The point of this thread seems to be, let's find a compromise that helps all; barring that, at least let's introduce these players to some of the more mathematical, thinking concepts behind the game, and see if that may bring about changes in behavior. While I agree in principle, I think it is unfair to assume that the people throwing 10 cubes need to be shown anything. What is wrong with the explanations so far about getting as many points and rubies as you can when scarcity is factored in? How do you know *why* they are throwing 10 cubes at it? You don't. So assuming it is because they don't know better *is* somewhat arrogant. I have done it myself, not 10 cubes mind you, but certainly more than is efficient, because I needed rubies and points more than I needed cubes.

I am not saying all of them are that advanced obviously, so sure, explain the math, but do it both ways so that the T1 players understand why some people would be justified, mathematically, in stealing MVP with 10 cubes.

And those that keep doing it, well maybe they just don't read this forum, or can't speak English as mentioned before.
