Zech's investment picks 1618So much is happening with the game, and the progress is very gradual and contained. Town is in good financial shape; gamemaster, admins, and dev are committed and well-resourced. New players are trickling in with 14 new accounts opened in the last 2 weeks. And this is before we have made any attempt to market the game since the "last touches" are still ongoing.
CON is a clear winner as the confidence increases. It will pay fixed XMR dividends as long as the game exists, and this is looking very good now. Since it is denominated in XMR, you get the appreciation of XMR/other_currency fully to your pocket as well!
NPC are in the process of being phased out but they are powerhouses of especially CUL, IC and SCI for their owners until they die (5% individual chance per year). Their yield data is public in the thread and in the ancient google DB. Shrewd market makers can make a buck here.
Old Town land Much is being owned by unclaimed characters (in contrast to rather little gold being owned by them - land was cheap or free when these guys were active). After claims deadline in 2016-1-17, this land will come to market and price might be pressured, presenting an opportunity.
Ancient items and tokens There have not yet been much markets for these, but it's somewhat evident to my trained mind that antiques will be a hit after a few thousand 10k players, as there are so few available, so accumulation from estate sales will be rewarding.
New chapelries I can't believe there are so many still for sale at 1,000 mil; it's as if people did not realize the next ring is double the distance from Old Town and resultantly worse in every way and costs the same??
B.22 On both sides of this one, land is very coveted, so it is just logical that this one is not. False
By participating in the weekly challenges, approx 100 sqm of very fine land is yours (per share), and that can be got for the cost of the effort almost...
CAN So many visions of an epic future challenge related to CAN have been received that it is for sure that a steady accumulation will pay off. 10,000 CAN will come to market each day. Don't be left out when some day CAN costs its weight in gold (
editor's note: situation in 2015).
CKG Especially for new players who don't yet have it: More than half of the value of the game is in CKG and for a good reason - it is indestructible, untamperable, shiny, fungible, pays dividends, gives voting rights and appreciates in value (historically). A healthy chunk of gold belongs to every portfolio.
