Ahah! Sucker!
The DecaDollar is the lowest unit of currency there is. Its as common as dirt!
And now the writerubles shall be forever set as only 10 times as much as a DecaDollar!

Deal. You can have the remaining .0005 Jibucks for 10 mookies.

The Jixchange is currently closed until the Jimint can print more Jibucks.

The Jixchange better cap global productiona t some point, or it'll find itself in the same boat as the N_$ (Newhook Dollar).

Also, great symbol. Ψ ! Now I'm off to make a few changes to the currency exchange wiki page on account of the fact that exchange rates now appear to be stabilising.

I'll be setting a few standards in place, which will remain fixed for "major" currencies which are worth more against the Nixorbuck and loose for "minor" currencies so that they exchange rates have a chance to stabilise in the future. You'll see what I mean once the changes are done.

Jicannon, you've fucked up the exchange rate.

To set it straight:

Mookie, you've got 1 Jibuck. 1 Jibuck is worth 10 mookies. Which means there are 330 Jibucks to the Nixorbuck and therefore 1540 idnar to the Nixorbuck.

Nothing can be worth more than a Nixorbuck.

Jicannon, you need to post a total amount for the Jibucks that will be minted. I'm going to use 1,000,000 as a placeholder.

Everybody else who has specifications missing: You've been assigned a placeholder figure as well.



I can replace these easily enough. I now have a spreadsheet with various facts and figures available to me as a result. All I have to do is alter one or two columns and the figures all shift to reflect the changes.

Anybody else who wants to horn in will from now on have to consult both the Currency Exchange and the PEEL Mint on the wikiPEELia for information.

Everybody who has minted currency should register the appropriate information with the Mint in order to continue trading. Inflation rates, the number of units in circulation, and the value of your currency against N$ will soon begin to fluctuate.

The Jimint is in the process of printing 850,500 Jibucks, which will be completed shortly if all goes according to plan. Intelligence reports possible sabatoge from Newhook, who seems to want me in his boat

Right. There will be a total of 850,500 Jibucks. 4 have already been printed and distributed.

That's the last time that anybody sets a global total without consulting the formula laid out in the PEEL Mint.

     
Quote
i) PEELers wishing to mint currency must check the following:

iA) That the total amount of their currency which has already been minted is not already greater than their post count multiplied by the number of PEELiversaries that they have celebrated, added to the total number of Nixorbucks in circulation. If the total amount minted is greater than this amount already, then no more currency can be minted.

iB) That the value of their currency against the Nixorbuck is higher than at least two other currencies. If this is not the case, no more currency can be minted.

I shall update my spreadsheet accordingly.

Edit: Updated.

I have also updated Jicannon's page on the wiki, with a short block of text attempting to explain why it is "Jicannon's Law" that all PEEL currency can be minted in integers only, rather than it being "common sense".

Finally, I'll be wanting some Jibucks, Jicannon. I'll give you 600tpUK or N$10 for 3,300 Jibucks. This is in keeping with the current exchange rate.

I will also be minting a special edition run of oure thulium and thallium Zoids, numbering 100 each.

Standard Zoids will be available for one half of a Nixorbuck, or any equivalent.**  The special edition Thulium Zoid or Thallium Zoid will be available for 50 Nixorbucks or any equivalent.

*May change at any time for little or no reason.
**Exchange rates are probably negotiable.  Unless you think they're fine, in which case value doubles.

If we accept that you have produced 50,000 of your base unit, the Zoid (and that the exchange rate will initially be set by transactions since there is nothing worth more than N$'s), then I'll give you 1000tpUK for ZŲ750 (feel free to change the symbol).

Once you have begun to trade (don't know why I didn't notice your post earlier, sorry), I will add you to the tracking spreadsheet so that I can keep track of your currency.

Please take a look in the Mint on the wiki, everyone. The Mint contains an incomplete list of registered PEEL currencies which is in need of updating. If you add your currency to the table correctly I'll give you 10tpUK for free. This will not affect exchange rates.

Well...seeing as how you are the freakin monetary genius behind this whole thing......no way! I want 601tpUK!  :p

Just kidding. You have yourself a deal there.

Tnuk, I reject your exchange rate and substitute my own!  Oh, wait, no, I accept it.  Can I safely assume I calculate the Zoid worth compared to all other currencies based on the exchange rate with the TpUK?

Also, you say there can be nothing worth more than the Nixorbuck ... does this include my special edition Zoids, or can they get a special consideration since they're, well, special?  Either way, I just want to move them ... apparently thallium is toxic and gives you cancer err, really neat, so buy some today!

Your special-edition Thulium and Thallium Zoids will likely just fuck my not-very-sophisticated exchange model in the arse, so you'll just have to be content with 50,000 regular Zoids.

You can safely assume that the Zoid-for-tpUK exchange rate reflects the value of the Zoid versus the rest of the currency chart.

Jicannon: Consider the transaction transacted.

I will update the wiki with both purchases, with mookie's currency, and with a new spreadsheet showing Zoids and their standing against the other currencies.

I will also update my signature.

Zoidberg227, Jicannon, I'm going to assume that you're both capable of updating the PEEL Mint registry with your own currencies, and I will leave this to you. As soon as I see them on there, your 10tpUK each will be credited to you, and the transaction logged.

Edit: Updates processed.

Nurd, if you'd like to register the Slavlic as a currency with the PEEL Mint, then please feel free to do so. However, the number in circulation will be capped according to the rules of the Mint.

I'll offer you a favourable exchange rate on a decent-sized wedge of Slavlics in both N$ and tpUK once you join the game.

Weiner becomes the first to receive a 10tpUK stipend for entering his own details onto the Mint registry form, and not fucking it up. Congratulations!

Hooray! That's equal one-third of a Golden Weinsar I received! I'm so happy that I learned some basics of Wiki editing!

I calculated that I've actually minted about 8,000 GW less than I could've, based on the Mint regulations. Just means the Golden Weinsar is more valuable than I previously thought! And, now that I know about this, I don't see myself minting any more in the near future.

No. You didn't do it correctly (see the very minor changes I have made) and are therefore inelegible for the stipend.

You were born. You left out something key. Look at the Nixorbuck, totalpenceUK, Mookie, and Golden Weinsar on that table and see what the difference between those and yours are.

Also, Writer and Jicannon, I don't think either of you updated the PEEL Mint table correctly either. Like with Decapodian, you're both missing one key thing.
