Bidding Rules

  • Bids will only be accepted in Arkoins.
  • Minimum bid increment 1000 Arkoins.
  • Any items other than Arkoins (eg PED) will be deemed invalid. For the item being auctioned:
    • There will be no buyout bid amount
    • For the first four (4) weeks, the auction will remain open.
    • After the first four weeks, the auction will then end when a bid remains the top bid for a period of 48 hrs
    • Such a 48 hr period will be taken to have begun no earlier than four (4) weeks after the auction thread is published
    • The winner is required to contact Dylan | Arkadia to arrange for trade or collection of auctioned items said item will be delivered at five (5) percent (%) tt value, within one week of the end of the auction.
    • If the winner of the auction fails to collect their award within the aforementioned one week of the end of the auction, the item will be awarded to the next highest bidder.
  • The potential issue has been raised that somebody could bid a million bajillion Arkoins that they don’t have, with the plan of winning the auction, not claiming their prize, and having the prize go to their friend, the second bidder with a very small bid.
    • This is a great point, and we appreciate it having been raised.
    • Arkadia Studios will at its discretion check that interesting bids are backed by an actual Arkoin balance.
    • Arkadia Studios will announce a bid to be invalid on such grounds if deemed necessary.
    • Please note, “a million bajillions” is not a real number, though legitimate attempts to bid this high are of course encouraged.
    • Bidders must have the Arkoins in their possession as spot checks will be made by Arkadia Studios/Mindark
  • To avoid potential confusion, all bidders must ensure that their full in-game avatar name is visible by stating it in the actual bid post with the amount of Arkoins that they are bidding with

Competition Red Released Weekend Special – 24th April 2015

Attention Arkadians

This weekend the Smugglers will appear across Arkadia and will bring with them more firepower than ever before. We call upon members of the IFN to intercept them in all their actions and DO NOT fall for any of their bribes and sweet talks.

Ned Kelly will make appearances across the planet trying to bribe all members of the IFN and the local community. We highly recommend that you do not fall prey to his notions of good faith as it is only a small piece of a greater plan.

We are proud to stand against the Smugglers as a whole and we wish all members to shine up their best gear, load their weapons and get ready for a massive Smuggler onslaught.

Aakas Instances Opened

By | Anouncement | No Comments

bert-jpg

Its been a long time but I am happy to report that the Aakas instances are once again open.

There is a small change to the requirements for accessing the Aakas instances.Arkadian Keys will no longer be directly used in accessing the Aakas instances. Instead the Arkadian Keys need to be converted to Arkadian Mini Keys @ Bert Wilhelm located inside the Aakas chamber. The Arkadian Keys need to be full TT value in order to convert them.

The Arkadian key will be converted to a 1 PEC Arkadian Mini Key used to access the instance doors and the remainder of the Arkadian Key value will be returned as Universal Ammo. There is also a random chance of getting something extra when doing the conversion

all time high

$20,000 Loot Found On Arkadia

By | Anouncement | No Comments

ATH

Singapore – 8/3/2014 - Planet Arkadia, a virtual treasure hunting themed planet in the Entropia Universe, announced today several players were rewarded with the second largest hunting loot in Entropian history while defending the new Underground region against the threat of the Smuggler movement.

In the game players were introduced to the illegal movement dubbed “The Smugglers” and were requested by the Arkadian Colonial Administration (ACA) to protect the Arkadian Underground from being plundered and pillaged. Colonists from across the Entropia Universe came together as one to stand and fight.  They were greeted with an outstanding loot of $19,473 that will be part of an All Time High (ATH) that is recorded in a database and will be highly visible for all players.  The winner’s names will go down in history as the defenders of Planet Arkadia and as pioneers of Entropia Universe.

Each player walked away with nothing less than $500 of value in loot after they destroyed a “Smuggler Droid MK2″, a nasty form of technology constructed by the Smugglers to gather information and destroy anything with which it comes into contact.

“Planet Arkadia is a vibrant and growing economy within the Entropia Universe and we are pleased to see the rewards earned for players who were having loads of fun as usual in this event” said David Dobson Managing Director of Planet Arkadia Pte Ltd.

On March 26, 2014 Planet Arkadia announced the offering of Arkadia Underground Deeds, which will make up the world’s first $1,000,000 virtual property. Arkadia Underground gives all players a unique opportunity to participate in virtual land investment within Entropia Universe allowing players to share in the revenues of Arkadia Underground and receive dividends on a daily basis.

This innovative offering by Planet Arkadia enables players to participate in up to 200,000 deeds that have been priced at only 50 PED (or $5.00) per deed in direct response to player demand for more opportunities to invest at a lower entry price. The Real Cash Economy has been developed over a 10 year period providing a solid foundation for the virtual economy as all in-game currency ‘PEDs’ are transferable to US$ at a fixed rate of 10 PED for each dollar, unchanged for over 10 years. Importantly, participants are able to withdraw their earnings back to their real life bank accounts at any time.

Entropia Universe is the world’s largest Massively Multiplayer Online Real Cash Economy (MMORCE) game. Players have no monthly fees, but deposit and withdraw real funds to enjoy their adventures on any planet in the Entropia Universe. To download the free game please visit www.planetarkadia.com.
