    Hello EcoCityCraft, I am Steveshizzle, ECC president, businessman, investor, and the lesser-known third member of Daft Punk (in spirit at least). I've been making a bit of money lately and I've decided to redistribute some of it but only to worthy players. As a former member of ECC's Dragon's Den, I attempted to resurrect the group, however none of the other previous members responded to my tags and such, so I've decided to start the group up myself.

    Shark Tank is the American version of Dragon's Den, a tv show in which entrepreneurs go to very wealthy and lucrative business owners in hopes of getting a profitable investment for their company or start-up.
    If you'd like to see what it entails more, here is a link to a recent (and perhaps a little explicit) episode: http://abc.go.com/shows/shark-tank/...519-revolights-squeeky-knees-buffer-bit-ulace

    That aside, I'll be needing other members to act as Sharks. The only main requirement is to have a balance above 150k that you can maintain for a decent amount of time (no lottoing it all off at once). I've gone ahead and prepared an application if you're interested:​
    Shark Application

    IGN:
    Do you have the minimum balance required?:
    What time zone are you in?:
    Why do you want to be a Shark?:
    Have you watched Shark Tank or Dragon's Den before and are you familiar with how it works?:
    If you are stranded on a deserted island and could only bring one type of sandwich, what would you bring?:

    Current Sharks
    Chargers2417
    Steveshizzle
    Cardinal3
    Falconaire
    Gazinggod
    Lapkingkn

    If you have an idea for something or need help funding a project and want an investment, feel free to file a presenter application below. As a presenter, you will come and present your case in front of the Sharks, give them an asked investment amount as well as an asked equity percentage.
    NOTE: All presentations will now be held via forum conversation. Please start the conversation with me or any of the sharks and title it, "[Presentation] <playername>"

    Welcome chargers2417 to the Shark Tank! I'll likely be accepting around 6-8 applicants just so I have enough so if anyone still wants to apply, the door's wide open.

    @Falconaire I'm sure you'd like to be a part of this.

    Still several openings for Shark status as well as presenters, be sure to apply!

    I'd be interested in applying for a Shark position. I only have 105k though, can I still apply or should I wait until I have the full 150k?

    That's just a rough number, besides I've seen how fast you make money anyways. You can go ahead and apply now if you want.
    This is by far the greatest application I've ever seen. Welcome to the tank.

    One question the equity. Does it come from all profits or just those from the said idea?

    Sorry for the late reply, the equity will come directly from profits made from that single idea or project. Think of it like the sharks are buying a percentage of your company, and therefore earn revenue on sales made.

    No problem. When will I present? Will it be in game or over the forums?

    It will be ingame as soon as I get enough sharks and a location to present at. I'll tag presenters and let them know when they can present and to whom.

    If possible I would rather present via forum conversation. That way I can use pictures and present to everyone.
