Hi there and well met!

Hi there all (especially ViperStrike) I am new to PE, being born on Arkadia five days ago, and moving to Caly four days ago. I think that first spaceflight had me hooked I really like the fact you can have large teams and space combat. So I will be partying with many of you I am sure, as I already have a large Society, and good mentor. My forum name and my ingame name are

myladyloves (forum)
Aurae Ultra Angeleon (ingame)

Thanks again https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/forums/images/smilies/smoke.gif

[Viperstrike]

HELLO!!!

Well met Boogin, what is your ingame avatar name so I can add it to the register ?

Hi again Viper !

I'd like to register as a TT human, when I'll get back my ped, I should afford 200 ped furnitures

See ya !

Hi Irindia,

Sure thing, I will add you to the list of human TTs

Looking for more TT machines still folks, please post your interest!

 

[Viperstrike]

hello viper, I am very interested in being your ore/enmatter buyer

Fantastic News ,

I will add you as the first ore/enmatter partner, there is another to come onboard so whoever is around at the time, I will divide up what I can fairly between you both.

Welcome aboard John as a co-operative co-sponsor to this initiative

And no stress on pricing, I am just looking for a fair price from both of you as partners with the understanding you also need to make a profit too in doing this.

Cheers,
Viper

Hi Viper count me in

Hi,

I admittedly have to say that I am pretty slack when going through twins and seeing what is on offer,
To be honest I turn off the trade channel most of the time

So,

Now that some interested has been generated, I guess it is time to leave trade channel on from now on.

I have had a few people ask me if I am willing to sell my ores and enmatters to them. I understand that this would be cheaper than the market average and am willing to do that, but only to a degree.

If you are a reseller of ores or minerals or you have a friend/contact you know who does "fair" pricing, then I am more than happy to listen to what is on offer.

Would asking for 5% less than the average markup be asking too much ? Suggestions feedback welcomed.

I am happy to mention you as co-sponsor to this initiative if you are willing to offer a good deal on what I mine to support this initiative for the period of 2013 and then after that we will see where this all leads 2014 and beyond.

What I am looking for is ~ 5% less than market markup average, it will be your call as to the exact %, but if you feel that this offer interests you please feel free to contact me here on the forums in PM.

Thanks,
Viper

you know i make better rates, than what you need, so count me in

 

[Viperstrike]

Updating the anti - Now registering 10% of all globals and 15% of HoFs over 1000 PED.

Hi folks,

It would seem this task (without going about it foolishly hunting & mining) will be a tough one!

So to make the job a little easier, I will now update the way it will work.

Previously:

How does this work?:

For each HoF I receive in any given month of 500 PED or above, I will contribute 10% of the HoF total into a pool to be given away the following month as "Newcomer starter packs" and a portion as the grand prize.

For each HoF I receive within a given month of 1000 PED or above, I will contribute 15% of the HoF total to the pool.

If within the given month, my HoF totals of 500 PED and above total to more than 10,000 PED, I will again contribute another 500 PED to the total pool to be given away.

If within the given month, my HoF totals of 500 PED and above total to more than 20,000 PED, I will again contribute another 2,000 PED to the total pool to be given away.

If within the given month, I ATH 50,000 PED or above, I will again contribute another 5,000 PED to the total pool to be given away.

Updating to:

• {Newly Added} All hunting & mining globals will now be contributed to the pool @ 10%
• For each HoF I receive within a given month of 1000 PED or above, I will contribute 15% of the HoF total to the pool.
• If within the given month HoFs total more than 10,000 PED, I will again contribute another 1,000 PED to the total pool to be given away.
• If within the given month HoFs total more than 20,000 PED, I will again contribute another 2,000 PED to the total pool to be given away.
• If within the given month I ATH 50,000 PED or above, I will again contribute another 5,000 PED to the total pool to be given away.

Heya mate, friend of mine dobrinocb told me some good words about you. Didn't know your another player from australia. I'm from aus, stuck in melb i guess. Importantly HELLO to you and all the crew. I appreicate the info you are pumping out helping everyone out. If there is anything I can do just let us know mate.

take care and enjoy. I'm a nub that started several days ago sweating my butt off.

 

[Kuantrz]

Smart to add globals aswell when 500+ hofs are kinda rare on 1k hp mobs :-D Looks like this might have a bright future for many newcomers. Gj and gl!

Nice and generous initiative Viperstrike.

However... Be careful not to feed the farmers. We don't want your peds to go those ppl who make 10 newbie accounts every day, to farm start gear from MA etc.

Otherwise, gl

Aye I agree, I think adding globals is the best way to play and pay it forward.

Herb Box to replace HR1 (L) in newcomer initiative starter packs.

Healing Kit: Chikara Ashvin HR1 (L) ~ 7 ped with markup (4 Ped TT)

Well folks,

It seems I am going to have a lot of trouble getting this HR1 Healing Kit (FAP);
So now I am looking at other options.

The most likely will be the Herb Box from Next Island Acient Greece.
5 PED TT + 1 PED in pickup and delivery costs from the TT there.

Anyway here is the stats on the item from www.entropiawiki.com

I will update the main post in the morning with the new FAP (healing Kit).

Must sleep, 4.40am

Good Night All,

[Viperstrike]

Hi All,

Today I am being a bit lazy (up very late last night) though I have almost completed my Atrox & Ambulimax tours. I will continue on next to do a Feffoid run and then an Esto/Allo run.

Not sure I will be able to handle too much more than that for today.

So I expect to cycle at least 1,500 PED today in total only.

If there is any feedback on recent changes to the starter pack (Now @ 25 PED worth) or any suggestions of items to giveaway as part of the grand prize (eg. Vehicle type), then I would love to hear from you

Take Care and Good Luck in Entropia,
Viper

Can't Believe It

after reading up on what you are doing in full detail. I still can't believe the rewards your handing out. man if this world ever goes down, I know who to look for to survive cause surely I don't think our presidents/primeminsters or dictators would help in the same manner.

Wish the world had more blokes and a team like yours. amazing.

Viper. I want to jsut mine in this game. Is it possible or do i also need to take on another prof to go hand in hand e.g. hunting/mining..

cheers bud.

 

[happy_hipster]

Sounds good to me

Typically, i offer -5MU on FOMA, so this would be no stretch. Looking primarily for the ores/enmatters used in making amps, been doing well at them and would like to continue to skill. Also have been doing the Mobile TT thing for awhile, and have a few contacts for such. I have limited TT potential tho, since I am a non depositer and therefore pour all my ped into amps atm. Tem amps is a good night, right?

peace,
hip

Hey Mate!

Yes you can just mine, however most areas which are good to mine in are guarded wit mobs, so it is best to get some skills up in hunting also. A good mentor should be able to help more out with advise on this.

Unfortunately doing this task will take most of my time so I am unlikely to mentor for this year.

Feel free to PM if you have any specific questions though, I am more than willing to answer to the best of my ability what I can as time allows

Take Care,
Viper
