Here are the Assets available at today's auction. May the best CEO prevail!
Trust Fund
All bids on this asset are taken from players, doubled, then divided evenly among those who bid.
Moderator Note:
The doubled result is rounded to the nearest 5.
Passive Income
At the end of each Fiscal Quarter your remaining Millions increase by 10%, rounded down to the nearest Million.
Shell Companies
Every Fiscal Quarter, if you have 30 or more Millions, you may choose to Split. If you do, burn 15 Millions and create a Sidekick with that much Millions. That Sidekick takes all damage you would take this round.
Something About Crypto
Whenever you defend or attack, multiply the attack or defense by a random number between 0.75 and 1.5, rounded up. At the start of every round, increase your Energy by a random number between -8 and 10.
Investments
For every Million you spend on this Asset in a Fiscal Quarter, you have an extra 3 Millions to allocate to Lawsuits the following round.
Solar Energy Panels
This asset reduces the cost needed to activate other Assets by 5 Millions each Fiscal Quarter. This reduction is global across all your Assets; you do not get a discount per Asset. This effect is passive.
Headquarters Building
At any time that you have 1 or more Millions, you may sell this asset for 150 Millions, but your counter suits become half as effective from that point onward.
Moderator Note:
Going to have to start a vote for this: does "at any time" also mean during the Allocation Phase or can it only activate during the Resolution Phase?
Jake's Bailout
If at the conclusion of the auction you have a negative number of Millions, adds 40 Millions to your total, otherwise does nothing.
Client Relationships
The winner of this asset can choose another player before Round 1. This is public, and ties them together. For the first 4 rounds, their defense is combined (add their two defense allocations together) and then applied separately to both (e.g. if their combined defense is 30, they
both separately
have 30 defense for that round).
Government Lobbying
If you were to lose the game due to having 0 or less Millions, instead lose this Asset, then your Millions are set to 25.
Moderator Note:
This will not activate during the auction.

Jake's Bailout breaks the auction entirely

Yeah unfortunately I think that power should have been vetoed. You can just bet 100 for everything and be fine.

"adds 40 Millions to your total"
I interpret that as an addition of 40 Millions, eg if you're 60 Millions in the red, you'd get 40 added to your total and would be 20 Millions in the red (which is still death)

I vote yes for during the allocation phase. Anytime means anytime.

Jake's Bailout doesn't but I think Government Lobbying does?

I mean, if you start the game with 25 millions, then that's your fault for losing. "Oh no, everyone attacked me with 100 millions apiece! Aaaaaa!!!"

I imagine that with HQ and Crypto luck, you could survive
although probably not when I think about it

The auction has ended and everyone gets to walk away with their shiny new assets! Wait... only one person's walking out... and they have literally nothing. NotAJumbleOfNumbers wasn't lucky, I suppose. The rest are still in the auction house, seemingly arguing over something. We'll see what happens.
Ircher and Jake The Wolfie have tied on Shell Companies!
Jake The Wolfie and Irrelephant11 have tied on Client Relationships!
NDMath and Irrelephant11 have tied on Government Lobbying!
Please PM me your replacement bids for the ties you're involved in in
(expired on 2022-08-18 16:00:00). Good luck!

made a slight mistake: irrelephant11 won the auction for Solar Energy Panels, so he should have 108 Millions instead of 109

Jumbles should have also not received anything for Trust Fund as they did not bid on it.
Posted: Tue Aug 16, 2022 6:36 am
by lendunistus
ah, missed the “among those who bid” clause
will fix that
Posted: Tue Aug 16, 2022 6:56 am
by Jake The Wolfie
I also believe that I bid a total of negative 10 millions on S.A.C.
Posted: Tue Aug 16, 2022 8:07 am
by lendunistus
yeah no that doesn't work
Posted: Tue Aug 16, 2022 8:34 am
by Jake The Wolfie
At the very least, my bid should be less than 10, possibly 0.

by lendunistus
oh right
Irrelephant11 wins Something About Crypto (106 Millions before ties), Jake The Wolfie now has 61 Millions before ties

I won solar energy panels and it's doing nothing for my bottom line, classic
