"Issue fixed"? So this must be expected behavior now. Good to know.

Or is it only an exploit when certain players do it?

Yeah check out ice cream and canned pineapple too. Although doesn't look like whoever tried it there had big enough stores to really cash in. Same mechanic though.

Where the heck is he? You'd think if he's paying to keep the servers up and running and paying for the domain names etc he would have a bit longer attention span....

The last number for players that I personally remember seeing was 447 active. I stretched it a bit, but it only a bit. And that was after the new server went up. Then the impact of the really goofy import prices, the 2.5X overhead increases and imbalance of market demand types drove it straight off the cliff. The botting and nonsense with Ball has was the coup de gras to bring us to the fragile state we are now in. And I agree with the above recent concerns about the practice of setting up ticks. I can't help but believe it would not happen, or at least be minimized, if there were another demand factor that broadened demand beyond player count/growth.
There needs to be a base demand number.

Isnt this only possible if there is only one person making/importing that good? We need more players.

Good to know that the issue was fixed and that the hundreds of millions being generated now using the exact same exploit are just figments of our imagination.

Hmm... I'm sure I fixed it, maybe the upload failed, I'll double check right now and thanks for the emails.

Confirmed - found an extra max(0.15, demand_met) laying around, got rid of it and it should be fixed for good this time.

Strawberry Sorbet is at WASP of 3k. I am trying to sell my legit sorbet but it will all get gobbled up in one tick with millions in revenue. Now I am stuck unable to sell my stock without 'exploiting' the system...
This is lame.

If I sell at MSRP I still sell out my stock and will earn millions in revenue. WHen compared to the 10-50k in revenues I make off other sorbets, 2.5 million seems rather like an exploit to me.
