it was in the email they sent outHow do you know 40k are sold
Got an email yesterday from MA pushing those deeds.
Apparently 40K deeds sold already at the max January discount.

Ignoring Compet, all previous deeds were based on existing systems with existing payouts.
This venture to give out deeds with no payout to pay for future stuff, is completely the wrong direction. It begs of . . . . we don't have enough money to expand our game, its not going great ........(talking of arkadia) .........and they still don't advertise the game (MA or Arkada). So all arkadia are going to do is use the existing player base which will only dilute the AUD's payout.
Why the F*** don't these people advertise.

I still say Mindark should set aside something somewhere and get an ad on the superbowl in a year or 3. Godaddy did it and became popular overnight.
so even though this is the last day of the discounted price, they only sold 20% of the deeds ?! nice...
makes one wonder if they will even have enough funding to go through with the project; any if they do and they sell 99.99% of the deeds, we will still not be able to sell our deeds in-game; so if we cannot sell them "in-game" as they stated, will we be able to sell them exactely where? if they don't get enough funding, will i be refunded or what? how? pedcard?
imo there's too many blanks regarding this so called dark moon...
Think u mean 25 usd...last day for 50 ped!
Hurry hurry!
Think u mean 25 usd...
lol, yeah, well, sorta.
Not 25 usd, but 5 USD

I think MA has been using this model for a while now.
While not called 'deeds' MA used 'licenses' in the same way.
Banks, malls, and Monria were all sold first then built.
I think the same is true for CND although I don't remember exactly.
In each of these MA used money from the sale of the item to pay for the development of the item. The buyer took a risk that MA would deliver.
The Arkadia Moon deeds are the same except instead of one buyer taking a huge risk you have hundreds or thousands taking lesser risk.
Ain't the case since the gambling commission has looked at Entropia at least twice and in both cases indicated more or less that they don't care about Entropia as far as it is related to gambling...My speculations about the non advertising is that gambling is government owned and strictly regulated in Sweden and MA doesent want to get looked at by the gambling committe and be classified as a casino.
However i bought 50 deeds.
The Swedish Gambling Authority has investigated the “Loot” system in Entropia Universe in journal number 13Li3786. The investigation was closed on the 30 of October 2013.
The Swedish gambling market is regulated by The Swedish lottery act (1994:1000). The general rule is that lotteries must not be arranged except by permit (Section 9, Lotteries Act). Permits may in principle only be granted to non-profit making associations whose activities are for the public benefit (Section 15, Lotteries Act), it is thus not sufficient for a permit to be granted that the proceeds of the lottery are applied for charitable purposes.
There are two possibilities for The Swedish Gambling Authority to act in cases of suspicion of crime, one is to submit to the suspect with a penalty (Vite) the second one is to notify the police. To submit the suspect with penalty it is required to that the offense has been committed within Swedish jurisdiction, this means a server is located in Sweden or the person or company that offers the lottery lives in Sweden.
It also requires an exact moment when the crime has been committed. It is, therefore, necessary to secure documentation of a Swedish player who lives in Sweden when he or her wins “Loots” in order to prove that the location of the criminal act is within the Swedish jurisdiction and that the legal person responsible for lottery is Swedish. The Swedish Gambling Authority would likely need to dedicate an employee on full-time to play in Entropia Universe before the possibility of gaining loots in Entropia Universe. It has to been proved that the actual legal person which is responsible for lottery is Swedish, in this case, MindArk and that it is not arranged by a foreign subsidiary to MindArk. This would require a thorough investigation concerning MindArks corporate structures.
Anyone may make a police report at suspicion of a criminal offense. It is likely to assume that the circumstance needs to be proven up to the level which is mentioned above in order for the Swedish court to decide on a punishment on a suspected crime. The Swedish Gambling Authority has come to the conclusion that current circumstances isn´t sufficient evidence to make a police report, if you wish to make a police report, please notice attached contact details below
Circumstances of the case Entropia Universe has been put forward for head of department in the case of how the matter should be handled. Head of operational department which is responsible for the prioritization and allocation of resources, has decided that The Swedish Gambling Authority currently does not have the opportunity to further investigate the matter with reference to the extensive resource case would take.

Unfortunately, we can not return items or money lost due to a scam. Since all items in Entropia Universe have a real value we instead advise you to consider filing an official police report about your lost items. If the police contact us, we will cooperate with them and submit all available logs we have.
Another source of income are fees and commissions attached to the in-game auction and player's shops. Every sale on the auction and shops produces a sales commission that also gets shared 50:50 between Mindark and the Planet Partner.

Why they want money over webshop and not peds for stuff like moon deeds and why they foster strongboxes so hard, in my opinion because they know best that entropia has a massive ammount of peds that are not coverd by real funds and if those are used to buy the deeds no money for development / operating the buissnes is earned.
You can withdraw your peds and than buy from webshop but if everyone do this at the same time thats probably the end of EU
Or is my interpretation of the eula that wrong ?
