Recently we have aquaired all we can from the Ghool system, and it is of little use for us. It is still plentyful in minerals, but none that we need. The system consists of one blue star, which we named Ghool, it also consists of twenty two planets, fourteen of which can sustain life. There are four asteroid feilds. The planet are of the following. We have not named them, for we have not used them that terribly much.

If it's of little use to you... then it would naturally be of relatively little value to you. What's the point of bidding outrageous prices on something you don't even want? I suggest you pull whatever you have out of the system and just... leave it alone.

Perhaps we'll set something up there. Ghool does have a nice ring to it.

If I must... I'll bid 1 credit.

ooc: on this even less serious note... I have to wonder what a nation just over 30 days old is doing relinquishing the control of an entire solar system? I know you're trying to play the game and all... but c'mon... try to regulate the amount of fun you have.

Why am I bidding outragious amounts of money? Because, for one thing we are talking about millions upon millions of land!!! I mean, this is a solar system we are talking about, not just one planet but 22! Plus the moons, I said it wasn't any use to us at the moment, it could be in the future though.
So the price is now 1 secillion credits.

OOC: And I am more than just 33 days old. my other nation, under the same name, was deleted becuase I didn't use it for a while, so I have actually been playing since may 14 2003. And I am having fun just to let you know, I am friends with a lot of other nations, such as Nanakaland, SAVXM, LRR, and many more, so don't try to tell me what to do.

ooc: Just because you've been playing since may, that doesn't give your 33 day old nation the right to sell entire solar systems. While your ominous friends are reasonable, I think that you are not. And, if you think waving around names here on NS is a way to gain respect or to intimidate nations over 10x older than your current nations age... you aren't right. I didn't do this in an attempt to sound elitist or to jostle my weight around... I did it because not up until a couple months ago did I myself inhabit more than one solar system. I just find it absurd.

Then again... what I say has no bearing... it often falls on deaf ears.

[OOC: Lets see, Nanakaland has been inside my store, I have played three RPs with him, including one of my own, SAVXM has played in two RPs with me, LRR has sold me three Jungle Class Science Vessels for $300,000, not to mention came to me to see if he could join my RP, also Nodea Rudav, he has asked me if I would like to help him explore a new solar system, he also asked if he could join my RP. Along with plenty of other nations, so don't say I am throwing around names to gain respect. And you know what, in all my time of playing, you are th one and only to have complained about me having more than one soloar sytem, because I have a lot, and you are the only one who complains about it.]
