First Loot to pass 100k

[MindBuster]

New #1 All Time High

Leeloo Leeloo Mountain from "Belgium Dutch Society" is the first person to pass 100.000 PED single loot in Entropia-Universe !!!

...and that by a great deal, a nice sum of 158.000 PED, which equals $15.800 USD as the Entropia currency PED is at a fixed 10/1 exchange rate to the US Dollar, and can be withdrawn to a real life bank account, and soon able to withdraw using a Entropia-Universe ATM Card (Maestro).

Leeloo found a deposit of Copper stone while mining, and what a find.

Do you want the chance to find such big loots easily withdrawn to your real life bank account ? Then visit http://www.entropia-universe.com , apply for an account and download the free software with no monthly fees.

Congratulations from EntropiaForum to "Leeloo Leeloo Mountain"

Gratz to LeeLoo. I admit that like with every other ATH, I'm jealous about it (if the thought "Wow, I'd like to have had one like that" passed through your mind it's jealousy already. I don't understand these people who make such a big hipocrisy out of it).

Though once again, my criticism side (or call it whining or bashing if you're a blind fanboy) tingles to write a few things about it:

This was seriously the most evident publicity stunt EVER! Even more so than CND (we should assume MA didn't know that the asteroid would go for buyout) IMO, because it was done purposedly. Well, at least I strongly believe it was done purposedly, because it's all too much of a coincidence:
Happened while a TV team was there, was a pretty round number for a HoF (odds of getting it round like that are 1 in 10 thousand), and also happened during all this fuss with MA and the press these days.

I won't go on rambling about that "spread the wealth" thing, because honestly, with each passing week (read: "each new ATH") I see how MA is heading exactly the opposite way.

Now the thing that really got me somewhat annoyed, is that if MA can afford to give out a 158k HoF like that, WHY ON F***ING EARTH do they act like they can't drop any more good items? (Yeah, a mod teg dropped recently, but look at how many good items there are, and how many have dropped in a while!)

Maybe the reason is because a purple message won't appear for all saying somebody looted an Improved A-3 Justifier Mk.2?
Maybe because a purple message won't appear for all saying somebody looted an Improved A-3 Justifier Mk.2 with a market price of over 95K PEDs?
Maybe because a purple message won't appear for all saying somebody looted an Improved A-3 Justifier Mk.2 with a market price of over 95K PEDs while an important european TV channel is recording?

This was the one thing that bit me about this ATH. Other than that, it's sure good to see the economy is growing yada-yada...

No it didn't, unless the area around Echinda is now on the asteroid


Not denying the timing for the media event isn't convenient however

Ah, I see. Read on a post from another thread that it happened there. I'll edit out of the post then. Thanks for the correction.

[whodi]

Well Im glad I know the reason I spent 100ped on ammo and got 78 PEC (NOT PED) and 43ped worth of decay!!!! YAY MA WAY TO SPREAD THOSE LOOTS AROUND!

It seems that MA wants to move EU away from gambling and into lottery. And they wonder why people aren't flocking to register accounts when they see the publicity stunts :P

People aren't stupid, they know when there is more to be won there is also more to be lost. In the end, I see more loss resulting from bigger ATHs than more gain, since a rather small portion of human population are compulsive gamblers and gamblers don't stick around playing on the computers.

I love losing a thousand ped a day so someone can get 158k PED hof. Hats off to him though, wish MA would give me my wasted life back.
