GLITTERFX Releases as 'UNLIMITED'.

This morning at **11.30am GMT** 42 came on invisible and put 'Protect Activation' on. This got many users including me thinking that he was going to release more GLITTERFX powers , and I'm sure you would have thought that too ...

WRONG!

Why? Because this power is now UNLIMITED ...!

GLITTERFX costs 250 xats in stores.

Here are some things to know about the power ...

. The power reached 2800 - 3000 xats on Trade due to the constant high demand! (same as when TREEFX was released)
. Price then dropped down to 2500 - 2600 xats when not many people were buying the power due to how expensive it became.
. When the power became unlimited , no annoncement was made within the first few minutes , so price was still high at 1000 - 1500 xats .
. A scroller was set on the Trade chat announcing the release , and so the price had dropped rapidly down to 250 - 300 xats .
. Everything has now settled down , with the price being 240 - 245 xats!


So , that's everything you need to fully know about this power! For more details on function and demand , please check our previous GLITTERFX post!

Be sure to leave a comment telling me your thoughts on the new power!

Power 208 , 'GLITTERFX' Releases!

At around **5.25pm GMT** Mihay came on xat_test and had announced that @twitter was updated , so everyone went to check ;

 
Around 10 minutes later , the power had released !

NOTE: No information was passed on from this power and the release after the post above , so nobody knows whether it is LIMITED or UNLIMITED .

x500 GLITTERFX released costing 250 xats

Looking at first impressions, this basically looks like the BURNINGHEART power but in a blue version! Another impression is that it looks to be a Christmas themed power , but I don't think it is!

UPDATE: SOLD OUT! (5.42pm)
The release took around 10 minutes until the power became unavailable , with many users being able to buy themselves around 3 - 4 of the power. It was 1 per user every 4 minutes in case you couldn't buy one for those reasons!

Perhaps because of it's appearance and nobody knows of it's future , the price has rapidly increased and is now currently 700 - 850 xats on Trade , and could most likely increase in price even more...!

Here was what was happening on the room WEIRD TRIBE. (6.35pm)

Now , we may know about the release that's just gone ahead , but what about the Power FUNCTION? We've not done a release before a function , but anyways ...

Hence the name , 'GlitterFX' , this is another power that gives us special effects . This time , it gives us 'Glitter type affects'. Here was me with the power that I had bought from somebody ;

The only function it does is let you add the code (#glitterfx) to any power smiley. Below are 3 examples of me using GLITTERFX to create;

(goo#glitterfx) - Left

(smile#glitterfx) - Middle

(cool#glitterfx) - Right   

 

It looks like snow pouring down the smiley , which seems really cool in my opinion!

So , that's everything you need to know about the GLITTERFX power! We sure got a surprise about it, didn't we? Well, at least they kept to schedule...

Finally, I'd like you to tell me YOUR thoughts on this new power. In my opinion, I feel that although it isn't, I feel that it's a Christmas themed power , and it's finally a GOOD power that's been released, (and profitable)

Let me know your thoughts by leaving a comment below this post! (:

'Black Saturday' - x500 LANG , TREEFX , CLAUS Released! (CONSTANT UPDATES!)

Who said that Black Friday was finished?! Ehh?! Haha, I'm just kidding!

It's another weekend, which means we're guaranteed to have another release of TREEFX and CLAUS , and that's what happened!

At **4pm GMT+0** both powers got released at the same time!

x500 TREEFX and CLAUS released starting at the price of 1000 xats. N.B. Price will DROP!  

But that wasn't the only powers that got re-released, LANG also got returned to the stores literally a minute later than Treefx and Claus;

x500 LANG released costing 2000 xats

TREEFX Update: Power falling down by 23 xats every 10 minutes! When it's a time such as 6.45, 6.55, etc is the time when the power drops.

Here it is dropping lots;

Update 2: **SOLD OUT!** The final price was 511 xats and it had sold out at **7.45pm GMT**.

Final Update: The price on Trade has risen only very slightly and is now currently 530 - 560 xats. Hope you got yours!

________

CLAUS Update: The price drops slightly lower than TREEFX does, but at around the same time. 

  
This power has slightly less demand than TREEFX, as it was not as expensive.

Update 2: **SOLD OUT!** The final price was 400 xats and it had been sold out at around **8.30pm GMT**.

Final Update: Unlike TREEFX, the price on Trade has dropped down to around 360 - 400 xats. Hope you managed to buy one!

    

___________

LANG Update: Unlike TREEFX and CLAUS , this power has had hardly any demand with people selling lower than the store price on Trade!

It's currently 1750 - 1950 xats on Trade.

Update 2: One day later, just like with other powers, it's still in the stores, and remember only 500 were released!

  

I'm pretty sure that it'll be out of stock by the end of today, but obviously demand has completley vanished from this power!

 _____________

So , there you go! That's all the powers that were released yesterday, and sure it was kinda a mini Black Friday if you think about it!

Which powers did you buy if any? Be sure to leave a comment and let me know! :) 

BLACK FRIDAY 2012: ALL the Powers , ALL the Prices , ALL The Updates!

**BREAKING NEWS!**
Black Friday 2012 has occurred, so make sure you've gotten your xats and fingers ready for another dramatic day in the power stores!
Hey guys!

Many of you yesterday spotted the banners saying 'Are you ready?' going around xat, right? Well ...


The rumours that have been going on around xat and this blog have been CONFIRMED! Black Friday 2012 is currently happening as we speak!

However , this year has FAILED and I will tell you the following reasons below ;
  

First of all , there was NO INFORMATION IT HAD STARTED from 42 that was posted on @twitter which means nobody suspected a thing.

Secondly , 42 has been releasing every power in small chunks , which means many users are at a disadvantage and will have to keep refreshing the powers page. Many users have been tricked and had an image in their mind that huge chunks would release all at once.

    

Below are ALL the powers that have released, the quantity, the store price and the aftermath price are all posted. (NO IMAGES FOR MOST THESE POWERS, BUT MAY BE EDITED!)

3.30pm - BLACK FRIDAY FINISHED!                  

Sadly nothing went according to plan. All the users on xat_test , Contests and Help are saying how this years Black Friday has 'failed' and is the worst one yet.

It's also gone wrong because shockingly enough, PURPLE and NAMECOLOR have risen very high, when it's supposed to be going down!

PURPLE - 23000 - 23500 xats
NAMECOLOR - 9800 - 9950 xats

Here is my view on this year's Black Friday, with my experience and knowledge;

"BLACK FRIDAY 2012 in total has FAILED! The prices are extremely cheap in stores and profitable, but the BOOT power was a scam, selling in xats and days to make it seem cheap, when in fact it sold out at 12k!

It's mainly failed though for two reasons. The first one is because there are very very small quantities being released, so hardly any users are able to buy the power in store, the ratio of buying one is a 1/1000 chance, depending on the release. When HERO was released, the chance of getting it was literally 1/9000 as there are thousands of users on xat who had enough to buy it.

The second reason it's failed is because all the other powers on Trade are supposed to be down, especially the Epic Powers. Last year GOLD was 45k, but this years it was still profitable at 52k! 

Yesterday the Epic powers dropped alot like before, but today on the actual day when they found out how it would be released, it's risen back up almost to its original price again! Ridiculous!

If I was 42 and I was asked how I would make BLACK FRIDAY 2012 a success , I would release around 200 instead of 10 of each power at the same cheap prices being released currently, and announce it on Twitter, which may I remind you again, they did NOT do this year! Although the countdown for each power is good and it appears automatically, you have to type your password in already.
TIP: When you're waiting to buy a power and you only have 10 seconds, type your password in and then buy a power (DON'T CLICK!) This way it stores your password so then when the power actually does arrive, you don't have to waste your time typing your password and then missing the release.

Also, press CTRL + F correspondingly and type in the power you are waiting to buy. Then, when it comes, you can click 'next' and it will go straight to it, so you don't have to spend your time looking for the power! Here is proof to show you it works!

That concludes my thoughts on the positives and negatives about this years shopping spree. I hope you gain benefits from this, and hopefully you can keep this in frame and mind for future months/years!"   

  
So, that's everything you need to know about Black Friday 2012. What are your thoughts on this year's celebration? I think I probably know the answer, haha! Anyhows, I've already given my thoughts above, why not give yours?
