Dragon Chips and Golden Coins

With the new system we are introducing an internal currency consisted of: Dragon Chips (DC) and Golden Coins (GC).
Dragon Chips are a type of currency used within the game. Dragon Chips are used as entry fee for Fun Games.
All the players receive Dragon Chips daily if the amount of Dragon Chips in their accounts is less than 1000 Dragon Chips. Free Players receive 1000 Dragon Chips per day. Premium Users receive 1000 Dragon Chips 3 times a day and VIP members receive Dragon Chips 5 times per day! You can also Convert Golden Coins to Dragon Chips at a conversion rate of 1 Golden Coin for 100 Dragon Chips.
The Fun Games require an amount of Dragon Chips to be joined: 100, 200, 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1500, 2000, 2500, 5000, 10000
For example: The Prize Fund for a 100 DC Fun game wil be: 100*4=400-% depending on the membership type of the winner.
Each type of member has a certain rake that is applied to his winning pot.
Rake from Dragon Chips is taken from the winner(s) as follows:




The rake for Free Players is 15% so if the game had an entry fee of 100 Dragon Chips – and you won while being a Free Player – you will receive 340 Dragon Chips. If you are a Premium Player you would get 380 Dragon Chips – a 5% rake applied to the pot. A VIP Player would receive the full winning pot of 400 Dragon Chips – with no rake applied to it!
Golden Coins are a type of internal currency that can be used to enter certain tournaments and purchase unique avatars. You can play Fun Games by converting Golden Coins to Dragon Chips, also you can prove your uniqueness by creating your custom avatar in the Virtual Shop.
Golden Coins can be purchased in the Cashier menu at a rate of 100 Golden Coins=$1

The conversion table between Dragon Chips and Golden Coins is:

I don't really understand the motivation for a player to try to win dragon chips, will there be any actual use for them other than to limit the amount of fun games a person could play a day? (eg: freeroll tournament using them as the entry fee)

It's good for mjt to limit the play for players, players will join membership if they want to play more. It could also avoid some cheaters to use different IDs to JOIN all guilds and playing unlimited games in order to win all guilds competitions. Good job.

why would anyone want to buy 1000 dragonchips for $1 and use 100 or more to pay for a fun game instead of just playing a $0.10 cash game?

Getting in a lot of administrative BS is not making it more attractive to play on MJT. A lot of players want to get out of all kinds of administrations and just relax by playing mahjong and not be bothered by yet another set of paperwork. That is one of the reasons the new setup of free roll tournaments failed: too much humbug and procedure with no obvious reason.

I really don't see any reason to change it to the dragon chips and golden coins system. It's just more hassle and people will eventually leave MJT if they have to buy chips or coins to play the "free" games, as they will no longer be "free" games!
