Snowcones!

My snowcone place is up! Go there and make some snowcones!

If you are complaining about the profit, that's too bad, because when you think about it, getting milk costs you nothing but time, getting ice costs you nothing but time, and you get 7g for 2 apples and some time spent.

You might say "well I would rather bake 4 apples into a pie for 8g since it's more.. blah blah blah..."

Well...

If I baked pies with my apples: 464g
If I made snowcones with my apples: 812g

It's just going to take me WAYYYY longer.. but I would rather do that and get nearly double the profit, then go and bake hundreds of pies over and over. At least with snowcone making you get to do various jobs and then one little job

Quite true, the profit is double. But during that time can't you go make twice as many apple pies and get the same profit equivalent to snow cones? Plus, apple making = more simple

No offense to Koni, but you have to give time a factor too

You don't say time or money is more valuable. Every amount of money you make is an investment of time, and if it takes you more TIME to make the snow cones than it does to get extra apples, it's a waste!

My point exactly, and snow cones are more complicated than pie baking

Well, it's great that there is a profitable aspect to cow milking, and it is better then repeatedly tapping 'A' to roll bread. I still would rather stick to fishing...even though it doesn't pay much

I'm sorry getting apples, ice, and milk is complicating for you.. Maybe we can have a job where you press D some more Stefan should make a Graal keyboard with a big D button on it for special kids like you..

The apples are the same time to get.. the you have to get milk.. milking takes about 10 minutes I suppose to get 3 bottles.. Then you get ice.. thats a toughy.. water ground, dig ground, done.

Then you make monies!

If you don't want to invest the time to make the extra money, then don't do it. I however, will spend the 15 extra minutes to milk cows so that I can pull in twice as much money.

Pie baking takes time too you know, roughly 2 minutes a pie, and when you get 100's of apples you get sick up to your ears of baking pies. So let's estimate. You farm 45 minutes for apples, you get 64 apples, 64 apples makes 16 pies, you bake 16 pies at roughly 2 minutes each meaning 32 minutes.

All together time to bake one set of farmed apples = 96 minutes, or an hour and 36 minutes.

All that for 120g

That means you're making about roughly.. 1g a minute.


But fishing would be the quickest way to make some fast money if you can't spend 45 minutes steady on a set of trees.
Now I will end this math lesson. (I hate math)

Thumbs up :-)!

As a bomy, I love it.
It is more reliable than pearl diving, and if you time things right, you can milk more than one cow at a time to shorten the time frame...
but i would hate to have to go and farm apples... I will just stick with regular old snow cone making :-)

Thanks for putting it up konidias :-)

Actually I do think the profit should be increased maybe by 2g.. Either that, or replace milk with clear water or something...

My original profit price was quite high actually stefan changed it to what he thought would be good.. I still think it needs to be 2 gralat more to compete with baking pies.. :o

Even one gralat more would be fine. That, or we need to be able to carry more bottles

Dude, why do you have to mock me? I'm just pointing something out. Yes, snow cone making is a good thing, I never said it was bad. In my view, I find that apple making has less steps and less effort than pie baking. I was never mean to you in any way

The Death Star was destroyed, and the Empire routed. For now. But the fight would go on. I knew I had much to make up for. Marskan still hated me, and for a good reason. Raider still wouldn't talk to me, and a lot of young pilots had died because I had made them feel invincible. I doubted that I would ever be able to atone for my mistakes.
At least Lynia didn't hate me. Now that the immediate threat was over, she'd promised to spend more time with me. So I had hope. And I had a mission. Like Luke, I would one day learn to master the Jedi way and once and for all banish the taint of the Dark Side within me.

I like making just normal snowcones, even if I could make the same profit in less time with bread baking. The reason? It's actually rather fun. Cow milking is a nice, easy (and free) job, and I absolutely hate watering trees and baking. I just wish the profit would be slightly increased.

Plus, fix snow making. It's ubelievably annoying to have to walk halfway across Antora to fill up your bucket, and then lose it all to the moochers who hang aroundw itht heir shovels, waiting to steal the snow. Come on, you could have made a much better system than the one up there now, Koni.

I give out money to the people who are short 1g on an item, and 5g to a person when it is their Birthday.


I wish fishing was more profitable...
