My mistake then.
There was nothing available in the shops when I joined the Watch, so I didn't pay all that much attention to them anyway back then, other than my initial reaction when gifted with some when I joined the Watch.

Do you post on either Mallorys or Gravin Threndor Es?

Also, my own avatar only lists the appropriate currency for the forum I'm in. So right now, I only see my WGDs.

But they are all listed in my profile properly.

Hey Sea! Where do you post in Gravin Threndor?

~*~edit~*~

...if you don't post in Gravin Threndor, I'll trade you dollar for dollar some WGDs for your HPs...

I think if you post in the Writers Circle, you should get something cool, like a quill icon...

Bah! :roll:

Well...I have too much going on right now to really think about this too much. So I wipe my hands clean of it!

(I still think making a system more complex from the git-go is just asking for problems, abuse and people getting upset.)

Good luck, though! :biggrin: -jay

Well, since Mallorys is for games, you should earn tokens (or tickets), which can be traded in for cheap plastic novelties. On the other hand, since Mallorys is ruled by the GCES, everything could be in creds. But I think tokens works better. Something with a UMC flair maybe. Ore tokens, or UMC tokens, or Dragon Tokens. Or maybe just plain tokens. Maybe you can change them in for BR.

For Gravin Threndor, how about Experience Points?

I like the idea of tokens... trading tokens for cheap plastic versions of the items in other stores. 10,000 tokens for a plastic Arch of Time, anyone?

Or we could use checkers - as a nod to Mordant's Need?

I concur with Jay.

But as long as we just have fun and not get too worked up over imaginary money, then sure, let the good times roll.

I guess it may depend on how smoothly Vain implements the new system. Though I'll say right now, I wouldn't mind witnessing a "global" KW currency meltdown. A market crash, KW-style.

Yes, I can picture a troubled High Lord Jay gazing into the future and seeing the sight of the KW nouveau riche, deprived all over again, storming the gates of the Old Wealth. Thus, he prepares seven great Wards to store all the knowledge of the Heh-Lore, to ensure that all is not lost in the event of his realm collapsing into ruin.

Another reset might take away any faith in the system, two at the most. I would recommend against that unless we're absolutely sure all the needed mechanisms are in place.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
