This is an OOC post:
This is Bariloche, fellow Protector of the LoD. Two questions, 1- Will the auctions be IC only?, 2- Could you say what nations will be auctioned so everyone could take a look at them before it starts?
Thank you in advance.

I Recently Bought 45 Deactivated Nations...I intend on reactivating them in groups of 5 for the auction.
Does not matter if it's IC or OOC
As long as you bring your checkbooks
When they get reactivated i shall post their relevant data here...For easier Finanacial
OOC: Hm... buying nation IC is pretty much the same as slavery, selling soveriegn nations off to serve their new masters.
Meanwhile OOC selling them off is pretty much pointless, as you can't get IC cash from a OOC sale... and I doubt anyones going to pay any real money.
So I think I'm going to have to ignore all "bought" puppet nations...

So...I'm a greedy Bastard.....I'll take the money and give most to my alliance for an International/Humanitarian Aid Fund... Hell it could be expensive Toilet paper for my Royal Family...Who the hell cares...It's a just a damn game.
Auction will start as soon as Mods confirm the reactivation of the nations.

• The Borderlands of Orvontonn
• The Dictatorship of Havonna
• The Empire of The Father World

Will this nation selling continue or is this thread dead already?
If it is, Doujin will bid 15 trillion (depleting it's reserve effectively) for Scotland.

Hmm, I thought the consensus was no more 'nation' selling.
I believe that is the consensus, but I'm part Scottish.. chance to buy the nation Scotland ... wel gotta take a pass at it.

Resi the ex-nation-selling bastard wants to watch where this goes, especially once Menelmakar sees it.
It's a shame that Omz is no longer around to tear this down. :P

We offer 15 trillion for East Scotland. We were once part of a much economically strong nation and we have our own strong economy as well and can afford the prize.

This is an OOC post:
First: The aution for the first five nations mentioned already took place and only one of them was sold (I should know it d_ :D _b)
Second: The buys are not needed to be IC, and the use of the bought nations as part of the buyer forces is not going to happen (it's just for having another nation, it's fun people), so no IGNORE weapons need to be drawn in these grounds.
Third: Verboten Lufftewaffe has stopped the auctions until further notice, he's not even taking a look at this thread; which, by the way, is not the one where the auctions took place. Argheraal made the question if this thread was dead and he got no answer: what do you think? :lol:

Some 2-month year old nations have their own puppets.
