No one wants these nations?
Wilhelmsborough

Interesting idea. Where are these nations located in the world? Which are the closest countries to the Black Sea in Europe? And what part of Japan is Byzantine Japan take up?
Pythogria
04-05-2006, 04:49
OOC: You mean... if I win this auction... all those nations are part of Pythogria?

OOC: do you even own these countrys?
Wilhelmsborough
04-05-2006, 05:00
And will you be giving out the usernames and passwords to these countries?
Leocardia

I want Witnessia

$450 billion.
Cravan

OOC: do you even own these countrys?

I did notice that all of these countries did infact have similiar writing styles and very similiar intro posts. I'm sorry if these nations are owned by different people and my statement was taken offensively in any way, but that is an observation I made.

OOC: Is the idea here that we pay a sum of money to New Eonopolitan government and get the control of some completely different nation? Uh... How exactly does that work out IC:ly?

ooc: It doesn't this is a practice refferred to as "Puppet Whoring". When only one puppet is concerned it can be somewhat justified as a nation selling it's colony, but in these amounts, it's just a lame attempt to durm up IC funds for his latest superweapon.
New Eonopolis
04-05-2006, 21:58
Yes, I do own all of these nations. I have decided I don't want to have to manage them all, so I thought other nations would like to use them for their own purposes.

Wilhemsborough, Byzantine Japan is all of Japan, and parts of East Asia. I will give out the usernames and passwords of the nations to only those who win them with the highest bid.

Leocardia bids 450 billion on Witnessia and Kubra bids 10 billion on Miracle Springs, anyone want to bid higher?

The money does not go to the New Eonopolis government.

Pythogria, if you win, any of the nations you win are part of Pythogria.

Sqournshelous, not to be rude but I am not trying to build a superweapon or anything.

Also, I am offering up to other nations, the nations of Imperial Slavia, Free Rommelwood, and Imperial Salamandria. Anyone can bid on these as well.
Roubus

Free Anatolia

The Aeson
04-05-2006, 22:26
Free Antolia, Imperial Slavia, and Imperial Salamandria, 700 billion each. I'm at war with Roubus, so it's in my interests not to let him greatly expand...
New Eonopolis
04-05-2006, 22:26
Roubus has bidded 500 billion each for the nations of Imperial Slavia, Imperial Salamandria and Free Anatolia. Anyone want to try to outbid?

Roubus has been outbidded by Aeson's 700 billion. Will anyone try to outbid Aeson?
Roubus
04-05-2006, 22:29

Roubus bids 999 billion for Imperial Salamandria. Anyone want to try to outbid, say bidding a trillion? Also, to all nations: If you win, the bid you placed is what you pay, but we can discuss payment and that.

Irish Nations of Meame
04-05-2006, 22:49
Meame wants a larger nation for his empire. I shall bid R$(The Reama Credit) 38.47 billion (current government waste) for your such nation.

Also, one Irish Lion, firece and Army trained. Female.

But I'll make it worth your while. Go to Ralph Spoilsport, tell him Meame (aka Syndicate Control) wants North CahIane and Eranmane478 sent to your nation. He SHOULD send you the passwords. If he does not, sorry, I'm out.

This is Meame's final offer.

OOC: This is my first post in II. Still, you want them?

Assuming no one else has a bid on this nation, or at least a higher one, Errikland would like to put up five billion for Witnessia.
New Eonopolis
04-05-2006, 23:07
I was just going to post that. The bidding will end at 8:30 PM Mountain Time, I suppose. I may have to change it because I want to be online at the time I choose to end.

Errikland
04-05-2006, 23:30
Errikland, you will have to bid higher.

Thank you for telling me. I have considered it, and it is not worth anywhere near that much.

I will now bid 1 billion Errikan credits on Galata-Pera. They are not very big, at all, but my nation already has friendly relations with them so "taking them under my wing" seems realistic.

If someone else has already bidded higher on this, please tell me.

Don't you think this may be a bit large for a bribe of a single man, even a man who thinks he's a god? Of course, I don't know how much your currency is actually worth, but, according to the last time I checked, one Errikan credit is about 1.32somethingsomething American Dollars.

It is 6:30 in Mountain Time, two hours or what not to go for bidding. After bidding ends, I will check this thread for who has won. Also, for nations that have not been bidded on, we can continue to auction them, I suppose.

Explain this. I would like to know what you mean, a little extra for the Child King of Galata-Pera and his family.

Say I expected other bidders to stop at a certain amount, which we will call x. Now, then I would logically bid at x+1 so as not to waste anything. However, if I wanted the family as well, I could throw in a little extra for them, that amount being y. That would make my bid x+y+1 rather than x+1. Assuming y is a positive number, it means more profit to you.

How much would you want to pay for the Royals?

I am not entirely sure what sort of thread, but I was leaning towards something were he is the leader of one side in a civil war. Of course, not the aggressor.

As for payment, again I am not sure. What sounds reasonable for a royal family? Several million probably, but it is up to you.

Waitaminute, Armedes requests the bid be withdrawn. We weren't aware the nation was a few days old, instead believing it was well established. You see, due to our precarious situation in mediating a dispute between Federation members, we can not afford to police an unstable country too.

Thank you, and take your time. Also you only sent me two passwords, but I bid on and won four nations.

I have sent you the other passwords, Maraque. To ALL nations, change the E-Mails and all that, some of them may have my friend's E-Mail.
