A new mission I started is making some buzz on BlogShares. I really don't understand why.
I started a mission where i'm giving away GMail invitations. Anyone who wants to receive my invitation has to answer the mission. The entry cost of the mission is 30 chips. That's my profit.
This mission resulted in different reactions from the other players. Some of them think it's not right to charge for Gmail invitations. 2 of them even Private messaged me saying that. I cannot understand all that buzz. Why can't i sell a GMail account invitation for virtual money (chips) in a game where the purpose is speculate, buy, sell earn vitual money? Everybody is doing that with links, why not with Gmail invitations or anything else?
I think the problem is that nobody had the idea before - at least in BlogShares, because everybody is doing that for the last months on e-bay (and for real money).
On the other hand, some other players who are really playing started new missions with the same purpose. sell Gmail invitations. This time, for 20 chips.
I think this game is all about that. Creating virtual markets, spoeculation. Now, if more people will copy this mission, the price will drop, and that will be great because there's still lots of people who want a GMail invitation.
