You seem to have a wrong idea of what this site is.
You do not have a contract with them that guarantees you a given payout, you're using a free service where they decide all by themselves how much they want to pay you for visiting their site.
You then decide whether or not this payout is enough for you to visit the site and out of the sum of all their users who decide every day again whether they find the site worth visiting the site then decides how much they want to pay to keep enough users.
You may make suggestions to the site, such as "if you keep payouts so low you will lose users and a site without users cannot make revenue from ads", but whether or not they will follow your suggestion is entirely up to them.

There are plenty of other faucets who did the same, not having enough users to cover their expenses, therefore reducing payouts, resulting in losing even more users and even less revenue from ads.
These sites open and close on a daily basis by the dozens and sites that get the point are quite rare, but that still doesn't give you any right to request a higher payout.

Compared to average faucets CMG has been online longer than most others, whether they can remain open while reduced payouts lead to a loss in users remains to be seen, but other than making suggestions there's nothing you can do, where those suggestions obviously have better chances of getting heard, the politer they are worded.

My bad, had one zero too many in the calculation.
So the electricity for posting here was less than the payment, still the electricity for accumulating the coins exceeds the coins made.

0.008 LTC takes depending on how much time you invest into it and of course on the current value of LTC.
Supposing you sleep 8 hours a day, but spend 16 hours a day, 7 days a week keeping track of the timers and focussing exclusively on LTC, at current value of LTC it takes

- at one access every 3 hours to restart mining at level 18 and launch a mission roughly two weeks
- with access every 10 minutes to do shortlinks for energy and launch as many missions as possible roughly one week, maybe 10 days

That's almost 3 Cents, incredible, isn't it?
The electricity running your computer while writing this post has cost you more than you got paid there.
Not to mention the electricity it has cost you running your computer to accumulate these coins.

CMG is a fun game that has a very low price tag (in form of electricity bill) on it, but it is definitely NOT a source of money.

Well, it's saturday, I have nothing to do, so let me write a review from the point of view of an experienced faucet user.
It's going to be long and of course not everything in this will be valid for everyone, so take it as just my 5 cents.
I'm writing this because (as you will see in the next two lines) I love CMG for it's main game and I find it such a pitty that all the rest (as you will see below those two lines) is so disappointing.

First and foremost, the basic idea of designing a faucet as a game, where you get energy to do missions that then pay coins is plain great.
It's so great that despite the fact CMG is the BY FAR lowest paying faucet I claim from, it still is my favourite faucet.

But then, the entire rest of the whole site is (still just from my point of view, even though I believe I'm not the only one thinking this way) plain junk.
Please do not feel offended, I don't mean to offend anyone, especially not the admin of my favourite faucet, I just believe it doesn't help anyone sweet talking about the site and the wording I'm using is just the way I talk, I'm simply no friend of political correctness.
I hope the following can give you an insight into your users point of view and help you improving the site so it becomes more attractive for the users.

1) Gifts and lotteries to win them
What you can "win" there is such a crap, even if I would win something one day, I wouldn't claim it, because to me the "prizes" are worth less than nothing.
Therefore all the tickets one can find in missions are worth less than nothing as well, I would much rather terminate those gifts and get additional Satoshis in missions, or at least an option of selling gift tickets.

2) The mega jackpot
Richard Wolff (US professor for economics) once said: "Lotteries are an additional tax for all those who failed in math."
A lottery creates ONE winner and 1000s of disappointed losers.
If the max you can win in a lottery that runs a full week is around $3, there isn't even any attraction in the jackpot.
Therefore all the tickets for the jackpot one can find in missions are worth less than nothing as well, I would much rather terminate those tickets and get additional Satoshis in missions, or at least an option of selling jackpot tickets.

3) Games
All the games the site offers so far (except of the main mining game with missions) do not have the slightest little bit of attraction to me and the amount of Satoshis one can win in those games is so tiny, compared to the amount of time it takes winning any, it's a plain waste of time.
I wouldn't even play the miner run, if there weren't any viruses in it and I would win the jackpot in every single run.
I wouldn't even play the explorer if there were exclusively winning fields in it.
Therefore all the "virus slow down" and other stuff related to the games one can find in missions are worth less than nothing as well, I would much rather terminate those things and get additional Satoshis in missions, or at least an option of selling these things.

I assume, the announced card game won't be any different, therefore I would highly recommend terminating the huge efford you're putting into this.
For all I have figured so far the card game will be the combination of a game that has no attraction whatsoever with a lottery that leaves 99.999% of users disappointed while the ONE lucky winner will receive a prize not worth mentioning.
If this assumption is correct, I'll look at this card game just as much as I'm looking at the other games, which is not at all.

Have you noticed that there are more VMPs created than there are users joining a VMP? Doesn't that tell you this is a failure before it even begins?
Crypto people are no team players, they are individualists who prefer working for themselves by themselves.

4) Treasure chests
I'm still waiting for the day I find something useful in a chest, I only open them because the site bombards me with crystals I have no other use for.
Treasure chests provide things from the above 3 points, which are all worth less than nothing, therefore treasure chests themselves are worthless².
Again, I would much rather terminate the chests business and get more Satoshis in missions.

You offer gold chests for an outrageous price, like 18,000 sat for 1000 crystals and one gold chest, where 1,000 crystals used in mining are worth roughly 5,000 sat and the content of the chest is worthless.
Do you truly believe your users cannot calculate that you're selling $2 for the price of $8 under the condition that users must wait 1000x 10 minutes to even get the $2?
(Same thing with the "become a patron" business, costs $2 a month while the max one can get out of CMG is less than $2 a month, but that's a different topic.)

Now one point about your referral program:
After the "win referrals in missions" turned out to be a failure, there still are the regular referrals, where I have quite a few of those, but I'm about ready to eliminate CMG from my faucet list (link to my website in my profile), because 0.5% of what my referrals make once they reach premium is such a joke.
In over half a year of membership with by now over 60 referrals I've gotten a total value of roughly $0.50 out of all my referrals combined.
Do you REALLY believe THIS could be a motivation for referrers to promote your site, given the fact that at the most one in 60 users can have 60 referrals?

Last but not least two points about the main mining game:

1) What's the point of the timers in missions?
If, when and how many missions I can launch depends on the amount of energy I have, a timer that makes me wait a day and a half for the end of a mission is entirely pointless, just costs a huge load of server resources for keeping track of all the timers.

2) What's the point of allowing mining only for one coin at a time, not to mention, there isn't even a point in limiting the speed of mining, meaning the amount of coins one gets in mining per hour.
The amount of coins I get in mining is limited by the amount of crystals I have, 6 crystals are worth 1 hour mining and that's (depending on my HP and the value of the coin) maybe 30 sat, meaning 1 crystal = aprox. 5 sat.
Making me wait 3 hours before I can use the next 18 crystals renders options like "earn more crystals" entirely useless.

Very last point: Please have a look at your random generator, there definitely is something messed up.
I'm not saying you changed percentages on purpose, I'm just saying "something" is messed up and I have no clue what that could be.
From the daily bonus over the amount of sat one gets from missions up to the chances of finding a treasure chest in missions, everything that depends on your random generator lags FAR behind probability.

@Hhampuz
thanks for all the work you've put in to make this campaign a success, it was a pleasure being part of it.

I'd love to be part of about any other campaign that might get launched in the future, but how would I get to know about it?
Is there a preferred channel through which these get announced first?

...... and it's getting increasingly annoying.
Last night I had a hope it was gone, but today it's back and worse than yesterday.
By now this ad seems to have found a way of forcing the redirect even if I stop loading the page completely.
I have to retry 3 or 4 times before I manage to get to the CMG page.

I understand this page lives from ads, but now you're exaggerating.
Every single click anywhere, every page refresh, even closing the browser and reopening the page, redirects me to a Mediaworld ad from where there's no way back to the page.
I see the CMG page for a second or so and a second later I'm at Mediaworld.
Only way to get to the page is stop the page from fully loading within this one second and pray that the page has at least loaded enough so I get the button I want.

Yes it is, thank you.

I don't think there's a DDOS attack that comes reliably every saturday afternoon and lasts until late Sunday, there's only reliably more traffic on the web every weekend.

No need for that.
If I'm mining on level 18 for 3 hours, why would I waste an hour of that to switch to mining something else?
If nothing else, make a "terminate mining" button aside of the "mine" button and then do not allow any mining start while mining is already in progress.

Either way, in ANY case there's no point in allowing a user to click on "mine" of the very same thing he is already mining.
If I'm mining Satoshi for 3 hours, I shouldn't be able to click on mine Satoshi again before those 3 hours are up.

Better would be not allowing to start mining while mining is already in progress.
If you are for example mining Satoshi and you click to mine Litoshi, it will terminate Satoshi mining and launch Litoshi mining, meaning you lose the remaining time you had in Satoshi mining.

Yes, it's a known bug of the start button, which in combination with the quite frequent lag in the site happens often if you don't know about it.
If you click the button, nothing happens because there's a lag and you click again, it subtracts crystals twice.
Solution: If you click and nothing happens, refresh the page or close your browser and reopen the page completely.

How does the exchange within the VMP work?
I can't even figure out who gets and who gives.
If I for example set "get Satoshi" and "give Crystal", do I as the VMP owner get Satoshi and give Crystal, or the other way around or am I not involved at all and users are trading with the system?

It's the same as for me with the daily bonus.
Admin says the numbers haven't changed, but for "some reason" for the last 6 weeks straight I'm getting far less times Energy and/or HP than I used to get before, way less than the 10% + 5% should be.
I also have the impression I'm finding less chests in missions than the percentages would suggest, not none, just less.
But then, 6 weeks is a far too small sample to call the result significant, so for the time being we just have to trust the admin and call it bad luck.

Might be interesting, if other users would post their results here as well, so we could collect a larger sample.

It's not the check level, but the fact that the script tries to fit DDOS checking in between a click on a shortlink and the redirect to the shortlink, which results in the error "too many redirects".
If I know it's time for the next DDOS check and I refresh the page to launch the DDOS check, before refilling energy through a shortlink, there is no error.

1. and 2. have the same origin, happens also when clicking the button to start virtual mining.
This bug has been introduced about a month ago.
Since I never used any shortcut to bypass shortlinks (or whatever else this was about) I cannot tell, but I assume this bug comes from a faulty protection against this.

3. What he means is, if you close a message, i.e. the notification that 5000 new chests have been added and you refresh the page or click anywhere right after, the message reappears, while other messages, i.e. when finding a silver chest in a mission, after closing the message and refreshing the page right after, do not reappear.
Solution to that is: You have to wait a short while between closing a message and doing the next thing.

Furthermore theres still the 500 server error all over the place, caused by a faulty implementation of DDOS checking.

Sorry to inform you.
Even without your jackpot, we're again at 30-60 seconds per click.

Thanks and yes I can confirm, for the time being the site is halfway fast again.

Not sure what the update was about, but it wasn't about the lag.
Right now we're again at an extreme lag, takes roughly 30-60 seconds per click.

Yes there is a bug, resulting in "500 internal server error" very frequently.
I've reported it weeks ago and repeated it 5 posts above this one.
