Its 4 weeks until I start university and money is tight for myself.
Im now sitting here thinking to myself, what can I do to make myself more money except for working more hours.
Im thinking I may have to sell my IK account to raise university funds. I also don't know if im going to be able to give full commitment to IK once i start university.
This is not a certain thing as of yet, but I start university in 4 weeks. What are the rules about selling etc.
At the moment I see no other way on making funds for myself except for selling my beloved IK account.
Input is appreciated.
-cheese

You could always try selling individual isles, or cats/stoners.

It's never fun to see one of your own sell their account, especially if it goes to someone outside of the alliance we aren't allied with. I suggest holding onto it. If it becomes that much of a hassle during uni, then consider your options. Possibly co-play. The money you will get will go quickly and then you'll be left with no IK. A world without inselkampf, well thats hardly a world at all.

lol Cheese, you'll have plenty of time. Trust me. Sometimes when I'm in a lecture I bring my laptop and play IK or read these forums while my prof is talking. Yup... I suggest you hold on to it and see how the first semester treats you. If you hold on to it longer, you will probably be able to make more money from it in the future (if you decide to sell it).

There is no restrictions in selling if it's announced beforehand.

But it is easy to hold the account with little trouble logging in once a week etc...
Money you just would spend buying cheese and beer...

"Cheese and Beer" A great way to sum up university.
What subject are you studying? At what uni if you don't mind me asking. It would be a shame to lose you from KoM.

I guess now you've notified us that you might be selling up just tell us when it's done and we'll let you off the hook On the other I had more time for IK at university, even with all the lectures, new friends and going out getting drunk. If anything my later sleeping helped me grow faster... in the couple of months after this server came out I was always in the top 20~30 somtimes even alot higher. All that was because I was only ever tied up for an hour or so during the day for the 'occasional' lecture (I had maybe 16 a week).

I agree at Uni I could stay up to 3am which was enough to find out whether colo attempts had landed on new isles. Now I'm barely up past 12 so I don't even check for unowned isles.

I made it through 4 years of undergrad working 40 hours a week, drinking my Culo! off, and spending alot of time with my former girlfriend. I still had time for all sorts of hobbies. Don't let the stereotype intimidate you. Only the biology and engineering students actually had to spend considerable sums of time studying and showing up to class
