Dear CEOs,

I've been reading all of your suggestions, and since my goal is to make the game as complicated as possible (while maintaining clean code and efficiency), it'll be very rare for me to actually turn down any request.

Only problem is there's a hidden list maintained on my hard drive that basically tells me which part I should code/change next, and currently the top of the list looks like this:
  1. Extend player title system (Owner, CEO, President) based on stock control at daily updates

  2. Change player fame calculations

  3. Mechanism to kill zombie companies

  4. Ability to start 2nd companies, and switch between one and another

  5. Extend company stats to include $$$ owed (loan, dividend, CEO pay, etc.)

  6. Dividend/CEO pay system

  7. Job market - for hiring others to do your work (Hope I'm not being too selfish here)

  8. Finer stock charts and all stocks list

  9. Chart on RJ Index, and a SEC committee to vote on which stocks will go into the RJ Index

Generally I'll take care of all coding issues, but on #3 I'd love to use your contributions. In fact it began with Garry's cold and evil response: "... your company was burnt to the ground by an electrical fire, and insurance sent you a check..."


Here's the contest:

<$company name> has been targeted by The Invisible Hand!
Econosia feared criminal organization, The Invisible Hand, has struck again! <$company_name> has been burnt and many workers are being held hostage. The CEO himself is no where to be found.

<$company name> CEO jailed for collaborating with The Invisible Hand!
<$company_name> CEO has been jailed and his company seized after proof arose of his involvement with The Invisible Hand. This is surely a great blow to the heinous organization.
