    No, you are refusing the math. The numbers don't lie. It's a very simple equation.

    Direct pay method: 12.95/30 days for 6 cycles comes to 77.70
    How much crysta are you required to purchase to cover the EXACT SAME TIME FRAME?

    That's right... $80

    now, I ask you....WHICH IS COSTING MORE FOR THE SAME AMOUNT OF TIME?

    now, let's extend that out for 360 days (almost a year):
    Direct pay: 155.40
    Crysta pay: 160.00

    Well..crap... still not balanced out.

    This goes on and on until you have hit 100 billing cycles. Then, and ONLY THEN are the two the same:

    Direct pay: $1295.00
    Crysta pay: $1295.00

    Math....what a concept.

    Crysta doesn't carry over month for month, does it?

    Buying 1500 crysta means you pay $15.00, but the extra crysta you spend on this game never carries over to the next month, so you have to spend $15.00 each month now to play this game.....

    never claimed the crysta didn't carry over. note that I was calculating cumulative crysta in the minumum $5 amounts you can purchase.
