Money for Old Rope-- What's the Story?

Want some easy emoney? Of course you do. So why not write an article?

As you may have noticed, our CP is pretty keen on keeping people active and informed through the media. So Rusty D would like to make sure you’re aware of his cash and gold for articles scheme-- which we call the “Money for Old Rope” initiative.

How does this work? Write an article that is worthwhile or informative, as judged by Rusty D (well, he’s paying for it)… Publish it in your newspaper, and PM the url to Rusty D. That’s it. If your article is deemed worthwhile, he will send you 1 gold, plus 10 cc per vote (that is 100 cc for 10 votes)!

In addition, he will pay the tax for any pro-eAustralian article published in a foreign newspaper. Clearly the scheme does not apply to articles from government sources, or certain members of the Cabinet would get soooooo rich…



If an article just seems beyond you, there are still ways to get free stuff from what you write. Pr3zzy is asking for 50 eTips; PM him with suggestions for improving your game, and he will pay 10 cc each for those he includes. Also, there is JackTrout’s Suggestion Box—PM me with a question or story idea, and if I use it in an article, I will send you 25 Q4 food.

The bottom line here is it pays to be involved. Read the papers, write the papers, tell us your good ideas and jokes and experiences in the game… We will all benefit!
