Citizens can now win unique prizes with the new Power Spin. Here is what you need to know about it:

General Info
- Every citizen gets ONE FREE SPIN per day
- For 1 Gold you can spin again. Each following spin in that day will cost +0.1 more than the previous one.
- Winning a Jackpot unlocks the next available Jackpot
- The Jackpot progress is reset at the beginning of each day (00:00 eRepublik time)
- The Power Spin is available until the end of Day 2,231

Prizes
- +100 Energy House for 7 days
- 50% Damage Booster 10 min
- 100 Prestige Points
- Bazooka Booster
- 5 Winter Treats
- Energy Bar
- Spin again
- Jackpot

Jackpot Prizes
- Level 1: +100% Damage Booster for 24 hours
- Level 2: + 500 Energy Center valid for 7 days
- Level 3: 500 Gold

All prizes are instantly awarded and activated.

If you have an active 50% Damage Booster and you win another 50% Damage Booster, the available time will be extended accordingly. The same happens if you have an active 100% Damage Booster and you win another 100% Damage Booster.

Please note:

- If you have an active 50% Damage Booster, win the Jackpot and receive the 100% Damage Booster, the previously active 50% Damage Booster will no longer be active.

- If you have an active 100% Damage Booster and you claim a 50% Damage Booster, only the 100% one will be active but the timer of both boosters will be running. After the 100% Damage Booster’s time ends, the 50% Damage Booster will be active if it is still has available time.

In order to eliminate these unwanted scenarios, a future update will allow the manual activation of boosters.

you don't want to make players richer

it's like if i want to win 500 golds, i should spend a lot of gold on that twisting... + i even don't think so that somebody win that 500 gold... oh.. no, i think person who'll spend 200+ gold in one day on that roulette, will be able to win that gold but even in this case I'm not sure if he/she will win something...

Like somebody said... "New eRepublik Economy - rich becomes richer, poor becomes poorer"

A lot of peopling spending a lot of gold, getting boosters and bars, nothing else to see here. Move a long.

[Liam J. Gallagher]

- Spin again

Spin again is the middle finger of prizes it serves no purpose but to waste are time!

[Cry of the Banshee]

we don't now if the probability is the same for the 8 prices of the wheel..

 

1/8 for each? 1/100 for the jackpot?

 

so it's like a  scam...

[Releasethe Krakken]

i see that some items drop easier.  they probably loaded a database with 1000 entries one of which is the bonus 98% being the basically useless gifts.  belief me with these things do not  spend actual money  i will use my daily gold till it get to expensive.  you guys did notice that the price is incremented or is that reset at the start of the day.

[pedritomalo]

The possibility for the 500g jackpot (the only one worth it, from my point of view), should be 1/24, but the real chance of a jackpot is really slim, maybe even less than 1%, shouldn`t they put a warning or something that tells you that the chance of a jackpot is nearly null?

[Cry of the Banshee]

take a look here, another analysis :

[elfore]

the free spin ever are a booster?

 

I spent 11 gold on that and I do not kick or a jackpot

[tommot]

May i suggest something to the people who are complaining about loosing all their gold.

Never spend all that you have on these kind of things.

When you have gold you set a minimum that you don't use(as a reserve).

Next time(day or whatever) you don't spend any gold until you recovered at least half of what you spend the previous time.

 

In gambling a simple rule always applies: Never spend more then you gain!

[Sivanildo Walmor da Silva]

[Zordacz]

Why do you hide the fact that each prize has a different chance to be won? This is a scam to put a round wheel with evenly placed prizes (suggesting equal chances) and not warn your players about uneven probabilities.

[Marcos Arolia]

Uneven probabilities are to be expected as it is the same in RL despite how it appears.
