That sounds like fairly reasonable statistics. If someone writes out some specific scenarios I suppose I'll take a look and do some number-crunching when I am slightly less busy. 天火狐 On 23 September 2017 at 16:36, Kerim Aydin wrote: > > > It sounds like the kind of

Re: DIS: Economy and Games

I have an idea for making goods which is bouncing around in my mind, but I haven't the time to sit down and write it out. It'd also be my first proposal, so I'm a bit apprehensive at throwing it out into the wild without double-checking some basic things first. 天火狐 On 23 September 2017 at 19:01,

I think that is a wise plan. I feel like I didn't do very much aside from watch for the first six months I was playing (my organization notwithstanding). 天火狐 On 22 September 2017 at 13:25, ATMunn . wrote: > Thanks for the welcome package, whether it actually worked or

Aw, I won't be able to keep / recreate 蘭亭社 under the new proposal. I'll have to rethink how to test the things that should go with it should this pass. I would like to propose adding making CFJs as protected. I think the reason thereof should be evident if one were party to a theoretical contract
