[align=center]“Distributed throughout back alleys and dive bars all over Eorzea, simple cards and flyers for ‘The Golden Gil Casino & Resort’ can be found in growing frequency. Hidden somewhere in the Mists, the Golden Gil offers high stakes gambling, entertainment and other less than legal fare. ‘Jobs available!’ reads in large print, from dealers, to servers and performers. Rumor has it that more information can be found in Plot 43 of the 11th Ward of the Mists, ‘Sylastair’s Halfway Home for Wayward Boys’.”[/align]

OOC:

“So What Is This?”

The Golden Gil Casino and Resort is a new RP establishment that seeks to combine sleeziness glamour off a Las Vegas casino with the subterfuge and fun of a speak-easy. With various games of chance, drinks and drugs the Golden Gil offers characters a place to feel like a big spender, desperate gambler or both!

“Is All of This Using Real Gil?”

Yes it is! While the entrance fee, drinks and drugs will all be IC every table game will use actual gil, meaning players have a chance to get lucky and win it big! (So please tip your waitresses and dealers).

“So When is This Place Opening?”

If enough bodies are found to get the games running and keep people drunk and happy, the tentative grand opening is September 7th. That though is subject to change as interest is worked out and good people to help out are found!

“So Is the Golden Gil Hiring?”

We are! We currently have a LS that I’ll be giving out to those who want to work at the Golden Gil for it’s Monthly events, but no Free Company commitment is required. If you're interested and want to get involved, contact Sylastair Wolfhart here, on Tumblr or in game! Open positions include:

 

 

1. Dealers
    
    
   
2. Servers
    
    
   
3. Bar Staff
    
    
   
4. Performers
    
   

“How Much Does the Casino Take Off the Top?” 

 

Nothing! No, seriously. While ICly it is assumed money taken in will be used to keep the place running, any gil made by casino personnel goes to pay servers, dealers and those who become part of the team! A nice little excel spreadsheet will be kept updated with funds made for a little added clarity as well.

“Does any of this go against the ToS?”

Actually it does not! While some of the information in the User Agreement seems hard to decipher, a post by GMs on the topic HERE clarifies the matter. To pull the sum it up:

 

“Casinos, while diverse, are ultimately trade agreements handled and resolved entirely within the game at the time of the agreement. When mentioning that it is handled entirely within the game, this covers all aspects of the exchange, including the use of the in game /random command. By remaining within the game, all the details of the exchange can be verified and held as equal for everyone.” 

 

 

“What’s the difference between the ‘Halfway House’ and the Golden Gil?”

Not too much! The halfway house serves as a cover for gambling, proper taxes and the sale of illicit substances! Those who asked around enough and in the right channels could work out that the halfway house is just that, a cover for the Golden Gil Casino.
