Well the modification that allows you to use your GFP in the arcade to play games has been upgraded and I have been messing around with some of the controls and now the arcade pass can be yours at a very cheap price. Not 15,000 GFP but could be as low as 100 GFP.

So this is the place to discuss whether the arcade pass should be available to all of you. If you are interested in knowing more details, read below.

Will I have to pay for the Arcade Pass?

The Arcade Pass will cost GFP, vote in the poll above to either have the arcade pass at some cost or not to bring it up at all.

Why should someone buy the arcade pass?

Because it will give you free plays no matter how many times you play a game in one day and no matter how many saved scores you got.

Any negatives?

You canoot get a jackpot of any game because you did not give any money to play the game, the system will not recognize your high score to give you a payout because the arcade pass lets you pass through the GFP system.

Can I still pay manually when I want just to try for the jackpot?

Yes you may. But you will have to look at the game from the arcade view, and click the link that reads something like "Pay 0.50 to Qualify for XX.00 Jackpot" - This feature is great for anyone that has the arcade pass but does not mind paying once in a while to try for the jackpot.

How long does the arcade pass last?

Between 24 and 48 hours, vote above to which you think is most appropriate.
Can I choose the expiration date of my arcade pass? Unfortunately you cannot, the modification for this is not very advanced and there can only be one global setting.

Can I Sell my arcade pass to someone else that wants it?

Nope...it is in your account, non-transferable.
Can I get a manual Payout for beating a high score? Nope..you have been warned that you will not be paid a jackpot at all. You cannot complain about it later.

I am staff, do I get a discount?

Yeah Of course......No - the answer is no....no discounts

Vote away. The option with the most votes within the next week will get it. Currently the default is 200 GFP for 24 hours...

Please note: the 200 GFP for 24 hours is being tested, so it may not be available for everyone, only a select few.

Yeah, I thought the arcade pass cost too much. And I didn't want to buy it for you to bring the price down the next day. I think 100 gfp is good for 24 hours....

another thing has been added:

If you have an arcade pass you can still pay for the game manually IF you want to try for the jackpot. The answer and question has been added to the list above.

@scott - if you feel that way then you should vote lol, cuz i know i'll forget which side your on in time :-P

You could always just tell him to go onto another site with free arcade games :D

I'd never use it... because I just don't use the arcade enough ever to make it viable, but 100gfp for 2days sounds like a nice median.

I think 200 for 2 days sounds good.
A 100 a day isn't that bad, especially for those that play the arcade a lot.
I personally wouldn't buy it that much.
I don't really go into the arcade.

only people that want to play a lot in a day like jakncoke who like to submit a lot of chopper challenge scores would buy this for a 24 hour period

and also 100 gfp for 1 day has a lead of 1 vote lol, not much but it can be the huge difference

i almost forgot about this thread - looks like 100gfp for 1 day is the winner - i will set it up over this week for everyone on the forum.

and for the people that voted not to put an arcade pass - you don't have to buy an arcade pass to play the games, it is optional as stated in the first post

I voted for 200 for one day. If that one works. If not 150 for a day. Also I'm not 100% sure how the arcade pass works. It says that you much pay .50 gfp to post a high score. Does that mean you have to pay that before the game. Or does it let you do it after you already lost? If you have to play it before, then I see no point in it. I would always do it anything, because what happens if I get the high score?

ur questions don't make a lot of sense trunks lol

but it is like this

if you have an arcade pass, you can click to play any game for free - you are allowed to submit scores, even the highest score possible without a problem. You can do that as many times as you want for free without having to spend more GFP in there.

But if you want the JACKPOT you have to pay. There is a button that says "Pay 0.50 to Qualify for XX.00 Jackpot" where the XX is the jackpot numbers. But if you don't click that and play for free, you will not be able to get the jackpot even if you got the highest score.
