    I'd sell the gil, then use the cash to rent out the moms of my 5 least favorite BG posters for a night. I'd plow them like they've never been plowed before on an unholy mountain of empty McDonalds bags and wrappers. I'd hire a chinese gentry to weave a tapestry from the molted pubic hairs of the BG moms.

    Then I'd buy BG out, upload pics of my exploits and scan the pubic tapestry and employ it as the new BG logo.

    I came in this thread with the wrong kind of thinking lol.

    I thought I was going to learn about how to make so much gil doing dynamis that you were literally sitting on half a bil wondering what to do with it.

    In any event, what he actually did aside, I wonder how many people have run multiple dynamises on a regular basis. There's a notorious guy on my server who has run two at the same time. Personally, I didn't find dynamis highly profitable for a run-of-the-mill group, compared to what I could have made by using my time otherwise. On the other hand full-clears are pretty nice. But even nicer than that is perhaps, owning 3 characters and doing 6 dynamis ~full clears a week. Would not be easy to run 3 separate groups but hey, think of the gil (that one could pocket for themselves).

    Splitting dynamis money is the only correct way. Sure, people with relic are going to say otherwise, but they are all freaking lootwhore.
    Per this argument, I'm inclined to agree but forced to disagree. I'm inclined to agree because I know what you mean. Splitting is the way we would like things to happen. I agree with that. But the correct or incorrect thing happening in-practice is a different matter. I ran a dynamis shell and took all the currency as profit. I ended up putting in a 3-weeks notice and leaving eventually because the profit-gained/effort ratio was too low, and I could have done better otherwise. If you were correct about relic-gainers being greedy--this wouldn't have happened. I would have stayed. But given that effort required in leadership, it is 100% correct to gain profit from the fruits of your labor. Look at my thread on leadership problems. You'll see I bring up this very point. That leaders are unrewarded and that it leads to linkshell problems. The dynamis system is different than traditional linkshell systems and this reward for leadership is one of the reasons why prominent dynamis shells have outlasted other kinds of linkshells.

    That, and the members agree to the terms by showing up to runs. If you don't like the fact that your relic-funder is taking all the loot, then leave, or join another linkshell, or make your own linkshell if it's so easy. This is one of those times where "what's fair is what the leader can get away with." The very fact that dynamis members give consent via participation removes any right to complain about currency distribution.

    But that's exactly what he's explained how to do, make a dyna shell, don't suck and you'll profit from it. There's plenty of sheep that will follow you, i'm sure every server has seen retards build shells for their own benefit.
