I don't like the idea of buying Epics - the luck is part of the fascination. However, it does seem fair to be able to trade a triple flag Epic, one you have already done twice and it ain't getting any easier, and see what the trade gets you. It could be another Epic you don't want to, or cannot, complete, but it would be an interesting opportunity.

30 was a suggestion for swapping Epics, not buying them.

I think it would be okay to swap out a Epic-III, but I don't think people should ever have the ability to just buy an Epic if they have tons of credits. Getting that Epic first should still be luck of the draw. Getting an Epic-III by luck and then swapping for a different Epic, and just buying an Epic from credits are not the same. The swap would still only work the one time, and it is quite possible to get an Epic you cannot complete when you swap.

There was never any intention of allowing people to buy EPIC challenges in my suggestion it was purely for those who have already completed an an EPIC III challenge to give them a chance of getting another challenge they may not have done and it would only be available once per day so if you got another EPIC III challenge you had already done then that would be tough luck.

I think there was supposed to be one at 50K. I can't remember if it was supposed to be a badge or a super-badge, though.

We have an existing challenge where you have to submit a word of >=x letters in the Word Wizard Gold Members game.

May I suggest something else? Submit one or more words worth a total of x points or more by midnight FT time.

For varying values of x, the challenge would be medium or difficult. You could complete the challenge with one good word or a couple of OK words or 3-4 small words.
