I think no shares will be left within an hour or two. Any theories on why they sold so quick? I must be missing something
It's because they are both in game and in webshop and are only 10 peds a pop... that's luxury money folks can afford all across the virtual universe. Also, it's an asset that's already complete. Moon on Ark still ain't complete, not by a far shot.
Hopefully Mindark learned from this... One reason Moon Deeds didn't sell out I suspect was because they were all in webshop, not in game as well.
AUD originally were in game in an NPC. Then they got moved to other forms of selling. This sale happened both in game and out so that's a big way to get most money from both already in game ped and out of game cash as well... Hopefully more sales will happen like that to speed up the process. Some just cannot do or do not want to drop more cash in to the game via webshop as they all got money tied up in game already. Others are just the opposite.
Also, people remember CLD days... what the original cost was for CLD originally vs now. Yes, ROI likely won't be at CLD levels, but it will hopefully be somewhere near it.
Still wish Mindark would do something more for those of us that originally bought in to compets than they did, but ah well... live and learn... for some this is a way to hopefully spend on an in game investment that may have better results than that fiasco did... Most of what I invested was mainly already in game. I did do a tiny deposit to get a few more out of webshop too, but this is a better use of in game peds than just having them sit in junk in an apartment no one is buying.
(Probably would have sold off more furniture, etc. if I had thought about it, and they'd made better announcement about when the sale was happening earlier on)
Also doesn't hurt that the advertised the hell out of this as there was a big press release that's all over the internet.
