Grand Bazaar - CLOSED

[Uriel]

Yeah, no. Pass.
Tin coins, realy?

[Attas]

The market was besieged and therefore we are abandoning the project.
I was ready to switch to a gold currency when the siege was declared (some hours after the opening, before anyone even bought tin coins), so we turned our attentions to the defense. The original project was indeed to use a bouillon currency, so all your critics against a fiat tin currency are out of topic.
For the record, we did receive a proposition for Snail to take over the position of lawspeaker of the village and have half of the profit, but we do not trust him enough to have him hold that much power in the market. Furthermore, this was supposed to be a project catered to the community, and having such an antisocial overlord would be against our very principles.
Moderators can close this thread, since I suspect the only replies that will follow will be troll posts from Snail's band.

How can you call it a project catered to the community if you're taking a 10% tax and profiting from it? Irongete's market, where there is no tax is more of a community project.

Further your fate was sealed as soon as you decided to open it in Felix's province and attempt to compete with his in house market, mentioned you were Whatever Bay prior (and the guy who attempted to negotiate for market's defense from Ozzy before), AND chose to brag about it being unsiegable. Also literally using tin coins lmaoooo.

Finally, we do not rely solely on our neutrality to keep the peace. The design and location of the market makes it very easy for us to defend from a siege, so merchants do not have to worry about needing to close the store because of it.

P.S. Don't try again.

The market of Grand Bazaar was destroyed in a siege.

Might've set a new record time for being proved wrong, congrats.

You must really think very little of other people's intelligence to unabashedly say this and expect anyone to take it even remotely seriously

"oh we were JUST about to replace all our worthless fiat coins with gold but then we got sieged : (( ( aw shucks"

Did you feel clever when you typed that one up?

[mulamishne]

I feel bad for anyone who fell for it and turned their gold bars into your tin.
