I'm now the proud owner of the Horseshoe Casino in LV. Had to get two adjacent grids under two dif. acc., but you can now clearly see I own them.

They are currently for sale at the max price allowed, but will entertain a lesser value.

Some of the businesses located on the two grids:

Binion's Gambling Hall & Hotel
Mermaid's Casino
Golden Goose Gentlemen's Club
Granite Gaming Group
Girls of Glitter Gulch
G & G Fremont
Subway
Labayou Casino
Budget Las Vegas Downtown Rent-A-Car
Paradise Buffet & Cafe

Some bastard took the Taj Mahal from underneath me. This is fuckin' war!

On a serious note:

Has anybody considered using this site as a money laundering conduit? (not trying to be funny)

a new startup with innovative ideas, first geopiece is for free

www.geopieces.com

Bitcoins will be integrated soon

This is not meant to diss you, if you're the one behind this, for I love this site, but...

Quote
Registrar of Record: Domain.com
Record last updated on 07-Dec-2012.
Record expires on 30-Sep-2013.
Record created on 30-Sep-2009.

According to the wayback machine, an effort was made a year or so ago to get this off the ground, but the site is much sleeker now.

I like everything about it but the name, for it's not as marketable as it could be, but everything about the site is, including the incorp. of Bitcoin aspect. Without putting a lot of thought into it, GeoGrid would be a better choice, albeit the .com is taken.

After putting a little thought into it, I considered the word fabric and arrived at GeoBric (available).

GeoPieces breaks one of the cardinal sins: too many syllables.

Another option could have been GeoVore of which võre is Estonian for grid.

Or GeoNexx.com is available (as in Nexus)

GeoGridz.com

Apologies for going on-and-on on the naming aspect, but it's an important ingredient in getting a promising site its proper footing.

When the mobile app is launched, a user will see the geopiece for their current location and any text or links the owner includes?
I'd also like to see G$ freely tradable between users. If I can't trade them, there's nothing to do with them besides buy more geopieces.

the mobile app will be exactly as you mentioned, it is also planned that you can trade your G$ in an exchange, or other things that will
be implemented in the future

Is the incentive to use the app just the curiosity of what will be there? If that's true, someone could just go to the website and check any area they want rather than use the app. Maybe the owner of a geopiece should be able to include something only visible if they're physically located in the space.

After bumping, I revisited my favorite site and what did I find? Four of my downtown Las Vegas grids have been removed.

Now, I've read the T&C and have done nothing wrong to warrant such deletions. Since I had time, read expense, in this endeavor, I desire an explanation.

It'll be a shame if one of their true supporters goes full retard.

This action does not bode well and I believe that tonberry needs to get here ASAP and start addressing this grave concern.
