PoE sink

rdfs:comment

A PoE sink is the term given to any part of the game that decreases the amount of PoE (Pieces of Eight) in the ocean's economy, rather than having them pass from one player to another. Without PoE sinks, the economy would experience a significant amount of inflation as time goes by. Without effective ways of reducing the number of Pieces of Eight, with PoE fountains increasing the amount of currency running around in the system, the value of the PoE would decrease. Some examples of PoE sinks:

A PoE sink is the term given to any part of the game that decreases the amount of PoE (Pieces of Eight) in the ocean's economy, rather than having them pass from one player to another. Without PoE sinks, the economy would experience a significant amount of inflation as time goes by. Without effective ways of reducing the number of Pieces of Eight, with PoE fountains increasing the amount of currency running around in the system, the value of the PoE would decrease. PoE sinks should not be confused with commodity sinks - a hat that decays does not decrease the amount of PoE in the game except indirectly through taxes, if a replacement is bought. Some examples of PoE sinks: * Sales taxes paid when purchasing items from a shoppe or stall. * War chests (note that if a defender wins, they get a portion of all war chests for a blockade) * Brigands taking PoE from your ship in combat. * Taxes on selling doubloons. * Fees paid for market bidding. * Charts bought from shipyards. * Familiar auctions, and fees for special Ocean Master or Ringer services. * Booty removed by the black ship. * Buying commodities from merchants. * Buying any type of housing. * Buying gems from a commodities market. * Buying ships from Ringer owned shipyards or palace shoppes. (new oceans only) * Buying cannon balls from Ringer owned palaces via the commodities market. (new oceans only) * Buying portraits using an easel. * Buying trinkets or pets from the palace shoppe. * PoE belonging to deleted pirates. * Throwing a party. * Ships abandoned at sea.[1] * Paying NPPs and wagers lost to NPPs
