(does this 100 dragons go towards players, or towards the franchise? as in are we splitting it or putting into manor funds?)
*Raven raises her head from her table, her head previously hovered over a letter she received from her parents -telling her how proud of her they are and that they were hoping for the best- and she smiles over at Arthur* "I'm not going to lie, Sir. I am very interested in what this boxing match could mean for us, and for you. Would it be a good idea to have a small spot for one of us to stand in to take bets, not now but when you get a good following? That is, of course, assuming you keep at it after your first match. Legal betting, of course."
Raven I have no idea how to go about the 100 gold, wether we divide between us, put it towards the tavern , or what . I have no idea what the boxing will do for us regaurdless the outcome . I don't really know much about the gambling laws here. I think it best to assume it's illegal until further notice .
The hundreds dragons will go into the A Inc account to pay monthly dues. Requisitions for funding are to be sent to me and I will choose which account the payout comes from... if it is authorized by concensus...
Ooc: I dont remember how much they are or if we are in good standing for the next month. Herald is doing every little bit of penny pinching he can so the adventurers can make those requests. That's why those stupid little "sure, I'll pay out, but we get a tiny bit of your profit too" crap. Normally I wouldn't worry about it. Pinch an inch to make a pound?
Concerning the 100 gold we just acquired, how many of us are missing from here? I know there are others . They did the work too, but are missing . As far as I know there are 4 of us which would split this 25 for cloud, raven , Herald , and myself. if there are say 4 others , then this would go 12 gold and 5 silver per person. So any plans on how we deal with the missing members share? I for one am for holding it in a separate account for 2 months , which would be plenty of time to claim .
(OOC: Herald said the 100 gold is going into the A Inc funds for monthly dues. Which I'm totally okay with. Just need to find out how we make money on the side for ourselves.)
Party Loot (any attempt to name or rename this to fit the theme has just added confusion, so I'm always calling this Party Loot from now on)
If any money or items comes into to the Party (also known as Team Trollskull for those pay attention and haven't been told this at all by the rest of the team),
This goes to Party Loot (all attempts to theme this to our adventure have just added confusion, especially to those that either don't pay attention or have never been told by the rest of the team)
All money coming in from jobs assigned to the Team by Head Office go into Party Loot. (Head Office is the Acquisitions Incorporated Head Office. The Team is a local Franchise of Acquisitions Incorporated. Your Team is like the local McDonald's, Head Office is like McDonalds Corporate HQ in Chicago)
Both the Profits and Losses from the Tavern's Running a Business roll come into and out of the Party Loot (wanna know how that works? read this: Running a Business , I have explained, typed, Re-explained, and re-typed this out so many times already)
Both the Profits and Losses from the Franchise's Running a Franchise roll come into and out of the Party Loot (wanna know how that works? read this: Running a Franchise , I have explained, typed, Re-explained, and re-typed this out so many times already)
Party Loot will be kept at the Franchise. At this point it is not locked away or held by any one person, chest, bank account, etc. It's the job of the Franchise Hoardsperson to manage and store item, and to track resources. There is also an account on the very first post of this thread of how much and what is in Party Loot.
Funds and Loot going straight to your character will be explicitly stated as such. Examples include earnings from personal Downtime activities, sale of personal items, some faction jobs, etc. There are no Wages at this time, some have been discussed but nothing decided.
The Board of Director's initiative brought up, voted on, and never defined is gone. This supersedes too many options available such as absent player agency and almost the entire job of the Decisionist . The so-called "Original Owners" of the Manor is gone for any reason other than flavor or role-playing purposes. Consider it part of the lien that Acquisitions Incorporated placed on this property as part of the Franchise Contract. (Sad that I had to waste this hook, as there was a funny little thing for anyone truly interested in doing the proper research, or an active Documancer) This is a team game, and everyone that is playing is part of that team. We're not locking player agency away because they didn't join us sooner. They are already paying by missing out on some of the great stuff and loot that happened before they got here.
It is my hope that this will clear some things up, and streamline other thing going forward. Game on!
I added hyperlinks to everyone's Company Position, it takes you to that Position's description. Added several other links where I saw easy ones to fit in.
Cleaned up post #2 a bit and added a few links.
I'm working on cleaning up the Downtime entry on post #4. I'll have the links to all the Downtimes added by the time i'm done. I'm also going to move Mr Russell's Downtime up into that entry.
When Post #5 is emptied I will keep a backup of the 2 business' rolls there. Probably links to the posts where the rolls are made, lasting effects, current contributions to rolls, etc.
Before I got to the Downtime links, I updated the player entries on the first post. Added some pics. Raven I need a pic for you, or a usable link to a pic. Also updated the pics of missing members, hope you like it.
I might condense some of the character specific info into a spoiler tag to reduce space. Faction ranks, downtimes, dates, etc
Before I or anyone else goes shopping ( cloud wanted furniture , Mr Russell wants fruits , baked goods , ect , no idea if Raven or Herald want ), is there anything else to do?
Herald will spend his morning and early afternoon helping around the tavern. Late afternoon and evening he will be returning to a prior job track for a bit.
As for wanting anything, I can handle that stuff myself. Thanks for offering.
After all the shopping is done , Cloud & Arthur show up with 6 bags of fruit ( peaches , apricots, and strawberries ) & 2 bags of peppermints , 2 bags of butterscotch, & 2 bags of chocolates. Arthur walks to Herald and hands him 2 gold. " This should be more than enough for making kids happy , plus we won't have to stomp out any burning bags filled with dung " . " I still have the remaining 6 gold for the Appleblossom's "
(does this 100 dragons go towards players, or towards the franchise? as in are we splitting it or putting into manor funds?)

Good thing Capt Stagget gave a copy of the Code Legal to Arthur:
The hundreds dragons will go into the A Inc account to pay monthly dues. Requisitions for funding are to be sent to me and I will choose which account the payout comes from... if it is authorized by concensus...

We'll know more about how the businesses make money, and how much, "tomorrow" when they make their rolls.
Ooc: so gambling isn't on the list

Ooc I got the one you provided previously posted now
Ooc2 click on Loremonger next to your character, it's a hyperlink to what you seek
Before I or anyone else goes shopping ( cloud wanted furniture , Mr Russell wants fruits , baked goods , ect , no idea if Raven or Herald want ), is there anything else to do?
Snarf's random event roll before the Tavern roll tomorrow:
1
further roll: 3
and another: 7
Snarf walks up to Arthur and says:
"Meesta Dak-eyes, somebody dropped this in the Tavern last night"
He hands Arthur a tiny opaque gemstone that is a light pink in color.
ooc: cool
Thank you Snarf
Herald will spend his morning and early afternoon helping around the tavern. Late afternoon and evening he will be returning to a prior job track for a bit.
As for wanting anything, I can handle that stuff myself. Thanks for offering.
No problem Herald
After all the shopping is done , Cloud & Arthur show up with 6 bags of fruit ( peaches , apricots, and strawberries ) & 2 bags of peppermints , 2 bags of butterscotch, & 2 bags of chocolates. Arthur walks to Herald and hands him 2 gold. " This should be more than enough for making kids happy , plus we won't have to stomp out any burning bags filled with dung " . " I still have the remaining 6 gold for the Appleblossom's "
Mr Russell, why would our neighbors at the bakery have issue with us?
