Sell 3 Copper for 2.85 Guineas, then invest 2 Guineas in the 'Far Strider'.

Quote from: 'Far Strider' Expedition to the Nearsouthlands
To Queen Phillipa the Fourth,

We, the undersigned, hereby agree to buy a ship, the 'Far Strider', to sail the trade route between the Motherland and the Nearsouthlands. Investments will be as follows:

- 3 Guineas from Noname incorporated
- 3 Guineas from Ship Ship Cargo Corp
- 2 Guineas from Windborne Ventures Company

The profits will be divided between investors according to investment. The destination of the Far Strider can be changed with an affirmative vote comprised of shareholders holding in total 70% or more of the investment in the Far Strider.

Signed:
- Windborne Ventures Company

Any particular reason you guys didn't actually sign the "signatures" bit? Anyway it makes a lot of sense for me to diversify even if market prices are about to take hits all around.



I am willing, if everyone else is, to not sell any copper this turn so as to drive up collective profits as far as possible. But for obvious reasons I don't really want to risk the price dropping.

The signatures bit is redundant. If you're buying shares, you've already "signed" it.

Hahaha, ya right

Any future games will be simpler in nature, I have a bad habit of biting off more than I can chew. Also hoping for more players in them.

I have Discord for my games now(not necessary to play, tho might be easier to contact me): https://discord.gg/DuaARAZ

I don't want to be mean, but I feel like once you're out, you're out. There are just too many exploits possible if you can freely restart with 3 Guineas at any time. That said, I am of course not the GM, so it ain't my call.

@kashyyk
If I’m not allowed to go using a company after liquidating my old one, just take the 3 guinea out of the ship contract, thus taking them out of circulation and SSCC will be no more
If I am allowed to play, then say so

Imho there's no reason to disallow players from rejoining.  If this were a more competitive zero-sum game or even had an actual end goal, then yeah, rejoining would be unfair.  Even as-is, popping back in with 3 Guineas is a much less strong position than the players who have been selling sand for two dozen turns.

I say let naturegirl play. It's cookie clicker, no need to get torn up about it.

I gave this some thought, considering the whether there should be a cost to "death", whether it makes risk too cheap, whether allowing people to rejoin means we'll never get a winner, and then I decided that this is just a made up game between a bunch of people on the internet and it doesn't need to be all that complicated.

I then forgot to actually post.

NatureGirl, and anyone else who collapses, can simply rejoin if they want. I'll probably do the turn by mid week.
