Auction: Ancient Artifact

Postby The Martian Hegemony » Sun Jul 26, 2015 8:15 am

With the Weapons Auction drawing to a close, we are beginning to set up the next auction of the 1278th annual Bidding Fest! This time, we're auctioning something a little more mysterious...

Image

The Jekkis Obelisk, an artifact thousands of years old that was discovered at the edge of the galaxy, floating through the void nearly a thousand light years from nay star system.
What exactly is it? Who the hell knows? It's old, big, and probably has some function created by a prehistoric race with technology far outpacing that of even the largest spacefaring civilizations. Our best guesses include:
A Terraforming machine
Some kind of terrible weapon
A wormhole generator
A time machine
A portal between universes
A way to contact godlike ascended beings
A message telling of some great discovery

Bidding Form
Code: Select all
[box]Group or individual bidding:
Nation of origin:
Bidding amount (see [i]rules[/i]):
Any extra notes?:[/box]


How do you win?
It's the same as last time, folks. Five days without a bid, and the highest bidder takes home the... old rock thingy. You can't bid more than twice as high as the previous bidder, but you can't bid less than 100 NS$ above the previous bidder, either.
The starting price is 1,000 NS$.

OOC: If you win, send me a TG to find out what exactly this thing really is. Telling others is allowed, but not suggested without a considerable payment from the one seeking the knowledge.


LET THE BIDDING BEGIN!
5.)Total peace, no conflict, total harmony and no real need for military
4.)Heightened security, spying agencies pick up the effort a little
3.)Air and Space forces are prepared to mobilize within 15 minutes
2.)Entire military can deploy within 3 hours of command, some small conflicts may be happening.
1.)War has begun, parts of the military or entire military are actively fighting
0.)War has reached a peak, entire military is mobilized, nuclear warheads and other WMDs have been launched.

Current DEFCON: 4
THIS NATION IS FT/FFT/FanT. IT DOES NOT USE NS STATS.
Political war in Polaria 2: WON
Nomad War: WON
First Separatist War: WON
Second Separatist War: In progress
First Fascist War of Demalia: Withdrawn due to internal affairs
