10 month`s ago i suggested the same idea , i feel that was long ago from then untill now so staff PLEASE FORGIVE me for re suggesting this idea i would just like it bump`t up incase this suggestion was forgotten and i would like to help move this game forward.

- At the price of 25 favor`s to retreive an dvd is in my mind aswell as many other`s i think a worthy price to be able to choose what dvd to grab back from the bin if more then one dvd is put in there ....

HERE`S MY LAST THREAD around 10 month`s ago-

http://www.prisonblock.com/forums/Decide-what-dvd-to-get-back-from-bootleg-bin-t42150-p1.html

The thing about the Bootleg Bin is that you're not obligated to pay to get your bootlegs back. So, if it's too expensive for you, why not just leave it in there?

i like the idea because like phoenix is one of the most commonly confiscated dvds. if that gets taken and you have 10 or 15 pirates in there as well, you're screwed for a day or 2 on training

i have no problem with paying 25 favor`s to get my protected dvd back, but it is annoying when i have more then one dvd in the bootleg bin and when i pay 25 favor`s and get the dvd i do not wish to get back i must then pay another 25 favors and so on untill i get the dvd i want , i think with the cost of paying this much in the first place to get a protected dvd back we should at least have the option on choosing what protected DVD we can get back

Yeah it does make sense that you are able to choose the DVD you get back if it is protected but since the protection is limited maybe you should add extra security that will be available to purchase so we don't lose certain dvds in the first place ....im not sure if it was suggested before but we do pay 100-250 favs to protect our amens maybe you add 5-10 slots to a cell that is purchasable to secure those amens in those slots ....offcourse the amens would have to be protected this way the game still makes money and the players still can be happy with the extra security of not losing specific dvds of importance

I think its better to leave it as it is, its a gamble, people should be a bit worried about taking in and out amens (especially for raiders lol) and with todays favor inflation 25 favs isnt much at all, whats 25 favs out of 1, 3 or even 5k favs?

edit: why? (i might add)

Variability - keeps wars (fightcell numbers) going up and down, not just the same... it messes peoples trainingcells up a bit, raises and lowers ICU buyouts etc. its needed

i think this change would incentivize players to spend favors; that would be good for the game. I don't know if its a difficult thing to code, if it is, that would weigh against it.

My answer to this is to not have 10-15 Pirates in the Bin. I realize that this is the currently popular method of Pirates gameplay, but this is not at all the intended use of those DVDs. If it were up to me, Pirates would only let you pop in one per hour.

Bootleg DVDs are supposed to carry a risk. Honestly, since someone else has to pay 100 Favors to grab your DVD, I still find the 25 Favor cost for a random DVD fair.

fucking 7 month`s later i want to make a complaint it has happened to me a lot now earlier i bought my protected dvd back from the bin with the only 50 favor`s i had on me, the first time i got my phoenix back so i thought hey i must retrieve the most recent dvd i lost in the bin back every time anyway i put my phoenix in i lost it yet again so i used the last of my 25 favs to re buy it back and i got a pirate dvd back instead .. i have used 100 favor`s n the past as well at once to get the dvd i wanted back be for, i think its an outrage to not be able to choose what dvd(PROTECTED) to get back for the cost of 25 favor`s shit really fuck`s me off

I can assure you, it's random, and does not care what order DVDs went in.

It's a shame that you lost so many DVDs, but that's the risk that they carry. It's why they're bootlegs (def.2).
