Your Excellence, Thank you for your words, but im just a Baron, not an Earl :-) That is a much higher honour :-)

Lord James: If you want to part with the Army under your command, i can take it upon my expenses, if it comes with its associated haw, of course, and if HM approves that.

Besides, i was going to order some shares from the Noble's Palace. If you hold some and want to sell, them, i can purchase those. Im eager to help any Noble member that is in need, just let me know.

Regards,
Lord Paulson, Esq.

Dear Lord James,

From 1520 the game will progress 1 year/1 day. From then on, your daily income/expenditure report will be:

+ 1,875,000 Labor pool (500%)
- 2,530,000 Army upkeep
+ 2,540,000 Value of new stone generation
-----------------------------------------------
+ 1,885,000. So it is only negative because of the overdraft.

It is not possible to cut support to the army, because it was part of the deal for gaining the large Haw. Developing the haw is one possibility to gain profits from the Services pool.

Another one is updating/building a new residence of at least 200 sqm, to unlock the promotion to Earl and increase the Labor pool dividend to 750% for about 1,000,000 extra income.

Your current townhouse in located in the center. The location is very coveted and no doubt 400 million can be realized if you sell it. By building the new one in a less prestigious location, you increase level + gain cash, but lose prestige. It is a tradeoff.

Selling your Town Hall stocks nets you 39 million extra. Financially, Town Hall has not been a huge success but it is an esteemed building with lots of treasures.

All deposits go via the Bishop (David) and Lord saddam directly, so I am not anymore in the loop for deposits.

In summary, your Lordship's finances are not at all bad. But they do require attention every once in a while. It is a lack of admin resources that this report is now public; we know that it should have sent in PM a week ago, that would have been the appropriate service from our end, which we unfortunately did not have resources for at hand.

I notice that my character has built up a large deficit, however there isn't an easy way to reconcile his income and expenses, I did deposit more moneros but I'm not sure if they have shown up. There is also the matter of the army, my loan to Zechariah, and my shares and bonds. I am currently liquidating some of my stone to Luigi but I'm not sure if I should cut down on my support for the army as well?

It is my pleasure and kronicblazer's to announce that the Knights of the Temple, more commonly known as "the Templars", will take care of security in and around the casino. Templars will have an obvious but discreet presence so that no luck winner will ever have to feel in danger. The security service will extend to conciergerie and escorting/bodyguarding services.

My monks have significantly updated the Nobility page on Codex Cryptonica.

3. How would you like to conduct your shopping?
The usual shopping, I do in the store of The Kronic Hotel, since I reside there(convenience).  If the products are not there and I need it, I will go further out to the Hungus megamall in the southeast Village.

I find it extremely interesting too although i just cant start reading! Too many info! I am waiting for the online version and really you guys should make a video tutorial or something!

I am a man of little needs, as terrestrial belonging departs me from the True Meaning of life. When needed, I prefer to go to the further regions - not for any price considerations, but because this is the best way for me to meet the bulk of ordinary citizens in their everyday life.

I am humbled by the appointment His Majesty is granting the servitor of God. My giving away is nothing compared to the bestowal you are honouring me. I will do my best to further encourage piety and good deeds among our fellow citizen and newcomers alike. This present of moneretoj and gold by our newes Earl will be put to good use in this exact manner. Earl Paulson, it is my pleasure to welcome you such a namong those of noble blood, and noble mind.

Lord Saddam bids 1 @ 70.

                                                                                     OPENING NOTICE OF CASINO CRYPTONIGHT

The Casino CryptoNight has officially opened in the prestigious center of the city, beside the Grand Hotel.  Some of you may have noticed the long time it took to get the casino in operation after it was built.  This was because we took the time to make sure everything is perfect like choosing the best staff that would provide our customers with the greatest service and experience. 

Whether it is relaxing after work or enjoying your weekend, come by the Casino for some excitement.
There are many fun games including Blackjack, Bacarrat, Craps, Sic Bo, Pai Gow, Poker and more.  Two high limit rooms for the high rollers and one room for the poker lovers out there. 

$$$$ Restaurant
Food is amazing. Customers can relax and enjoy their meal in one of the two open-air garden restaurants outside.  Take your time to enjoy the nice scenery(or cocktail waitresses) while waiting for your food.  For those of you eager to get back on the tables or prefer not to be outside, they can get a faster meal(quality is the same) in the indoor bar and dining area.  Cocktail waitresses will bring drinks to players on the tables(sorry no food), so you can enjoy playing with minimal interruptions.  We make sure our food and service is amazing so that our players can enjoy good their meal without leaving the Casino, but that does not stop anyone from dropping by the Casino just for the restaurant. 

Make sure to pay a visit to Casino CryptoNight and see what the buzz around town is all about.  The casino was voted first place in an architectural competition by the residents, and His Majesty has donated a prime piece of land in order to have the casino in the best possible location.  Don't miss out!


**Don't forget to give us your opinion when you visit the casino.  We care a lot about how you think and take suggestions for improvements seriously.**

Congratulations to the new promotions.
Please consider the invitation to enjoy membership and share ownership of the Noble Palace commensurate with your new stature.

The establishment can also provide luxurious accommodations (%190 lux) while your own city palaces are upgraded.

I believe the builders would prefer to stay in the east where the most of the building is happening at the moment.
1. The Village
2. New East - Culture Square
3. Center
4. King's Park
5. Jousting Ground

2. As yourself, which is now your favorite place to eat (select 1 or more, your votepower will be divided accordingly):

It seems none of my own taverns made it in this round, perhaps because they serve mostly $$-food. And since being promoted to a baroness I made my new quarters a little east of the old center, I will make my restaurant picks from the east side this week. I would visit:

The new Bank $$$$ for food (well the building is magnificent)
The Theatre bar $$$$$ for drinks (it is a fancy place for a night out enjoying the culture)
The Casino CryptoNight $$$$ (it is nice to nibble on some food while trying to wipe out the black jack table)

3. How would you like to conduct your shopping?

I have a few of my own places for groceries, in the same building with Mama´s Kitchen -Tavern, and on the west side of the Village Square. For fancier things I prefer to visit the brand new Hungus Towers east side of village square.

Your gracious gifts have now been delivered as requested.
Congratulations on your promotion!
