Are Speed and the King in on this fork or are they planning/making another version of CK? Or are they out of the game completely?
Speed has not been on IRC, CK Slack, etc. in forever. His last post on BTCTalk was in September 2017. If HMC wants to make his own thing, he is welcome to, but he is also welcome to play in this CK with his items/etc.
I spent 200 XMR to purchase CKG just before the game was unpaused
We all lost money on the game. Even those who were able to get something out of the depo are still way down on crypto terms (but possibly up on fiat terms).
We were all misled by things like "unpausing" and the like. I know I'm not alone in thinking (at least at one time) that all of Risto's nonsense was some sort of alternative reality game (ARG) to promote a new version of CK.
If Ristos items are going to be taken away without refunding the creditors, the game should at least be forked from a date prior to the depo scam.
We won't be doing a prior date fork. For one, CK is not a blockchain so a database fork, especially given how the data was stored, would be an absolute mess.
Just to give one example, what happens with Karl Hungus and Gringotts? All those items him and Roopatra auctioned off are now back in his account to sell again, and honestly based on earlier posts from him, it looks pretty clear he wants the position that he has now (not as a player but as an asset-holder). He even killed off both of his characters!
I have no XMR, no CKG and no BTC.
Fork prior to the depo scam or refund the debt holders from Zechariach.
At least use other chars for the good of the game, but use at least Zechariach to repay his debts.
We are not dealing with the B1 and E1 depos. If someone has issues with Risto, get in touch with him. There is Malla Manor / Bitcoin castle and tens of millions (at current values if he kept what he had) in that Poloniex account he flashed to us in 2017.
Let us try to actually do something with the game and leave this depo stuff behind us.
The main motivation for reviving CK is -- honestly -- it is insane that something like this with such a history/lineage and so much money moving around it is dead now.
I mean on just what Risto paid PJ (was it 10k or 20k XMR, can't remember now) to "never work for money again," that is $2mil to $4mil at current market values (and was $200k to $400k when paid). Why do we not have a game after that?
Hell, Risto had upwards of 50k XMR in just his CK XMR wallet around the same time. Ten million dollars go poof and still no game?!?
