Department Store is Open for Business!

As consumable progress moves along, the Department Store is once again open and active on the market, with all manner of items up for sale, from staple consumables to precious stones.

With this occasion, DeptStore™ in collaboration with The Crown™ bring to you new rewards for advancing as a character. This year and the next's (1679, 1680) rewards are as follows:

Starting with LV 3 (Beginner), as usual, each character receives a wonderful Distillery Equipment, that commoners may use to produce their very own homebrew.

At LV4 (Novice), also as you've been accustomed, citizens receive a 3CKG Collectible Coin to show gratitude for being citizens of our town.

Those who've shown loyalty and expertise by reaching LV5 (Expert) will be granted a share in our very own brewery which comes with an yearly supply of 60 liters of beer, that should be enough for 1 beer a week if you account for spoilage, or 8.5L a day if you want to power through it in a week. To each their own. The brewery is currently being refurbished to meet industry standards and will go live as soon as all details are finalized, hopefully by the end of the year.

For the following levels, as part of the kingdom's desire to keep scholars, academics, wizards and the like happy and sane for as long as possible, LV 6 (Master) and LV 8 (Doctor) receive a bottle of extraordinarily exquisite cognac, meant for only the most special occasions: from 1610 and the 16th century, respectively, while those who accomplish in the more arcane disciplines, LV 7 (Wizard) and LV 9 (Great Wizard) are rewarded with 1(one) and 2(two) wonderous Elixirs of Life and Happiness each so they may taste the products of their skills, and perhaps develop new such solutions for the good of the Kingdom.

After so many years of dedication to the kingdom and great accomplishments, it is only natural that an esteemed few would be granted the elevation from mere commoner to the noble class, to LV 10 (Knight), along with a knighthood and entry in the Order of Consumables. To commemorate this event, His Majesty Crichton will personally provide a medal crafted especially for this purpose during the knighting ceremony.

With further involvement and loyalty, at LV 11 (Baronet) you will be awarded a baronetcy to accompany the rank and title.

Further growth and success through the noble ranks up to LV 13 (Viscount) will be accompanied by matching rewards fit for one of such rank. Special treatment will be provided for establishing a suitable reward, based on the noble's wants, ranging from real estate to jewelry to carriages or stocks. You've not only earned, but also demonstrated the right to direct your own future, so your reward will follow suit.

With all of that being outlined, production is underway and with that also comes spoilage. We wish to remind you that December (tomorrow) marks the point when mead, vegetables, salmon, and foie gras all spoil in their entirety.

You still have 30 hours in which you have a chance of promoting to the next level by taking part in the Health Challenge consumable game, so we suggest you do your best to reach the top and consume what you need before they spoil.

We wish you great success and happy consuming,
The DeptStore™ Management

WooHoo, the bounty for exchange listing is growing, I prefer another option myself (list 'M'), but CKG is better than nothing!

If CKG asset on exchange is successful there could be other assets listed too, good to see the community trying things.

NXT is a good asset platform.

Dear Karl Hungus, Duke of OZ,

Sadly I am no longer in Crypto Kingdom, otherwise I might've worked on your effort for the Gringotts (with a quick glance it sounded interesting). However, I only now pop by to BCT randomly more seldom than perhaps once a week to see if there's anything in the posts that concerns me.
That being said, my genuine respects to you, and best wishes and blessings to your health. I hope the situation will stabilize. If it will not, I wish that you will be surrounded by your loved ones. We will all once take that journey on that strange and unknown path, but I hope each of us can depart surrounded by those close to us, with no regrets.




Kind wishes,
ex-Prince of Petrichor, Lingering Ghost of CK, Syksy Syyskuu

Good decision KH, that's a pretty juicy bounty

You guys are right, nobody is interested in managing this depository.

Gringotts depository will not be opening.

Gringotts will concentrate exclusively on market making.



I add 6:E chapelry to HMC's bounty, it cost ~1100 XMR back in the day, get CKG listed on a reputable exchange and become a large land holder in the Game.

Silk and Poppy (H: -5, CUL 75, WIS 1) added to IC Shop https://cryptokingdom.me/marketplace/ic-shop

Also, feel free to suggest new items for IC Shop based on Silk Road theme.

Game will start Monday with any player vacancies filled in by drones. After Monday, there will be a 100mil entrance fee that will be added to the bag of M.

I agree with @bv68bot, time to shelve the depository idea and fall in behind getting a CK asset listed on an exchange. I personally think 'M' is better than 'CKG', but ANY asset listed on an exchange will be better than a rebooted depository.

@Karl Hungus, I respect your candour, good luck with your health!

I'll give you my opinion, I've been following Crypto Kingdom for sometime now, and have always planned to invest when an exchange traded token became available. I always saw the depo saddam operated as an interim solution for deposits/withdrawals while the exchange token was being organised, so IMO I think you trying to launch another depository is an inferior option, the better option is to back HMC's bounty for getting CKG listed on a reputable exchange.

Even a reliable escrow becomes a single point of failure in the minds of investors, if you get CKG listed on polo or bittrex the outcome is much better for security, usability and speculation, so it'll attract new players and speculators, plus it lets people convert ALL alt coins into the traded CK asset, not just btc and xmr. Just my 2 cents

So far I haven't received any responses to my thread advertising for an escrow for Gringotts depository.

I'm considering how best to proceed from here, I can setup BTC & XMR deposit wallets myself, but service levels will be basic at best, and security of funds will be a MAJOR issue. I've been hacked multiple times in the last 5 years, plus my health is very poor (2x heart attacks + minor stroke since CK commenced in 2014), so please be aware of this if you decide to send me funds. If I die or get hacked you will lose your money.

The end point for Gringotts will ideally have it acting as an automated neutral market maker in whatever asset(s) ends up being the entry/exit points for the Game (a substitute for the Coinshop).

If that asset ends up being CKG, or another deposit share like BO, then Gringotts will provide liquidity in those markets.

My goal is simple - to help re-connect CK with the larger crypto economy - and I will try and support any efforts in that direction.

NEW NPC

These new NPC will be added to take on production.



BAKER: BRE



BUTCHER: MEAT

Production values have yet to be determined, but they will be approximate and based on a !d roll each year. Also, BUT will start producing DOM, Initially 1 bottle +LV, but BUTs will not be promoted and BUT-1 will be the only one produced by TOWN as SPOIL goes into effect.

400 gold coins and a house were given to lotraffle as prizes by TOWN. RWC will also be giving some shares and weapons.

I have 2 small ships available for rent if any of the expeditions need ships. Please PM for a deal.

I would buy CKG if it was traded on poloniex, bittrex or c-cex exchanges, they are trusted exchanges.

+1
Concentrate resources and effort on getting CKG listed on an exchange, if HMC/KING is in favour and prepared to pay a bounty to see it happen it's the way to go, depository shares require committed escrow which isn't available anyway.

I really want to invest in CK, and would be happy to buy CKG on an exchange.

There's nothing wrong with having both depo shares AND CKG traded on external exchanges at the same time, the thing is to get any on/off ramp up and running before people lose interest in CK all together.

Depo shares maybe forever tainted by risto's actions, so a blockchain asset is probably more acceptable now IMO, and CKG comes with a bounty that doesn't require taxing people, or changing any rules, so it looks the best candidate.

Yes, you just have to look at eth and bitcoin prices to see the price effect on the 'ramp tokens' for ICO and alt coin markets generally, so if HMC's CKG bounty is successful you'd expect the price of CKG would benefit, but I'd argue there's less distortion if that valuation effect travelled through the game currency M.

I do concede that a CKG blockchain asset traded on a reputable exchange might make depo shares redundant, so if HMC's bounty is successful it would be unambiguously better than the current situation.

Your plan might be a good one, but not likely to succeed if a vote is required, too many vested interests now. A better option is using CKG as the on/off ramp and doing away with depo shares entirely.

That's two, tombot and kidjim--we have two more free spots open.

I ask the CKG holders to consider having a vote on my plan below:

- revalue 'M' down to 1Billion
- change the name to 'CK dollars'
- take a snapshot of balances
- create the blockchain genesis block
- destroy old markka balances
- setup interface between CK and blockchain
- open deposits/withdrawals back into CK for 'CK dollars'
- list 'CK dollars' on a regular exchange

If the vote was successful, then I would try and raise a bounty from donations (suggest a small tax on all M balances), but as this is a major structural change to the game, it can't be done independently by way of a private bounty, like HMC's CKG/blockchain proposal.

I'm not looking for an argument, more trying to offer suggestions for a constructive debate on how to save CK. If' it's possible, have a vote.
