Originally by: Guru exactly.. you know what it is.. so if you play the game smart then you could make out. I really see nothing wrong as everything is pretty much in the open as far as I can tell. Is it the best investment.?. well probably not even an investment. Its more like buying an expensive scratchoff.. but you know if you scratch it off in the exact right order you increase your chances of winning..lol
I dont know.. I think its cool you can find things going on like this in a online game.. your gonna scare the kind of people off who come up with new and inventive ways to make money...
scamming isn't new, nor overly inventive.
and i'm all for fools and their money being soon parted, hence the free bump.

I dont mean its a new idea.. but its neat that these kind of things are set up in an online game.. regardless if its a risky way to play with your money, its fun..
Whatever floats your boat.. whats foolish in ones eyes makes sense in anothers.. for instance I would happily go to the casino and have some fun at the blackjack table, although many people see that as foolish.. yet while im playing blackjack I am watching people rock climbing on the TV.. I think thats foolish..lol To each his own.. some people enjoy playing games with high stakes.. sometimes I do as well.. depends on what the wallet looks like..lol
Not sure if this is gonna be back up so I can foolishly make my wallet fatter..lol Hopefully the interest gets lowered to make it last a little longer.

Im gald to see intrest in round 3. To tell you the truth, I was a bit turned off by all the complaints and crying that has been said in the forums and also mailed to me. It was just not worth it to me to pay real money to keep the sight up. I had a blast puting this script together and running the game.
But all the requests and questions that have also been sent to me about when round 3 will be under way, I think I'll give it another go. I do go on vacation this weekend. I will start round 3 tuesday or wednesday of next week. I'll bump the thread and spam jita at least 24 hours before it starts.
This will be more long term, % paid will be lowerd as I mentioned earlier. I have the numbers figured but will not reveal them until I get back from my small vacation.
Thanks for all the positive feedback form those who sent it.

So what is all about: If you are not in the first three guy, you can be sure, that you just loose money. If he has a little brain, he enters into the round with his main, and sent himself no money, but write to the site, that he entered with 500 mill, and at the first time when he could he take out all of the money.
So we can consider it a very good scam ;) --

Edited by: Sortiario on 29/04/2007 13:19:04 To scam or not to scam?
I've read the first couple of pages in this thread, and I must say that Ponzi really did a great job when he invented this:
A Ponzi scheme is based upon the fact, that greed overrules sound judgement when it comes to investing your money. When investor A puts 5 million credits into the pool, and extracts 6 million a few days later, he'll probably reinvest, as he sees it is a good investment. When he keeps reinvesting, hoping to earn more and more, and having a higher payout than any alternative, his greed takes over and leaves his rational judgement shattered to the point where he'll keep reinvesting all his returns.
As all investors get payouts (from the other investors), the money flow builds up, and eventually, the owner of the scheme sits with billions and billions of credits at his disposal. Then, one of three things happens:
Originally by: www.wikipedia.org The catch is that at some point one of three things will happen: (a) the promoters will vanish, taking all the investment money (less payouts) with them; (b) the scheme will collapse of its own weight, as investment slows and the promoters start having problems paying out the promised returns (and when they start having problems, the word spreads, and more people start asking for their money); or (c) the scheme is exposed, because when legal authorities begin examining accounting records of the so-called enterprise, they find that much of the "assets" that should exist, do not.
The most hilarious thing is that it works. The OP has clearly stated that it IS a ponzi scheme, and the only way he'll really benefit from it is by doing option a) in above. Why do people attend then? Obviously, they'll keep gambling their money, because they know they'll get their returns, and thus feeding the scheme with investments.
This scam is so perfect, so psychological, that i'll dare not to call it a scam. Manipulation of human needs ftw!
