The forum sells ad space in the area beneath the first post of every topic page. This income is used primarily to cover hosting costs and to pay moderators for their work (there are many moderators, so each moderator gets only a small amount -- moderators should be seen as volunteers, not employees). Any leftover amount is typically either saved for future expenses or otherwise reinvested into the forum or the ecosystem.

There are 10 total ad slots which are randomly rotated. So one ad slot has a one in ten chance of appearing. Nine of the slots are for sale here. Ads appear only on topic pages with more than one post. Hero/Legendary members, Donators, VIPs, and moderators have the ability to disable ads; these people don't increase the impression stats for your ads.

Design & ad restrictions

Ad text may not contain lies, misrepresentation, or inappropriate language. Ads may not link directly to any NSFW page. No ICOs^[1], loggable mixers^[2], banks, funds, or anything that a person can be said to "invest" in; I may very rarely make exceptions if you convince me that you are ultra legit, but don't count on it. Ads may be rejected for other reasons, and I may remove ads even after they are accepted.

See the ad design rules for info on designing forum ads.

When advertising a new service, you should always check with me in advance whether your service is OK. I will sometimes accept bids of people who don't do this, but such people are taking the risk of being rejected at the last minute. It's also a good idea for you to have me check your ad's HTML+CSS in advance, especially if this is your first time advertising.

Duration/timing

 - Ad slots won in this auction will run from noon May 10 (US Eastern time) to noon June 9. (30 days.)
 - This auction will end sometime between April 30 and May 5, but May 3 is most likely.
 - You must pay within 48 hours of the auction ending. Only Bitcoin is accepted. If you fail to pay in time, your ad slots may be resold, and in cases where I feel that you're acting in bad faith, I may even give you a negative trust rating.
 - You must send me a valid ad (ie. one not breaking any of the styling or other rules) before noon May 9. If you fail to send a valid ad in time, then the ad round will start without you, and you will be "burning time". You can still send an ad after the deadline, and usually this ad will be put up fairly quickly, but no particular timeline is guaranteed after the deadline.
 - If extended downtime or similar issues cause your ad not to be displayed for a long time, we generally give prorated refunds (USD-denominated) for the lost time, but this is not guaranteed.

Auction rules

New members are likely to have their bids rejected unless they PM me first, telling me what they're going to advertise. New members might also be required to pay some amount in advance. Additionally, if you have never purchased forum ad space before, and it is not blatantly obvious what you're going to advertise, say what you're going to advertise in your first bid, or tell me in a PM.

Post your bids in this thread. Prices must be stated in mBTC per slot. (10 mBTC = 0.01 BTC.) You must state the maximum number of slots you want. When the auction ends, the highest bidders will have their slots filled until all nine slots are filled.

So if someone bids for 9 slots @ 50 mBTC and this is the highest bid, then he'll get all 9 slots. If the two highest bids are 9 slots @ 40 mBTC and 1 slot @ 50 mBTC, then the first person will get 8 slots and the second person will get 1 slot.

The notation "2 @ 50" means 2 slots for 50 mBTC each. Not 2 slots for 50 mBTC total.

- When you post a bid, the bids in your previous posts are considered to be automatically canceled. You can put multiple bids in one post, however, like "5 @ 10 and 1 @ 50".
- All bid prices must be evenly divisible by 2 mBTC.
- The bidding starts at 2 mBTC.
- The auction ends at an arbitrary time between April 30 and May 5. Times closer to 8:00AM May 3 (US Eastern time) are more likely.
- If two people bid at the same price, the person who bid first will have his slots filled first.

If these rules are confusing, look at some of the past forum ad auctions to see how it's done.

I reserve the right to reject bids, even days after the bid is made.

Price flattening

At the end of the auction, after the winning bids are all determined, I will do a "price flattening" operation. This has no effect on which bids actually win, but is instead just meant to make the prices actually paid by bidders more equal. For each bid, in order of lowest to greatest price/slot, I will reduce each bid's price/slot to the highest value which is equal to or only the minimum increment greater than the next-lower bid. This allows you to bid higher prices without worrying so much, but you still mustn't bid more than you're willing to pay. Example:


Payment, etc.

You must pay for your slots within 48 hours of receiving the payment address. Otherwise your slots may be sold to someone else, and I might even give you a negative trust rating. I will send you the payment information via forum PM from this account ("theymos", user ID 35) after announcing the auction results in this thread. You might receive false payment information from scammers pretending to be me. They might even have somewhat similar usernames. Be careful.

This was to some degree inspired by ibminer's forum trading cards. How I envisioned it was basically like MTGox cards of different rarities. For every 365 activity (= "1 forum-activity-year") a user had, the system "designed" 1 distinct "card" for that user. Multiple copies of one card design could exist, just as there are multiple copies of the Black Lotus MTG card design in existence. The more activity a user had, the more distinct card designs would exist for them, each at a higher rarity. So if you had 2000 activity, there would be 5 distinct card designs of rarities I to V, each of which could have multiple copies in existence. A special exception was made for satoshi, who had 3 card designs at rarities IX, X, and XI even though he has 364 activity and would therefore normally have no card designs.

When you rolled for a random card, 99% of the time you would get a copy of a card design chosen randomly from all 30670 distinct card designs. But the vast majority of those are low-rarity, so to improve your chances a bit, 1% of the time you would instead get a random card design from all designs with rarity IV or above.

Unlike "real" NFTs, two copies of the same card design were in fact totally fungible, though in terms of scarcity I don't think that there's actually much real difference between how this works and how eg. NBA Top Shot or MTG work -- the issuer can still create as many copies of a card as they want.

I'm glad people enjoyed the game, and thanks to everyone who spent some time on it! It would've been pretty disappointing and boring if everyone had just gotten 20 random drops and then forgotten about it, but I was happy to see a lot of trading and collecting. I have zero interest in creating this myself, but I think that some people might actually enjoy a fully-fleshed-out, real NFT collectible system similar to how this worked. IMO any decent collectible system should incorporate some sort of art, though, even if the art is automatically-generated.


Trades weren't logged, unfortunately.

Here's a dump of the final balances and fNFT ownership:
https://bitcointalk.org/af2021.txt.xz

Wow, nice collection!


I'm happy that someone got a satoshi fNFT! The probability was so low I was worried that nobody would see him.

It is possible to get satoshi, but the probability is only about 0.03% per roll, so someone will have to get awfully lucky.

Many forum users have invested a lot of time into the forum, so why not turn this time-equity into tradeable commodities? You can now trade forum NFTs (fNFTs):
https://bitcointalk.org/fnft.php

We are using a state-of-the-art blockless-blockchain-database to avoid any annoying fees or wait times. Everything is done using a convenient Web interface. We have also automatically detected how many bitcoins you have to trade with, so no need to worry about deposits or withdrawals.

Features:
 - You automatically get the full set of fNFTs in your own series, from lowest rarity (I) to highest rarity (up to XI). The number of fNFTs in your series depends on your activity. Note that more than one copy of a particular fNFT can exist in the system: they're like trading cards, with rarities.
 - You can get a random fNFT for 50 BTC. A great deal, no? How could you not make money long-term?
 - You can list any of your fNFTs for sale.
 - You can buy fNFTs listed for sale by others.

I've been thinking that these auctions happen unnecessarily frequently, so note that I am changing the way that ad-round and auction durations work:

So your ads will now be up for 29 days instead of ~11 days, and I'm giving more precision about the other times. Future rounds will (according to my current thinking, at least) not always be 29 days long exactly, but will be 30 days plus or minus a few days. The end time for the auction is still arbitrary, but I'm giving a "rough target time": sort of like the center of a probability density function.

Let me know if you have strong feelings one way or another about these changes.

I've increasingly realized over the years that the limiting factor for any project, and especially for big "dream projects" like this, is time/effort/skill/ambition, not money. I'd be willing to throw money at a realistic project to create a seastead (or a land-based increased-autonomy region), but do I want to spend hundreds of hours working on it? Not really. It's something I'd like to see exist and maybe someday live in, but it's not my passion.

Elwar spent massive amounts of time and money to actually create a seastead, and in the end it was stolen from him and he almost died... I admire the effort he went through the first time, and I admire even more the fact that he's still working on it. But while I wouldn't require nightly cocktails and endless buffets, unlike true pioneers like Elwar, I'd like to at least be pretty confident in the safety and stability of a seastead before I'd consider moving to one. For people like me, I suppose the best thing to do would be to donate to https://www.seasteading.org (accepts BTC!) and wait for the space to mature.

I don't have any special way of verifying this, but if true it's very sad. Tecshare and I had some disagreements, but he was definitely a good person, and we were able to have a constructive relationship despite our disagreements. His feedback influenced a lot of the adjustments to the trust system over the years, for example.

One fairly-recent thing which is maybe not widely-known was that in order to help Elwar escape Thailand, TECSHARE was posting false information about Elwar's activities in order to hopefully lead Thai officials on the wrong track. He did what he could to help someone in need!

Rest in peace.
