T'was trial and error.

I'll admit I don't really understand your maths here, how you came up with the numbers and such, but some of it seems extremely expensive based on what I've seen in trades and comparing Budgie's guide. I'm still semi-new around here so I could be totally off, but just from what I've seen in trading and such I'm not sure a constant increase based on months since release is going to be very accurate across the board. While personal value will always vary, there are too many different variables (including how many people actually collected them in the beginning and just how 'popular' a creature is independent of actual cost) to price according to something like months passed.

That said, hey I could be totally wrong and maybe this is way more accurate than I think. I applaud all the work you've put into this though, it must have taken forever!

(And there is the issue of 'pricing' being totally out of control given how much CC actually costs in real money, 5k CC costs $45 in real money so pricing anything at 20k+CC is just kind of ridiculous, but from what I've seen talked about around here that seems to have been an ongoing issue with CC values for awhile now and I understand a user-built pricing guide can't do anything about that.)

@heatherm19 That's okay! I'll try to explain my thought process on this...I divided the value Budgie has listed for a creature and divided it on how many months since the creature has been released/re-release showing me an estimate of how much the creatures value has increased per month. This doesn't apply to current available creatures. Generally, when a creature re-releases it'll keep it's increment value and go based on how much time has past since the new re-release date. But I added a column specifically for in cases of values changing that way I can put in the new estimated value and log the date of the change in value and the increment value will either decrease or increase based off that.

But yes, I am aware that there's far more variables to consider than just time which is why this is just to be used as a reference, and I am sure with more information given by other users it'll help bring the values more to a "reasonable" value considering there has been a loss of time since Budgie went inactive, so it's hard to determine where creatures are valued now. This is simply a new starting point to work off of, and if it flops...it flops!

hi - i'm all for an updated list, but the increments are too much. this makes the values way over-inflated and unreachable for almost everyone.

i really am not sure how else to work this out, but i'm not about to go from 3.5-4.5k CC to 9050CC for an Amma. same for the others. its just not possible. I dont have that much IRL money to spend for pretty pixels.
