I can buy a single Maple Leaf from a reputable website for $26. Even with express shipping, BTC0.5 is costly.
The auction is for both coins. Starting bid is 0.5 for the pair together. So it would actually be 0.25 each. Oh! This is actually a great deal.

Did AM move some hashing power from solo to a pool, or where did this all go? http://www.asicminercharts.com/Or are they moving it all out of the way to get bigger and badder machines in?! The blades are temporarily out of stock.
Please wait till late June to early July for newer blades with improved design and better price.
The first round of blades sold to the public were gen 1. Current dip in hash rate is due to gen 2 being pulled offline and replaced by gen 3. Once the farm fully switches from gen 2 to gen 3 (late June, early July... i.e. in 2-4 weeks), they will start auctioning gen 2 blades to the public. Obviously

I just need to cover some more expenses, there are some additions we would like to make to the house. If you have bought a new house before you know you have a very short window during construction to make changes / additions to the house. That is how i will use the money.
As far as repayment, I get paid on the 28th so will be paying back from my paycheck as soon as i can concert to BTC or other option like Chase quick pay etc... if cash is better for the lender. I make around 3200 every 2 weeks so the repayment really isn't a problem.
Have you moved in yet?

I'd be willing to license some of my ideas, please see my idea portfolio in the thread greyhawk linked to.
Current going rate is BTC0.1 per idea, for a limited time only

I believe the point being made is, one does not count as an artist in the context of the competition until one submits a piece of artwork; otherwise they're just an onlooker, so to speak.
If we're all going to stop deliberately misunderstanding each other, we might as well just request the thread be locked. But we're having so much fun I'm fairly entertained. You'd want to start out with only enough in-game infrastructure to get money into the game and to get people creating. Everything else can be built by players. I feel like there should be a way to use a blockchain to store game state, which would probably win over all the altcoin fans, but I'm not quite sure it'd make sense.

Dude the fuck's wrong with the nubbin. Fiddy seconds, seriously?
When we're done discussing the time, can we move onto more pressing topics, like the weather? until and unless you've submitted art you are not an artist.
That's... not correct. you are not an artist until and unless you deliver.
That's correct in a general sense. You've removed the distinction that one has to deliver on this project (sorry, job!) in order to be an artist. A professional one, at least. I'd go so far as to say that if you haven't sold anything you've created to a stranger, you're not an artist of any sort of merit. It's worth mentioning at this point that greyhawk now passes this criteria.

We're still discussing making art.
Well, after a fashion. Tho' honestly I'd personally prefer you continue with the posturing
It's a busy day, but I'll try to keep up. Also, to make it perfectly clear: once we're done with the forum dickery and are actually submitting stuff which actually meets the spec we're expected to actually meet the spec. That includes posting a link THERE and including a Bitcoin address. Specifically and underliningly if you post your art here and somebody else takes it and posts it there MP will likely just shrug and pay them rather than you. Well, I'm nobody's fool. Done and done!

Your printer has a job queue, for instance
And, like my printer, people capable of performing this task are sitting around on idle, waiting to be told what to do? I see! It's just shit you've overheard, probably from S.MG people themselves
This is as close as I'll get to an acknowledgement, so you're welcome. Now run with it! instead of learning it you're talking about how it could be learned, preferably by someone else. Not useful. Go learn it, come back next year or w/e.
The mistaken assumption is that I'm interested in this project beyond feeding you the crumbs that will eventually become your game. The other mistaken assumption is that you learn how to make this game before you make it, and then 'come back' and make it, which is so convoluted that I fear you may have missed the point.

Spermy wheat in the pic was obviously a reference to resource trade/production, in the spirit of Settlers of Catan, whereby you have people growing trees, mining ore, making bricks, etc etc. These resources can be exchanged with other players, who could then use them to build a shop, or build a bridge to cross a wide river, etc. The player who made the shop can put wares in it, or sell it on the open market (better pay the king's real estate listing fees). The player who built the bridge now has a better trade route, or can set up a toll booth, etc.
The key here is the link between virtual and physical goods, without which the whole thing is another masturbatory reality-escape game. With that link in place, however, you don't need to go dicking around with 3d avatars and polygons and fancy graphics; people would explore a world with these rules if it was drawn by a three-year-old. Look at the free ride Minecraft got on graphics, just because you could build shit.
Obv this has already all been thought of, so it's time for breakfast!
