Re: Time-Waster Flea Market IV

Now we just need a Market Manager to actually do it.

It is a flea market.  You buy and sell things at a flea market.

Re: Time-Waster Flea Market IV

How exactly did one earn wots, not like that would be any use now seeing as we have no market manager and we have no way of knowing who has how many, and so on-- still I'd like to know how to get wots, if they ever become a viable thing again. Honestly I think the reset would be the easiest way to do it, or else it might never truly get done

Re: Time-Waster Flea Market IV

You have approximately 300 wots, earned one at a time with each post you make anywhere on ASWOT.

Re: Time-Waster Flea Market IV

So each post is one WOT? Wow.

I think that a reset might be good, but how would we handle people who had a lot? It would be a shame to make them lose stuff. I guess it would end up with everyone starting over with the same WOTs as their current posts?

Re: Time-Waster Flea Market IV

I'm thinking that a few plans be proposed and the currently active members vote for the one most likely to restart the market.

Re: Time-Waster Flea Market IV

The only thing killing the market is lack of a Market Manager.  The rest is just details.

Re: Time-Waster Flea Market IV

From what I can tell by reading farther back here is that there is no way this is getting revived unless one of two things happens after we manage getting someone willing to work it's system.

A; they go back and relog everything from day one as I have under the RR, or reset from a set point (like the beginning of this thread) and relog from there.

B; we do a full on reset with fresh wots, and everything.  counting the posts made so far as unspent, and undivided per the according people that have made their posts. (i.e. FourLegged gets a starting advantage of 40k wots.

So far I honestly can't see myself working this thread, even if I were the market manager I would only log wots and tax them accordingly, but there is no way I'm taking the title until I've caught the RR records up.  Than I might catch the MM records up if nobody else has made any effort to, but I would not want the position permanently.  I'm only willing to pick up the slack once the keeper, and royal records are all up to date accordingly first.

I don't get the purpose of a market when there isn't anything to actually use the items on (i.e. buying a pellet gun to use in zombie apocalypse, or a rubber duck to use in the ASWOT dungeon) so it's not on my list of important info to update right this minute.

Re: Time-Waster Flea Market IV

If it helps, to my memory, I've never bought or sold anything in the Flea Market.

Re: Time-Waster Flea Market IV

I don't know how much that would help, it would still require an archive check, which would still need to verify that, or if it were reset than it would act like nobody has sold of bought anything.  I can see myself checking the archive for this but we're talking a lot of time between now and when I finish RR updates.

The flea market has been idle for a long time.  We are in no hurry.

That's odd.  You have a significant number of items on the list for sale.

Re: Time-Waster Flea Market IV

It would be so sad to close down this thread.  We need Germ Ant to come back and revive the RP side of ASWOT, which is what drove traffic here at the Market.  Without the RP threads to showcase your goods (bought or sold), the goods here have no meaning.

Re: Time-Waster Flea Market IV

That's actually what I was wondering about this thread in the first place...   That would mean that the festival place has those pins, and chain saws from this thread?
