Um yeah, so like I don't think Disney cares a great deal about any results except the number of paying members. Also, if they didn't care about the math they would have just made all the levels the same from the start and let you just keep gaining levels to infinity. Fortunately that's not the reality of this game, the reality is its all about the math. Everything is a numerical progression in this game, simple as that. The sooner everyone grasps that the sooner everyone will understand what might be a reasonable next step in this game. Pie in the sky ideas are great and all but they are much less likely to happen.

I actually see it as an easier solution to the problem at hand. Infinite progression would keep people playing, always having a new goal to reach. This would retain more paid members in the long run. As it stands, the current way they have it setup, yes it restraints itself to the "math", I understand its application. Having a bit of progamming background, I dont at all see my suggestion as a "pie in the sky" idea. Instead I see the reverse as limiting oneself to current game restraints, which are already the problem. If indeed retaining members and their hard earned dollars is Disney's goal my idea makes sense. Instead of them growing bored with limitations, and leaving. Having played this game over a year, I dont see half the pirates (regular or founders) in it that there were 6 months ago. Limiting progression is not winning Disney any income, its losing it.

Indeed if its about the mighty dollar, and profit.. then limitations are limiting their ability to generate it.. which can easily be determined by doing 'math'.
