  1. But they aren't two seperate things. You are using the calculator to work out the "exact amount of resource usage for each involved nation and then automatically send raws to them" based on that calculator data. The code for both the calculation and sending the resources is literally in the same file and called from the same main method. It's like the text book definition of what Alex has said was against the rules

    I am glad I am not the only one who refers to BoC by the version number
  3. Wow you must not have met Psweet if you think he is a backstabber. Also, the only reason he is calling them out is because Psweet doesn't agree with his suggestion here: And instead of answering psweet arguments he ignores them and tries to discredit Psweet by posting this stuff
  4. Why are you posting something from more than a year ago?
  5. His signature has been like that for more than a year now
  6. oh thank you. I haven't laughed so much in a while
  7. I can now confirm that this auction is now over. Bidders will now be approached by myself to request how many shares they wish to purchase. Don't worry if you do not get messaged immediately. Sometimes it takes a few days to get through different people. Thanks!
  8. Share Auction Bidding thread Welcome to the second SO Share auction. Before bidding please read all of the instructions and rules below. This makes sure that you won't be surprised when we ask you to do something. It also means you won't be wasting money by doing silly things. If you wish to review any of our accounts or last months financial report then please see here Instructions When you place a bid you are stating the price per share which you wish to buy a minimum of 10,000 shares for. The Minimum Price per share at this auction is $30 We are selling a maximum of 70 million shares (nearly a quarter of the entire company) at the auction. It will run until 8 pm in-game time on Saturday the 19th. You do not have to outbid any person to be able to purchase shares. Share sales will go down the list from highest bidder to the lowest bidder until either all shares are sold or there is no one left to purchase shares. You are allowed to place multiple bids. However, at the end of the auction the highest bid placed by each bidder will count as their official bid. If you have any question then please message myself or Psweet. Do Not post in this thread because it will interrupt any bidding. Once the time limit has been reached all bids will be recorded and starting from the highest bidder they will be approached to ask how many shares they wish to purchase. Then the next highest bidder and so on until either all shares are sold or there is no one left to purchase shares. Financing Options If you don't have money on your nation right now but still want to take part in this auction, then don't worry we offer our standard SO loans The maximum amount you will be able to loan from SO to purchase the shares will be calculated on a case by case situation when you are approached to purchase shares. This loan will have interest attached to it meaning you will need to pay the weekly interest by the following Friday like our normal loans. However, with these loans there is an additional condition. If you do not pay the minimum payment for two consecutive weeks then all the shares that you have purchased will be returned to Stratton Oakmont ownership and your loan will be removed from our books. No matter how much you have paid so far. Rules Private institutions (banks, mutual funds, insurance companies, etc.) are forbidden from the auction. Alliances and individual members of institutions may bid, but they will be asked to show evidence that the money they use to do so is theirs and they are not a proxy of the institution they belong to. Any edited posts in the bidding will be disqualified, so make a new post to bid again. We expect the highest level of integrity from our bidders, and any hint of foul play will lead to a disqualified bid May the bidding commence
  9. Friends and potential investors! We have an important announcement to make! Stratton Oakmont will soon be conducting its second ever public auction of shares. Shares give literal ownership of the company, including a portion of dividends declared by the Board of Directors, the ability to vote for said Board every two months, and the right to sell your shares privately to another buyer whenever you wish to. We are selling a maximum of 70 million shares (nearly a quarter of the entire company) at the auction. It will run from the evening of Saturday the 12th of August (US EDT) to just before midnight on Saturday the 19th. The auction will feature bidding on price per share. The highest bidder gets to buy as much as he/she wants to, or can afford to (Standard SO loans will be available for those temporarily down on their luck). Once they have done so, the second highest bidder will be allowed to buy as much as able/wanted, and so on until either all bidders have bought their fill, or no more shares remain to be sold. This means, obviously, you do not have to have the highest bid to obtain shares. Minimum bid will be $30 per share, minimum buy upon winning a bid is 1000 shares. Don't bid if you want or can afford fewer shares than that. Lastly, a small note that private institutions (banks, mutual funds, insurance companies, etc.) are forbidden from the auction. Alliances and individual members of institutions may bid, but they will be asked to show evidence that the money they use to do so is theirs and they are not a proxy of the institution they belong to. I hope to see you all in the next week. We're excited to be opening our doors to public investment at long last, and I hope many of you are excited at the chance to become an owner.

  16. Greetings Orbis, If Keno and Dice are growing boring for you, luckily we have good news. Stratton Oakmont presents a lottery, the likes of which have never been seen before on Orbis. Each ticket bought in the Stratton Oakmont lottery goes into a weekly draw and a jackpot draw. 90% of each ticket purchase will go into the draws with half of that percentage going into the weekly draw and the other half going into the big jackpot. Now you may ask “Won’t that make each jackpot equal?†the answer is no. The weekly draw will be guaranteed to pay out to one lucky winner each week (with a minimum of $2.5 million) whereas the big jackpot will have a 25% chance of paying out each week. Should the jackpot not pay out, the current amount of the jackpot will rollover to the next week. This gives a 90% chance of paying out at least once over 8 weeks. The winning ticket will be chosen by a random number generator with three blank tickets being generated for each ticket bought and added to the overall jackpot draw ticket pool. For example, if 100 tickets are purchased then the numbers 1-100 will be assigned for both the weekly and the jackpot draw. Then for the jackpot draw, 300 more tickets would be added bringing the total to 400 tickets. If no one wins the jackpot that week the jackpot amount will be transferred over to the next week. The next ticket sold will be #1 for the weekly draw and #1 for the jackpot. To win the jackpot draw for a given week, a new ticket must be purchased each week. For instance, If a person were to buy 5 tickets in week #1 when the jackpot does not payout and only buy one ticket for week #2, in the jackpot drawing for week #2 they will only have one entry, not six. Costs: Each ticket will cost $100,000 with $45,000 going to the weekly lottery and $45,000 going to the jackpot draw. Draws will be held every Wednesday Night server time. If you wish to purchase a ticket then please direct your payments to Brandon Donsberger. We suggest that you message Brandon when you send the ticket money just to confirm your purchase
