Maelstrom Vortex Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 (edited) OOC: Pardon, Capital, not Capitol.. Guess who just got his stock market! The free market portion of the Dragon Empire economic system has gone global today with the opening of the incredibly large DECM Building in downtown Dragonisia. The Building is currently housed underground in the center of the capitol, but during times of peace an elevator system will move it to the surface to bathe in glorious sunlight. The Building is part of the "Sword Complex" of the downtown capitol which includes the Great Temple, the DECM Capital Markets, and the war memorial which is currently under construction. DECM Trading Center, Dragonisia, The Dragon Empire "Those nations which have a friendship treaty with the Empire are cordially invited to send their banks and capital funds to participate on the trading floor. There will be a small access fee of course, but for the availability to one of the largest economies in the world it is a modest price." Stated Economics Minister Dawson Jones. "I also would like to announce an indexing service which will be run by myself and the Dragon Empire National Bank and the Dragon Empire Sovereign Wealth Fund... It will be called the Dawson Jones Industrial Average, and will include the top 100 performing companies on the DECM."

V The King Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 ooc: Definitely is.. OOC: Are you trying to say that you have developed an elevator capable of bringing a building of 300+ meters up and down? Hell, an elevator that does that at all? /mind blows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Vortex Posted February 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 ooc: Yup... very.. very large motors and plate based lift into a very deep chasm. If you're going to spend what equates to 3 billion in real dollars, 30 million game dollars, on a building.. may as well have it be a true wonder.

V The King Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 OOC: Is that even feasible, with today's knowledge of civil engineering? Come on, Mael. No offense, but you're pushing it very far. If I wasn't so tired right now, I'd have smashed my monitor in reaction to the OP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Vortex Posted February 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 ooc: Is it practical? Not really, it's a real waste of money for most intents and purposes. Is it feasible?... ohh boy.. that's a very big question. I can only say that I think so but only in very seismically stable areas and only if you moved the structure very.. very slowly.

Sargun II Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 OOC: Eh, I'll allow it. It isn't really harming anyone, and with enough money/big enough motors it's probably possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
