How about a way to bank some moves during the week for those who work and can't use all their moves every day so they could use them on their day off

Rick, I am not trying to be rude (humor baby) but it was decided a few years ago that a commitment to PTW was required and that included either finding a way to play at work or to quit your job. It really is the only way to keep the game pure.

Rick sounds like you need to get a lap top so you can play while away from home. What do you do drive truck?

I've lost moves quite a bit this month

it happens...if we were able to bank moves, then buying moves would seem kinda pointless

Rick, you need to get your priorites in order. Go to your boss and tell them that it's not that important that someone be able to take a shower in the morning if their water goes out (unless it's someone you may have to smell for the rest of the day :mrgreen: ). You need to get your pirating in! I'm sure that's going to go over well.
Seriously though, I do think you have a good point. Even I'd like a day off from this and would like to get my moves back when I do. Maybe when the new game comes out management will think of a fair way to let people have a day off without it hurting them too much.

Saving moves could lead to abuse very fast, a person could not use a single move for a week then use them all in one day and park next a friend or their other account to give away what they earned using so many moves at once. It would also cause people to just play until they got their upgrade and spent all their money then save up enough moves for their next upgrade.

i understand the problem with saving moves, but I also understand Rick, cause I Was in the same boat last year and previous as I travel for work, and also on the road a lot during the day, the only reason I am playing so much right now is that I am UNEMPLOYED (and broke) , but an idea...
what if we could bank moves we find on the islands and in pearls? (with a limit? )

ally's idea sounds good to me. It would mean players could farm for moves when they did have time, but wouldn't be able to just login, set aside their daily moves, and logout. It's something they would have to work for. Only problem then is that people will be farming more.

So Rick you are the one that goes out and cuts the H2O off for widows and poor people. You really are a pirate.
