    You could always cap it a-la C&D, and at x number of either of those colored tiles on board, halt production. 

     Or you could make it active, and give it a countdown, or reccouring tile.

    "Yes we do! I just champed OBW". 

    Almost made me spit out my drink. Very sad and unfortunate, but their lack of insight into some of the nuances of their own game is quite unsettling. I'm still on the fence about these XP changes. They implied that they put quite a bit of work into understanding how to change it so that you leveled up at the same rate, but to truly gauge that youneed an active champ farm at all tiers of play, and you need to be playing on a daily basis almost. Highly doubtful IMO at least.

    Meeting to discuss launch of Hulk gladiator new character

    Director: So, we have a new Hulk coming out to synergize with the new movie he is in, what Hulk-tastic events do we have planned?

    Developer: Well, you know we just released a new Thor and we have this thing called Lightning rounds which we used to celebrate that. So, we’re doing the same thing with Hulk.

    Director: Ah! So Hulk has lightning powers now?

    Developer: No, no, no, he still has…uhm…Hulk powers, the lightning bit relates to Thor!

    Director: But we aren’t releasing another Thor…are we?

    Developer: No Sir! This is Hulk! Anyway, this event is just like the Gladiator battle in the movie, see?

    Director: So, you get to battle Hulk one on one? Like that Crash thing you guys do?

    Developer: Uhm…no, you battle random enemy teams 3 on 3 but this time there are like, only 20 people instead playing in one group instead of the usual amount!

    Director: That doesn’t sound like anything to do with Hulk. Oh well, did you at least play test this?

    Developer: Of course! We had 2 runs of Thor, the first time the players really enjoyed all the prizes they got for less effort, so we made sure second time around to change that and make them work hard!

    Director: Excellent, just like a gladiator! I’m starting to see the tie-in now!
