Popular Post Hatebi Posted February 19 Popular Post Share Posted February 19 (edited) Update: All wheel slots have been purchased. Tune in 30-40 minutes before DC on Saturday to catch the wheel spin live. See you then! A warm Arrgh welcome to the very first... Wheel of Misfortune! You've heard of our world-class nuke auctions, now get ready for the next evolution in nuke-based griefing: The Nuke Lottery! How it Works For the jaw-droppingly low price of $100M you can get an alliance of your choosing added to the Wheel of Misfortune. Upon the conclusion of the lottery, we'll be spinning the wheel live in the Arrgh server's public VC. Whoever's unlucky enough to be chosen by fate will be obliterated with the force of a thousand suns (like 3 to 4 dozen pirates with IEDs) right then and there. We'll be blasting 'em with everything we've got for 2-3 rounds.  How to Buy Wheel Slots If you'd like to buy some slots on the wheel, you can do so by either making a ticket in the Arrgh server or by hitting up your hostess with the mostess (me) on discord. Wheel slots go for $100M a piece and do not have a limit per person. That said, we've only got enough space on the wheel for 100 slots total. All alliances are on the table here, except for tiny micros and our besties over at Yarr. Payment is required up-front and can be sent directly to the Arrgh bank. Trades work too. Just make sure to get permission from T$.  Schedule February 19th DC: Ticket sales open. February 21st DC: Halftime Report. Alliances currently on the wheel and their number of slots are posted. February 23rd DC: Ticket sales close. February 24th, half an hour before DC: The wheel is spun live in the Arrgh Server. Hilarity ensues.  Misc. Stuff As usual, fully anonymity. We won't reveal who you purchase tickets on. The wheel spin will be streamed exactly half an hour before DC with a 10 minute countdown leading up to it. Being mute is actually a little known requirement for holding a gov position in Arrgh, so don't expect a big fancy show.  Good luck to all and may the best farmer win! - - - - - Halftime Report! Welcome back to the Wheel of Misfortune. Let's take a look at the current alliances on the wheel: Aurora - 4 Slots The Syndicate - 3 Slots The Immortals - 1 Slot Some real great nuke candidates up there. We've got 92 slots left, so if you'd like to get someone added, now's the time to do it. Ticket sales end at Friday's DC. Edited February 22 by Hatebi Ticket sales are now closed. 3 33 9 Quote rad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't lie. I'm eyeballing this. It's a cool idea. I've never paid anyone to nuke rogue another nation, but this is enticing. I love the chaotic nature of it.

If it was $10m per ticket, maybe amount they would sell would more than compensate for the lower price. Anyone can afford wasting $10m without caring, not as many $100m. However already know this is sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However already know this is sold out. Why would they decrease cost to sell more when they only had room for 100 on the wheel? Limited supply + obvious demand = higher price. Simple economics. If anything, the price obviously should've/could've been higher.

If they only sold 7 out 100, would make sense to lower. If they barely dented the cap? (Doesn't matter much I guess though.) If charging 50m, would just need to sell more than double 7; with a lot more being able to afford it. However they still got 700m, decent.
