This nation may be small but if I still had my April nation you wouldn't be saying that.

I know what I'm talking about I used to be just like you.

Just make those numbers smaller and you'll be respected alot more than you would if you made them unrealisticly big.

Cricketmon has earned money from sales of goods and services to other nations. He also has some funding from myself. Stop being so picky.

He doesn't have 100 billion dollars....

I give up it's obvious you all don't know how to roleplay properly.

I have the support of my whole region ..

The United Empire of Colerica is willing to pay 80 billion dollars for the next ten years. Yes, that's 80 billion a year for ten years straight. A total of 800 billion USD through and through.* We want that nation.

OOC: * That's 800 billion over 10 years unless our math is bad...

I just looked at your region's message board...there hasn't been a single message about it.

In fact, there hasn't been a message in 7 hours.

I urge the seller of this nation and all nations involved to ignore Cricketmon.

I will bid 10 billion USD, and a pupit nation, for your nation. You could also sell my nation for additional profit. Contact me with your answer.

Long range ignore cannon fires.

Congrats Cricketmon...you have just made yourself look like a complete dumbass and got yourself ignored!

I've changed my mind. The Gosstoepian Empire withdraws it's bid.

well, seeing as this nation has quite the GDP, the price has been raised. anything below 500billion will be ignored( sorry everyone)

I've changed my mind. The Gosstoepian Empire withdraws it's bid.can i ask why?

How do you know how much GDP there is? And also, how do i know how much money i have?Also, how can i trade/go to war with this?
cheers guys :)

Our goverment cannot afford any more than 200 billion

*walks away tears in the pm's eyes* :cry:

I've changed my mind. The Gosstoepian Empire withdraws it's bid.can i ask why?
The Gosstoepian Empire already control 5 satellite nations, with a total population of over 6 Billion people. It'll be to differcult running all those nations.

I have taken funding from my brother nation, The Theocratic Royalty of The Land of Glory. I think you might find that nation has all required spec's.

I bid $600bn

Liberator, we do not wish to sound impatient, but do you consider our bid to little?

To remind you:

The United Empire of Colerica is willing to pay 80 billion dollars for the next ten years. Yes, that's 80 billion a year for ten years straight. A total of 800 billion USD through and through.* We want that nation.

Did anyone use a ns gdp calculator to check if those three nations put to gether could even get 500 trillion dollars? If not then technically speaking they would have jsut put there nation into permenet no money for several long long long long long (etc.) years before they could even do anything......


This has been a random rant paid for by the We Love Rant's group of comdidia.

Smart thinking :D Id just use my puppet and offer up 3 trillion for a nation.....sure hed be broke but he could afford that max lol.

All nations involved in this "auction" have just commited the ultimate godmod.

Selling a nation that you own OOC for an IC amount of money is UNREALISTIC. The US can't sell China. Why? Because the US doesn't OWN China. Unless the nation is a state or colony of the selling nation, it CAN NOT and WILL NOT happen. And also, if the US was to sell, say, Nebraska, they would have some serious shit to deal with in Nebraska. Everyone would be PISSED. And they'd probably move out of whatever's for sale.

Unless you own the nation IC as a state or colony, you're commiting the ultimate godmod and are hereby ignored.

if we pool the resources of every nation in our region and our allied region, we can bid 1 (is it quadrillion?) dollars.

but we won't because we've got enough puppets already and this nation is tiny.

i ought to sell one of my dozen-or-so nations. ( http://www.freewebs.com/arribastan/vitalstatsofmynations.htm )
(i also own 3 others not listed)

It does seem kind of ignorant to bid IC on a OOC owned nation. Now, if the nation in question agreed to become a "protectorate" for IC reasons; that might be different, but not by much.

btw this is a puppet I'm taking out for a spin.

it sounds fun.... but I think this is very cheap

$900 Quadrillion

$100 trillion

OOC: some things you recent posters should know.
1)the bidding is over
2)nobody on NS can afford 900 quadrillion dollars
3)the highest bid was 500 trillion dollars.

and besides, the bidding is over. no one won.

my bids still valid maybe small bit it looks like the only valid bid here

$100 trillion

THE GODMODDING HAS ENDED. Do not bid even more. You're starting to turn into your f*cked up brother.

This is REALLY funny. :lol: Let the guy sell his nation if he wants to, and let the other guy spend 100 trillion if he wants to. What do we care?

No, but really. 100 trillion is...not good. LB, you can sell your nation but dont ley it get to much out of hand*

*it already is

*it already is

No, LB cannot sell his nation.

HOW TO PROPERLY SELL A NATION:
1) Invade the country, or make it a state tor colony of your country.
2) Post a topic with a DETAILED POST of he nation for sale, such as Climate, terrain, population, economy, etc.
3) Accept valid bids. DO NOT ACCEPT ANYTHING OVER $10 TRILLION FROM A N00B! AND IF THEY DO BID $10 TRILLION, make DAMN SURE they can pay up.
4) Or, if you want to skip steps 1-3, have the buying nation invade the nation for sale. Lend the nation support and aid, and when the buyer successfully takes over the nation "for sale", they will give you $[Whatever amount] for your help in the conflict.

Yes, LB can sell H-I-S nation.

1)Invation is not needed, LB owns the nation being sold
2)I agree with that
3)LB is only accepting valid bids as far as I know. Hell, he hasnt evean sold the thing yet.
4)Makes sence, but is crude.
-and-
5)I am done here (so are you), LB is no longer selling his nation. So we have nothing to complain about. Good day.
