Announcement concerning the monetary affairs of CK (updated 2017-4-2 14:00 UTC)

1) The accounts Zechariah, Soul and LittleFlock represent more than 1000 entities who own the assets. The accounts are managed by HRH Prince Zechariah.

2) The accounts pledge themselves to maintain the peg 1*E1 = 50,000*M until otherwise announced.

3) The accounts consume 18,704,945,975*M (EUR 374,000) to celebrate the success of the revaluation. This makes the total outstanding amount to be 600,000,000,000*M (EUR 12,000,000). The accounts own 256,266,816,665*M after the maculation (42.7% of M issued).

If they understood the arbitrage opportunity of E1 <--> M3, they probably would have paid you instead of lent you the money Smiley Sorry you can't get there and share your adventures. Hopefully there will be a few more parties to come.

Frankly I don't understand how anything can be more efficient and have value in the knowledge age if it requires one to travel in order to be part of it. Afaics, it going backwards in terms of technology.

I ask the King to take back my CK and return it to the treasury.

I feel I can't contribute to that which I do not understand. And I don't want to leech on his kingdom.

M3 to E1 can just as easily happen on ebay if someone takes the time to make that market. AFAIK game currencies are welcome there. Also, M3 to B1 has arbitrage opportunities via Poloniex or Bittrex pricing (and you can do that without traveling--in fact, a bot could do it why you sleep).

I don't know if you are a Peer, but if I were you, I'd just come first and cause the King to make you a Peer while on your way.

See you in Embassy! Wink

Since I can't make it, Sir Serje can act as my ambassador of wine tasting Smiley

I would be delighted to be your ambassador!


I only have one last question, if I'm generalizethis ambassador that qualifies me for the contest?


He is the King!

I guess that's a yes! And will start preparations!

Wish me luck!

Serje, as one of the Ancients come to honor our lands once more, is officially peered by HM Crichton. Let it be known throughout the Kingdom.

I'm sorry that I'm disappointing everyone but I can't make it!

I wish I could be there from my heart! But it seems that almost all the people from my real life think I'm crazy because I want to go there and people from here are stuck on some shitty excuse about it's a lot of money to lend!

I've tried very hard to convince people that my place is there but they do not agree with me.

All this being said I would like to apologize in from of Sir Risto and in from of HM Crichton!

Please accept my humble apologies they come from deep inside my heart.

If they understood the arbitrage opportunity of E1 <--> M3, they probably would have paid you instead of lent you the money Smiley Sorry you can't get there and share your adventures. Hopefully there will be a few more parties to come.

B1 <--> M3 works as well, but not quite as well.

made some millions of the RWWC dump. Is there a reason that there are only custom swords unlike with the guns?

All NPC have swords but must be outfitted with guns, so I suspect that the custom swords are meant as an heirloom weapon for houses and clans.

Had thought about setting up a thread like this of my own, but nice to have someone else handle the moderation Grin

One thing that has impressed me is the variable economic models at play in CK. For example, gold (CKG) is limited to roughly 1,000,000 units permanently. There is a trading item, HM02B100, which represents the value of 100 CKG. It is currently trading at roughly, 2.25mil M (note: M is the in-game currency). Some items, such as jewelry have gold in them, meaning that they have a certain "base" value in relation to the amount of CKG used in their production. During the pause, for example, I acquired some collectible and jewelry items purely for their gold value, as they traded roughly in line with the prevailing price per CKG, or at a discount. If needed, I can "smelt" these items back into CKG, though that would destroy the item in the process.  

Depending on the other items in the jewelry, you'd also get those back (IE. diamonds, saphires, rubies, pearls, etc). Also, there's a smelting fee to discourage destruction of rare collectibles.

Anyone thinking that the CANN market is dropping below 25mil is deluding themselves. They destroy and protect buildings--those buildings are the main revenue source for land owners, so cheap out on defense at your own peril.

Carriages will go on sale in one half hour

The price points will be 5-50 million--a historical low, but also good entry point for new players. There are only 9 available, with no more in assembly at the moment, so take that into consideration if you think you need one.

Also, we are in the process of interviewing for a head of RWWC's carriage division, so if you are good with marketing and/or efficiency and/or deal brokering, this could be a good opportunity to show-off your skills. RWWC currently owns all the carriage patents, has a labor force  and a factory, so it's a turnkey operation that you can grow to fit your vision.

UPDATE: Carriages, Guns and Cannon listed for sale (I will abstain from buying until 5:18pm UTC--or 8hrs from listing).

Also, for the copper on HMY Mary, one simplified formula for wetted surface area is:
1) WSA = 0.85*LOA*B

Where LOA = the overall length of the hull excluding extensions such as a bow-sprit
B = the maximum beam on the waterline measured in feet

So for HMY Mary, you'd have 2,125 sq feet of copper (0.85*50*18.5), which assumes her maximum beam is at the waterline .  If there were an in-game item of copper sheet, it could be 1:1, or you'd have to determine the thickness of the plates and do a conversion from a weight of copper.  

{EDIT}:  Someone kindly pointed out that we have KMT for bulk copper.  
By the 1760s, standard gage for copper sheathing used by the Royal Navy weighed 28oz per SqFt (8.5kg/m2).

So the Mary would require 59,500oz, or 1686 kg, or 169 KMT.

Looks like all you need to find is "...total passenger capacity, fighting capacity guns/soldiers, speed in knots..."

For passengers we will assume soldiers, mariners and boarded occupants--no humans as cargo.

For fighting capacity we will need the # of cannons (max available) for each ship's length--though this begs the question, what's the shortest and longest length for a yacht?

Speed in knots can be an educated guess based on the build (as long as a range can be calculated on any of these stats, you are golden--you may even want to find a speed at full cargo and at 0 cargo and find the average.

THE YACHTING CHALLENGE



We would like someone to define the attributes of the HMY ROYAL ESCAPE, the HMS MERLIN and the HMY MARY.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMY_Royal_Escape
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Merlin_(1666)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMY_Mary

These will include: How much lumber used in meters, shipping capacity/tonnage, total passenger capacity, fighting capacity guns/soldiers, speed in knots, and in the case of HMY MARY, who much copper was used in its production.

We require the calculations used to determine these attributes, and for this, we will give the title of King's Ship Maker, a one time medal to honor the contributor(s), and 10,000 CKG (total).

You may work alone or in a team, but please state your party members in the presentation of the calculations used to determine these values.

Update: The stats for each ship do not have to be historically accurate as long as the equations to calculate give realistic results. The goal here is to create a range of builds that can be plugged into a yacht editor similar to the building editor.

Grin Damb this seems complicated.  I do not think my character is going to make it thru the winter.  Cheesy Lips sealed

Martti's a good companion for staying alive and wealthy in the Kingdom. Also, IRC ##crypto-kingdom and here are good places to ask questions and learn the fundamentals.

OFF TOPIC SPAM APPEAL TO BULLSHIT
 
  
This is a Pepecash and Rare Pepe topic.  Please take your CryptoKingdom spam somewhere else.  
  
If you are looking for centralized game assets, CryptoKingdom pales in comparison to offerings from already established game providers like Nexon: http://maple.fm/scania  
  
CryptoKingdom is a centralized game token.  Rare Pepes are decentralized blockchain technology.  There is no comparison.  End of story.  
  
You are trying to talk about outdated board games and business models and we are busy concerning ourselves with the future of game assets.

Not sure why anyone from CK is posting here, but let me just say two things: CryptoKingdom allows for feeless trading of depository shares along with a host of in-game companies, consumables and assets, so why anyone thinks it is competition with a card game is beyond me.

Also, any thing you want to backup on a blockchain that exists in CK, you can. Not sure you need to as the db is already backed up on multiple servers and it's doubtful the NSA is interested in undermining a videogame.

I hope this ends the comparisons and any spam or unnecessarily derisive comments made about either game as they are different games, with different goals, and with different players in mind as to their design.

Yacht Technology Discovered

After finding the Swedish Nobility on favorable terms for a joint effort to develop a ship (the roll was a 6 as recorded by the all powerful d20),

Earl Tombot, Grand Ambassador of the Quartermillenial Great Council

Sir goin2mars, Earl Marquess of Vesrof, 21st/II Bt of CK, TB, QJB

HE TA Sir Mooo, the Blessed Prince of Stonehaven, 29th/I Bt of CK, Councillor, AOK-K, AOD-Maj, Treasurer of the QGC, Learned Naturalist, DOL-K, KI-K, MG-4, TB, KFB, CCB

and King Corp


donated 4000 SCI towards the effort and were rewarded with the technology of Yacht--while this technology isn't ideal for a battle ship or large shipping hauls, it will provide quick means for exploration, "seek and destroy" military missions and the finding of the rare and exotic (it's name does derive from the Dutch "jacht" to hunt), as well as a means for the rich and powerful to show off the bounty of years of effort and faith to the Kingdom.

We are still deciding on how best to implement the new technology and reward those who risked their precious SCI in the endeavor. So, that said, please feel free to add your voice to the discussion.

How does Risto not make this list: was buying when most everyone else was selling BTC at $10, owns the Bitcoin Castle, was telling everyone to buy Monero in 2014, and now is telling everyone to bet the farm on CryptoKingdom--which has risen 700% in the last two days. Like any investor, he's been wrong, but he tends to get the big ones right.
