Kolonialbeamter Posted February 8, 2017 Huh, wut? What makes you say that? Edit: Hah, yes, it looks indeed like so I know OL paid for their shares to the RNTC. The rest is inner Oleander business. But thanks for the idea, Maxim. Hmm... I guess this could be a worthy money-sink - some are looking for something like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Genaro Posted February 9, 2017 As a general rule, the RNTC will purchase assets; real property, licenses, insurance, port access, receivables, and securities, when the company's officials deem it to be in the company's best interest. Currently, the RNTC has a surplus of cash and very few assets. I can also assure you that the RNTC will disclose all major acquisitions in its quarterly reports. Further inquiries into the RNTC's operations can be addressed in the RNTC thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(More duels!! ) Me want some satisfaction as well. The reason behind the payment still isn't explained properly. It would be a shame that I wake up, read my KPA and discover that Oleon made a dubious agreement with Mardier for a raid on a certain harbour next to one of their newest projects...

Should you at any point in time require similar explanations from Corrington, I assure you we would not be inclined to disclose information regarding internal affairs to foreigners.

Capt Wolf Posted February 9, 2017 Well, as a RNTC preferred stockholder, I think it is reasonable to ask for more information on such a large expenditure without having to wait for the quarterly report. I believe Maxim, Legostone, and I are all preferred stockholders. So, I'm asking: would the RNTC please enlighten its stockholders about this expenditure now?

Jacob Nion Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) My only question is what an npc faction is supposed to do with those doubloons? or does Oleon try to fight inflation by throwing doubloons out of the game system? Edited February 9, 2017 by Jacob Nion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kwatchi Posted February 9, 2017 On 2/8/2017 at 1:53 PM, Maxim I said: So you are saying a lot without explaining why RNTC paid 2.5k to Mardier... Was this all for a laugh or is there something I am not seeing, because I can't find a 'smoking gun' here. Feb 617 Oleon - inflow: 2500 outflow: 9212 RNTC - inflow: 9239 outflow: 5206 Mardier - inflow: 2531 outflow: 31 It looks suspicious I guess, but that is not a zero sum equation. While Ska is playing the Mardier NPC faction that 2.5k could represent money from the old world or any of a hundred other elements that could be in play. I expect the answers will be at most semi-entertaining and in the next KPA. Having said that, I truly hope there is a "secret payoff" because it would be very amusing for me. It's not like ESL didn't spend the fall making enemies with their 1) threatening to invade Oleon proper and 2) declaring war on Mardier over their island squatting. For the so called merchant faction, the greenies are pretty hawkish; heck, they have been "employing" me for 2 months now to do their dirty work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bregir Posted February 9, 2017 Kwatchi, certainly Lord Damaximus, member of the Eslandolan colonial council and thus representative of his state, must have more conclusive evidence than such mere conjecture to make such accusations! Otherwise, it would be absolutely scandalous! :O :P ;) Also, more secret payments, please! ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maxim I Posted February 9, 2017 At Kwatchi, your info is indeed correct :) the 2500 is the missing link between the 5K RNTC spend and the 2,5K Oleon received as inflow. When looking to all other incoming db's, those 2,5K can only have been gone to Mardier :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I think Montoya must be speaking with an Oleander accent these days, given how much he seems to speak for them! Can his own countrymen even understand him anymore?

Bregir Posted February 9, 2017 Corrington is always welcoming improved relations with any nation inclined to a mutually beneficial relation! And certainly, that is why Montoya is trying to defend the actions of Lord Damaximus! Au revoir! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kolonialbeamter Posted February 9, 2017 Wooo, I'm quite enjoying this wild goose chase, here. My preferred contribution so far is the 'prove your innocence!' request...

Captain Dee Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) Well... The RNTC and Oleon certainly have one thing going for them... They're not the ones who set out to Kolonoscopize Mardierian @$$... I mean, can you imagine? That had to be a dirty job. I hope it paid well... Edited February 10, 2017 by Captain Dee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
