    Thumbs down Coin Earning Quantum Too Large

    So, initially I thought it's the beta-testing,
    thus we only have 3 options of Earning Coins,
    namely:

    2 minutes
    2 hours
    8 hours

    Well, it's been weeks and
    these 3 options are insufficient and
    the quantum totally illogical for those
    who don't spend their lives sitting next to their device tapping every 2 mins!

    At Level 30, I'm earning:
    680 every 2 minutes
    5,200 every 2 HOURS (!)
    10,400 every 10 HOURS (!)

    Thus, if I don't do the 2 minute thing,
    I'm at a HUGE disadvantage
    when it comes to Coin Earning
    compared to those who can!

    Come on...
    Do the math...
    It's really blatantly obvious...

    Yeah even if I have time .. I find it boring to be in game tapping every 2 min they should add maybe a 30 min or one hour one that earns enough

    Exactly!
    3 hours, 4 hours, etc.

    As in Bakery Story,
    we bake according to the time around our lifes,
    and not vice-versa.

    Contrary to popular belief,
    our lifes do not revolve around TL games :P

    I completely agree! Granted, we should expect to earn more on short term than long term, but not the huge difference in this game! Collecting 680 coins every 2 mins, for 2 hrs earns 40800 coins! Compared to 5200 doing the 2 hr job, that's ridiculous! You would have to do the 2 hr job eight times, taking 16 hrs to earn 40800!

    Very True.

    Short term jobs/recipes/buildings/pets/etc
    should be expected to generate more income,
    but not this large of a quantum difference O_O

    Ok.

    I've decided that if this coin quantum remains,
    I can't stay in this game much longer.

    There's too huge a gap between the coin earnings.

    It's totally unbalanced
    and seemingly geared toward those
    who can afford the time to tap every 2 mins!

    10 hours? I thought it was 8 or have they changed it?

    But I do agree it's silly to have twice the amount for the 8/10 hour interval from the 2 hour one. I could just do the 2 hour interval for 8/10 hours and earn more.

    It would be nice to see more time options, like 30 minutes or 4 hours.

    When I'm busy I just do the 2 interval time periods and when I'm actively playing the game I do 2 minutes.

    I think it's ridiculous how you can earn, say 200 coins in a minute, and 1000 coins in an hour.
    Why not do 200 X 60 minutes? It doesn't seem correct to wait an hour and only earn 1000 coins when in a minute you could be earning 200 coins. After an hour of 200 coins, you'd end up with 12,000 coins. Why isn't that the same for an hour? Same for the 4 hours.

    EXACTLY.

    The advantage to those who could actively play
    every 2 mins is too huge for my comfort.

    Call me childish, but I like the play field to be more even.

    I don't really see the problem with it simply because how could anyone possibly sit there and click every two minutes? Even if there are a few people that devoted, more power to em. They've definitely earned their fake money with all that dedication. Its a game, not a race. While it would be nice to give us another option or two I don't see sound reason to be up in arms that someone might be earning coins faster than you.

    My strategy is while I'm playing or redecorating click the 2 mins and once I'm done I go for the 2 hour option. Never ever the 8 because chances are I'll be back before 8 hours so going that route would be silly for me when 2 2hour jobs equal one 8.
