An idea for reducing search costs (the dreaded next button syndrome)

[TomRodgers]

My idea is to reduce the price of search costs by 2 percent with each hit of the next button. For example:

Th10 search costs:

Initial search: 1000 gold
Next button: 980 gold
Next button: 960 gold
Next button: 940 gold
etc...

All they way down to either 0 gold after 50 searches, or a set reduction cap.

Given that search costs benefit no one and removes gold from the game. I think this idea would not only help allievate player frustrations in finding matches, but also give the overall economy a slight bump in the right direction.

I love this idea.

Hmmmm, interesting.... Probably not down to zero and maybe not 20 after EVERY search but about 5 every search or 25 every 5 searches down to half of the initial search cost (ex. 500 for th10 375 th9 etc).

IMO it should cost gold to hit find a match, then be free when pressing next.
