Just FYI, after I posted that my sales yesterday were strong, the sales pretty much stopped. No need for minute by minute updates I know, just wanted to make a little correction to my post.


Oh man. This just reminded me of the 1970's gasoline prank.

You know the one where a guy in the office is bragging about his car's gas mileage back in 1975 or so. So every day you put half a gallon into his tank. Then a full gallon. Then more, and more... eventually he's telling this incredible story... then you siphon some back out every day.

Imagine what $L 10,000 could do if you got some alts and frequented the businesses of some small but forum-active content creators...

Evil? Yeah, probably... what a shame though! Could be fun...

Please feel free to send your alts and their L$10,000 to my shop. I promise to watch my sales every day and report back all the crazy fluctuations. If they spend L$20,000 I will throw in some drama and sweeping proclimations about the economy.

:D

p.s. Have them rent some land in my estate too, that will really throw me for a loop! :D

Nothing evil about it. I'm with Atashi - organise it and include my place. I'm dead curious how you'd manage the equivalent of siphoning some back out :D
