Does Anyone Know What Will Happen To My Progress If I Delete R1999? I've Been Trying To Update The Game,

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

can you tell who captivated me who my favourite character is

I am calling everyone in the r1999 community to check this out because it's the perfect thing to add to that playlist you use to make fanarts, write fanfics or imagine cool amvs in your head.

Sharpodonties, Currency Exchange, and How Much Money Vertin Can Actually Make

Honestly looking at some of the richer character's belongings I think about how rich Vertin must be.

It takes around 180 Clear Drops to have one pull. I heard some players having 100 pulls or the regulars having around 30-40 pulls. This means Vertin at some points can have 6 of Isolde's designer jewels or multiple copies of designer shoes.

The evaluation of their prices are based on Pandora Wilson's biases since Pavia's jewelry has gotten a negative value status (which I find improbable in real life objects).

The valuation of the objects are a little bit more unreliable because the characteristics of money is that it is:

Uniform (5 pesos is 5 pesos, 1 dollar is 1 dollar regardless of person)

Value (it is seen as a transfer of value) (This replaced barter since barter requires the "coincidence of wants" which means Person A wants what Person B has and vice versa. This doesn't always happen, thus the need of a universal transfer of value: currency)

Portability (can carried around)

Durability (not perishable)

So what currencies do we have in Reverse 1999? Well it seems that we have: Clear Drops and Sharpodonties.

Dust is not a currency since it is a transfer of energy NOT a transfer of value. So it is more like a power up snack. It seems to be a gatherable resource from arcane energy.

(Does it have anything to do with Apeiron?)

Anyways, back to the two currencies, it is clear that Clear Drops are considered more valuable than Sharpodonties. It might have something to do with the storm since it's shape seems to be going up. At the same time, it appears to be like crystal...so like gold currency perhaps?

Sharpodonties, in the other hand, are the more commonly mentioned, used, and exchanged currency.

It seems to be a universal and exclusive arcanist currency that is used by arcanists around the world.

For example, Zima (Russian) and Kanjira (Indian) both use Sharpodonties.

It seems like it wasn't always this appearance since Sharpodonties underwent currency evolution like other currencies do. In Melania's event, she was in charge of protecting the Mainedonty.

The Donty currency family have a collective characteristic to bite and to sense arcane blood. The Sharpodonty then becomes a perfect currency for exclusive use by Arcanists. It is portable, valued, durable, and assumes a uniform form. Surprisingly enough, it is also...edible.

If we look into some stories, you would see that Sharpodonties are listed amongst ledgers.

In Medpoc's 2nd story, it is basically a ledger of their expenses:

Pioneer, who is a businessman, also seems to use US Dollars and Sharpodonties at the same time for transactions.

Now the question is: What is the exchange rate between a US Dollar and a Sharpodonty?

It is not always clear because we have to account for inflation, supply and demand, and other factors. But I have a clue.

Looking back at Medicine Pocket's ledgers, they listed different items that they purchased with Sharpodonties. Let us use DOG TOYS as an example using this example from real life:

Given:

$ 3.30 per 1 teething dog toy (real life)

o 40 per 15 dog toys (Medpoc)

Question: What is the exchange rate between US Dollars and Sharpodonties?

Let's determine the price of the dog toy in the 1990s.

We can reasonably assume that the exchange rate between Arcanist currency and dollars will change depending on the state of US currency. Using equivalent exchange, I determined that the price of a teething dog toy is $1.36 dollars per dog toy in the 1990s.

2. Find the rate of Sharpodonties per dog toy.

This will help both currencies have a comparable object to compare prices to. Let us summarize Sharpodonties into an abbreviation called ACS (Arcanist Sharpodonty) using the same naming convention used in real life currencies. 1 dog toy is equivalent to 2.67 ACS or 1.36 USD.

3. Find exchange rate.

Using equivalent exchange again, we can determine that the exhange rate between ACS and USD is:

1 ACS = 0.51 USD in the 1990s(forgive my error, the exchange rate from 1 USD to ACS is 1 USD = 1.96 ACS NOT the other way around)

If we are to consider that Arcanist currency hasn't deflated in value but USD has, then the current exchange rate as of 2024 will be:

1 ACS = 1.23 USD or 1 USD = 0.81 ACS (0.80909091) which means that ACS has become a more valuable currency.

I converted the ACS to other modern day currencies of Russia and Great Britain.

That means that Zima's quill costs around 758.85 Russian Rubles today and Kanjira's headband costs around 73.17 Indian Rupees.

Digger's Bubble Glasses will then be around 65.05 British Pounds. Feel free to use this chart for converting the price of items that the characters have.

I didn't account for Clear Drops since 1) it is not an often used currency, 2) I have not seen a general (not handcrafted or unique item) item that I can compare to a real life item.

What does this mean when it comes to Vertin's income? She earns 9000 ACS everytime she goes to Mintage Aesthetics. This means she earns around 11,070 Dollars for each trip. She also has passive income. If she uses all her energy (let's say 7 times a day to account for 190 stamina) each day, she earns around $77,490 each day or around $2,324,700 a month. Of course, we are not accounting the passive income that she can earn from the Wilderness or from rewards or gifts.

In conclusion, Vertin and her gang are easily rolling in dough!

I really healed in seconds guys, I'm mentally balanced and stable again

Thanks for bluepoch ❤️‍🩹 you've fulfilled a lifelong dream

:>

I adore rarepairs lol o7

MedPoc: ...I mean. Yeah, I'm happy for ya or whatever but. Vertin??

Mesmer: No offence. But you haven't dated anyone. Get real.

Vertin is the cure for Mesmer's anxiety, in a cute way.

Much like the colour for green in French, Vert, she makes Mesmer sick /aff

You might be the reason I start liking rare pairs...

What's up with the MedPoc hate Mesmer? Nahhh

This could go the other way too actually

Lilya: heh, I'm glad you're back in the dating department, Vertin. But... Mesmer Jr? Really?

Vertin: She's actually a really nice person

Lilya: Mesmer Jr?

WIP ↓

Hi.

I just reread the first chapter and wanted to draw them talking or something. I wasn't sure about the lighting and the atmosphere, so I make it blurry and foggy to hide my mistakes.

Btw I didn't tell anyone that I went hiatus (again) because I didn't know that I'd go hiatus.

I'm still socially inactive but at least I'm drawing again.

Also I've started watermarking my art. I didn't like adding my name on my art because I thought it would only stay on my accounts anyway, so there's no need for people to look up my name.

It just feels weird having my work shared in places I can't control. idk. It's not a big deal but eehh..

Anyway I'm off see you guys in 6 months jkjkunless

Based on this post

reading these analysis posts on vertin's relationships with others and both the O.P.'s getting it right and its got me like

If the suppression of emotions and memories can cause memory loss, then there's a slight possibility that it may be one of the reasons why Urd can barely remember. We're not sure yet what Urd has truly gone through but I don't think being Reversed and braving the storm and surviving all the same can lead to anything good and her past is still a mystery to be uncovered.

So possibly it's not just because of the side effects of surviving the storm but also suppressing memories and deep emotions of what she'd gone through is the cause of her amnesiac state. It's an interesting thought to say the least.

Also this implies that there's a slight chance of Vertin slowly losing her memories due to blocking and suppressing strong emotions. Which could not only deal some good heavy angst but also parallel Urd's own if she truly is her mother.
