I dont ever plan on playing the RPG, so as you can tell, my cash has just been pilling up. So ... I'll act as a type of lottery.
To play, contact me on MSN, AIM, or ICQ and tell me you are about to send me 50 ore. Wait for me to OK it, I will go to my bank and make sure that I have 0 ore out and all ore in. After you transfer the 50 ore to me, give me any number inbetween 0 and 1000.
The person with the closest number to the one I have already chosen wins the pot (what everyone contributed when they gave me a number) and 500 of my ore. I will do this 4 times because all I have is 2k ore.
EDIT: You can give me as many numbers as you want. I just need 50 ore per number.
I will announce winner Tuesday. That way the interest will help me continue to run the lottery.
750 ore = Jackpot as of right now.
Giving 200 to enter, I suggest Spaceboy to do his part too *COUGH*
And Yoshi perhaps...
Nah, leave me out. The forum lottery function doesn't work....yet.
Of course not, thats why I'm doing this Yoshi. C'mon, enter at least once!
Yah. High rankers need to let off their money to the people! Chu is the government and we pay taxes to him! Then he redistributes them to the nation!!
Wait a minute.......
Hmmm... Give me 50 minerals then I will

STFU, you can just MAKE 50 ore and give it to yourself.

At least supply me with more cash so I can increase the lottery amount.

Can't I just PM you?
Or even post it?
I refuse to use/have MSN, AIM, or ICQ.
And I've got plenty(3.7k??) of minerals to give to you. Of course, I'm not giving them all

Technically, I could mod the forums so a certain % of your money gets taken away. That would mean the more money you have, the more you get taxed. Meaning you'd have to make more posts near the top. Interesting idea...
Heh, I make 1k of money everyday. And I have enough money to buy every multiple of five, and almost guaranteeing me the jackpot. Not exactly fair, and I don't feel like betting now.
Yoshi, maybe you can mod the RPG to the point where have shops owned by forumers, and they buy stuff and sell stuff, perhaps from some source. And maybe we can have jobs too, where people actually work for other forumers for wages and such.
Huh. If I wanted to try my best, I could guess 768 numbers without runnng out of money. I'd almost surely win.
In fact, if I did try 768 different numbers, I'd still have an amazing...*GASP* 1 mineral left!!!
lol
Taximg would look interesting, as well as REMOVING THE BANK!... We talked about that and you said you would think about it. Interests are just making a HUGE gap between rich and poor members, that's all it does. Perhaps you will want to lower the amount of certain items, though, if this applies.
Jobs doesn't look fine to me, would only, once again, give power to rich people and get poor ones make the work...
Chu, you should put a limit on numbers to bet.... DUnno... Just in case.
Hmm, I think interest is fine (Hey, what'd you expect me to say?) BUT it should charge fees for withdrawing and depositing. That way, people won't stick every ounce of money into the bank. And maybe let battles drain money from the bank too.
Drain as many minerals as, say, your next interest payment will be. Haha. That would take out plenty of money.
I'm just pissed at the interest not working for me and other people, and working 100% for Spaceboy. In about 2 weeks, I got about 2 days of interests.
I received 700$ since I was the only one that bid... Which makes 500 + 200... TY Chu.
