You mad Plato?

Oh yeah, finally a new and exciting update that increases fun tremendously! Totally in line with the „Work as manager“ (remember: „more stuff, more profit, more fun“ or however this was labelled).
Way to go lad! Bringing back the fun sounds great, doesn’t it? Well lets have a look there (after some fudging with the url, since Platos link was a fail and led to nowhere).
Okay. At least Gold was changed 1:1, looks like a good start. But DEM 1:1 to USD? WTF?! And look at the most fun part, where USD get converted in USD.
Next Stopp, the MM. Obviously, the Dollar has been devaluated (who would have guessed it!). There are many offers, but whenever I want to accept one, the nice error message tells me that there was no offer… totally fun, isn’t it?
Oh and by the way, Since currencies are fixed now, I can’t even buy/sell other currencies. Not only goes there a great margin of profit by exchanging currencies, there goes the POSSIBILITY TO START A RW ANYWHERE OUTSIDE THE US.
Also, I wonder – since there is no inter-currency exchange, these fixed rates mean:
- Whenever you export to another nation (where the bot buys strong) you get USD. This means, from now on the dollar will be devaluated instead of the country with the bot on.
- Even more fun: The exchange rate suggests that you get 1.6 Dollars for every Dollar you earn on the market place. Hilarious!
Hooray!

I think that was just the initial conversion of your money.
From now on there is just one currency value.
With that in mind, this entire article makes little sense at all.

I have several export licenses and I have not been able to post an offer in any foreign markets. Import tax policies and trade embargoes are officially redundant, like tits on a bull.
Also, I have not been able to buy gold from the money market with my USD, I guess they want you to buy it with your RL cash.
I think admin has shit the bed on this one.
I have been able to place offers on foreign markets with no issues at all Addy.

Currency is converted into your citizen currency, afaik. So when selling on a different market, it will appear in their currency, but you'll get payed in USD. I guess USD will be converted into the country currency if you change citizenship.
Gold market is now heaven for bots.... 🙁
Plato makes the eworld a better place.
So now I can't make large amounts of money off of the gold market? damn
Dang dude, that's alot of gold, wana share? 😃
you can start a resistance war in another country by using 1000 USD no longer have to convert to their currency to start the resistance war
Free market is finally dead in eRepublik
