[Obsolete] Diamond Price Conversion Discussion

[thematsjo]

Did anyone crunch the numbers for if prices in Diamonds match up with how things were before? I’ve just noticed that they force us to buy Diamonds in amounts that always leave Diamonds left over (presumably a strategy to entice more sales), does anyone know more?

So $40 gets us 2 fewer packs than it used to. $20 for 15 packs -> $40 for 30 packs, 4200 diamonds gets 25 packs + 3 packs + 250 diamonds. So sometimes you'll get more diamonds for the same amount of real money? Or the same amount of diamonds for less real money? Or more stuff for the same amount of diamonds? Or the same amount of stuff for fewer diamonds? Or sometimes all at once?

Because numbers matter:

best old price
49.99usd/40orb = 1.25usd/1orb

ideal conversion rate
6000d/50orb = 120d/1orb

best discount
17250d/150usd = 115d/1usd
1usd*120d/115d = 1.04usd = 1orb

2nd best
7700d/70usd = 110d/1usd
1usd*120d/110d = 1.09usd = 1orb

last discount
4200d/40usd = 105d/usd
1usd*120d/105d = 1.14usd = 1orb

new normal price
700d/7usd = 100d/1usd
1usd*120d/100d = 1.20usd = 1orb

hastag crunched?
