Treasure Maps
You can also read and comment this Insider in the forum topic posted here.
Dear citizens,
Today we are going to present you a new concept, called “treasure maps”. Treasure maps will become one of the most loved things in the eRepublik world, as they are the ones offering you the chance to find free GOLD. We said “find”? A better term would be “discover” because you will, literally, discover hidden treasures!
Treasure maps are replacing the simple Achievements Rewards system that we have now. So, instead of a basic alert announcing that you've just received a GOLD reward when you reach an achievement (like Hardworker, Supersoldier, Congress medal, etc) or one of the citizens you invited reaches level 6, you will be offered a cool treasure map with many possibilities. You are not forced to explore the map immediately, but you have a limit of 30 days in which you can use the map. This because after 30 days the map becomes unreadable thus unusable! Each map has three paths, each ending with a marked “X”, and each revealing a treasure of a specific value in GOLD.
It must be said that the average treasures value will vary, but here comes your luck and inspiration: the path you choose will lead you to a treasure that might contain an average, slightly smaller or slightly larger amount of Gold. Of course, the difference between them will not be that big. But you are a lucky citizen, aren't you?
Remember you can only choose one path.
Speaking of luck, you will surely hear some citizens shout what would seem to be legends about some poor citizens turning into pretty rich men overnight. Who knows, maybe it will be YOU they'll talk about, one of the Treasure of Kings discoverers! If you'll get your hands on such a legendary treasure, you may easily quit your job and live your e-life with style, at least for a while
We know, you're thinking: “Seriously admin? One in a million winner, right?” but this is not the case. The Treasure of Kings discoveries will be pretty frequent, the old kings from before the New World had untold riches, so expect many such legendary treasures! So, all you have to do is to choose your path, dig and believe in your luck.
But, once again, let's have the pictures talk:

May your chosen path lead you to untold riches and change your destiny or why not that of your nation!
In order to implement the Treasure Maps, tomorrow (day 874 of the New World) we will take the eRepublik servers offline for about an hour, starting with 02 AM, eRepublik time.
Also, we kindly ask you to avoid spamming of the Insiders. Each eRepublik Insider has a topic so please debate that specific topic. Comments like "first", "second", "add that language" or "remove x thing" are spam unrelated to Insider's subject.

seems interesting, voted ^^
Yeah !
dear god close out the australia battle
sounds fun
Luck factor? Pfuj...
Why are you adding luck related stuff like hit chance and these treasure maps?
Luck isn't fair, some people will get more then others based on nothing, alliance can lose the battle cause they were unlucky and there will be a sh*tstorm of whiny articles over that
Just keep set numbers like now
close the Western Australia battle!
Here we go again...
It seems interesting and congratz about add mini games as in old polls some ppl told you
OYEAH
So there will be no gold given automatically? And the amount of gold will be random? Yeah, nice idea for you to keep people buying more gold for real money.
Brilliant

CLOSE THE WESTERN AUSTRALIA!
treasure maps for the lose, stupid stupid stupid.
Good initiative.
Voted.
Your comment about the spam comments got ignored
I agree with that.

CLOSE THE BATTLE IN WA INSTEAD OF REALEASING ARTICLE WE WON 3 TIMES NOW
This is so awesome I came~!
END THE BATTLE!
Sweet!
HOW COME THE BATTLE IN WA NEVER ENDED DESPITE THE FACT IT WAS +50K IN AUSTRALIA'S FAVOUR?????
PLEASE END THE WA BATTLE
Dear Sirs,

voted
lol
nice
End the West Australia battle instead of publishing articles!
i barfed.
FIX YOUR STUPID WAR MODULE!
END WA
You posted this while Western Australia was glitching out?
Do the new mini games end when they are supposed to?
End battle > Treasure Maps x2
sounds like more work for me...and, I'll bet, for less of a payout.
But that's just my optimist speaking.
hooaaaaaaammmmmmmm
at least its better not smaller than 5 gold
@insightz: But is reality..., how you represent simplily that you just epic failed, your gun did, the weather got you, something unexpected happen, etc?..., just add a random "miss" and you will overcome all of that.
@Mateusz Marek: But it will be easy, if at least Plato told you so, to find it out..., also, eventually the programers just miss a value over there and give insane ammounts of "Epic Treasury" just for a wrong value,
And what I wanted to say when I read the title: What?, O_o
Close the battle!
yeah
Yay, eRepublik 3-Man-Monty Slots.
Treasure maps is more important than eAustralia FACT!
looks nice.. but couldn't that wait and be implemented after v2? so we can have v2 quicker???
LOL Treasure maps!
Treasure Maps > End Battle
Fix the broken war module first, admins!
OMFG !
end the battle at WA NOW!
Treasure Maps > End Battle [+1]

Will the treasure found be greater than or equal to 5G?
don't you fools understand what no spam means
END THE WA BATTLE, DONT POST ARTICLES FFS
Congratulations erepublik admins. Once again you have displayed your incompetence for the world to see. You create a game that has a retention rate of only 10% and you refuse to do anything to keep those 10% of the people happy. You think we care about treasure maps when one of the largest battles of all time is going on? The battle needed to be closed and instead you have spent your time writing this article. Kudos to you, here I was thinking that simple laws of economics means that when people supply a shit product people won't buy it, but you've proven me wrong there.
FIX THE PROBLEMS YOU ALREADY HAVE BEFORE INTRODUCING MORE PROBLEMS.

My gods, it looks like some little mini-game you'd find up in the Games section of Yahoo. But looks aside, a little randomness in the achievement awards would be a good thing. Sure, some people are going to complain how it's not fair, but people say the same thing about the Lottery, and people still play it.
Most awesome idea EVAR! Great job admins! May the Force be with you!
END THE WA BATTLE, DONT POST ARTICLES FFS
I like that . . .

I hope you like the comments.
wow, nice
OK how about you end the battle in Western Australia. Australia should have won it ages ago
it look like other game i play
ah, good to see that gold is going to devalue like no tomorrow ¬.¬
More attention towards improving the current game functions (ie battles) would be appreciated versus having this stuff put in...
END THE BATTLE IN WA INSTEAD OF PUBLISHING AN ARTICLE<----agree
