Private Contest

[Zbombe]

Ok, what's the minimum legal price of stones? Today my first part of contest must finish. Please answer fast!

Presents, credits or trades with an extreme advantage on one side are not allowed. If one of these things is detected the account in question will be deleted.

Here's the answer.

Omg, can you imagine that winner of a lottery must pay much for his prize?

I ask, because i don't want to be banned. It's not an advantage on one side, every time winner is other, so there's no risk of cheating, i think.

Is it 9? 10? I need to send the prize fast. By the way you can check the winner, that he has never met me (and i've never met him).

dear mate - i cant believe, that you dont stop discussions about the rules.

as i started my internal contests, i cleared some things with Goldeneye, but i cleared it with pm and not inside the forum.

what you are doing, is bad advertisement for the TIB.

i wrote you a msg, and told you a price. but you ignored it and carry on with your discussions.

i hope, the mods close this thread. the final answer of zbombe was correct.

Power Enterprise, please stop asking for something they can't give you. Prices are always changing due to the market, there is no set price to tell you for stones, or anything else in the game. The rules state, you can't sell at great advantage to one party, this also applies on private contests. TIB has always, and will always, respect the rules of the game, and this includes the rules which may be vague or unclear to some.

I appreciate your eagerness to help small companies, it is one of the important aspects to TIB, and this is fine, but please understand that you will not get an answer to your questions here, because your questions are impossible to answer. To hold such a lottery in TIB, it would have to be ok with the administration there, and I can tell you, it is not. Please message me in the forum if you need more clarification.

Thanks

I do agree with powerenterprise that "don't sell it too low" is a vague rule. Rules should be as clear as possible and not open for different interpretations.
It's like you'd put a sign at the side of the road saying "don't drive too fast". One policeman might think 120km/h is too fast, the other might say 90km/h is too fast. This is clearly not a good rule.
I like the fact that he takes an initiative to try to make the game more fun and because the game developers can't make a contest right now, I think he shouldn't be held back in his attempt to make on himself.
So just to support his initiative, and to make one of the rules better, can't you just say something like: "you can't sell under that percentage of the production price (if you make everything yourself)"

cash money brothers, was it a PM or message here? On TIB forum and here i have no PM's, so i think it was here. I read it carefully, but remember that i promised very low price, and now i try to get knowledge how to solve the problem. That's why i continue discussion. I know TIB respects rules, and i respect them too, so i ask here about them, if i don't know something. If i would not respect the rules, i'd send these stones and forget about it.


Halee-Burton, i ask the minimum price that i can send my stones and not be banned. I never break rules, and i'm not going to. And, as i posted earlier, that's why i ask about all here. I just want to know what is the minimum price to realize prizes. If noone want to somebody see it, it may be on PM, no matter. I just want to send prize, and not get banned. Is it bad that i want play fair?

BennyCorp, thanks for approbation. Your example is very good, such i think. Rules should be clear. If there is in rules written, that you can't sell under for example 50% less than NPC sells, it's more clear than you can't sell too cheap.

Now i've got a problem, because i promised lottery players that i'll send them very cheap stones, and now i can't do that because then i'll get banned. I know it's my mistake that i first made a lottery, and then asked here, but i expected fast replies and fast finish this topic.
