A revival of the locked thread. You can either start over, or come back where you left off. I will keep track of quarter results, as well as the companies taking part.
This is a roleplaying game in which the players create and run car brands. The objective is to grow your small firm into a global power. The game uses a credit system for players to earn and spend currency. You will start with 10,000 credits (cr) to get your company started. A listing of various expenditures is below for players to refer to. All players will be required to post a listing of their finances at the end of each in-game year. The system isn't as technical as it sounds, so get started and have fun!
Rules
Breaking a rule the first time will be forgiven. If you break a rule after that, it will be a 1,000cr penalty, which doubles after each offense.
1. Use common sense- you are running a car company.
2. Be polite to other players.
3. Always post your finances at the end of every year; your profits and your costs. Failure to do so within a week will result in an exclusion from the profit report of the next quarter.
4. No secrecy- while it may be realistic, I fear it will cause chaos.
5. Stay Active- Any player who hasn't posted in 2 months or more will have their company removed from the game, or purchased by another player's company at auction. (See below).
6. Up to 12 Players Allowed- One of the fates the original game has suffered was an over saturation of players. I will keep track of how many players there are. If one quits, another can sign up.

Time System
The game runs on a system of 1 quarter (3 months) per IRL three days.. The quarter will change at unspecified time, EST. The current date is Quarter 1, 2014.

Profits
Of course, you have to make money to spend it. At this point the profits of your company will be determined by me, based on your models, factories, locations, and dealerships. A top-secret superformula determines quarterly profit. The first profit result occurs the following quarter after a company is founded, or if any change occurs. The formula uses randomly generated numbers, so don't bother trying to figure it out.
---
Car Shows
Each quarter, a car show occurs somewhere in the world. Geneva happens in Q1, the Goodwood Festival of Speed in Q2, Pebble Beach in Q3, and Detroit in Q4. It costs 100cr to enter a car show, and 50cr for each model a brand wants to showcase. Entering a car in a show will increase the likelihood of it winning an award and a subsequent credit bonus.
---
Auctions
Whenever two weeks passes without a player posting, his/her company will be auctioned to other players at a starting price of 1,500cr. The auction proceeds automatically, and ends when three hours pass after the last bid. All credits, dealerships, factories, and developed technology will go to the highest bidder.
