GemBox & Gems...

As we all know, the maximum amount of gems gained from clearing obstacles are now twice the previous one.
But, that doesn't prove your statement that you'd get more gems for clearing them. Supercell might increase the chance of getting low amount of gems that you got from those obstacles, which would result in lower average of gems received.
(I haven't really researched my hypothesis, and I'd be glad if someone helps me)

What's matter? Do you not want other people to catch up with you or something?

I bet he's 9.

you create a thread suggesting that they increase the cost of search by 1000, and another one saying that free gems should be reduced, are you ok?

He sounds like a perfectly normal forumer/ COC gamer to me! He fits the bill :-

'Always complain about whatever SC rolls out'.

Though I must give him an A+ for originality.

There has been no info released on dropped gem reward rates, and seems to be little or no indications of it in the long run when clearing. If someone (less restrained and too emotional) has a bad day and gets 0 gems for clearing 3 obstacles, it sadly is not unlikely that they go on to the forums and write a strongly worded conspiracy thread about how SC is scamming everyone by increasing max amount of gems from obstacles, but cutting down on drop rates. There should be some form of infraction for posting crazy threads with no logic behind them :rolleyes:

Some collected sets of obstacle clears were discussed here: http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...tacles!!/page2
with the conclusion that the gem drop amount per obstacle is around 2.1 (based on averages from a few data sets), up from around 1 gem / obstacle pre-patch. This indicates that the drop rate has not decreased, and that we are getting twice as many gems now as we were before the obstacle gem drop change.

Not everything is a conspiracy (eg ⬇️This) and there are documented on other threads the average like said above is up by average 1 gem per obstacle

Gems HAVE to be easier to come by as they add more levels/upgrades to the game, otherwise getting to a competitive level looks far too daunting to new players. It's a similar concept to how WOW made leveling up much faster at the beinning as they expanded the number of levels. What you suggest would actually hurt the game's very survival in the long run, from a marketing standpoint.
