Auction for a nation with over 1 BILLION people!!

Yes, I have totally lost my mind, and I'm auctioning off one of my extra nations. Here's some info (as of 10-22-03):
BRADISLOV
Compulsory Consumerist State
Civil Rights: Below Average
Economy: Powerhouse
Political Freedoms: Outlawed
The Rogue Nation of Bradislov is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.175 billion are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
The small, corrupt government devotes most of its attentions to Defence, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and the Environment receiving almost no funds by comparison. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Uranium Mining industry, followed by Book Publishing and Arms Manufacturing.
Billions of algerbers are being poured into a space program, employers may fire workers without giving any reason, eight year-olds can be seen lighting up in public areas, and euthanasia is legal. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bradislov's national animal is the spanish inquisition, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the algerber.
Yes, it currently has 1.175 billion people in it. Bidding starts today, and ends this Saturday, 8:30 pm CT.
Opening bid is $100 billion.
Let the bidding begin...

$10 trillion.

*Decides to turn into newbie for duration of auction*
£100 thousand million!
Resi I am seriously considering switching sides.... :D
As we all know, Resi is an unmitigated ass who will beat anything I bid and apparently doesn't realize that the auction goes on for about 3 days. Nonetheless, 12.5 trillion.

Once again we see the rampant idiocy that is Nation Selling. For shame. And Resi, do be real. $10 trill after all that mess you were just in? I don't bloody think so. Get a grip.
If you tire of a nation, for the love - give it a home with someone who'll give a damn, not some broker who'll just sell it for more and wank on the proceeds. Or have the decency and grace to just let it fade.

Please, you don't have 100 trillion pounds. The only reason I can bid insanely large sums of money is that I have amassed almost $1 quadrillion (a thousand million millions) in the days of "Jai's New and Used Nation Sales". That business went bust, but the government kept the surplus, making us one of the richest nations around.
And Guanyu, why do you even try? You know I can beat the hell out of you with my massive ammounts of cash. :wink:

Get a grip.Ah but I am being realistic, Nathi. If you're counting money from nation sales (and as this is a nation sale, you can't help but count it), I have more than enough cash to put up a mere $10 trillion, even after the conflict. Oh, and that whole deal ended in mass ignorance, after WV got impatient and ignored me for taking too long with OOC things.

I'm out of the business of nation selling. However, when I see an RPer I appreciate on the forums, I usually end up giving them an excess nation. That'll probably be where this'll go.
$20 trillion.
Resi, A hundred thousand million is 100 billion, not 100 trillion....
I agree with Nathicana, actually. I don't plan to resell it, I plan to keep it and RP with it. I just figure the only way I will be able to do that is if I bid insanely large amounts of money for it. It's sad, but that's the way things are.

It's sad, but that's the way things are.Yup, it's true. There was a time when I profited off of nation sales, but it's long passed, due to shifts in public opinion and a lack of supply/demand. I would get insane ammounts of money from nations, and I kept them to buy other nations. Now it just isn't fashionable to sell nations, a point that will be accented if Lady Siri sees this thread.

How nice. I don't recognize retcons any more than I recognize profits from selling nations - it just isn't realistic. I'm still not entirely certain where that went, but it was looking pretty nasty all around. The fact that they ignored you at the end doesn't change the fact that in my timeline, you seemed to have gotten your ass handed to you.
All the same, this is mainly directed to the misguided soul who's offering the nation up for sale in the first place. It's a disgrace. Don't do it.

You don't have to pay robots, y'know. True, you have to service them, but that doesn't cost nearly as much as human labor. As for you ignoring money made by nation selling, this is a nation sale. If I can use the money I've made in the past from selling nations anywhere, it's here. Besides, the money payed for this nation will be ignored by you whether it comes from nation sales or not, so what do you care?
Neo Space, that doesn't reflect sales he might have made in equipment or nations, etc.
Resi, read that again. It says "100 thousand million." as I said in the first place, 100 thousand million=100 billion.

Granted my country only generates $12 trillion internally, but international sales and budget surpluses also factor into all this. If you'd actually read what I went to the trouble of writing, you'll see that you're wrong.

Give it. Now there's the magic words. Give it away all you like - it's the principle of selling a nation like so much meat at market that stinks.
Guanyu has already expressed a desire to rp it well. I'm certain there's others. I've seen a couple of folks actually have candidates write in with why they're deserving of the nation, and what they hope to do with it. Far more admirable than 'gimme all yer pseudo cash'.

Well thanks Resi, I appreciate that. Maybe you do have a heart. Since the latest bid was 19 tril from Wolf Kingdom now that Resi Withdraws, I bid 20 trillion.
And I think it is a good idea for this to be based more on deserving the nation, as Nathicana said, than having the most faux-cash to spend on it.

Yeah, good for it. But you do realize that the GDP calculator computes your GDP into American money, not your currency. That means you'd have to divide your GDP by ten to get your currency.

No Wolf Kingdom. GDP is in USD. 100 USD=1 DDB therefore divide your GDP in dollars by 100 to get DDB.

...This is starting to become stupid...
...As with all nation sellings.
I think the true players here already see the flaws and bad RPing characteristics of nation-selling.
I somehow havet he feeling that if this auction "succeeds", it will have August nations bidding 20 trillions and June nations bidding $200 trillion.

Resi Corporation.as your ally I must request that you cease bidding in this auction and withdraw your bids. This auction is nothing but slave trading on a national scale and I do not wish to see you returning to the slave trade of nations.
ooc:- Basically nation selling only works if people RP the take over bid without using large sums of money. For example your government could be trying to remove a corrupt dictator, and you offer him $100 million & a safe location if he leaves. Then once he has left staging a "revolt" that installs your "puppet leader" into power. Done properly this would make a good RP plus gives your nation a valid reason to use it as an ally in other RP's, But only if the nation giving up the nation doesn't aquire the money.
Wolf Kingdom, you REALLY don't even want to go there with Resi back on.

This auction is nothing but slave trading on a national scale and I do not wish to see you returning to the slave trade of nations.((OOC: But you see, we're doing all of this OOC. We have come to the conclusion that nation selling is an OOC business, and that we will aquire this nation for another one of my nations. However, if this person wants IC money for his nation, he will get it, and then the money will be ignored by everyone but himself. Essentially I'm giving him IC cash that exists only to him in exchange for OOC use of a nation. No slavery is involved at all here.))

*Looks at shopping list*

He has to find me first.I already have.
WK, it should be noted that if you take control of this nation, we will be collecting all Resi Corp goods shipped to your nation as a nullification of our trade agreements. Among the goods that are subject to this are FARQs, robots, dog food, vehicles of any kind, and Raven Units. Bare in mind that this is not the full extent of what we will do if you take this auction away from us.

Resi,
If I get the nation, I'm going to use my colony ships to being the people to Wolf Earth. You can take the land after I get all of the people off of it. Plus I did take the auction away you. Look at my bid.

You at my bid.((That's no good. See, we want the land and the people for OOC purposes, I.E. ones that don't relate to the nation of the Resi Corporation. Just let us have the nation, it'll be much simpler that way.))
We congratulate Resi Corporation for another successful bidding war. While the Holy Empire of Aooogah would have enjoyed having a 1 billion population nation in its empire, our faith dictates against colonialism in our Holy Scripture by saying, "It [colonialism] always gives one bad gas." (Bob 12:2) We send to Resi Corp 1000 crates of antacid and hope that their gas will get better soon.

I allocate $4 trillion of that every 12 RL days which equals 1 NS year (Since I play by 1day RL=1month NS time) and I do this for a total of 144 rl days equaling 10 NS years for a total of $40 trillion over a 10 year period.

My Bid
Now unless I'm doing my math wrong (Har har Resi), the money alone in that bid comes to 21.6 trillion. Considering most of your equipment isn't that advanced and is dirt cheap (MOST not all) I still think you don't have that kind of spare cash to fling around. It isn't like you can spend every cent you own on this and pretend that nothing happened to you econ.
I'm not saying you can't afford it, since you can over that long of a period. But I don't want to see you completely ignore any effect on your economy if you do get the nation.

In contrast --- you will also get to 1 billion within a few months.
If this continues, you shouldn't chase them off. They have a right to bid here --- even though they have over 1 billion, they possibly doesn't have the money, and the whole nation selling concept is wrong (which is, IMO.)
If you really want this nation because of its population, I begin to wonder. You will get to 1 billion soon, so why bother this bickering?

People are an invaluable resource and the conversion factor (with 75.6% efficiency!) of people to pencils yield approximately 2,000 graphite leads (We are sorry, due to a deforestation issue, and that someone else is paying more, you will have to provide your own wood.

I'll up my bid from the cheerio and banana I picked from my teeth yesterday, to that plus this little ball of belly button lint I found this morning.
Whispering Voices will not bid for Bradislov, however we will generously offer to obliterate your entire government for engaging in mass slavery. The same with the purchaser.

Everyone should keep in mind that Resi has been ignored by a large number of nations, and any money made by selling nations to him will likely be ignored by the better roleplayers who play here.
So, if you want to sell a nation to him, that's your choice, just understand that you'll be essentially giving away a nation for free, because you won't get to use the money, if you end up in a fight with several different nations.
You can hardly ignore money made from nation sales in a thread on a nation sale...or are we operating outside the logic continuum for the duration of this thread? (For some of us this is simply our natural state.)

Well, I'm saying outside the thread. Just because there's a thread saying someone got 14trillion from Resi, doesn't mean others will acknowledge anything bought with that 14 trillion in other threads. For example, in a war thread.

Ah, gone for two days and I miss two hundred some-odd posts...
Well, I've been getting everything from bribes not to sell the nation, prrivate bids, and death threats in my telegram box, so I guess you could say this is a fairly successful auction, eh? Anyways, looks like there's only about 20 minutes until the auction ends, so make any last minute bids now...
And by the way, let's keep it strictly bids for the remainder of the auction-try to avoid posting all of these, "No you don't have that much money I'm not listening la la la la la!" posts.
And WK, in response to your question from a while back on whether your bids are accepted, as long as you include value listings, they will be accepted.

Thank you.
And I come to the site 4 minutes late.
High up in space, twinkling like little stars, satellites monitored the situation and intercepted transmissions, sent to Jameson platforms for decoding. Signals were sent, transmitted through the atmosphere down to listening posts. At one such, Meneus Down, a listening post recorded the events of Bradislov being sold - in its entirety.
Enough was enough. This slavery had gone too far.

You have ignored our warnings. La Famiglia's governmental ministers have 24 hours to resign their posts and hand themselves over for trial at a Whispering Voices court, or they will be extracted by force.
<Transmission to Sneaky Bastards>
The government of Sneaky Bastards is hereby placed under embargo and blockade, duration indefinite, in protest at the purchase of the peoples of an entire nation.
At the vast military shipyards along the coastline of Whispering Voices, forces began once again to mobilise. Transport ships with gaping mouths swallowed armoured companies, and destroyers and aircraft carriers began to recall their personnel from shore leave.

OOC:
Exceedingly unlikely. Selling nations does not make you capable at war.

So you sent him that money OOC for the nation?
Actually, it's "piss poor roleplaying" to do an OOC thing and get IC benefits for it.
