Makes the £30 for a Custom pic seem like a good deal.

Good god, maybe JLH will try to sell Chronos to some player for 30k dollars and we will have to pay taxes if we want a BoT.

I can't believe anyone is idiotic enough to actually waste that much money on a virtual area.

I hope he realized that he wasnt buying a real island.

[Squee]

I think he bought in in the hopes of being able to make a profit from taxing people to...umm..."hunt and mine gold on his island"?

And you know what, I bet he's going to make some good spending money over the next year (though, I doubt he'll break even).

just some background on project entropia, it's a scam. over the years they've developed a half dozen ways to accept players' money and have spent over a year figuring out how to return money, still trying too. thier idea of balance is that you can at max make up for 90% of your investment by stretching every last penny (or pec) without random bonus's. which means you lose money until you hit a small jackpot. the only difference between project entropia and a real casino is that casinos have llimited control over the variables that make them profitable, entropia has complete control over all the variables and makes very devious use of them all.

deathifier is just one of many fools who believes that playing large makes the payoff easier to attain. one of these days some poor penniless schmuck whose girlfriend rightfully left him for someone who isn't addicted to entropia and trying to win the publisher's clearing house sweepstakes is going to mail-bomb mindark. well, as soon as he finds out that bjork screens her mail now.

i don't know if i didn't make it clear, but i just can't understand how someone could drop 20 bucks, much less 30 grand, and not feel mindark slapping your ass in the middle of a vigorous anal pounding.

If I had that much money to waste, I wouldn't waste it.

wow, that sounds INSANE. what a preposterous thing to do. oh, and i heard about this other guy who would buy cable lines, routers, construct servers, create lines of code, personally house all these items AND finance all this by himself to create an online RPG for tohers to enjoy. what kind of whacko does that?

i also can't believe this jack ass the other day who purchased a couple of squiggly lines on a piece of canvas for $14,000. just because it had some dudes name on it, i think it was Pollock....anyway, it's just a silly piece of paper.

...wait, i actually figured out why all these people did these things: becuase they wanted to. just like i spent $0.25 on a super bouncy ball and $50 on a hooker. i wanted to.

*me spell bad

i don't think you get the point. you can blow as much money on three card monty as you like. that's cool, it's your choice. you're still retarded when you believe you can win the next game.

Selling the tower of pandilex, $22,000

[sonic87]

i'd probrably spend it on games, systems, flash animator,and ram

[Gaddy]

el ho el. I could completely go for playing the game without spending money and then selling stuff I get through playing without buying anything.

Anway, what's going to be funny--They will make sure that this guy makes real money off of it. He'll make money and they will jump all over it and have it covered as much or more than him spending the 26 grand to attract more attention to their game.
Will be funny nuts.


Anyway, with 26 grand, I could make my mom very happy. I think I would opt to do that than spend it on anything else.
