Like most parasitic organisms, it finds a way to “encourage” its carriers to spread itself. I would presume in this case, through driving the players into debt, and then making it so that the only way to alleviate some of this debt would be to get “bonuses” through poking friends on social media websites into joining as well, becoming new vectors of the disease.
You know, this game is still less immoral than its obvious inspiration Monopoly, where the aim of the game is not to make profits. Instead, the aim is to bankrupt all the other competitors and make the entire economy collapse. (Monopoly was originally an educative game, called The Landlord’s Game, aimed at showing how land ownership was a threat against the common wealth of a society.)
Since this game is already at this point, why bother calling it a game at all? Just call it the Stock Market, and be done with it. The old joke was that “Wall Street was Vegas for people who wind up rich,” now it’s just, “Vegas where you bet with other people’s money, and get more money and fame for getting caught cheating.”
So you’re wondering why you’re the only one that calls this person a certain name, when his actual name is different. Hmmm, I wonder why that is too…..
A Gunsmith and an Arms Dealer both generally have the same definitions.
Let me word this correctly: I didn’t mean to ask why noone else calls the Arms Dealer by something other name when his actual name is different, I ment to ask is there someone other then myself that calls the Arms Dealer by something else.
Because he has an actual name, and due to custom of politeness, people usually refer to one another by their names, rather than job titles, Comment Poster.
Actually no, a gunsmith crafts guns, usually to sell but not necessarily. An arms dealer sells guns, typically en masse to paramilitary organizations but the title could refer to a small-time gun seller as well. Nothing about an arms dealer implies that he himself crafts the guns.
Wait, they have dollars, here? Terraria uses a D&D-esque metals-based currency system that is nevertheless tied to the invisible forces of Communism that keeps a mandatory fiat-enforced price for every commodity no matter how much inflation would be brought about through AFK farming methods. (I have cornered the market in unicorn horns and fairy dust, I’ll have you know!)
There’s no reason to believe it would be American dollars, (especially with a Canadian writing this,) so if I have to pay, I’ll just presume they mean “Zimbabwe Dollars”, what with the fact that it’s clearly in the spirit of the game to do so.
wait a minute……does anybody realise its day here?it is night where every1 else is.terraria doesnt follow world logic jesse!the whole world is day or night!!!
Of course, considering what the merchant is wearing, wouldn’t it be more appropriate for the Merchant to be demanding “a pound of flesh” from his opponents than to be making more modern criticisms of capitalistic excess, Jesse?

In the books redwall the moles speak a lot like Mr. Demo. hey Jesse why don’t you give redwall a try to see If you like the moles speech more than Scottish speech. 😀
But you have to play with the expansion set where you get either your lobbyist, lackey, or your offspring elected with your outstanding government-granted wealth, so that they can then write tax legislation giving you more subsidies and exempting you from paying tax for that to really kick into full gear. If it weren’t for the fact that the average congressperson is a millionaire, how else would the economy stagnate as all the wealth was concentrated into the hands of a few short-sighted billionaires, rather than circulating and allowing the economy to prosper?
Where can i buy a copy?
i can’t tell you where… saying that would cost me 25$…
Then how does the game get sold if nobody says where it’s sold?

Wow. That game is more confusing than sceneit.
Or life.
Life is confusing to you?
Unless you mean the board game- LIFE.
or the cereal
You know what’s really sad, my school doesn’t get the day off on veteran’s day. 🙁
Neither do we. Plus, that has nothing to do with this…
lol yea. i like you jedininja 😉 funny person
this game is hil ar I ous
Why thank you.
They need to publish this game…
it would be awesome
How did the discussion of MacDonald’s food get into their conversation I wonder…
Where’s the arms dealer Jesse? Jesse? JESSE?!
Dead.
How come I’m the only one that calls Tyrone the Gun Smith?
Because in the game, the NPC is called the Arms Dealer.
That still doesn’t explain why I’m the only one.

i second this.

So how do you play?
If I told you it would cost you 25$
In American dollars, or terraria gold?

I REALLY want a copy of that game. sounds like a crap-load of fun
My head hurts XD
Ha Ha! Me too! I thought I was smart, but after reading the rules of Oligopoly I realized that I’m not as smart as I thought I was…
it makes perfect sense to me… ._.
Wow
Such comic
So board game
Wow
wow
such unexpected meme post
so give me $25 dollars so i can add the other wow.
im addicted to this
How are you addicted to something that isn’t real?
Fake comment please ignore.
Wat
wait a minute……does anybody realise its day here?it is night where every1 else is.terraria doesnt follow world logic jesse!the whole world is day or night!!!
This isn’t happening exactly at the same time as Cyril is doing his magic training this would be taking place right after Maxx and the others left.
There have been previous events like this, however.
IIRC, When Aley nuked Tyrone, it was morning for Aley, but it was still night for everyone else.
Yeah, this comic – http://legendofmaxx.com/?p=973
Day for Aley (and the rabbit), night for the others, and they refer to it being at the same time for both groups.
Time zones. Duh.
Of course, considering what the merchant is wearing, wouldn’t it be more appropriate for the Merchant to be demanding “a pound of flesh” from his opponents than to be making more modern criticisms of capitalistic excess, Jesse?
First to say first!
nope
Holy… he is right. Astrid was the first to say first.
First to say first about myself!
(You all knew that’s what i ment you cheekey perfectionalists.)
BTW, the first comment broke the LoM code by not saying it was first. SACRILIGE!!!!!11!1!
am i the first one to notcie the game chips on the ground around the anvil?
No, those are water pixels from the game. I was about to comment about them and ask why they were there, but you beat me to it.
Nope, that’s not water. I think it’s more likely that it’s chips/cards.
HOUSEZZZZZZ

Prolly because that’s Jesse’s timezone, not yours.

I bet he’s read it before, but it is a really good series.
My family and me played Oligopoly all the time! But we played it with unlimited credits from the government… cause it’s more realistic that way.

I know who made it! [insert 25$ to see text] made it!
Loria is quite good. Now please hurry up with installment number 2.
It’s way harder to write books than you think. Go on, make one within 4 days. Do it.
