War Games Announced

All Royal Forces are recalled to within the borders of CryptoTown, Mobile forces (100% mobility units) will maintain separate roaming basepoints throughout the Town's walls. Royal Guard and 1st regiment are to be stationed near Palace of Versailles--King will reside there with all Royal effects. Training detachment #3 will scout the parameters of the Town's walls. Training Detachment #1 and #2 are to be stationed in the Citadel to bulwark the cannon units.

By order of HM the King

Research Proposal: Chain-Shot

We are told that one can chain two cannonballs together and have artillery that mows though infantry forces--we wish to pursue this technology and have it ready within the next 1-2 years. Please inform the Military on how best to proceed with development.

Research Proposal: Shipwright

We wish to build a Navy for trade, exploration and defense, please inform us on how to get this started--it seems insane for a nation in the modern times to have neither sea trade or exploration.

Also, what would be a quick estimate as to the costs (sci, sto1, bld, etc.) to build roads connecting current Town and Counties? Also, a real estimate for Plath to Town would likely be carried through without delay.


ATTN NOBLES:

Our roads are in a terrible state and must be upgraded, so we propose that SCI, BLD and STO1 be used to see to the matter. This is a matter for the whole Town and all Counties, so the military and/or King will not foot the bill alone, so Nobles should come to agreement on the matter as soon as estimated costs are issued and construction begin.

*Also, due the fines associated with M2, any fines levied against HMC or his surrogates (Madam_Stoka, Plath, Crichton, King, UFO or OldDuchy) will be doubled and fined payable to King Corp--this will be accounted cumulatively, so 1mil in m2 is more of a fine than the 5k that put the character over.

Please quote him if he does--I'd unignore him, but why?

The King woke. His biggest concern was oddly not the rumors of a dark force or the threats from the spiritual realm. Being rational, he knew there were no ways to strategize around the random acts of gods or devils. His worry was not the economy that had yet to return to its former bustling as those controls were not in his hands, and his biggest concern was not that no one had grabbed the reigns of the most opportune way to gain foreign investment as no one seemed interested in the work involved and it's a waste of time to go against lack of motivation--even when it is in everyone's best interest--no, his BIGGEST concern was the coronation. And now that Dark Forces was on the warpath it seemed inevitable that they might try to interrupt the planned procedure (and the King, not fond of planned parties or Royal hubbub) decided to kill two birds with one stone.

"Is anyone awake?" he said walking the empty Palace.

Madam_Stoka, "I  am your Majesty."

"Just Crichton," he retorted, rolling his eyes, "It's too late at night to going on about all that--I imagine Hamlet would be telling us about how a King could pass through the guts of a beggar--and he was wiser than any of us."

Madam_Stoka chuckled, "He was a character in a play, so why not say Shakespeare?"

"Because a playwright can travel through the guts of Prince. Now we're going to pass some DOM and MUM through are guts and make official that which can pass as the hierarchal manifestation of nature's programing."

Madam_Stoka, "Sometimes I have no idea what you are saying."

"We're going to drink DOM and snort MUM and call it a coronation, so I'm officially King and dark forces can't crash the party in 1666."

Madam_Stoke, "DOM and MUM, I get!"

"Good, My Lady--be sure to send out a bottle of w1615p to everyone not in attendance."

Coronation 1662:

Note: those who did not receive a bottle of w1615p, please send me a PM here and it will be sent to the proper address.

What happens when unstoppable FUD meets immovable idealist.

A decentralized exchange would likely put it under cryptocurrency regulation rather than videogaming regulation--not a plus imo. Also, AFAIK it wouldn't be able to be a browser based game and the resource requirements would be magnitudes more for a game as vast and complex as CK when compared to card/meme games.

You can port casino games, card games, and other subgames of your making to CK and have it interact via API--that currently is the means for decentralized gameplay, but anything beyond that would need to be technically possible (without losing live interactions or GM events or otherwise muddling the mechanics), have no effects on the game's status as a game, and not add downloading to player's tasks. There are counties that can grow within the game until they are ready to become their own game, but other than the MK project, which had very limited interaction with the CK gameworld (exchange of tokenization of MK asset), this has not yet been tested.
As far losing the game, much of the pertinent info is stored on multiple computers via google sheets (pertinent as in high ticket items such as armies and buildings and lands), and the game's db is back-upped on a regular basis. This is by no means as thorough a safety net as what one would hope for in a card game, but is more thorough than most similarly complex games in the MMORPG space.

If anyone can offer a decentralized MMORPG that is played in real-time, keeps its cost inline with profitability and doesn't lose continuity based on the absence of a overall gameworld, I'd be happy to play. Though I'd still expect it would lose videogaming regulation status if it acted similarly to a decentralized cryptocurrency exchange.

From Tux's FAQ:

"Question: How do new coins get listed on the exchange? Can I request a coin get added?"

"A We do NOT accept listing requests. Coins are discovered organically by our staff. Please do not ask to have a coin listed."

The coronation is dependent on three events:


1 and 2 are well on there way--though Syksy has taken a break to attend to other matters and Saddam is MIA ATM. The third is finished, but getting an exchange listing for the token seems an impossible task reserved for only the best assets.

We could put a four year limit on coronation, but I would want it held on a ship if the Jovial Jester's poker wing is still under construction.

I'm pretty sure sputz was already paid to be an honorary dashtard. His attacking Monero while overlooking dash--and now open support--happened shortly after he put up a poll whoring his FUD advertising services.

Good question.

Monero took a new technology (cryptonote), outlined why it can't achieve its stated purpose as implemented (bytecoin), mapped out a plan to fix those flaws and achieve its stated purpose (https://lab.getmonero.org/) and wrote 740,000 lines of code to get the job done, so not exactly FUDding and self-glossing yourself non-stop or arguing with most everyone that your pet economic theory is correct and the whole cryptoworld has got it backwards--despite having no discernable knowledge about cryptosystems or economics--but it's something.

Sorry fulfilling the goal of a digital cash system hasn't impressed such bellwethers of accomplishment and luminaries of the crypto-universe, but since everyone else is offering soda machines and Hype, technology and science will have to do to differentiate monero from the rest of the coinz. Maybe XMR can add memes or slavenodes or inverse-time transactional schemes to (such) wow and amaze the two brain cells you have when you two dashtards rub your collective asses together.

Morons.

Both will and should happen.

I'm sure this applies to penguins too.

This topic has been moved to [other - off-topic].

Don't be surprised if it comes out one day that sputz was paid by dash--his praise of that scam versus the obsessive (and at times convulsive) derision of one the few reputable projects in the space is the only explanation that makes sense--other than really being that oblivious.

IE. When someone acts waaayyyy out of character towards one product/project/group, but ramps up his usual behavior for their competition, apply Ockham's Razor to their motive and you get money (or maybe sputz and Evan are a thing--not that there's anything wrong with that).

But if you need to look further, watch how the dash faithful have embraced their new friend--even dashtards aren't blind to it, and they're oblivious to the most obvious things in cryptoland: fair launches, cryptocurrencies needing cryptography, adding algorithms has the potential for crosschain reactions no one can predict, ect, ect....

Being FUD King is a lot like having the biggest dick at a leper colony--you're still not getting laid.

I want to buy this if it isn't already--I'm not at home atm, so I'll make the transaction when I get back if it's not taken.

You understand that the FBI's scrutiny isn't Moneo per se, but all darkmarket activity, BTC, LTC, XMR and whatever coins gain traction in the future? So singling Monero out and implying all Monero transactions are being scrutinized is jumping to a conclusion--and one you should also jump to with clear chains such as LTC and BTC, which are listed in the article, along with XMR.

I was replying to a specific comment made by neither you or sputz, so building off of that is as much off topic as anything, so there's that too.

Here's that actual comments by the FBI that the OP is trying to spin into doom and gloom--though I view it as validating Monero's cashlike qualities--fungibility included.

HUH? You need cc because you can't convert cash digitally.

You are making the classic mistake of viewing fungibility as binary--some things can be more fungible than others in the economic sense and asking the tptb to create them or for digital cash to be moral is an epic fail on your part as it misses that a cc as fungible as cash is supposed to be  (non-digital of course--absurd i have to make that point, but whatever) it has to be able to be exchanged on any exchange without the exchange blocking it (as was the case with BTCe and the Evolution scammers)--as long as 1 xmr = 1 xmr anywhere, it is as fungible as cash is on the street (barring the use of the view key to link yourself to a crime as would a cash wielding criminal with blood stains on his money--though having to explain that level of stupidity as an edge case is a homage to your level of understanding of what a digital cash should, can, and must do). Good luck, dude--my guess is your portfolio and politics are a mirror of your ignorance of all things crypto.

Cash does all those things and drug dealers, hookers and arms dealers all ask for cash and promote it as their preferred method of payment--you can do all kinds of analogy warping to discredit Monero, but there is no central authority making these claims or who worked to get Monero added to Alphabay. No more so than any government worked to get their fiat to be the preferred method of payment for international criminal activities. Cash is used for bad things--end of story. And to think a digital cash won't be used for the same activities is naïve, dumb, or floundering in personal interest.

When you yell at the grandma in front of you at the grocery store for using cash, "You're supporting drugs, murder, pedophiles, hookers, terrorist and money laundering, you lousy bitch," then your histrionics over Monero will seem a little less insincere and more like good old fashion stupidity.

Yearly dividends and production are turned off.
