Selling pure uranium-50 dollars per pound

Is that a typo because Uranium is worth about $50 a pound...

Selling pure uranium-500 dollars per pound

Which isotope? Please tell me you are selling 100 pound shipments of U-235 packed closely together. Please tell me you will do that for me, if I pay you 50,000 dollars.

it was a typo sorry

:)

sure I sell 100 pound shipments of U-235 packed closely together

comes to 5,000 dollars

sure I sell 100 pound shipments of U-235 packed closely together

comes to 50,000 dollars

Moments after Leafanistan wired the money workers at the warehouse packed the U-235 together and Geiger counters suddenly spiked and dosimeters peaked. The workers would have been badly burned but the 100 pounds was easily enough to reach critical mass and the area would have been completely obliterated by a nuclear explosion.

The executives at Sierra Visions Inc. toasted themselves while watching the explosion from a satellite.

"Best 50,000 we've ever spent ladies and gentlemen."

OOC: Yes, you just nuked yourself.

were not rpging. I am selling stuff so dont spam on my thread

OOC: selling stuff counts as RPing....

I guess but I really dont want to play around or I would make a thread for it.

Secret to Kudo Slavia

how much do you have in stock? I wish to buy all of it.

end secret to Kudo Slavia

The People's Republic of Dongara is willing to pay $1,000,000 for 200 pounds of U-235 packed closely together.

500,000 pounds in stock now

The People's Republic of Dongara would like to revise that claim.

We wish to purchase all 500,000 pounds packed into one container for 100 million dollars.

I am not letting you buy because youll do something stupid

I am not letting you buy because youll do something stupid

I'm sorry you feel that way. We raise our bid to 1 billion dollars. That is 2,000 dollars PER barrel, which is 40 times your asking price. That's a lot of money...

ok deal but first wire the money

the package is on a smal boat heading to your nation

I am not letting you buy because youll do something stupid

OOC: Listen. You JUST stated that you're doing things that would cause a nuclear explosion. Either accept the losses, or y'know, bugger off. It's the nature of the game. Whenever you make posts in II without an OOC tag, it's considered IC. Either read the stickies and observe the forum rules or risk alienation from all decent roleplayers in this game.

I demand that a video feed of all the uranium being loaded into one single container so as to ensure there is no fraud. Than I will wire the money.

Im letting him have it

OOC: Sigh. Dude. I'm not going to spoil it.. *looks at Dongara* I'll let you break it to him.. :)

The empire of Imperial Nod is interested in a trade from your nation regrading the Uranium. Care to make an offer

what are you talking about????

imperial nod- Since these people are being idiots Ill sell it to you

You do know that by concentating the uranium and having it blow up, you are hurting your neighborss with the fall out.

The explosion was massive. The port town it was being unloaded in was totally devasted. U-235 reaches critical mass at 50 pounds, so 500,000 was devastating. The massive explosion killed everything in the city, and turned it to ash. People on the other side of the world were struck by a blinding light for a second. There was even a fire started in Dongara even though it was put out. Could Kudo Slavia sustain such a blast? Luckily for Dongara, the wind had it so that almost all of the radiation went to the nearby country of Naxos, thanks to calculations, giant fans, and etc.

Premier: That was the most evil $1 billion dollars I've ever used.

Politburo Member 1: Well, you could write it down as money for nuclear testing.

Premier: Good point. Alright, lets get to it. Lets wire the $1 billion to Kudo Slavia...if there's anything left of it.

That's what I relized and I am NOT SELLING it to him

That doesnt happen, read the sticky about "godmodding" and "bad form" RP also

HAHA the box was empty

OOC: It's too late. You already sold it. :p

OCC: You killed Kenny! You bastards!

Technically, he didn't say how much damage the nuclear explosion did .:p

but thanks for the billon dollars. Muhahaha

OOC: Actually, it DOES happen. That's like saying you godmode when you RP that a stick of dynamite explodes when someone lights it.

As to Kudo Slavia: You ALREADY said you did it, man. You packed the uranium close together in HUGE ammounts. You nuked yourself, dude.

but thanks for the billon dollars. Muhahaha
what are you going to do with a billion dollars? your land is currently a giant hunk of charcoal and glass.

whatever its just role-playing and I got a billion dollars. Later

why don't you get off his balls

OCC: is it just me or are the noobs getting stupider than before?

whatever its just role-playing and I got a billion dollars. Later

IC reply:

If you refuse to tender the services which another nation paid for, in this case uranium, that makes your nation liable for charges of theft in a massive scale.

Guys, the urainium isn't going to wait to explode until he's packed it all together... its gonna go as soon as it passes critical mass. On top of that, its not going to be a nuclear explosion because the density will be too low; the reaction will only sustain itself for a very short time...

OOC: Whichi s the most important condition I mentioned, "packed together closely". If anything Dogara's 500,000 pounds within close proximity provide enough free neutrons.

If anything, we've irradiated and ensured the deaths of dozens of workers and have created a pretty blue glow in the area and contanminated the area for years to come creating an environmental catastrophe.

And if what Kudo Slavia said is true, the fact that there was no explosion will ensure the money is not wired.

And this ignores the previous explosion, and the fact that the previous detonation ensures easily more than a billion dollars in cleanup, the loss of material and the displacement of people.

Methinks you missed the point. Assuming he's got it in smaller amounts (each block is below critical) and he starts stacking them, you get a reaction as soon as enough of them are together to pass critical. You won't be able to get anywhere near 500,000 pounds together without frying yourself from small reactions.

I wish to buy all mining rights to your uranium.

The offer is 100 billion and is to last 50 years.

OOC: Hey, he stacked 500,000 pounds together somehow without frying himself, maybe he was smart enough to have suits or something, lets just accept that he is now a very pretty green coloured radioactive parking lot.

Yep.

Having 500,000 pounds of U-235 is already an environmental catasrophe :)

My statement applies to the previous "explosion" as well... which wouldn't happen for the same reasons.

That is god modding FYI. Why don't you all leave the new players alone, maybe they will stick around if you dont constantly bust his balls for no reason.

The orignal poster would be well within his rights to ignore these people who have caused him to "nuke" himself which he didnt becasue his sicentist would have told him not to and in fact ignore the whole thing.

OOC: If anything, we've taught him a valuable lesson in nuclear physics.

Lets get back to the sales from Kudo Slavia (- two major locations) and (+ two very large glass fields).

1010102-I accpet your offer for the mining rights

I control mining rights to all of your uranium and i mean all.

yeah for 50 years as long as you agree not to use it against me

OOC: Hey, he stacked 500,000 pounds together somehow without frying himself, maybe he was smart enough to have suits or something, lets just accept that he is now a very pretty green coloured radioactive parking lot.
Suits would change this how?

OOC: If anything, we've taught him a valuable lesson in nuclear physics.
:headbang: At least get your physics right before trying to teach someone...

I am sending teams of miners and equipment to the uranium fields now. Your miners are to leave by the end of the NS week.

ok was the money wired??

yes it has been wired.

I wish to send a nattalion of infanty to protect the mines and to oversee. Is this acceptable with you?

OOC: You're really being an ass to this guy.

OOC: You're really being an ass to this guy.


OCC: i purchased the mining rights.

k thnks

Liberated New Ireland- Thnks for sticking up for me but I really dont care what he says I made 100 billion dollars

OOC: Yay, an imaginary $100 billion dollars! And probably an imaginary $2 trillion worth of cities blown up!

you know this is role-playing everything is imaginary ... :rolleyes:

The Republic of Aralonia would like to procure a kiloton of uranium for enrichment purposes, specifically for use as fuel for city-based and long-range deep-space vessel power supply purposes.

you know this is role-playing everything is imaginary ... :rolleyes:

I think you missed the point. With gusto.

I don't care if it's not supposed to go in this thread, I love Leafistan for making someone nuke themselves. Much, much <3
