Other players are bidding on this corporation. The auction ends Apr 15 2560. Currently, the highest bid is 1.42T SC$ and it has been placed by Federal Territory I. To keep this corporation you can chat with Federal Territory I and convince the president to retract the bid. or you can work hard and increase the market value of the corporation to at least 1.42T SC$. If the market value of the corporation exceeds the highest bid, the corporation remains yours.

when its said and done, this guy is going to be out 2t. thats why i usually don't mind hostile bidding

this one bothered me, mostly because, well real life issues almost stopped me from being able to bomb him

at this point i consider the matter closed, and no further action should be taken against this player, reguarding this hostile bid

Hey J. I just checked him out and he has no neighbors so if he doesn't stop let me know. I have no issues at present and will be more than happy to wipe his slave off the map for you. Just say the word. :)

You cannot direct sale while a bid is placed on your corp. At least you weren't used to be able to do that. If that's changed let me know.

last time i tried, when some one nationalizes a ceo corp, you can just move it

this was an fmu corp, it was making a little over 1b a tick, 3-4b a day, he bought it for 1.4t, even if i hadn't debt bomed it, it would have taken how long to pay itself back? about a year... so he gave me 1 real year production... in "most" cases of hostile bidding i've seen, i'm getting more in the area of 3-6 months production from the sale. and if i bomb them, its even better

honestly, new players who don't know the ropes, are shooting themselves in the foot by bidding. they don't know a "bargan," when they see one. they go "ooo look a 1t corp, its gotta be good, lets buy it..." and then they WASTE 1t getting a corp that they would have been better off building, and trying figure out how to manage that corp...

so in most cases, i don't care. with the money i get from the sale, i can preplace t
