I hope that one day (or night) this newspaper will have more subscribers than kyle321n.

Before we begin with the economic report, I would like to begin by reminding everyone about the Ministry of Fun’s “No-Shave November” beard contest. Men, start growing your face out now. Register with the Green River Corporation by sending 10 NZD before the 15th of the month. Submit a photograph of your hairy face, with a computer screen in the background logged in to your eRepublik account, before the committee declares a winner on Saturday, Dec 4. The man with the best beard will receive a cash prize; the more people enter, the higher the prize.



I thought it would be fun to provide some analysis of the Kiwi economy. I plan to release an update each week. I did this a long time ago when I first started in the eUSA and it seems like a pretty easy way to keep my paper from drying up. I decided to exclude the hospitals and defense systems markets because normal people can't buy them anyway. The numbers in parentheses indicate the change from last week. The government is working on lowering the peg (gold price for currency) and so the numbers may be a little unusual this week. Additionally, the Admin cut the amount of wellness given by a house in half, so that price will show a large jump.

Because nobody really knows the formulas for military damage based on weapon quality yet, it would be impossible for me to do a "cost per damage" analysis of the weapons market. Once Admin announces these formulas, or we figure it out for ourselves, I will include it.
