Having been inspired by The Biscuit Kid’s Contest, I’ve decided to host a similar contest.

Here are the rules.

1. You must win this auction.

2. Upon winning this auction, you will receive BPs from me.

3. The number of BPs you will receive will be calculated based upon the amount of the winning bid.

A. 60 – 1,500,000 Flezz = 1BP

B. For every 1,500,000 above the first, you will receive another BP, up to a maximum of 20.

3 Million = 2 BP

4.5 Million = 3 BP

6 Million = 4 BP

And so on, up to the Maximum (30,000,000 Flezz = 20 BP)

I think those rules are simply enough, yes?

Good Luck.

MOD EDIT: 4-28-09 this contest was legal when it ran, but by current rules it is illegal. Contests can not be influenced by kyoubai purchases

And, yes, I will still pay out 1 BP if the winning bid is only 60 Flezz.

That’s called the Freebie to get you hooked, kids. Log in to see images!

Even though this may prove detrimental to my contest, I wish you all the best of luck.

You’re offering a much better deal, though. For my contest to pay out 11 BP, they’d have to spend 16.5 Million. Yours is holding at 5.2 Million right now.

Current Best Bid: 500,000 Flezz (Man, I really need to figure out the BBCode for the Flezz icon)

The Flezz icon is two dollar signs in a row.      

Bump…. a 20 BP contest deserves to be near the top of the page.

I don’t blame you, but I think having a Flezz-for-BP contest is the start of everything people had been fearing would happen with the auctions. Essentially, you’ll end up with a Lottery Winner account (at a lower price, I might add) without the cheat label.

What hath EvilTrout wrought?

No sir. If my contest winner pays out 4.5 Million  , they get 3 BP. That’s actually 10% less than if I’d simply bought the   with 3 BP. Additionally, I’m offering up to 20 BP If someone decides they want to buy $25 worth of BP for 30 Million   (i.e., fictional money), and they believe it’s a great deal for them, what’s the harm?

People have been asking if they could trade in  Flezz for BP for a long damn time. All I’m doing is facilitating the transfer, and helping to establish the going rate.

What if it turns out that the going rate for Flezz to BP stabilizes at 5 Million per? Then I just took a loss by being an early pioneer. In fact, I used the Lottery Winner as a guideline, and intentionally reduces the Flezz earnings to keep it reasonable.
