The problem of course is that technically I could buy a 30 ped esi, take the skills out and sell the remainder of the esi - but as you point out I, unless I hof big time there simply isnt enough money in the avatar to be able to do this. I think the entropiatools.com is the best bet to establish what the end total is as it does give a figure "after ESI cost" to establish a truer profit picture.

As far as actually taking the skills out to sell and give the peds away, I guess I have no choice but at the end of the experiment to get Pinky to bail the newbie out and treat it to an ESI. For the purposes of the experiment, the noob should pay me back (and I will make the calculations to show what the profit/loss would have been if it did), but it will give a nice boost to the prize pool so will probably just donate one to the cause...


Unless anyone has a better idea??
I doubt you will have any skills worth sellling unless as you say you hof on mining or something (not a typical non-depositer thing), I think it could be more fun if you get MA to change the name/look of the avatar and resurect the project again in 3 months
