Dammit, Wonko. I appreciate a good scam as much as the next man but can't you at least pick out numbers that are easy to multiply? I'm on NyQuil, for heavens' sake.

At any rate, the roster has now been updated with your 30,000,000,000~.

(Oh, and bravo. I'm beginning to think my inability to spot a decent scam from any distance is going to be a serious detriment to any participation in this game.)

Thank you, but I'm nowhere near as rich as you've made me appear - there's a cap on how much tildex can exist each nweek. It can't go above the greater of 100000 and W+2(W-P), where W is how much there was when this nweek started, and P is how much existed at the beginning of last nweek.

W+2(W-P) is 9950 + 2*(1000) = 11950 < 100000, so I have 100000-9465 = 90535 tildex at the moment, and nobody else can gain more because exactly 100000 exist. So while I haven't gotten thirty billion tildex, I have effectively cornered the market.
