Topic 1074

I've been thinking of all the contest going on in CL. Like the recent house contest, or things like the Dun'islar, Newbielympics, Volympics. Or even the Mystic Race I held. They are all very cool. But I thought, how can I make a constest that would really dazzle me. Really interest the hell out of me. And I think I've came up with the pretty damn close contest. I like to call it:





Bribe Neige the Most Contest.



It's super simple, there's one prize, the size of it will depend on the amount of coins the contest can generate, plus a 1000 coin that I will kick in at the beginning.

And how you win, how you win that prize is , again, simple, just bribe me. Who ever bribes me(Neige) the most wins everything, expect the money they themselves placed. I off course, I won't tell the highest bribe.. well unless you get closed to it and I drop a little hint like "a bit more would help you know."



For example how it would work:



Joe asks, "Heya Neige, how it's going?"

Neige says, "It's going fine, Joe."

Joe says, "This is a little something something. For the kids you know."

Joe hands you 100 coins.

Neige says, "I got ya. This is going to really help out."



But then Bob comes into the scene and he goes.



Bob says, "Hey Neige, I heard you got some action going on."

Neige says, "Sure there's always something going on."

Bob says, "I want in."

Bob hands you 80 coins.

Neige says, "Thanks Bob.. but you're going to do a little bit more."

Bob says, "I got ya."

Bob hands you 40 coins.

Neige says, "Thanks Bob, I'll keep my eyes out for you."



So, thus the deadline happens. No more bribes come in and Bob wins the 100c (+the 1k start up) and Neige gets to keep Bob's bribe.


Sorry for not pushing the contest as much as I should.
But a quick update; prize money now at over 2.5k! How would you dare miss out on such a sweet offer!

I know! This has Malkor written all over it.



Sniff.



I'm so damn proud of you, Neige. This is a master stroke.

Does being allowed to live count as a bribe?

It might be. But I'd really prefer physical goods. Like coins! Weapons! Shinny stuff.

Greetings Subjects,



I'm proud to announce that Neige has been appointed official Ambassador to Puddleby from the Great Nation of New Ghorak (still claiming sovereignty over the totality of the known universe). He's also been awarded citizenship, making him the fourth legal citizen of New Ghorak and allowing him full respiratory privileges. As for the rest of you, stop breathing all our air.



This position comes with the right to tax every citizen of Puddleby in whatever manner the Ambassador sees fit, as well as a whole host of construction and permit related embezzlement opportunities. (Puddlebean taxation rights allocated to the GNoNG by unilateral amendment to the GNoNG / Lakeania-Puddleby alliance of Spring, 534).



Since all funds that could potentially be used to bribe the Ambassador can now instead be taken by the Ambassador through unilateral declaration, I submit that all bribes thus far received are in fact made by the Great Nation of New Ghorak on behalf of its Dictator for Life and First Citizen, the Honorable Lord Skirwan. Thus it seems clear that Skirwan is the winner.



Thank you.



Signed,



Skirwan

While I humbly accepts the Ambassador position for the Great Nation of New Ghorak. And I will work to represent this beautiful and far away country in a fair and enlightening way to all it's subject.



I will cook my own books. Thank you!

Greetings Subjects,



In other news, Sareth has just been appointed the Great Nation of New Ghorak's official minister of puns. He will be in charge of wordplay, homonyms, onomatopoeia, sleight-of-word, and general lingual tomfoolery. Please bow to his authority on all such matters.



Sareth, see me or Neige in town to pick up your official New Ghorak breathing permit.



Signed,



By The Benevolence of Mai and The Great Epnguin,



Dictator For Life And First Citizen,



Skirwan
