I heard a 2nd hand report of someone on XBox that has spent over $6000 USD on the game.
Also, who would be crazy enough to just do 500+ PVP battles when the reward for first place is only 50 gems and a few arcanes? Wait, don’t you do that every week?

If you wanted to go for the record, you could dump your current guild, spend some gems and go for it!

Is 65k+ still your record? If so, we’ve got someone in our guild who beat that by 7-8k points.

I’ve got no idea what his final score was since I went to bed 6 hours before reset and he was at 73k, but that must be boring as all hell and soul destroying, ha ha.

This is why you don’t do it every weeks lol
I played other games to change my minds after that week 🙂

1. I don’t think I’ve ever seen @lyya super-high on the leaderboards… I believe she also has a life…
2. I also think (based on extremely strong evidence from forum observation, not to mention programming the whole gems database website and auto-account-population etc) that she’s way too _smart_ to do something like that
3. If she is indeed a dragon made of gems, then firstly she needs to update her avatar, and secondly I do wonder how she manages to type… or swipe gems without her claws destroying the tablet… and surrounding house…

Just a rumour. Anyone can say anything online and I heard this second or third hand, but I know of people who have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on Video Lottery Terminals, so $6000 on Gems of War only seems crazy, not life-destroyingly sad.

Someone bought my friends World of Warcraft account for £2,500 back in the day, but whatever floats their boat 😏

Well if someone really enjoy the game and only play this game and can afford spending that much and not compromise his quality of life, it’s his choice, some people pay more then this for drug or some sports equipment, some people might think it is crazy but if the person is happy this is the most important

I agree. I actually feel bad about how _little_ I have spent on this game given how much my wife and I have both gotten out of it (it’s still more than i would have spent on a AAA title, but per hour of entertainment, the number has got to be very low).
