Idea: Cabals and Money

[Amdorin]

I've been thinking of how to push money through the cabals more, which would eventually reward activity. So I'll put each money idea with each cabal:

Knight: Knights aren't as needy for money as they live all the goodness of blah blah. Basically I cannot think of a money cabal implement for them.

Legion: Those that purchase protection do so due to either suggestion, or fear. So, credit the reason for protection purchase to the corresponding Legionaire. If you buy protection so you don't have to deal with <LegionA> or were suggested by <LegionB>, at Vinnie you would buy protection <Legionaire>. It gives you normal protection, but just gives the specific Legionaire credit for your purchase.

Half the protection money will go in the <Legionaire's> bank account. I think half is good because it will hopefully not be abused that way instead of all the money going into their account.

Justice: Those that are quick enough to buy off the wanted flag before their death, their money (all or half) should be credited to the account of the Justice that flagged them.

I know not many buy off wanted flag, maybe someone can eventually go deeper, but I'll keep it moving.

Warlord: This is more entertainment to the public. Since there's an arena, why not charge a small fee for people to watch the amazing battle tactics of the Warlord cabal? This will give incentive to draw a large crowd to watch, the larger the crowd, the better the pay. Newer people to AR like pk, even though they aren't good at it, so what better than find a way second hand to learn? All participants split the money.

The Juggernaut can handle the money and announce anything like who's paid and so on. The small fee is to watch(this is what participants get), but this can escalate into the viewers placing bets to make money on the victory, but that's more implementation. If it gets greatly popular and don't wish to squeeze a bunch of people in one room, you can add rooms around the outside of the arena that have Juggernauts in them purely to report in that room only and handle bets(original Juggernaut is only one that yells the victories).

The time a warlord must wait to be able to initiate battle may be able to be implemented into the time potential spectators can come to watch (or it can be linked to something completely different), (like when Rimath announces when an item has been submitted for auction)

It will give Warlords that Gladiator feel, and the more active members will be rewarded with money in theory. You can set the proper safe precautions for that so it doesn't get abused or anything. Like a set betting challenge prevents anyone from entering any way or leaving the arena in any way. Possibly make it "non city" area, like when the real gladiaor spectators would leave town and walk miles to see the matches.

It has much potential. Even starting it's own channel for the spectators (participants can't hear it, but only the spectators in the juggernaut rooms can) to banter each other during the battle.

Whatcha think?

I've always thought you should be able to place bets on arena duels. Like boxing matches in Vegas. Much like the auctions, upcoming battles could be announced globally so bets could be taken.

Of course, a portion of the profits could go to the Warlords themselves.

I think It's a good idea.. really good idea. As for the knights, well, they don't need money as much anyhow because they can beg for all their equipment from all the creatures around the realms. And I stress BEG.

Lightwalkers in my opinion are all a buncha panhandlers.

Well I added the fine system precisely so that Justices wouldnt get money from fining people anymore. They still get to keep peoples money when they apprehend. If you guys actually preferred the Justices to get your money..why would you ask for fine command... *boggle*
