Pokemon Go

Too many Eevee's everywhere = non-excludable good = impossible to monetize.

Wut?

If there's a ton of something readily available for free, why the hell would people pay for it?

High supply of something, even with a decent demand = low prices...even more so if it's available free. Basic Econ.

Damn, really ya'll? It was an exaggerated example to illustrate easy ways to make money off the game. Instead of acknowledging the point you want to focus on the random pokemon he chose? There are a lot of them, which is why he chose it as his example, for dramatic effect.

Seemed to me he was being somewhat serious. If he was going for obvious sarcasm I would think he would go with pidgey/ratat

All his posts reek in this thread. I don't know why he's come on here and feels the need to fib about a pokemon game on Jazzfanz. It's legit weird, and hilarious. I don't disagree and was previously aware that this game can be monetized by enterprising individuals. This, also, has already been proven by you specifically.

Ftr, I'm not saying that everything LogGrad said was wrong. Player trading, pvp battles etc. and other things not discussed (hopefully a tweak to a turn based battle system, yay)) are on their way according to the developers. This is common knowledge and easily accessible.

Legendaries (Mewtwo, Mew, Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres) are not available to anyone and there have been no confirmed sightings, closed beta or otherwise, by anyone on the planet. I'm skeptical when a random dude with overly wordy post including statements about non-evolving pokemon that "further evolve" decides to claim that he and his son have two of the legendary birds.

First, you must not have been around long if you think wordy posts from me are somehow suspicious. Second, believe whatever you want. I added in my experience which is a bit unique since I got to participate in a closed beta that didn't have many players at all, and it changed quite a bit from that to the live game. And 3rd nearly everything I know about Pokémon is from this game. My kids played the card game and watched the shows. I never did. Other than what changes into what in the game (like the evee I evolved into a vaporeon today) I know all but nothing of what Pokémon does what, changes into what, or why. Sorry it makes you so hot under the collar that someone has a different experience from you that you felt it required a neg rep (is that even a thing anymore?). I feel no need to prove anything to you since you are obviously of the opinion I'm just a pathological liar or something you wouldn't believe it anyway.

But I hope you have fun catching all those eevees I must have been lying about. Enjoy!
 
Sorry if this is off-topic, but it seems to belong in this thread

If these folks are registered voters (which I doubt) I'd bet they'd vote for Trump.

When deputies arrived at the Arizona home, they found a barefoot 2-year-old who was wearing just a diaper and a T-shirt and trying to get inside, according to a news release.

“The child was red faced, sweaty, and dirty,” the release from the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office states.

Authorities found three dogs when they searched the San Tan Valley home, but they didn’t find the child’s parents, according to the release. Eventually, though, deputies located a telephone number for the man they thought was the child’s father.

“When they called and told him his child was found abandoned,” he replied, ‘Whatever’, and hung up on the deputies,” the release stated.

The boy’s parents, 27-year-old Brent Daley and Brianne Daley, 25, were arrested on charges of child endangerment and child neglect after the incident, which occurred late last month. The couple told authorities that they left the toddler alone while they were playing Pokémon Go, authorities say.

While I have no reason to think you are lying why not post a screen shot of your phone with the legendary pokemons you are talking about. That will make him shut up and proves you are right.

Every time I click on this thread my mind is blown. Are some of these simple little scribbles truly considered legendary? I definitely don't get it.
