Matt Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 We've made a decision. It's an item avatar. It's quite expensive, but the cheapest item one out there we don't have... Behold. IT'S MEOWCLOPS TIME! The estimated collateral for our Meowclops is 2 million Neopoints. And we believe that's rather optimistic. So, it'd be nice to raise more. :P But 2 million isn't going to be a walk in the park. I am aware it will take a long time, but boy will it be worth it. :) Lets get going, guys! Only... 1.85 million Neopoints left! Eric and Matt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Dan. Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Aww. 2 million collateral? That blows...no way in hell I'd afford that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOPGhost Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 I thought the ahoy part was a hint what is the target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted February 9, 2007 Author Share Posted February 9, 2007 It was. Although that would've made more sence. Never mind. :P We've had a think, and we're thinking about working some of the elements of pet lending (Going on trust only) for some of the higher priced items (Say... above 1 mill). Would that be something you lot would be interested in doing? I mean, it will probably mean a few more rejections of applications, but it would mean you got it free. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillon Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 i wish i could even afford a tenth of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zac Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 It was. Although that would've made more sence.

Matt Posted February 10, 2007 Author Share Posted February 10, 2007 Eeeeexactly. :) Well, we'll cross that hill when we come to it. But for now, I think we just need lots and lots of moneh. Heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥ Princess Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 2 Million Collat! Are you serious! I can't afford that! My accounts probably not even worth 2 Million! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Dan. Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Then you can just build up some respect and trust, and cash it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strategos Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Yeah, or you can just earn more money. ;) Don't worry, my account isn't worth 2 mil either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted February 13, 2007 Author Share Posted February 13, 2007 Hmm... our Collateral Counter has gone haywire, giving everybody below a certain post count (In this case) higher collateral than what's actually needed. Basically, it's showing us you'll need to pay about 2.5 mill if you post 30 posts, but only 2.0 mill if you haven't posted at all. Hmm... Regardless, we will never go over the top with collateral. Ever. The counter goes start to go down... rather rapidly with more posts you do around here, but other factors will help, too. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Cheese Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 what is your "collateral counter" ? DOes Ian have no collateral? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zac Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Probably very little...like 5K-10K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloudedsunny Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Hmm I must have a fair bit of collateral on that counter then. I keep putting off borrowing things from the ALP cos I'm scared of rejection LOL!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 Eric and I will answer any random questions about the ALP on the "The ALP" pinned topic which is there for such questions. Thankyou. And no, since we know you, you probably won't get rejected. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannah Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 My account is worth 2 mill. It's worth it but I don't have much collat (500k) x] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pia Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Uh. Meowclops sells for like 1.2 I thought. =/ hi i'm back. you know. i really don't understand how the meowclops got to be this expensive. they used to sell for 300k nps around this time last year. unlike the mootix that disappears when you try to take it off your pet's petpet, the meowclops can actually be re-sold after getting the avatar.

Matt Posted February 16, 2007 Author Share Posted February 16, 2007 you know. i really don't understand how the meowclops got to be this expensive. they used to sell for 300k nps around this time last year. unlike the mootix that disappears when you try to take it off your pet's petpet, the meowclops can actually be re-sold after getting the avatar. Precisely. Doing a quick sweep of the Trading Post before announcing our new target showed the general trend to be about 2 million (Not the 1 million we were previously told). So we're airing on the side of caution and asking for 2 million. We don't want you lot disappointed when we say we can't afford one now, can we? :sad01_anim: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antiaircraft Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Inflation's getting steeper these days eh? *goes to donate* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Yeah, the inflation is nearly going up vertically, and I think this is due to the "amazing" discovery of it being an avatar item. Other examples are icy snowflakes... Orange PBs... The prices have risen to insanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted February 16, 2007 Author Share Posted February 16, 2007 Again, that's exactly the reason why we should get this target done ASAP. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 I'm controlling myself not to spend so much NPs... How can I contribute... Perhaps I can donate you with more sands when I do have some :D *which I will* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
