It's called economic deflation. 400 points is now the new 40 because some people had to break the points system somehow. :/
*Inflation. Points have lost their value, so it takes more points to equal the same value of a previous time.
Thanks to that darned glitch (which should be patched, with player fixes incoming), we unfortunately will see some point inflation as a result. Regardless, we're working with the Federal Reserve to study their policy of Fiscal Policy in order to combat this inflation. Now, does anyone have Ben Bernanke's phone number? I need him to help me make some MCSG Bounty Point Bonds.
