Commodities Exchange

From Ancient Anguish Mud Wiki - AAwiki

Overview

The Commodities Exchange (more commonly called CX) is located in Tantallon 2e, s, w from the crossroads. You can get money and experience by helping with package deliveries. It is open from 6:00 am to 9:00 pm game time. (Type 'time' to see the current time in-game.)

You can make approximately 3000 coins each game day (4 real-life hours) running CX. When you get close to 3000, Lou cuts you off until the next day.

Getting Started

Lou will not give you any delivery jobs until you 'read rules' which explain how the CX works. You can then attempt to 'accept' the current job. He will initially refuse, but keep trying to accept the easier deliveries (to locations within Tantallon; see list below) and eventually he'll give in.

Go to the specified area and 'deliver' the package - do NOT give it to an NPC.

Pembrook, in the room below Lou, offers slightly more lucrative jobs, but you need to work your way up to these by doing several easy deliveries with Lou first.

If you fail to deliver the job you've accepted both Pembrook or Lou will get angry at you and not give you any more jobs ! Don't despair, you just need to start again from scratch (asking for the easiest, lowest paying jobs) making sure not to ask for the same job after you've been denied once. After a while of this he will let you take the easy jobs once again.
