Somebody else had to bring this up but I didn't see it. I saw the thread about lowering the cost of Flex Points but I disagree with that. The price is really cheap actually. I've been playing more online games lately and the prices on here are significantly lower than just about every other game I've played.
What I'd like to see is more ways to get Flex Points. I get that the point is to get people to spend money, which I'm willing to do to a certain extent. I think it would be nice to have a list of achievements (win your first ring, win x number of trophies, etc.) that give you Flex Points. It might be good to have methods of earning Flex Points by signing up for certain websites or buying stuff from certain companies the way you can with Facebook Credits in all the Facebook games. If I'm going to send someone flowers from FTD or something, it would be nice to be able to get Flex Points in this game at the same time. The amount of Flex Points for this kind of stuff doesn't have to be huge. I wouldn't expect 500 Flex Points for getting a trophy or anything like that. There are ways to set up stuff like this so there are different tiers that make sure everything is reasonable. I think that would give people an incentive to play the game for extended periods of time. The people who spend money should have an advantage, but not having any free Flex Points limits the number of people who'll play because there are a lot of people that refuse to pay for online games so it seems like it would be a good business move and more fun for everybody if you set up a variety of ways to get Flex Points.
