Raeli Tile-of-the-Week Club

Like half of the population of Egypt, I'm trying to gather enough resin to construct a Raeli Oven. Let's try something a little different.

For a limited time, you can invest in a Raeli Oven. Your investment will gain you a share of every color of tile that the oven produces. Here's how it works: Once the oven is up, there will be a few days of experimenting and practicing. Once I'm satisfied that I know what I'm doing, I will dredge tiles for a week, bake them, dredge for another week, bake to a different color, etc. Your investment will entitle you to a portion of the tiles for as long as it takes to run through all of the colors the oven produces twice. (NOTE: If methods are discovered by which the color palette of the oven can be expanded, this offer applies only to the default cycle of colors the oven produces.) For both cycles, 80% of the tiles produced that week will be split evenly among the investors. After two full color cycles, the investment is considered repaid. (However, in appreciation I'll always do what I can to help my past investors acquire the tiles they need.)

What's the cost? Resin. Specifically, 50 debens of Hawthorn resin will buy you one share of the oven. I will be selling a maximum of 25 shares. If I acquire resin by other means in the meantime, I will sell less shares, which means the value of your share could actually go up!

If not enough interest is generated to get the oven built, your resin will be returned, along with a token of appreciation.

Notes: - Yes, you may buy more than 1 share. - No, I don't know what colors the oven will produce. - No, I don't know exactly how many tiles you'll be receiving, as I've not played with an oven before. But rest assured I'll be doing whatever is in my power to try to maximize the output. It matters to me, too!

If you're interested in investing, please /chat me. I am sometimes AFK, so I will respond as soon as I'm able. Thanks for reading!

In Case of Disaster...

If I should decide to leave Egypt before the above agreement has been fully honored, a poll will be taken among the investors. If a majority of the investors (not weighted by number of shares) can agree upon a leader among them, a guild will be formed with the chosen person as Elder, and the oven will be given to the guild. How the group distributes responsibility and tiles after that will be in their own hands. If no majority opinion can be reached for a leader, the oven will be salvaged, with each investor receiving a portion of the full amount of salvaged materials (weighted by number of shares).
