fify

I don't think the expansion flopped that much... if you consider that 60% of those that bought MotU bought the lowest version of Shadowfail it's still probably earning money.

now bigby is another matter... they have the stats for that and know that it failed completely and they know why : it's due to the castrated stone.
the stats probably show good numbers in the first few hours, and then  once it was known that the stone had it's balls pulled off the stats shows that the sales drops dramatically.

I dunno if that 60% number is right man.  I literally only know one person that bought it (and yeah he bought the cheapo version).

I think that the expansion might have "broken even" and they are needing profit numbers to jump up or there won't be more.

That is my guess at least.  Plus the Otto's have a decent chance of convincing you to grab 2 point bundles so you can buy the boxes and have enough for when the expansion hits the turbine store.
  

where's the cheese dip?

Well I pulled it from my ass.

As for the expansion it was supposed to hit the store a month or so after the release date...
We are well past the due date, so it's in the Store.

Never seen Ottos out during bonus points.  That's a nice change.  Not sure I'll be TR'ing much for the next few weeks though if Mabar is coming with +6 tomes at the top level.

End of the third fiscal quarter. Gotta bump up the sales figures.

Jeebus that was quick....

How long since we had Otto's in store?
1-2 months?

I'm quite tempted to buy one, not sure.

It will continue that way until it eventually becomes a regular item in the store, with periodic discounts and all.

Hoping so.  Otherwise, people on servers get greedy with box prices.  When gone from store for 3-4 months, people start asking for crazy premiums for a box, thinking most people have used their supply up.  As someone who gets his boxes from trading gear rather than buying points, it's fucking annoying.
