[DoI] Are you the Next Warren Buffet?
USA Department of the Interior
DEPT OF THE INTERIOR UPDATE...
While wandering around the streets of eRep, I was approached by a man in a wonderfully colored pinstripe suit. ‘My name is Indexinfinity’, he said. ‘And I have a idea to make your life better and more enjoyable. I would like to be a Deputy in the Department of the Interior so that I could share this idea with the entire eUS.’ After a long conversation with Index, I’m glad to have him as part of our team.
Indexinfinity, a member of the Feds, brings strength to the department having served many party and government positions over the time he has played the game. Currently he is the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, as well as a congressman representing the Federalist Party. His past accomplishments include serving as DoI Sec., a multiple term congressman, Federalist Party Vice President, FedEx Director, S.H.I.E.L.D. Regiment Captain, Deputy of Defense, Deputy of Human Services and Member of Federalist Tech Division.

Are you ready to be a part of eWall Street?
So far the Vortex has given out almost 12000 USD. Are you interested in cashing in and being part of our mob?
1. The game will start when the vortex sucks up the first contestant
2. This player will be awarded a prize, which will start at 5 USD
3. The player will have 60 seconds from the time of selection to decide to
A.) keep the prize, or
B.) throw the prize back
4. If the player throws the prize back, the vortex will suck up another random player who will be awarded a larger prize and again given 60 seconds to decide to keep or return.
5. Each player is eligible to be chosen every time, even if they already threw a prize back.
6. If a player chooses to keep a prize the vortex will implode and end the game unless a player in the room donates to match the prize kept.
Notes: Once you keep a prize you are ineligible to receive another, idle players will be given one chance to be picked and respond. If the timer runs out and you remain idle you will be removed.
We look forward to seeing all eUS citizens in #Vortex on Monday night at 1800 erep for your chance at riding the storm.
Stack the Wall is a program, which gives players gold for commenting on a daily shout in your MU feed made by one of our fine staff. These comments happen once a day for 7 days!
We currently do not have a requirement for Military Unit eligibility, but we will only do this for Military Units that show they have an active young player membership. The previously visited ones have programs in place for new members. Please before you ask to sign up ensure you have an active newer player base, due to the limitations on player level. If all your members are above level 30 this program is not for you. We want this to benefit the most new players possible, while also promoting the military units who are there to support them.
To participate fill out sign up form: http://tinyurl.com/STW-SignUp

Hello Buffalo.... Where is Warren?
Good stuff DoI!

INSURGIO~
Love it, can't wait to get started.
Good idea and great opportunity for new citizens.
"When buying, you will be pmed the amount of money you need to send in order to buy your desired stocks."
Why not keep it public? It seems kind of peculiar to keep it hidden until someone PMs and is sure to make power abuse easy as forging the prices or giving benefits to certain players almost inevitable.
Maybe I'm wrong, though...
First of all, this is the Department of Interior, trust is less of an issue. Secondly, it's not done through pm's, it's done through google docs, so there are logs of all money sent and received. The pming will most likely not stay, but was mainly there just to ensure that the correct amount of money is sent.
Thanks for the information.
Then again, it WAS stated that it'll be through PMing and nowhere it is mentioned that google docs would be used, so you could understand the concern. It would be more appealing if this was explained as well.
It's true that the DoI is trustworthy in comparison to a regular, unknown person offering his service, for example. However, this doesn't mean we should follow blindly.
It was mostly due to the fact ;
"...which guarantees that your money will be it will have oversight from the department and transparency." followed by no indication for transparency at all and use of vage private messagings by unknown people in an unknown system.
Oof, brutal writing error. Thanks for the catch, I will document how it's secure in our first market article on Monday.
interesting ideas
