Training Deal Analysis.
Rolando Guerra
I'm here again to offer a bit of mathematical analysis of the new deal that has popped up for enthusiastic weightlifters looking to get more bang for their buck. But is it worth the hassle and the large amount of gold?
Let's crunch the numbers.
Seeing as the discount is for 30 days, let's add up all the gold it would take to train for 30 days without the discount.
without the discount, It would cost 2.87 gold to train at every level. multiplied by 30 days it would cost 86.1 gold to train normally. Now let's look at how much each discount will save you.
Using the 50% discount (training discount) it would cost you now 43.05 gold to train for those 30 days. add the cost of the contract of 25 gold comes to a total of 68.05 gold, saving you 18.05 gold from the original cost.
Under the 90% discount (pro training contract) it would cost you 8.61 gold to train those 30 days. the contract costs 53 gold, bringing the total cost to 61.61 gold. That's a total savings of 24.49 gold.
In conclusion, if you planned on training for a month straight, this appears to be a nice deal, with the 90% discount be better in the long run. also remember that these numbers are only correct if you used the training option every day. If you miss any days you may get less out of the training contracts. Also my math only used the level 1 Training facilities; those of you who have upgraded the buildings and receive better strength bonuses may get more out of the sale than those who have the standard ones.
Be sure to leave a comment (negative or positive) and if my math appears to be wrong then be sure to let me know. I'd love to see where, if anywhere I went wrong with my analysis. Wouldn't want to be spreading bad math on the good citizens of eUSA.
and always shout and spread around like chlamydia.

Looks like the whole promotion about saving 50% or 90% conveniently leaves out the cost of the contract?
Really at best we could save 33% or so over the current months cost?
Due to the mechanics of the game this is the only promo still worth buying even if you lose gold to use for 30 days.
I compare this deal to investing in one's gyms here http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/2170183 -- it takes longer than 30 days for investing in the free gym to be better, but investing in the free gym increases the rate of change of strength forever, not just for a month. I need to re-read yours again (and maybe re-read mine again too).

With full Q4 TG, you can get 11 SS Medal per month
That is 55G per month
With 90% contract, you need 8,61G + 53G per month
So, all you need is 6.61G per month
You can get that easily from hard worker and true patriot
6.61G for 11 SS (2750 STR)? That's a good deal : )
You can train 31 times with a contract, not 30
