I demand bountiful bountifying

[Ari Rahikkala]

I didn't feel like cartography but I needed *some* outlet for my massive procrastination, so here's a bountying recommendation for the MiniInfo. It's gathered mostly from the duchies and ministries, if someone considers there to be other interesting stuff going on, well, just add it on the list and I guess Erik'll take care of it. Also, it's massively biased toward culture and technology and does not reward legislation or politics at all, but that's how we've always done bounties anyway, so if you've spent your time on the SC or something you'll just have to get your funds from... somewhere else

Oh, and also, for the first time in pretty much ever, I didn't make sure that every duchy had at least some sort of money going into it. I think they all did anyway, but I don't think it's worth it in principle to try to bounty a duchy every time just because it happens to be a duchy.

Also, as always, this is just one guy's opinion, in the end if you want to get bountied reliably you have to yell about it yourself

So, first, the bounties:
Jacobus, Ardashir, Erik, Mike, Allot: 100erb each for WikiWork
Scott: 100erb for the nifty idea of Better Know A County
Erik: 1000erb for work on the Bank
Ari, Ardashir, Harvey, Erik, Andreas, Leo, Greg: 400erb each for the Gralus-related story
Hesam: 200erb for http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=11665
Ric: 50erb for development (depending on who you ask ) on K'Tzuni
Aryez: 500erb for work on Khorze
Cho'Gall: 800erb for http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=202&t=11484 - the largest single cultural bounty in the list
Leo: 400erb for same
Allot, Ardy: 200erb for same
Leo, Allot, Ardy, Scott: 600erb each for too much good stuff in Elwynn to really keep track of
W.Payne: 100erb for work on Hallucination, KNA
Andreas, Ardy, Scott: 400erb each for various stories in various places
Greg: 400erb for http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=11436
Greg: 600erb for MASSDIN


And then the wages:

MiniImNat (Jonas): 100erb
MiniInt (ari): 1500erb. (I might be greedy here, but keep in mind the MiniInt forum is the only one besides Kaiser's Court to have had a full page of new threads since the last bountying, with several sessions of hours spent on the ministry)
MiniInfo (Erik): 500erb
MiniEx (Austi): 300erb
MiniEx (Allot): 200erb
MoMA (Ardy): 300erb
MiniTrade (Andreas): 300erb
Praetor (Nathan): 200erb
Praetor (Allot): 200erb
Steward (Ardashir): 200erb
Arbiter (Mike): 200erb
Arbiter (Leo): 50erb

Per person, it all adds up to (using the names used on the bank, and checking stuff and doing calculations manually so errors may or may not abound):

Erik Mortis Brookshire: 2000
Mike Fors: 300
Hesam Jayatar: 200
Allot: 1300
Leo: 1450
The Khan of Vijayanagara: 2000
Austi: 300
Ari Rahikkala: 1900
Scott: 1100
Jacobus Loki: 100
Harvey: 400
Andreas the Wise: 1100
WPayne: 100
Gman Russell: 1400

Cho'Gall (800) and Aryez (500) don't have bank accounts as far as I can see; someone should probably poke them about this.

[Scott of Hyperborea]

Seems too easy to earn money through fiction compared to other methods.

[Arviður]

Fiction is not easy, it is difficult to write, at least for me who is not a native speaker of the English language.

[Erik Mortis]

Sounds good to me. Andreas. I guess there's "my" list for bounties.

[Leo Fenrir]

Did you include ISI works as part of "awesome Elwynn things"?

[Ari Rahikkala]

I don't know, you should ask the MiniInfo about that. It's his list now after all

[Malliki Tosha]

Is Hesam a Shirerithian citizen? I'm not clear on that.

[Jonas]

Fiction is not easy, it is difficult to write, at least for me who is not a native speaker of the English language.

Indeed. That's why I don't write many fictional stories, while I'm probably the most active fiction writer in the Dutch sector.

[Harvey Steffke]

Oh hey, money. That's cool. Not that I have access to my account or anything but thanks anyway.

[Andreas the Wise]

Oh hey, money. That's cool. Not that I have access to my account or anything but thanks anyway.

You don't? Would you like me to reset the password?

And Erik - I'll just wait for your comment on the ISI, and then pay these out.

[Harvey Steffke]

Please do so. Incidentally, I'm not even sure what the actual account is named. I tried making them at a time when Erik was doing something with the code so everything apparently got a bit jumbled and I was never really sure what was accepted.

[Ari Rahikkala]

Is Hesam a Shirerithian citizen? I'm not clear on that.

Pretty sure he is, I didn't see him emigrate after http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=10537

[Erik Mortis]

Yeah... the Apostrophe in your name broke the bank. I had to remove it.

ISI? Sure. Even though I find the organization questionable these days and plan to blow it up in the rebellion.

[Leo Fenrir]

Does that mean more money for ISI or noes?

[Andreas the Wise]

Yeah... the Apostrophe in your name broke the bank. I had to remove it.

ISI? Sure. Even though I find the organization questionable these days and plan to blow it up in the rebellion.

I need a number.

[Ari Rahikkala]

... also, I somehow managed to miss http://shireroth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=93&t=11823 when looking at Greg's bounty for MASSDIN. The 600 erb is for just the Tearsfall and Mirioth History threads...

Yeah, if you read it, I gave him 2000 for that as soon as it came out.

[Ari Rahikkala]

Ah, very good, then, sir

[Erik Mortis]

300? There.. a number.

[Arviður]

I would like to donate my 50 erb to a worthy cause.

[Erik Mortis]

Then do so?

[Andreas the Wise]

Ok, I'll take that number and allocate this period's bounties.

[Andreas the Wise]

Those with accounts have been paid money. Hesam, I notice, has two accounts. If I've paid it into the wrong one, tell me, and I'll swap it over and delete the wrong one.

[Hesam Jayatar]

Andreas,

I will check my accounts and intend to donate anything in them to economic stimulation. Further, thank you for developing the economic model and bringing it to a practical application.

[Andreas the Wise]

You're most welcome. Thankyou for setting up the economy in the first place.
