The willingness of people to invest their more or less hard earned money in vastly inflated wild ideas on Bitcoin stock exchanges continually blows my mind.

Stick around, you're in the right place.

The good news being that we've just had a test yesterday on a 30 Mb ~65 sq Km map, with terrain splattering and grass meshes on. The server couldn't care less, a 1 GB RAM / ancient video card client had minor hick-ups (1second-ish lag every minute or so).

Things be comin' right along.

Great news, loving the progress. MP also promised me secret zones and weps!

There's a rules etc release scheduled for sometime next month. More details on this sort of stuff then.

No, I mean there is nothing currently available, but there are people who would use such a thing if it existed. It is a 'potential market'.

So if there is nothing there then the divisor is 0. The market is what the market is, not what the market could be.

I guess that depends on if you are looking at past figures or future projections.

I would say there is some sort of potential market for bitcoin games, so the divisor here is non-zero.

What exactly do you have in mind, the Dragon Tale thing? It's kinda dead/abandoned from what I've seen last.

So am I reading this correctly?

$800,000 has been invested in a company that has no business, assets or firm plans, other than a 'desire' to get involved in Bitcoin games........

You are reading this wrongly. 8,799.0657479 BTC were invested in MP's game venture. It's not "a" company, and dollars aren't involved. Furthermore, the corp does have assets: 8,799.0657479 BTC, in cash, and it does have plans, as discussed in the OP.

Apparently "you are reading this wrongly" was not actually accurate. Should have said "every single thing you think is wrong".

To help piss you off further: 38k BTC were invested in S.MPOE too.

Now, you were saying?

LOL. PR just got trolled hard, or somebody stupid just walked into a good drubbing. Sometimes it is hard to tell about sarcasm on the internet?


Right now they have 0%, which will continue until they release something.

Indeed. Of the 10bn dollar video game market (significantly larger than the movie market, for that matter), 0%. Of the 0 BTC video game market, an unspecified % (as the result of dividing zero by zero is undefined).

I would say there is some sort of potential market for bitcoin games, so the divisor here is non-zero. So it is more accurate to say you have 0% of the market, which puts you in top place next to all the other people thinking about making bitcoin games. The difference is you visibly have funding, which is one step ahead of anybody else.

Why would that piss me off?

Because bitcoin, or something!

The mistaken assumption is that people resent the fact that MPOE has stacks of BTC. In fact, nobody cares.

Are you fresh off the SA boat?

Proof of work is the most important factor of all  Wink

Well at least he's established proof of talk, right? That also counts.

If it doesn't get delayed for a year or two like BFL  Wink

How much marketshare do you have? 2%? 5%? 10%?
