DMG International Bank (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=447266) --- DMG International Bank [v2.0] (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=497893)

IC Thread: A Vault Devoid (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=537079)

Alright, this is an idea I have had for a bit of time now. Basically, without giving away any of the details, someone on the inside is able to extract all of the money from the [read: your] international accounts. Yes, the entirety of the DMG International Bank will be heisted.

The total currently in those accounts is roughly $136,483,834,053,580 USDs. However, some of the accounts, totaling about thirty-six trillion dollars, are insured, thus when the robbery occurs, they will be informed that if the money is not restored within the month, they will be reimbursed in full. However, unless the person is stopped, the other $100,230,090,000,000 USDs will disappear.

Obviously, those people with accounts will want to get the money back as much as the bank itself... so that is what the RP will be about - your efforts to retrieve the money and/or capture the person who did it (identity will be revealed in the OP). All of the people listed below have accounts so they are allowed to participate (so long as they are MT/PMT). However, on a case-by-case basis I will also allow others who have no direct involvement to join. You can participate in a variety of ways so long as they are cleared with me before. If you are signing up or expressing interest in this thread, please just tell me whether you have an account or not and how you will be partcipiating (e.g. I am going to send four agents of our treasury to hunt...)

Note that if this RP occurs, it will have real effects on the International Bank thread including. If the money is not retrieved, the uninsured accounts will lose all of their money and be closed. The bank may also be suspended or worse.

Questions or comments? (I know I wrote this pretty hastily without much direction involved.)

This sounds like an interesting idea. How do we 'find' the thieves? Do you RP as them and decide when they've been found?

Yeah, I am not quite sure yet.

I think what I am going to do is something along the lines of a hunt from place to place. Like your "investigators" (whatever they may be) show up to the Bank to begin their investigation, they search through the clues (that I will determine) and figure out where to go from there. Then in the next place you look around, talk to people, etc.

Sort of like Carmen Sandiego if anyone played it.

Any thoughts on the matter are also helpful.

I've played Carmen Sandiego when I was like 8. It's a pretty good game if I remember correctly. But simple.

I'm slightly interested, mainly because I don't have an account at the DMG Int Bank.

I remember that TV show...used to love it. I think there was a computer game that I had too...whatever. This looks like fun.

I'd like to do it...the Izmaylovskaya Gang is the most powerful group in the Vetalian Mafia and would likely attempt something like this as a way of catapulting themselves in to the top spot of worldwide organized crime.

Well, I don't mean that we will be RPing Carmen Sandiego. More of its one idea of how to RP this idea... with clues and place hopping.

You'll have to think of a reason why you are in.

Aye, computer games came first.

Well, I already had the beginning parts worked out in my head... but I guess I could find away to use Vetalia too. I'll think on it and TG you... or you can propose something.

Thank God for insurance. Id really hate to see the max amount of money depositable go down the tubes for me... My guys would probably just send a note saying that they are sure you are wirking to resolve the problem...

Actually, DMG, I think I might have opened an account back in the COMECON days in the event that the organization was ever revived...let me check the thread to see if it was ever approved.

Don't remember, but go ahead and check (remember there are two threads).

I also delete the accounts of nations that are deleted, so if you were deleted, it may be gone.

Never been deleted. Actually, never even been warned.

Take your time - I don't expect this to get started for at least a couple days if at all.

Well then either you didn't create an account or I missed it initially.

I would like to join this Rp, I don't have an account but my nation is basically a massive international organized crime syndicate. I guess you could label us as possible suspects not that we will admit to anything...

Would it be alright if I sent in a group of Bountry Hunters who are trying to steal the money from the robbers?

Hmm...

Alright, seeing as a couple of people have expressed interest in their crime syndicates getting involved in some way, I am open to ideas about how the RP is going to work... I still think I want the theft to start a certain way I have planned, but after about the first two posts, I don't really have a plan... so... anyone?

Would it be alright if I sent in a group of Bountry Hunters who are trying to steal the money from the robbers?

Theoretically you could, but as people will see in the IC OP, they aren't exactly walking around with suitcases containing one hundred trillion dollars...

So I'm not exactly sure how you plan on stealing it from them. But sure...

How about the robbers get double crossed by the syndicate's and thus the money is split up between the factions? It would make the money harder to find and would make an interesting Rp for the hunters to find the cash, considering organizations like mine can hide such assets under paperwork and shell companies until we need to use it...

Basically, they would be playing the same role as investigators, i.e. trying to gather as much information about the heist as they can and try and locate the robbers.

Alright... Seeing as there are two crime syndicates that want to be involved (you and Vetalia), how about the thief uses both to hide/protect some of the stolen assets.

I am sure there will be plenty of double crossing involved in this RP.

I could have my crime syndicate, The Vayal, in on this. And my police.

Well, I don't exactly need lots of crime syndicates...

But I guess so...

Damn, just as I was thinking of opening an account....seriously, I was. Maybe after this I'll start one and get insured. As for now, tagged for interest.

Not saying it will happen, but there is the potential that DIB never recovers from this.

Hmm...maybe one of the Izmaylovskaya's legitimate business allies will launch a hostile takeover with their help once the theft has occurred.

I don't have an account, but I'd be interested as one of the bank robbers. Possibly as a single mercenary hired to do this job along-side some other group(s).

Of course, if there's already too many criminals, then I'll bow out.

Yes, there are too many criminals. Not to mention that I have already said that I am the one who is going to initiate the theft with an inside man...

Me thinks I should TG everyone with an account.

Awesomeness. Thanks for the TG. Yeah I'm interested. Actually this will be very interesting for my nation. Since I'm beginning a war with Kraven every scrap of money and resource will be needed by the government. Especially 3.6 odd billion dollars. Nice I look forward to this.

Ut-oh I didn't have insurance our account is probably all but finished. We will certianly want to hunt down some of the criminals who created this and bring them to justice. Or at least Kuronan justice. Much of investments from Kuronan's citizens went to this account.

Any ideas on the RP as a whole would be great.

I'm certainly interested having military investigators

I never really did RP a robbery, Maybe I could do this, can I have police invesigators

I'm certainly interested having military investigators
You'd have to justify bringing the military into a civilian manner. And they definitely would not be allowed on Dominion sovereign soil.

Well, it's not going to be like a typical rob a bank story with masked gunmen. This is like robbing UBS... except 100 times bigger.

I'd like to participate, since I have an account there and all. I'll be some secret agents from the government trying to recover the cash.

I know this is not going to be a typical bank robbery, we are talking about trillions of dollars instead of millions.


Luckily I insured my account.

The money was the militaries after all... They's want to have their own investigators sent as much as any private firm. Though I'd agree that they'd have to have your government's approval. Seeing as they are military. (which could add some complications to the investigation. process..)

And also there's the embarrassment military and govenment in having their money stolen

Yes, lucky indeed. However, there are ways in which that money might not be repaid, such as if DIB can't afford it or goes out of business.

Well, I assume the military reports to the civilian government? In which case they can send civilian investigators. You can try all you like to send military ones ICly, but they will be rejected.

I'll RP some people trying to break into the Bank to get my account money.

What? I am not even sure what that means. The money will be gone. That is what happens when something is stolen, it disappears.

never mind, anyway I wuill be RPing police investigators that will try to find the money.

Question: Can I bring special forces?

To answer both questions at once, special forces will not be allowed or be able to really find away into DMG.

However, once the trail leaves the mainland, which I am revealing that it will quite quickly (like after the first scene where the investigators are looking for the first clues and such), you can do so.

OKay, when do we start? (I know I am a little anxious to start.)

Actually, I just realized I have two civilian characters in mind that I haven't used lately...they'd do well for this. They'd pose as investigators, so they could be allowed into the actual robbery scene and the DMG mainland in general.

Can i join as a Crime Syndicate

OKay, when do we start? (I know I am a little anxious to start.)
Well, not for at least a day or two. I just TGed people who have accounts a few hours ago so I am going to give them some time to respond.

Ah, that works too. Just remember that these guys will have to have the full background workup (like CIA undercover made) so that they look official or else they will be discovered real fast.

Can i join as a Crime Syndicate
Sorry, no. There are too many already and frankly they will just become repetitive in their use. "Hide this money for me (the robber) and keep it safe. Oh, and protect me. Thanks."

OOC: Boy was I smart when I signed up for insurance, wasn't I? :) I'll participate and my other account is actually the Nacht Schatten account for the Illuminati. They'll be playing an active role as well. We'll contribute to the "hunt" of this(these) barstards who stole the money.

I thought I had insurance but oh well... Any way. I also have an offer for anyone who would like to work jointly with me. I will admit I am a little rusty though... I've been off here for several months now...

I'll be hunting of course... If I remember right I have a rather large account there...

Indeed you did.

Now correct me if I am wrong, but depending on how things go, is it possible for agents/investigators from one nation to be able to re-acquire a larger than their share of money?

Correct indeed. Depending on how it goes and how the money is reacquired, it could be possible to recover part or all of the money, larger than one's account. Now, this could piss off some other people including the bank itself, but that is up for the RP.

Nice. That just makes this all the more interesting. Once the thread starts I'll probably post a communication that whatever Chechen investigation/intelligence bureau/agency will be working on the case with the Dominion or something like that. You know how those cop movies go. On the desk investigation followed up with field work using government agents.

And on top of that some nations may try to hide some useful information in the hopes of getting more money.. ho-ho this has all the potential of a Cold War spy thriller :D

....well almost...

Indeed...

And don't let me prevent this from turning into a global conflict :p

Heh, I was looking forward to one...

Seeing as we have a good number of people already, I will give other people (random and those who I TGed) until Tuesday or Wednesday before I start the RP (depending on if I have time Tuesday, which I'm not sure about). However, I will allow some people to join afterwards, especially if they were TGed because they have accounts...

DMG, if you're still taking people, I'd like to have some investigators from the Royal Altanari Police Force and the Ministry of Justice jump in to try and help track the robbers down. Altanar had insured their deposit, but since there's a slight (fingers crossed) chance that the bank could go under and thus never repay, the government would want to make sure the bad guys get caught.

@All: If I post the thread today, it won't be until late tonight... so I may just hold off until tomorrow.

Question: Do we want to just use this as the OOC thread, or should I create a new one?

hey, I got your tg. I'd also like to join the RP, undoubtably my state security forces will want to find and interrogate (or torture, i doubt they'll care) whoever did this.

HEy sup. Looks like we'll get to RP with each other again after all :).

Doesn't look like I will have much time today either, so it will have to wait until tomorrow to begin. Sorry guys.

Ouch! I've put a lot of USD into that bank! I suppose I'll have to take part in this, probably have some Black Ops try to go in and get our money back. They'll probably use brutal tactics to get what they want, after the investigation I mean. Some people might call these tactics small-scale terrorism.


If they fail though, Antanjyl will probably attempt to assassinate a few of the higher ups in the bank hierarchy, for the sake of getting some compensation for what was lost. Thats business for you though.

I think just about everyone will use torture...

Alright, but know that your Blacks Ops men won't be able to begin their "investigation" until Scene 1 has ended and the trail leaves the DMG mainland.

That second part could also be an interesting spin-off RP (among others suggested), so don't forget about it when this is done. In fact... an idea came to me as I am writing this... somebody previously mentioned a hostile takeover of DIB if it loses its money... so perhaps we could put both of those into one RP... *thoughts*

HEy sup. Looks like we'll get to RP with each other again after all :).

:P I've been RP in my region offsite you see, so I don't really want to move back to II. However, this was to good to turn down.

I think it would make sense if we had a seperate ooc thread just to make it simpler.

Can't blame you but I look forward to it.

I'm gonna be real busy tomorrow too, but I may get the thread up before I leave around noon or at night.

I would like to send a team of my Black Ops agents in to try and assist in the capture of these men. Stealing of information related to defense contracts in any way shape or form is considered a capital crime in our nation. We will gladly try to wipe out these cretins.

A) The theft was comitted outside your jurisdiction, and thus would not be considered as such. Unless you plan on claiming sovereignty and jurisdiction over the world, you wouldn't be able to prosecutre him. Then again, Black Ops don't exactly need the law to kill a man.
B) How is money equivalent to information?
C) As stated before, Black Ops or special forces of any kind won't be allowed to begin the investigation until after it leaves the Dominion mainland.

Thread is up! A Vault Devoid (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=537079)

Please keep all OOC comments to this thread, because I get really pissed off about that crap and I won't tolerate it.

You can respond to the message ICly, but there is no need to unless you have a question for the President. Note, if you are planning to write about the trip there, you would have to fly through Viscount International Airpot (an island built just as an airpot) and the security associated with it followed by the trip to Dominion National Airport on the mainland. However, you can just have your investigators arriving at the building and beginning their investigations...

Please no God-Modding or figuring out too much too quickly too easily.

Hyst would defiantly be interested that so much money was stolen. Hyst would utilize all of its intelligence network in conjunction with special ops and on the ground investigators in order to track down the lost funds. With the severity of the theft eliminating the rainy day fund for emergency funds, this theft compromises the internal stability of Hyst itself.

Splendid.

Alfegos Rare Earth Metal Co. will take interest in this thread, by the ruthless hunting down of any criminals with its infamous coporate division licensed by the government.

They are equipped for non-lethal warfare.

Offical Greal Statement

Greal will like to send police investigators to help with your search for the money.

1) You are going to have to do a little more RPing than that.
2) I have already acknowledged that foreign investigators will be allowed, so it is basically a wasted statement

OOC: I don't know what time zone you operate under but all times here are GMT-5 so I'm assuming you're hours ahead of me in time, which is why it is morning here for me. Let me know if I am mistaken.

If they would accept assistance, the Empire would send an investigative team of four people, two men and two women, all highly specialized in electronic fraud and computer crimes.

1) IRL I am in GMT-5 (EST in the US). ICly I am on DMT+12 (Dominion Standard Time)
2) I am just going to assume (as I stated in the message) that everyone knows that they can send civilian investigators. So, just assume you got a positive response.

snip

1) As written in the first post, the head of the bank is the President, not the CEO.
2) Did you really just threaten to sticky someone? Ooh, scary...
3) I doubt they will take kindly to threats. Your men may be denied access into the country. We will see...


@All: I am going to wait a little bit for more people to post; however, when I do make my next post, it will probably be (at least in part) setting up the scene at the bank where your investigators can appear. That is to say where they arrive and begin their investigation, whatever that entails. So, unless stated in my future post, assume your investigators were allowed entry and arrived at the bank (you can write it all out if you want).

However, if some of you are expecting any direct response, a lot of you have left me nothing to write. No matter though, I will make the next post tomorrow probably - not sure. *rambles*

I know I'm one of those people who hasn't left you anything to reply to; my plan was that I'd RP them arriving at the bank after you post the scene, and then it'd be a normal conversation affair...

Warmaster: What happened here?
DMG: Robbery.
Warmaster: How much got taken?
DMG: All of it.

And so on. Though hopefully more detailed. :)

Yeah, I was just mentioning that if anyone was expecting responses, they probably wouldn't get them.

Feel free to post them arriving now. As stated, I am going to hold off on setting the scene at arrival until tomorrow.

@Greal:
1) "Alarm the DMG"... ... ...
2) Twenty investigators is probably going to be a large amount compared to other people's groups.
3) Those weapons are not going to be allowed through the security at VIA.


@All: I just realized that I might want to use a couple of other nations (besides my own and its holdings) for the RP to take place in. So if you are interested, say so and I can talk to you via TG or MSN/AIM or something about it. It will probably be a stop there for some reason and some evidence or whatever turning up. I am open to suggestions.

You can use Celtayoshi. If these guys have no known previous history we would have no reason to turn them away.

Nope, they won't have anything on record yet. Thanks.

Alright, question. Where in the world is DMG located and under what time zone?

I think I said it was GMT+12... it's in the antarctic... south of New Zealand.

I was busy with the launch of my new thread World of Magic this afternoon and I am doing other stuff tonight, so I won't have time to make a post. However, nobody else that signed up as really posted since yesterday, so waiting until tomorrow won't be all bad.

OOC: Edited my post to include the massive time difference (17 hours behind for Layarteb City) and the flight over, which because of its 10,000 miles {yes that far} will take about 24 hours of flying because of stop overs so my team should be there around 20:30 hours, local time, Tuesday night.

Okay. When I post tomorrow, I will probably set the scene around tuesday morning.

It's all good... I can't wait to interrogate though...

And you play soccer? High five dude, what position?

I changed from middy to back this year.

Nice... I'm listed on my team as a defensive sub but our defense usually holds through the game so I only ever get playing time at outside mid. Although I'm fine with that right now because I'm injured and we have plenty of people to play there...

Heh, I've been injured for the last three weeks (since the first day of preseason), and I am having to play through it all.

Yea, I started to get shin splints as we went into our second week of training. That was probably about 3 weeks too... they keep coming back though, havent been able to do a full practice since then...

Eh, for me, it's more like every part of my leg has some problem with it.

And now that school has started and all that other fun stuff, I realize that I won't be able to make a response to everyon until Saturday afternoon. :(

Okay... Ummm Hopefully we wont go to far this weekend... I'm going to DC...

Well guess where I live...

Should be fun though. We always go to veiw the memorials at night... The Vietnam is really amazing to see at night...

St John's College High School... yeah, I know some people there.

I'm sorry but I'm afraid I'll have to drop out of this rp. My harddrive crashed and with school just starting I can't see anytime for an rp like this. Have fun.

Completely understandable - I feel the same way about school and this.

Well anyway, I just finished this weekend's soccer tournament, so after I rest a bit, I'll see if I can get some stuff up.

OOC: Cool stuff. I eagerly await to get into that foray and find out where my money is...oh wait...I am insured ;).

lol, we'll see if they can afford to repay everyone or just go under and liquidate all their assets.

You were playing in the tourny too? What team are you on?

GDS.

And don't say shit. That was preseason. We came in second (3-0) to Sidwell because they scored more goals.

Hey, I wasn't gonna say anything. In fact, the reason Sidwell kicked our asses was because we got all cocky after beating you and didn't come out to play; we tied Wilson today, and they're a better team.

Incidentally, though, (no offense) I went to your school to wrestle last year...it's ridiculously different from every school on the planet and it scared the shit out of me.

And sorry for all the OOC, but the main thread seems to be dead, since everybody has school.

Well, we didn't really come out for the game against you either.

We have Sidwell on Tuesday as our season opener.

Well, by "different," I am sure you mean "better." :p

Nobody's fault by my own. However, I will make this offer to everyone seeing as I have little time to RP and everyone else is getting back into the school routine also. If you guys would like, we can put this RP on hold for a while and come back to it when there is more time... or we can just continue like this and recognize that it might be kind of slow.

Can't blame you, historically our program has been a pile of shit. And good luck against Sidwell. Don't know about better...:p although your underground basketball court is pretty chill.

I'm ok with either option. It WILL be slow if we continue now; I don't really mind, given that I won't have all the time in the world myself. I think if we let it pause, though, it might wilt and die on the shelf...your call though.

Nope, the word is better... :p

The voting continues...

Hey all, new post is up. Again, my apologies about taking so long, and the offer still stands to put it on hold - up to you guys.

Basically, the scene is set for your investigators to arrive at the bank (so long as they agree/submit to the stuff in the segment about the airport). Feel free to start the investigations...

@Warmaster: The building works as such. It goes deep into the ground, with the final floor being the vaults, accessible only by special elevator. An elevator than runs all the way from the second-to-bottom floor (the executive floor) to the second-to-top floor. Then there are stairs from second-to-top floor to the top floor. Finally, stairs lead from the top-floor to the surface above... which is just a large, flat plaza. It is kind of a grand staircase, but above ground all there is to see is the entrance to the stairs leading down.

@Warmaster: I am not really going to be able to respond to every little post by everyone... so when it is something as insignificant as walking to the President's office, please do so on your own. I have ICly indicated as much by telling where the office is and I do not wish to have this devolve into two liners of "Joe walked into the office and looked around the evidence," and nothing more.

*Tired*

Gotcha, I understand. Some people don't like others to take liberties, but I'll edit to bring him at least into the office...the President is gonna have to be you, of course. Sorry.

EDIT: Done.

I am generally one of those people, but in this thread, the situation may warrant it in most cases (except dealing with specifics of the crime).

Yes, I shall respond with the President... though I'd hope it isn't just responding to a greeting. The awkwardness of NS IC conversation, as strange as it may be, keeps it from being so short...

Eeek... only three responses to my post a week ago.

OOC: Yeah I'm stuck on a plane until late Tuesday so not a whole lot I can RP at the moment for it LOL. By the way, my investigators have concealed carry permits and what not. What's that going to be like when they land? They are all carrying.

Their guns would be removed or they would be denied entry. The Dominion does not respect foreign gun permits.

That's just the rules of the Dominion. Guns are highly restricted to the point where pretty much only law enforcement and military have them.


On another note, nobody is posting.

I posted.

I posted.

I know... but I mean of the twenty people that signed up, only three made posts after mine.

OOC: Ooo foo :( by the way check your TG's.

Alright, in large part due to my own fault... this is going on perma-pause.

I think I'll just write up a brief about what happened in the end :(

OOC: Ooo foo :( by the way check your TG's.

[OOC: Got it. Thanks]
