    How about...alliance banks? Why people insist on these external banks, I still don't understand. 6% interest is huge compared to the 0% interest a well managed alliance bank charges. So who is your market? Awful micros? Are macros that bad at money management? Do people not ask their allies for loans?

     

    This bank should be unnecessary. 

    6% per month, not week. This is a lot cheaper than anything else out there.

    An official Statement from Yarr!

    Yarr and it's leader cctmsp13 want it to be known, this bank is not associated with Yarr other than it being managed by a Yarr member.  The alliance of Yarr holds no responsibility for investments lost due to bad loans.

    Of course, I will tolerate my members committing outright fraud, so if you have suspicion of such feel free to contact me, however even in such a case Yarr will not reimburse more than we can seize from Seb's account with us.

    That said, I have reached an agreement with Seb to take the extraordinary step of (slightly) opening Yarr's books.  Seb has agreed that any client or investor in this bank may request to know the balance of Seb's account (both cash and resources) with Yarr.

    note Seb is someone else ingame now. I am Utter Nutter so when asking for my balance, ask for me!!!

    Banking in game (or irl) is based on credits and the risk assessment of the lenders. Good luck getting a single customer. If you're not a risk taker, business isn't for you.

    you don't understand banking irl it seems. Large loans are done with collateral. This is called a Mortgage. The only thing in PW that can act as collateral is resources.

  4. Hello my friends. After a good amount of time I have decided to once again open a bank.

    How would this time work? I have pondered the issues of banking and its risks at length and came up with what I think is a great solution.

    first of all, I wanted to find a way to secure our assets against possible scammers. Secondly, I wanted to offer our clients a lower rate than they are accustomed to. to do this I did the following:

    1) Clients taking loans must deposit an equal amount of resources as collateral. This is very handy for most since alliances and individuals usually keep large sums of resources for war. With our loans, they can liquify that warchest into cash to further their growth and get back the resources when they actually need it.

    2) Rates will be a fixed 6% monthly.

    3) Since these type of loans will likely be long term there will be a minimum of 1 month loans and instead of a weekly return, there will be a monthly return. This will also make it easy for management. If for some reason the client needs to cancel the loan and get their resources back they can do so at any time and not necessarily at the end of the fiscal month.

    4) Investors are welcome to bring your extra cash, you will be paid and your money will be insured completely this time.

    5) join us in your brand new server https://discord.gg/hwGwvar9 and help us start this revolution!!

    so using the commerce rate example, it takes it from 5% to 10% or something like that

     

    this would be largely beneficial to whales with an already inflated income. You add the chance to add 10% extra commerce and you will see some nations making 5 to 10m more than they did before. 1% benefit is enough to make a difference without destroying the base game.

    Congratulations on the treaty! Looks like FinlayMac is already making moves in his new leader position and I'm excited to see if he can help rebound TEst!

    couldn't agree more. Finlay shows great promise.

    Yarr historically were all ex arrgh that retired, not sure if all of them followed that trend now though 

    most of them are ex pirates but now we are just retired players too stubborn to actually quit.

    Shrug, e404 accepting 150+ people inflates these numbers. I heard that the technical definition of a global is 10 or more alliances in the top 20 involved on both sides combined. 

    it could be argued that this was a small global as it left out more than half of the important alliances but I would still consider it a global war as it was still pretty sizeable.

  9. why does the beige have to last up to 8 days if a full rebuild takes 5?

    I don't mind that it stacks up, but I don't think it needs to be stacked up for over 5 days.

    maybe, we could add a max stack of 5 days and once that is reached (3 total beiges) all other wars automatically expire. This also means the loser will only be plundered 3 times and winners will likely race to be amongst the first 3 beigers thus, encouraging the proper use of beige.

    That would ensure the defender 5 days of uninterrupted beige without nations "sitting" on them.

    Another little tweak could be that a war must have at least 1 attack every 24 hours from either party or the war will expire. That's easily played around but it will also help the whole "sitting" strategy we are so used to to circumvent the purpose of beige.
