Online donate simulation

    The experiment conducted on Habré prompted me to write this topic . He reminded me that I simulated various sales schemes in one online game. In this case, we will talk about a donate scheme that causes considerable holivars.

    As part of the experiment, pills were distributed. In the game, these pills are not that vital thing, but they make you feel more comfortable. Those. readily available consumer goods. One tablet costs one (indivisible unit of money) coin, wholesale is cheaper (1 coin = 3-4 tablets).

    The results of the experiment you see in the diagram. During the experiment, 100 tablets were distributed, as a rule, 1 tablet in one hand per day. Pills were distributed with the help of a similar appeal: “Free distribution of pills. Stop the virus if you can support the project. ” Those who thanked include not only those who gave the money, but also those who said "thank you" or expressed their gratitude in other ways.

    Paid out of 100 people only 11: 8 with money and 3 game elements. The market value of those who paid in money was also paid only by 3, the remaining 5 paid in amounts much higher than the market value of the pills. By the end of the experiment, I had 37 coins.

    For myself, I concluded that with proper work with the audience, you can achieve good results on the donate scheme, and you should not be afraid to do something for free at all: the likelihood that you will not get paid for your work is not so high. Maybe you will earn not so much how much you would get by discussing the price initially, but the number of orders will be greater.

    The most interesting thing for me was that almost half of the citizens, having received something for free and without any obligations, do not even bother to say “thank you”.

    UPD: Here, many decided that I was a game developer. It’s not so, I’m a banal player, I don’t get real money for it. I have nothing to do with the creators or owners. Game currency is a game currency that is mined during the game (although you can turn real rubles into it, you can’t reverse it). Game MMORPG, a genre of post-apocalypse, thousands of active players.
    UPD 1: Found an analogue of “pills” in the real world - condoms. They are inexpensive, affordable, and also save from viruses.
