Markets: We need some statistics.
« on: December 14, 2009, 12:19:21 am »
As you all know, Kore Irka Clan is running an Ojaveda Markets event (which may become a routine event).

We were planning on holding one this month, however with the shift to 0.5.00, we are not sure how the playerbase is. From what I know, many regular players have too many issues to be able to run 0.5 and run a stall at our market. We don't want to run the markets until enough of these regular players can play on 0.5.00 and run a stall.

So what I want to know is this.

Who of our regular players is able to run 0.5.00 to the point where they can reach Ojaveda and would be able to run a stall, and most importantly, has goods they wish to sell or goods their guild wishes them to sell?

All comments appreciated.

I am not able to run 0.5, nor have I any desire to run a stall.

Able to run 0.5, and I don't have anything to sell, but will probably shop around a bit at the markets when they happen.

What does every good trade fair have Tuxide? An ATM. A <Banker> stall seems like a viable investment.

Please post only if you can run 0.5.00 AND wish to rent a stall.

@Timmothy: Markets are on Laanx, not EZPCUSA where <Banker> is.

You maybe roleplaying but you could still be OOC.

0.5 works.
And if the Outlaws aren`t there to do ill, then I can be there with a stall/auction (heck, we`ll probably do both). :devil:

Pelusius is a known merchant, (my alt.) He is normally selling in Hydlaa, but for an event he may be able to lugg all of his things up to Oja.

Thanks for the positive input. We haven't decided whether to do an hourly rate or a single payrate of once for the entire lasting of the market (approx. five hours).

I guess there's no harm in asking whether you'd prefer an hourly or single rate of payment.

Hourly pay will be best for players who cannot spend five hours looking after their stall. Single pay best for those who don't want to pay each hour. With hourly pay you can pay in advance for up to all five hours. The five hour period will be designed as best as possible to stretch between European and American rush periods on a weekend day/night.

Also, we're thinking of a charge of between 100 and 250 Tria per hour (or 2-5circles single pay). What do you think of this charge as far as the roleplay is concerned? It's solely for roleplay, if we were looking at using this to make -real- ingame tria we would be asking for 25k an hour or some horrid amount like that.

I'd love to sell some of my rare weapons and glyphs, but can't run 0.5-- or at least I can't see anything when I do :-(
