Demand: Playpit

Oh, hey, this blueprint was stuck between two file drawers. Blue plastic “ocean”... cargo netting… plank… seems reasonable! Who submitted these again?

Imagine if every ball in a ballpit could roll itself magneto-mechanically and had simple swarming AI.

Brilliant!  But this really fits better in my zone.  I bid 80000.

I bid 10,000 until I have enough proposal slots to fix this hole in the rules.

I suppose wooden-effect balls would also be fine. That’s why the blueprint mentions planks. This was definitely my submission, you know. I bid 2000.

But you’re forgetting about the plastic. Thus I bid 1900.

The planks hide the plastic. I bid 1875.

I’m guessing that the file drawers were aligned NS, not EW, as would be appropriate for something in your zone.  I bid 1775

If people really want the blue plastic ocean, I can work with that. I bid 1750.

Closing this, I get it for 1750.
