Question for kittycats developers

[Tad Carlucci]

Time for a little math.

It takes 300 boxes to obtain a Menagerie cat. (Sometimes a bit less, but that's the number Charm sent in yesterday to get one so I'm using it).

That means it takes 600 live cats being fed for a week to produce the box.

Which works out to 4200 cat-days.

A bowl of food feeds one cat for 30 days.

So, that 4200 cat-days is 140 bowls of food.

The best price is a 20-pack, which means you'll need 7 packs.

The price of a 20-pack is K$7450, so the total food cost is K$52,150.

But the price to purchase the cat was only K$15,000.

So a 'mass breeder', who has the boxes on hand, is programmed to lose AT LEAST K$37,150 to obtain the cat.

I say 'at least' because I'm ignoring the cost of obtaining those 600 cats in the first place. And we're ignoring the time (a non-monetary cost).

But let's make it 'fair' an allow anyone to purchase a menagerie cat ...

I submit a 'fair' rule would include the following rules ...

1) Limit one menagerie cat purchase per week,

2) The price, in bonus K$ (which is a dumb name, it means you paid L$ for those K$) be raised to at least K$52,150

That way, those of you who don't want to produce the 300 boxes yourselves, can simply spend K$ purchased with L$.
