If you believe this marketing 'hype' you believe anything...
He lost TI remember...A space station is a nice gift.
Especially for MA employee
also…
he is from what? florida?
the servers were down for 2 hrs
so he woke up at 8am and bought it while servers were down?
also, he managed to get 100k USD into PE since last thursday?
I believe that ND actually bought this… And MA have got good buisiness sense, of course this is hype, it works, EVERY SINGLE (SUCCESSFULL) COMPANY in the world uses hype.

Its more than likely that it was a bank transfer, idiot.
You really think that anyone could use a credit card to transfer 100k USD into the game? Without the bank saying: Hmm, what the fuck!?
No. It’ll be a wire transfer, agreed over the phone and with the bank manager present…
MA have been approached by 8 parties - approching MA would be hard to do INGAME wouldnt it.
Do you really think someone who would be willing to invest such a large amount of money into this game would just plop it on his card and buyout in auction without being in direct contact with the company with whom he is effectively going into partnership???
I for one would want to speak to the company to get assurances that I’m not just pissing away $100,000. It seems entirely reasonable that this has been bought out in a manner recognising the massive investment that has just been made.
Well I was in warrants with Never die and Tina, besides him being an great friend
He sold out tons of things for the first TI auction Pre Gold imk2,Regular imk2, shadow sets, I think 1 or 2 mod faps & an PSG just to name an few:).
I still remember him telling me that he sold 45k of minerals back then
Now I keep forgetting I think he is an actor or an DJ.. Lol don’t really remember so he has means to buy it Most likely it was done with an bank transfer
But I am very happy that an long time PE’er bought it
PS: after losing that TI action he’s been saving since then for an really good land

very very Naive, all of you im afraid.
No need to get personal..shame some of you did :rolleyes:
If you honestly believe ND wired 100k us$ to MA and he was not already predestined to ‘win’ this auction then again, very naive of you all.
If its all legit (which imo its not) then congrats to ND for a wise ‘investment’
I wont go into the worries from other PE player who did actually ‘invest’ money into PE to buy other mentioned Land (island)…

I understand where your coming from with these statements and I’d be surprised if he payed the full 100k but still I’m sure it wasnt a gift maybe he got a little ‘frendly’ discount - either way I feel happy its gone to a known trusted player and not some ‘investment’ co. or hell worst case senario would have been to some advertising co.
wether he saved for it, inserted, wired the money who care whats the prob GRATZ to him somebody was gonna buy it sooner or later jeees i know if i had the money i would have done :dunce:
You’ll never beat out the Fanboys. They cant stand ANY bad talk about their PE addictions Give them a few weeks after station opens…then they’ll chime in with the “I so disappointed” posts. Or maybe not…but dont you dare talk bad about PE.
Thats the only reason I never donate to MB for this site…I wont pay to be sensored. Everyone that has an opinion other than “PE is the Shiza” gets brow beat as you can now see.
Anyway…I’m givin you +rep because you are no doubt gettin flooded with negs from the fanboys.

Why should he get discount?
This sale has of course something to do with marketing. We all know that. Anyway, it is only the start of sale with virtual land in computer games and I am sure it will gather loads of attention from newspapers and tv stations around the globe. I really don’t think MA would be that stupid and make this false. They are planning to make PE as long-term and now also get much more ppl to join when servers will be ready to recieve the masses.
My guess is that this is only a start on the million trades we will see in the future though.
