Chapter 1: My First Million
This story begins when developers still had imagination. Small company in Sweden in 2011 announced that it will introduce a groundbreaking Citizenship System to Planet Calypso. Citizens will also receive a share in the Planet Partner gross revenue of Calypso, paid weekly.
Anyway, I believed everything MA said, every roadmap they had was dream come true and started depositing and buying CLDs month after month for 13-14 years. Even when they converted the used CLD to CLDX, I still bought the more expensive CLDs with the hope to get my hands on that peace of land they promised in 2011 and released on June 15 2015, the first stage of the Long awaited CLD Estate System became available on Planet Calypso.
Chapter 2: The Deal
In 2023 Calypso Land Deeds have been migrated to the Entropia Exchange. Avatars who held Calypso Land Deed items (not including Calypso Land Deed (X) items) have received one Calypso Land Plot token per deed held, for future use in the Land Plot system. And in 2026 MindArk releases more plots so people can buy them with the remaining Calypso Land Plot tokens. And there is new cooking profession to make plots more useful for the players.
I always wanted to have at least 2 land plots so I can do every profession there is. “Each building comes with a certain number of construction points that you can allocate to construct different kinds of components. There are ‘building’, ‘gardening’, ‘utility’ and ‘industry’ points. The number of construction points varies depending on the size and cost of the building.” The rumors were factories will be possible and even malls on the biggest plots.
On 22 of May 2026 we made a deal for 264 Calypso Land Plot tokens for 26400 peds. 100 ped per token. That was the market price. I sold the other half of my tokens for 100 ped per token and got 2 land plots for me. He doesn’t have all 26400, so we make a deal for 10k peds now and 16400 peds after a week. And I get as collateral 2 limited female armor sets Earth Shock Trooper. Now this is a deal I normally wont do, but he is streaming together with Socrates, interviewing top 10 players in the game, doing official MindArk giveaways, he has official invite code link for Entropia Universe, playing for 8 hours a day, opening thousand of strongboxes. What can go wrong right. You can trust him.
But 7 days become 14 then 21 then 28 then 39. I am logged in Discord, Twitch and the game waiting and flying planet to planet with that armor. Last message was from 27 June that we will fix it this Monday. Monday passed and still nothing. And for that last message he send me a friend request on Twitch that means he removed me as a friend before the deal is over.
He probably have stuff in RL that’s why I waited so long, but after 39 days it start to look like a classic.
And I think he want to give me a small plot. So do I take the small plot, or beg for a big plot, or demand the original deal? Do I make a support case? You think support can help with that?
Chapter 3: Not so happy ending
So, yesterday I receive a message on Discord "I’ll give you a 40x 20 which is 108 plot tokens . That’s 10,800 then I’ll give you the difference in Ped . That’s what I can do .
That leaves 16,400 - 10,800 =5,600"
Not optimal but I am tired of waiting and I agree. I am on Next Island, I forgot armor on Toulan jumping from planet to planet. I fly to Toulan and then to Calypso to trade. I stand few hours yesterday and 6 hours today and we finally meat to trade. I am thinking this will be happy ending for the story.
But no. He start offering me limited amps, swords, boxes and I see 2k peds in the window instead of my 16400 peds or even 5600. At that point loosing 16k or 14k minus what MU I can get is about the same. So I tell him I will try my luck with support. And probably the community manager and the marketing director. Can’t be good marketing.
