Hello Everyone, Although old tickets from the previous Swole Club will not carry over to the new [Holiday Swole Club](http://www.kongregate.com/forums/727066-general/topics/953248-official-joy-to-the-swole ), we don’t want your hard earned Gun Show Tickets to go to waste, collecting dust in your inventory. **We’re converting Gun Show Tickets into Golden Turds! ** We plan to do this on **Wednesday** and all players will be notified with a game mail message containing their Golden Turds. The amount you receive will depend on how many Gun Show Tickets you have, as listed below: |Gun Show Tickets | Golden Turds| |-|-| |1 to 1000 | 1000| | 1001 to 50000| 3000| |50001 to 250000 | 5000| |250001+|8000| If you have any questions or feedback, please use this thread. Thank you for playing and supporting the game!  *EDIT - changed "0 to 1000" to "1 to 1000" All players that participated in the previous Swole Club will get at least 1,000 *** This is a one time conversion and will not be offered in future Swole events.  Starting December 20, 2017 Swole Club tokens, tickets, or related items will have a decay timer on them. Once the timer runs out, the item will disappear from the player's inventory.

Thanks! This is exciting!

should have a 500k+ tier as well

Wow, that's great news, ModchiKopi. Thanks! Out of curiousity, is this a one-time thing or will this be a normal conversion bonus going forward for future Swole events?

Nice bonus, should we expect this as we move into the Holiday Swole Club? Meaning should we plan to get as many Gun Show Tickets as we can, whether we need them or not, to maximize a return on Golden Turds when the exchange rolls around again?

Of course I have 48k so I only get 3k turds. Typical :-( (Still happy to be getting something though, so thanks for this!)

That meant for (please correct me if I am worng here) 100% of the players: they will not be worth a damn thing after the swole event. I am beyond pissed. I tried to actually play the game and progress when, as I _now_ know, could have stopped _seriously_ playing swole club after 2 weeks because of the ridiculous wall that 90% of the players hit, and just played level 1 for the last 2 weeks. I am *beyond* pissed about that. As if the game wasn't enough of a gamble so far, now I have to roll a dice for every statement? You just converted currency number 37 into currency number 38 in the game. Now players get rewarded for not rising up to the literal **challenge** but stopped doing so and just farmed. I am deeply, deeply disappointed about this. For me that is, in retrospect, outright lying in my face back with the facts that i have now.

Great question from both of you. Initially I think of this as more of a special occurance extra perk, so we can focus more on enjoying Swole Club and less about meeting an arbitrary number for a gift months down the road. The intent is to send out a gift, not really an extra reward since performance based rewards have already been sent from the actual Challenge. But, I will ask! It would be neat to know especially for folks who may land right on the cusp of tiers.

>**No**. This is **absolutely**, in **no** way, **any good news**. This is plain and simple, a **LIE** in retrospect. We were told that the gun show tickets wouldn't be worth a damn.

The intent is to give something extra, not make people upset. I'm so sorry. It's my understanding that the only thing we've said is that they would not transfer over; which they don't. We're always looking at player feedback and if something gets a lot of traction, plans could change. If it's preferable to just delete everyone's gun show tickets then that saves us a lot of work, but the idea was to provide something extra in good spirits without any expectations.

So, is this the part where i lose my mind on you guys? Really? Maybe if this chart gets updated it will be different. Or you can math how i am supposed to continue giving you my money after this? Because I will not. I HAVE 15,031,326 And you want me to accept 8000 turds for this? I want a response ASAP.

Hey, it's something. The least they could do right now.

For me that is, in retrospect, outright lying in my face back with the facts that i have now. Seriously what the issue they said it wouldn't carry over it's not. Inst ad of deleting them we get gt. Yes everyone just farmed swole tokens because we knew they wouldn't carry over instead of trying and failing and getting tokens in a small amount. Your logic and argument is flawed and need to change your perspective or bark at the wall because you my good sir are out of focus

We were told the tickets would not carry over. We assumed this meant that they would have no value, and therefore had no reason to go back to farm and get more. While i did not expect these turds, i will accept them. If however, tickets are remove all together, and we receive nothing, i would also be ok with it.

Thanks for the updated information I am surprised that some people just like to complain about everything

You get what you get and be happy, they weren't going to give us anything. Don't fucking ruin it because it's not enough for you

For me that is, in retrospect, outright lying in my face back with the facts that i have now. Give toneman a cookie, instead. That should make him feel better.

While it might cause more work for the dev team, maybe there would be a way to "opt-in" to whichever option you want Option A: I'll shut up and accept my unexpected gift or Option B: LIFE IS UNFAIR AND YOU SHOULD STICK TO YOUR WORD. DELETE MY USELESS TICKETS (forfeit the free reward)

Please don't do that. Some of us are very happy with this news! Thank you for not wasting our arms

YAY!! 5k cards comin my way!

This absolute bs 8 golden turd pulls for millions of tickets thx

It should be 1:1 ratio this is beyond messed up
