The King bids 280 mil for the lot 1-SE-V13 and 355 mil for the lot 2-C-V1, including their respective buildings as always and in this case the workforce as well.
The Earl of White Cross bids 400 mil for 2-C- B1 and 300m for 1-SE-V13.

Moved by the gracious gifts of the Earl of White Cross, WE also want to offer gifts -
The Lot 3-E-F8 to the Wizard (will be enlarged to 6 q by closing the road and created a tax-free haw), and The Lot 3-E-F11 (similarly 6 q, and similarly haw) to the Earl.
That is quite generous of you, YM. I am humbled by the offer and accept it graciously. The Earl of White Cross starts thinking about the rumors of building being allowed again and goes to his study to revisit his architecture designs he has been setting aside for what seems like years...

The Bicentennial Celebration of His Majesty ReignFrom you, we request:
- Announce your willingness publicly in the thread. - Give some gifts to the Wizard Developer, according to your fortune! It is not possible for me to thank him well enough or give 10,000s of CKG as I have done with the other team whom we waited to deliver 100 years ago. If the gifts come from a wider source, may them be regarded as more generous ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) - This must happen in one week, which is the date of the celebration. I would love to attend this glorious celebration of Our King. It is not every day that 200 years passes under the same ruler! I look forward to the night which is sure to be full of the finest wines and delicacies that Crypto Kingdom has to offer. As a gift to the new Wizard Developer, I would be honored if he would accept a 4q section of land I had originally purchased because I think it will skyrocket in value. I still believe this, as it is directly across from the immense cathedral, San Pietro. I hope the lot at 5-C-A3 will be something you can build upon and cherish for generations. As a further gift, I'd like to allot 100,000,000 moneritos to you so you may more easily start the building process on this wonderful space. I hear that you have been working furiously in your castle on some magical things, and hope this gift will allow you to continue doing this to your heart's content.

I didn't understand the ASK/BID previously. I'm not sure i have the silver to sell, so those ASKs may be invalid.

CKS BID:

You can also calculate the buy/sell price of your orders without needing to download the spreadsheet. I will be updating the site frequently with additional features, any feedback is appreciated. Looks great! I love the keyup refresh on the price. Those are the kinds of details that make people love sites like those ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I think if moneritos could be withdrawn and traded in some way, then people can buy and sell CK real estate knowing they can withdraw into the 'real world' if they need to, and that will attract more players/buyers, and so spread the early adopter risk among more people.
I was a little concerned earlier (see above) that the one way direction of XMR (in but not out) would eventually drive the CK property market into the ground making it a bad investment compared to just keeping XMR in your wallet, but the recent changes mentioned by risto in the last few days seem to recognize that potential, and the changes being discussed should prevent that from happening. Well done!! I think the prospects for CK real estate holding their own as an investment have increased substantially. I would completely agree with this statement. The biggest way that you can get involved with Crypto Kingdom is to purchase either an empty plot of land or some land with a building on it already. There is an entire subgame of developing buildings that would be quite interesting to some, I'd guess. You can check out the tutorial here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1PhaDiDa3u6OfER48L571sV7ukpwPu7eau2mvsQgoQJE/edit#gid=524930243Not only will this increase the ownership of the towns (diversifying them and thus increasing value), it will give people more of a "physical hold" on the game. You can *OWN PROPERTY* in the virtual reality that is Crypto Kingdom! Sounds crazy, but virtual property can increase in value, and those gains can be converted to real money. Don't miss the train on the early game-it's still early enough that if you get in now, you can really be in at the beginning. Think about this: there are only 120 players in the game. If we get to 10,000+ players, you will be in the top 1% of land owners. I wouldn't have minded being in that club when Second Life took off... The value of this is compounded by the potential introduction of withdrawing Monero from the CK Universe. That makes this game a fully-operational entity, ripe for speculation. Just something to consider.

It is exciting to note that the official unit of wealth (CKG, or Crypto Kingdom Gold) in Crypto Kingdom hit an ATH of 758,000 moneritos (0.758 XMR) just now!
We are on our way to parity with XMR!!

I want to give a presentation to 20+ devs at work on Monero for one of our weekly "tech talks". Can anyone point me to a powerpoint presentation that would be the most up to date and a decent amount of technical content? This would ideally be something that has been presented before and had a good response from technical types. TIA.

The meeting was really good and we achieved mutual understanding in important matters. It was decided that no details are published just yet because we are in the process of creating a new Constitution for the game. The current version of the Rulebook is from October 2014, and it was deemed necessary to update it and clarify all rules, rights and responsibilities regarding governance to one place. Once the document is ready, it will naturally be published with great fanfare ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) We decided to pay a 1,000 m/CKG dividend to all the gold holders. Woohoo! I'm really exited to get my first gold dividend in a few months ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

The Marquess of Ramsey gazes outward from his castle window. Although no time has passed in the Kingdom, it seems like years of patient waiting has passed in his mind. He congratulates Sphericon for his most justified promotion to Town Council.
He wonders if any beta testers would be so kind as to post some screenshots of the new UI? If it is allowed, of course.
I'd be happy to. Perhaps later today if possible, unless somebody else wants to do it first.

Town Council News
Sphericon has been nominated and voted to the Town Council to replace Paulson and will take part in the Beta Testing phase of the project. Sphericon has shown great enthusiasm and knowledge in game mechanics will be a great addition to the Town Council during this critical time as we prepare for the launch of the next era of the game. Congrats!
Thanks! I'm excited to be involved during this crucial period of the game. I've seen the game and so far I'm excited to see rpietila's vision come to fruition in electronic form. I will be helping to test all the bits of this game and hopefully uncover any bugs that may still be lingering. Can't wait for the release!

The American Pegasus Center For Kids Who Don't Math Good And Want To Do Other Stuff Good Too will be a reality.
OK, but the price of monero needs to be at least 3 TIMES BIGGER than it is now first ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

The Field requires much Labor during summertime, but in the winter there is slack. You can only save the Labor for 2.3/7th of a gameyear (gameyear is redefined to equal a realweek), a careful balance allowing flexible gameplay but not the accumulation of raw Labor for an extended time. If Labor is converted to Work, it can be saved for a longer time (or in the Field's case, Labor was directly converted to potatoes without the intermediate Work phase).
After reading about the farmer's field usage, it got me thinking: is there nothing we can use the fields for in winter? A quick google shows the following items a farmer could be doing during the winter (I am not a farmer, maybe someone who is could elaborate on these): 1. Hauls away the previous years crop from their grain bins to be sold at the elevator.. 2. Works tirelessly on paperwork, closing out the year before and beginning the new year. 3. Attends meetings offered by Agricultural based companies in efforts to learn to be better at his/her job. 4. Completes all of the maintenance needed on his/her equipment to make sure its ready for the following year. Perhaps there could be a way for a farmer to earn income on his field when it is not in use by providing other useful services from his farm during the winter months? Say equipment repair, plant research, inventions which help the farm, to name a few. Maybe a farmer could even participate in some sort of subgame to increase his yield for the next year (much like leveling up your character for a fight). Perhaps he could master Farming I, II, and III which would give him % bonuses on yield. Just thinking out loud...

Because of the recent developments, the King's Coinshop has reset the gold price upwards.
You can now sell your gold to us at 500,000 m/CKG. This is the all-time-high gold price denominated in XMR.
Thank you for the offer, but there is no way I'm going to sell my CKG. Hodling that.
