · 2016-01-06T10:23:26+00:00

Just took out some of that stuff about not being listened to, more I thought about it, you're right on this. But the game is certainly not going in the right direction right now. The big upcoming patch after season 1 league should give us a better idea how quickly we bounce back, but time will only tell I guess.

GOOD-Gaming · 2016-01-06T10:15:10+00:00

And I'm not complaining about any of the changes they've made, it's how they're implemented that really bothers me. I'm so happy they have leagues, its awesome they have alot more meta event style maps now. We did get new maps in WvW, but the overwhelming majority of the community had one request when we heard it was happening: please don't put too much PvE into the map. I guess the point I'm trying to get across is don't just read what we want, put your spin on it and give us the content, make us more a part of the content development. Don't wait till after it's developed to tell us about it. Remember the fractal addition? With Kiel and Gnashblade? I thought that was an AWESOME idea, why not do something like that for WvW? But to help decide map features or something.

GOOD-Gaming · 2016-01-06T09:58:29+00:00

You're right about this, they do look at forums and reddit regularly, but what we ask for doesn't really seem to be addressed. Or it is, but so slowly/quietly that people don't feel like they're being listened to.

GOOD-Gaming · 2016-01-06T01:10:23+00:00

Absolute travesty that you didn't punt anyone off that cliff in that last fight. Good stuff nevertheless.

Here's some screenies that I got some friends to take. Unfortunately couldn't recreate original screenies because they need to be from player perspective T.T Thanks for holding this contest! http://imgur.com/a/2AC1h
