Yes, that's right. Einhauser is coming out with another ship. This one, however, is much, much different. This one is huge, coming in at 31,397 feet (9,570 meters). The price is also astronomical, so only large nations with a budget of around $2 trillion need copy down this code.

Here is the code: (Ohhhh... if you are reading this, you are too late to get the code. Try again on my next ship. Maybe you will be more timely, slacker)

If you send this code to me via telegram as you are buying one of these vessels, called the Leviathan class, you will receive two brand new courier shuttles, courtesy of Einhauser. Be sure to have the codes ready tommorrow, because that is when it comes out.

This code will only be offered until the end of the day, so grab it now.

OOC: This is a starship, right?


Well. I'm PMT so i can't buy this thing. But kudo's to anyone who could afford it.

OOC: Long scale or short scale trillion?

OOC: Long scale? Short scale? I thought a trillion was a trillion.

OOC: The short scale trillion is 10^12, whereas the long scale is 10^18.

No. In the US, a billion is 1000 million and a trillion is 1000 billion. In Europe, a billion is 1,000,000 million and a trillion is 1,000,000 billion. So the US equivalent of a European trillion is a quintillion (10^18 as opposed to 10^12).

Ok, whatever, its US trillion.

Yes, that's right. Einhauser is coming out with another ship. This one, however, is much, much different. This one is huge, coming in at 31,397 feet (also known as just over two miles or 9,570 meters). The price is also astronomical, so only large nations with a budget of around $2 trillion need copy down this code.

Umm. you'll want to check your figures.

31,000 feet is about 5-6 miles, not about 2.

I was under the impression that 1 mile = 15,000 feet. Oh well, it doesnt really matter. I measured it in meters (because most NS users use them. I still cant understand the conversion rates... please do not explain them here) and then changed it to feet. The point of this thread, however, is not to critizise the stupid mistakes I made in the opening post, but to hype my new vessel, which I can promise will be near flawless.

[OOC: One mile is equal to five thousand eight hundred and twenty feet.]
