🛡️ From today, the reward pool can never run dry. Here is exactly how we're protecting every farmer, and what it means for your earnings. Every SEASON you earn in Farming Season is paid from one place: the reward pool in the vault. If that pool ever ran out, nobody could be paid. Not the new farmer, not the top farmer, nobody. We won't let that happen. 📉 What was going wrong Rewards in the game are set in dollars. When the token price falls, the game has to pay MORE tokens for the same dollar reward. Over the last days the price dropped hard, so the pool was paying out far more tokens than flowed back in. At that pace the pool would have been empty within days. 🚰 What we changed: the pool balancer Think of the pool as a water tank with a tap. Each day, rewards can use: • everything that flowed INTO the pool over the last 24 hours (the pool's share of in-game spending, fees, buybacks, and the balances of farms frozen for cheating) • plus 3% of the pool itself. If all promised rewards fit in that, you get 100% of them. If they don't, every reward is paid at the same share for every farmer, so the tank never empties. 📊 What it applies to Paid at the current share: harvests, animal products, orchard fruit, workshop goods, village income, arena loot, fishing, boxes, clan and contest prizes, and Farm Bank sales. Your SEASON is safe: everything already in your balance stays exactly as it is, and you can withdraw it as before. 📈 When the price goes up, your earnings go back up The share is recalculated every 10 minutes from real numbers, automatically. When more flows into the pool (a higher token price, more players building and buying, buybacks), the share rises step by step, all the way back to 100%. It moves gently on purpose: down at most 3 points and up 1 point every 10 minutes, so nothing jumps overnight. 🤝 Why this protects you • The pool can't hit zero, so your rewards keep being paid every single day. • SEASON has a fixed supply: no new tokens are ever minted, rewards come from the pool. Paying out at a pace the pool can carry means fewer tokens leave it and hit the market at once, which means less selling pressure and is good for the value of the SEASON you already hold. • It's fair: one share for everyone, no exceptions, and cheaters' frozen balances flow back into the pool for honest players. Bottom line: we chose to pay a fair share every day for a long time, instead of 100% for a few days and then nothing. As the economy grows, the share grows with it. Keep farming 🌾
