Well I know we can use API to input stock prices which is something I do daily for spreadsheets and it's accurate and fast. Also, it's protecting the money just as good as any bank would anyway. Also...you have to be out of blockade, so it'd work anyway

For the copyright issue, we never directly issue apple stock, just a simulation and I've seen various games do it before (I'm not saying that makes it legal. I'll look into it) and then we can have a huge disclaimer saying "YOU ARE BUYING FICTIONAL ONLINE STOCK WITH PNW MONEY THAT DOESN'T HAVE ANY EQUIVALENT IN REAL LIFE VALUE" or something of the sort.

Hey everyone! I know PnW resembles irl in many ways and one big part of the community is the economic portion as it helps with growth, savings and much more! As many, or some, people might know, I kinda am obsessed with The Stock Market. For those who do not know, its a way to invest in companies and usually receive a percentage increase in your investment based on the companies performance (There are other factors). Many games that I've played include a fictional stock market and such to increase the community and savings portion of the game. I think with such a simple concept it adds so much. Many people may be concerned that the funds may grow too fast and make the banks go out of business. I would say the opposite. The stock market can have tremendous growth, but at a certain caution and risk. It would also increase the Player Bank's activities and revenue because they could charge to manage people's investments in the stock market. I know, for example, that's something I would be doing. Also, there's the possibility that it screws up the game mechanics and such. To add to the reality of it, I'd say it takes 24 turns to transfer money. During that time, the money is unavailable to use or buy stocks with. Once its in the stock account, it will get NO interest unless invested. In order to transfer and withdraw money, one must also not be blockaded!! I really don't know all the specifics yet but I was also thinking like maybe a 500k charge for every complete buy. (Makes it more of a long-term savings for bigger players). Yeah everyone, please comment suggestions for it! Also, for the selections of stocks, I was thinking like the top x number of companies globally and some other top ones that're recommended! Thanks everyone! Please comment what you think of the idea and any suggestions/feedback! Kyle EDIT: Just to be clear these are IRL companies like (Apple, Samsung, Tesla, etc. Not alliances and orbis businesses)

Why does it seem AO is always in a war? Well ig they aren't now...but still EDIT: I'm not throwing shade, I think AO is pretty cool and all (Kastor is also hilarious)

@IQ Nominate me please! lol I just want to have a fun legal argument

I thought there was some papers war?

I'm just a bit confused as to what TKR is trying to accomplish.... "An unknown nation has executed an espionage operation against your country. They successfully detonated an explosive in a barracks in your nation. 171 of your soldiers were killed." Welp, guess who cannot raid for the next month now! I demand my $342 in war reparations! You have crippled the other 200 soldiers with the 7.5k tanks.... Also, my 1 ship was destroyed by their 50. Without a ship and my soldiers... looks like Arrgh! will just have to surrender. But in all honesty, when I wasn't in Arrgh I suggested a huge strike on Arrgh to just eliminate them... All the smart leaders (No offense IQ) said it wouldn't work, because it wouldn't actually hurt them very much. The most TKR can really do is increase market prices to help us sell our loot after (Thanks for that btw) But yeah. Anyone from TKR want to explain what their ideal situation for this war is lmao?

So you just want to lose money? Like hundreds of millions lmao?

I'm confused as to why IQ is attacking... you can't really kill pirates and militarizing and de-mill will cost them tons already lmao. Arrgh!

IMU sells nations.... Lolo says Tulip is worth 135mil. Ask lolo to see your price xD

I'm worth 45mil...apparently

Lolo repeatedly says "I have missiles, Orbis will pay for its crimes" xD

Hello everyone, Especially leaders of Orbis. As we all very well know, there is a hidden power thats lurks in the shadows, secretly controlling Politics and War, and everything that happens. They are the strongest alliance to ever be created. Their cities tower over even the best. Their military experience towers over the smartest and strongest, and their knowledge of the game is more than even Alex's. We're all thinking of the same alliance. The Imperial Metric Union. One of their leaders, Lolo, has given us all a chance to surrender, and I saw we save our members and friends! We need to raise the white flag! Don't let their 2 cities fool you.... Lolo has promised vengeance on Orbis when most banks wouldn't give him a loan. So... Lolo, spare us all! Also, leaders, surrender while we still can. Sincerely, Kyle N Update: Turns out Lolo says he can buy members and sell them on the black market......

Ok thank you!

haha ok yeah thanks!

Hey everyone! (I hope this is the right sub-forums) But I was wondering at what point it becomes more cost effective infra wise to go to 2.5k, or 3k for example instead of building another city. I think the solution is just to graph the infra price and city costs and see when they intersect and such. For some reason when I graph city prices it was just a straight line and I don't know why.... City Price: y=50000(x-1)^3+150000x+75000 Infra: Per Level:[((x-10)^2.2/710]+300 Yeah thanks! If this has been done before, just lmk! Have a great day!

Wow, there are a lot of replies xD, but I'd go with Hamilton and some pop

Sounds Cool! I'd support

is that a nomination?

Hello! Anyone here selling bulk steel for 4k a piece? I'd prob like to get about 1k of it atleast, but depending on how much $ I have. I'll be having lower taxes soon, so more $ to spend.

Hey, anyone buying hundreds of iron for between buying and selling price? Edit^ I'd be interested in economic partnership

for that I mean higher than selling price But, it would still be lower than the buying price for coal so we both win to form economic partnership and reason above

Update: Polls will be released sometime on Sunday most likely. Have all nominations set in by then

Hey I am someone who makes coal and iron. Looking to sell it at a bit higher than market price

why doesn't The Inquisition like me?
