Jadek Menaheim Xer Cloud Consortium 243	Posted - 2013.11.09 17:48:00 - [1] - Quote As you are all aware, ISK raffles have been popping up on the forums for a while now. I want to suggest a new approach to the system. The Xer Cloud Consortium is a corporation with 5300 available merc slots, just about enough to cover a sizable percentage of the community. All members have open wallet access to which they are instructed to steal from and use at their discretion. I am offering any wealthy merc in the community an invitation to notify this forum topic when they are interested in running an ISK raffle. The following protocol would entail that this merc apply one of their lesser identifiable alt characters to our corp. This alt character would be hold the contents of the isk raffle proceeds. Once processed into our system and given director privileges I would suggest this merc drop the isk money at a random time and watch as unknowing corp members scramble to get their hands on the massive pot. Again, this is an open invitation to use the Xer Cloud Consortium as a platform for frenzied isk raffles. Search XERCC in the corporation tab.

This isn't about petty cash. I'm suggestion a system where a person can drop 100mil or 200mil at a single random time and let people scramble to access it.

This isn't trust either, it's a game where you randomly choose when to make the drop. Think outside the box sir. This is meta gaming at it's finest.

I believe the founders of this corp have already stated that this is an experiment. If I'm wrong, then IMO it is an experiment :D Yes, you are right on the money. This is an experiential initiative that people have free access to try. And we have the space to accommodate.

It would be an excellent way to keep the troll ball rolling. [sig=hex.dec]4d7920313333372048617830727a2078706c6f747a20522058706f7364206259206c766c2035204330646562386b727a[/sig]

Hence why we refer to ourselves as honest scumbags. We are upfront that we don't employ high minded tactics.

This is a sandbox, and we are here to explore those possibilities. Ok well I'm just gonna go brick tank my Logistics mk.0 Slap a complex damge mod on it and run a Duvolle (at prof 2). Heck i'll even "trow" a Core Locus Grenade into the mix. After all, it's just exploring the possibility of a sandbox right? Now you're thinking. Push the mechanics so hard and rough that we force CCP to make changes. That's how it works in EVE.

However, among all of those false flags some person may actually decide to drop 1 billion isk. You never know with a meta game fueled adventure.

Jadek Menaheim Xer Cloud Consortium 245	Posted - 2013.11.09 20:21:00 - [13] - Quote I'm sure there's got to be one taker willing to step up on the forums. We already had one guy try it out on a small scale within our corp. Awry Barux randomly put down 2 million isk into the corp. I happened to see that, withdrew it and donated it all back to him plus everything I had in my personal savings, which amounted to 1,437,000 isk. It's so fun being a crook and a philanthropist. While something that's a little shy of 3.5 million is small change in Dust, it's still decent. Look forward to higher amounts flowing through the wallet.

I even put ISK back in at random times and just watch the wallet. Eventually, there will be a 300M+ wallet that someone will make off with, and I'll be the first to congratulate them on the grab. I'm more concerned on some of the more Troll-sy things we can do honestly. BPOs in PC for awesome drops? Costs me nothing and I get Prototype **** back. Sign me up!
