since your Real World Hero offer (again, thank you very much), the base is now sitting on 3.5 million unused prestige, so there is no need here atm

If you could put it off till after summer I'd be interested.

I'd certainly be interested. Running on infinity currently.

Send me emails in game, to @Boltcutter , (with your forum name in the message so I know who's who) and I will either meet up with you (if we're both on and it's convenient) or email you the inf for burning.

The goal is to simplify the whole "what's your global" dance I always end up doing.

Ed: Diggis, I'll probably do it again in the fall. I show no signs of going anywhere.

So you think you're a hero, huh.
@Boltcutter in game.

You fixed me up good with the last round Fulmens. I have all the immediate necessities in my base. Now I am just adding decorations so I can wait to accumulate the necessary prestige for that

I'll take you up on this again for the full 200 mil as I have recently started my own SG to store my alts. @Guardian Irish-Fury.

I could go for this. I'd be looking for the full 200m, Blueside on Virtue ( @Triplash ). I'll send you that email.

Weird timing, too; I was just thinking about this yesterday. Thanks for making the offer again

I'll do that tonight, thanks Fulmens.

I'm always looking for prestige for my solo SG, I'm on liberty @hazygreys

/gignore @username is the best feature of this game. It's also probably the least used feature.

I'm new to this base building thing (just have a solo SG) so can someone explain to me in small words what's being offered here?

You can go to the SG/VG Registrar in Atlas Park / Port Oakes and convert influence to prestige. The exchange rate, at 500:1, is horrible. He's offering to match the amount you are converting to prestige. So, if you convert 100 million inf to 200,000 prestige, he'll contribute a similar amount. So your exchange rate effectively becomes 250:1.

Before you ask the next question: Yes, he's basically giving away free money.

I'm interested in doing this for 200m Fulmens, or as much as you have left; my global is @linarra, on Victory server. I'll email you tonight. Thanks!

Fulmens, you are definitely on my Christmas Card list (or is that a bad thing...?)!

Thank you for offering this again. I will send a tell/email to you this weekend.

(Edited for poor reading comprehension on my part)

Thanks for being there for the base community!

Fascinating. But it seems as though there's already enough interest to hit his 1B cap and so I'll have to wait for (maybe) next time.

Thanks for the explanation. I was twisting my brain trying to figure it out and wouldn't have guessed "free money".
