Doing good, higher value

Since the kingdom of nocte is thriving so superiorly, the value of the wc has gone up, now

1 uc = 92 wc


YAY for us!
Archaic

Yay for Nocte and its recent success! I say we all go to the tavern and have drinks on Schmall. And after we get off of him he can have some too!
Koku

oh joy I am so happy about thatnot I think this just makes my work a little bit more annoying at times.
Archaic

How does it make your work harder... only the WC changes values so unless Billgar uses it more often, it only effects like 2 people here.
Billgar

Exactly, just two. However if you had traded ina ll of your currency for WC before this happened, then traded it all back you wouldve made a profit!
Archaic

Oh so now theres a bit of a stock market going on with the site eh. In times of popularity I may have to tempt it by putting a few GC into WC or something.
Billgar

BUT WHAT IS THE VALUE FALLS!!!!!!
it would be the end!

*looks around*
Im in despair! the state of the currency rise and fall has left me in despair!
*hangs self*

Calm yourself Zetusbo it will become an active kingdom very soon, I can feel it. Just wait till Monday.

What if there was a small stock market and currency exchange here, and the stocks themselves would be based off of real ones that have similar companies in like NASDAQ or NYSE.  It might be a little complex, so it would start small first.
Schmall

wait a sec, gonna pig pile on my character and he is not even active to protect himself!?!?  how rude  I will get revenge!!
Koku

Right... getting back on topic the stock thing would get way too annoying to calculate. I do not want to need to check it every few hours or even every day. The idea is not bad, but there would need to be an easy way to implement it.
Beanbaker

well you could just do the calculations as a daily value instead of currrent, up-to-date values.  It would be very easy to write out once a day, and if the caretaker leaves, then the market is closed for the day.
Archaic

But that would mean paying attention to something relevant to life.... whereas Nocte is meant to be an escape from the pains of life. I say nay to the evilness of real stocks!
Beanbaker

Well, how would we determine stocks' rise and fall?  I would suggest some way involved with random numbers, but it would make it more of a lottery than a stock market.
Koku

If anything it could be based off materials here such as iron, gold, orcht berries, whatever. The stocks can fluctuate, but it will be very annoying.
Archaic

By stockmarket I was just talking about currency raising and falling in value and being able to profit from it. The way it would raise and fall is simp[ly based upon the activity that LE is seeing. Its a rather simple way.
Beanbaker

I know, I was talking about another idea.  Also, by using real stock values that the company is based off of that is similar to a company in Nocte (like for example, Colt industries, which makes guns [weapons], can be used to make stocks for the forge, and DuPont for stocks in orbs).
Koku

no no real stocks at all. If anything it would be fake stocks from here. It is MUCH easier to do over a long period of time, but it is still a lot of work.

that is an interesting an unpredictable way of approaching it, but i feel as though it would become too much.
Beanbaker

That is why it would start small first.  There would be currency exchange at first, then if things stay smooth, then a stock system could be worked out.  I could see things would get out of hand if there were a ton of stock opportunities, and I'm open for other ways.  Although I would have to argue that using random numbers such as dice would make things too chaotic and random, and make it more of a gamble.
Schmall

I feel that it will become a hassle.  The stock idea will need to be constantly updated and that is more work away from other cool RPs and item creation instead.  If we are gonna persue this idea though, I reccommend a casinoe then.  A place to gamble.
Koku

That would not be all too bad of an idea, just as long as it is limited to about one play per day or something as to make it easier on the Admins who would have to keep track of the fluctuating money.

That might be more than a doable idea, we could have a bunch of different games and whatnot and maybe i could set up some type of system where you wont need an admin or mod? Not so sure, but we shall see. Anyways maybe itll just be mod run but with the forwarning that it might take a while for a response. I would like to give priority right now to the belt system which i may work on this sunday, and more summons first. I know we need armor as well but id rather get a larger base of summons out, unless of course that is i hear a demand for armor over beasts.
Beanbaker

Whatever order of things comes is fine with me, just throwing out suggestions for the long run.  No big rush really.
Billgar

Thanks for understanding illustrations take quite some time(not really but i decent amount, i do try and do other things too....sometimes....mostly anime and karate......with kiseru breaks)....bah
