BINGO

Since this post will be current until January, thought I'd be salty/have fun with it. Let's see if we get Bingo, shall we?

Anon, is there the expectation in your flight that individuals will lose money buying fodder during a battle?

Trainers (as well as attendants) shouldn't lose money because it creates participation barriers and they're already volunteering their time and other resources. (Lair space).

Flight funds should be paying to flip fodder to trainers at payout prices. I thought this was the norm but some flights don't do this???? So yeah, internally trained fodder is a visible cost for some flights and not for others.

nayrt

I don't think that's what AYRT means. During battles there are lots of people who will largely ignore what their coordination team(s) is up to during a Dominance fight and spend their own money for dominance their own way. A very hands off approach but still contributing in their own way. (I am one of these) I don't even know who my dom coordinators are tbh. if I see my flights symbol is first on the dom board I will throw dragons into it because why not.

sa

and if anyone is curious as to how I 'contribute' in a hands off approach: I will either just train/exalt dragons from my massive and full hibden over the course of the fight and then donate that money to the dom bank, OR, I will sell my fodder to my flightmates at a massively "reduced" price and then give that money to my dom bank.

Reduced, meaning, like 7.5kT per dragon when the fodder prices are like 10kT on the AH. My hibden is huge so I give millions to my dom bank that way lol

Oh, yeah I know that, I think I communicated what my actual point was poorly lol

I meant that the "illusion of cheapness" is totally a thing and was providing another example in how some banks totally already budget for a lot of those "personal fodder costs" when they subsidize thousands of fodder dragons and some banks don't!

It's a flight culture thing. Some dom teams want mercs on their budget and some don't.
