I hear Illistimi Wizards are the best in plat. Is that true?
Also don't forget how it's much easier to be involved in current events for a good thing.
I enjoy when a GM enters as a NPC and a small storyline is played out with those in the area. Great way to get to know your neighbors.

So... if I did a 30 day trial, and it was active during the 725 Simucoin offering, then swapped back to prime... I would effectively be up like... 2 dollars.

You stumble about in a fruitless attempt at foraging.
1/6/2014: Setheve completes the promotion ritual and says, "Congratulations, Whirlin, for achieving Guild Master status! We trust you'll serve your guild well."
1/11/2014: Grandmaster Alchemist
1/14/2014: Capped, and got Loralaii killed by a GM.
7/11/2016: Founded the Hand of the Arkati
9/20/2016: T5 on my bow (Thanks to Isola)... Managed as far as T4 myself.
You don't get the SimuCoins until you are billed for the amount.
I'd sign up for it but with my luck I'd forget about the trial.
I didn't use the free trial myself. But I was already prepared to jump in. Have yet to regret it. I'm enjoying both Prime and Platinum. Funny thing is I am playing Richaard in both but with two different play styles.

Plat has always been enjoyable so long as things are somewhat active, otherwise it can be a little dull when no one is on
If anyone does decide to try it out, here's a little list to help with setting up ;go2 for use in Platinum with our portals. It won't overwrite anything you have in Prime.
1. ;go2 list
2. backup your custom targets (precaution)
3. ;repo download go2.lic
4. ;repo download-mapdb
5. ;repo set-mapdb-updatable
6. Set go2 variables
a. ;go2 --fwi-trinket="trinket name"
b. ;go2 --portals=on
c. ;go2 --portal-pass=<on|off>

(OOC) Boring's player whispers, "Wow you have a lot of gowns."
Come try a free 30 day trial of Platinum!
Single player Gemstone is called Zork. That's way cheaper than a platinum membership.
Edit to add:
That said, I was at an IC event the other night where people were ICly spouting wiki URLs and using words that were referencing cars and driving, and no one batted an eyelash. I found myself longing for just a little bit of RP integrity.
Platinum is probably held to those standards better, but Prime used to be a nice middle ground. In many cases it still is, but if platinum were the standard, or had a playerbase, it'd be the place for me.
Unfortunately, in a world where the main choice in MUDing is increasingly "find a MUD that isn't empty", paying EXTRA to play a mud that IS empty is a no-brainer turn down.
