playing entropia universe as my regular go to game.  popping mining probes to find ores as I feel they are the most profitable for me and are fun as I get to see a lot of the landscape with frequent trips into PA or Nea’s or BiG Industries land areas to socialize.  Unjoined from a society recently as the count of people was down to eight and none of them were active players as far as I know.  Entropia is really an on again off again sort of game where if the money’s not flowing the play’s not playing.  The free aspects such as sweating and fruit, stone, and dung finding can fund a huge upside if sweat is marketed correctly.  Auction prices on the lower end which is where most for free players are at.  The auction prices are volatile I’ve seen it described.  And they can be.  When you get 199% for $0.60 worth or 6 ped, then another of the same lot gets 297% or 1 ped worth  going for 3 ped, don’t know what to make of it.  For one it’s a huge difference.   I think the price discrepancy comes from the small amount and player budgets.  getting $1 or 10 ped per 1000 sweat and getting $3 or 30 ped per 1000 sweat can really jump start a free player’s budget.  Getting to that point with bootstrapping is still challenging.  Inpatience, as with most things in entropia, will cause a player to deposit.  And it’s not so bad to deposit as the money played smartly can last and last.  In fact I find myself without enough time to do the things I know are profitable.  So I keep grinding away knowing the ‘investment’ is growing even at a slow pace.

And that’s enough of my rambling log for now.  30 minutes of writing and 30 more to go.  hour of writing.  the hour of art is tough to keep churning though I ought to seek idea sources to get that done.  and what else to write about?
