Keg of Beer: http://www.torn.com/imarket.php#/p=shop&step=shop&type=&searchname=Keg+of+Beer

So why am I testing this? Well first, for the lulz. No, really, I can't stand seeing a keg of beer sitting in my display case without being able to enjoy a cold brew. Second, I wanted to know the effects. Third, and most importantly, I like beer. Here are a few factors that might affect the performance (I think):

NNB: 35
Total NB: 61 (35 NNB + 6 Merit + 5 Faction + 15 Pub)
Current Booster Cooldown (Thu 21:19:16 - 06/10/16) is 06:03:10.
Job: 10* Pub (Lightweight : 50% bottle of alcohol boost)
Book: The Book : Get Drunk And Lose Dignity EFFECT: Effect: Doubles alcohol effects for 31 days.

I will be editing this post once I have an update. Additionally, I will be using the book once I feel that the effects have been pretty consistent. Ok here we go!

RESULTS SO FAR:

-Glass of Beer seems to provide between 2-4 nerve per use for someone in a 10* pub.
-I'm going to assume this translates to a 1-2 nerve gain per use for a non-pub employee.
-Glass of Beer is Untradable!
-Keg of Beer IS TRADABLE even after using it 20 times!
-One Keg yielded approximately 50x "Glass of Beer" before it was used up completely and dissapeared.
-The result for 50 uses is that the keg is worth around $13.5m for a 7* Pub employee (no Book).
-The result for 50 uses is that the keg is worth around $2.8m for a normal player (no pub, no book).

Ok, new strategy gents! I'm going to use the Keg until it disappears....and record the # of glasses of Beer I get!
Thu 23:24:42 KEG IS EMPTY!

You open the tap on the keg but only a small drip appears. It must be empty!
-In my inventory I have "Glass of Beer x29."
-Approximately yielded 50 beers!

CALCULATING WORTH OF KEG BASED ON 7* PUB:
The average gain for approximately 20 beers was 2.9444 nerve. When calculating the worth of each nerve gain based on the cost of each type of alcohol (2n = $100, 3n = $250k, 4n = $500k)

The result for 50 uses is that the keg is worth around $13.5m

CALCULATING WORTH OF KEG FOR NORMAL PLAYER (NO PUB, NO BOOK):
The average gain for approximately 20 beers was 1.5444 nerve for every beer used (sample of 20). When calculating the worth of each nerve gain based on the cost of each type of alcohol (1n= $700, 2n = $100).

The result for 50 uses is that the keg is worth around $2.8m

The result of using "Glass of Beer x29" with "Book : Get Drunk And Lose Dignity" Effect: Doubles alcohol effects for 31 days.
is in my 2nd post below.

This is the most honest, caring, and dutiful director I have ever met. He treats everyone in the company equally and I really enjoy the company! Consider joining if you want a serious long term company that is like family.

A few pro-tips for a good application:

-Make sure when referring to Ched, you use words like "Your Highness" or "Emperor." That way there is no ambiguity as to who you are referring to.

-Staff is all about how to become a Helper first to learn the ropes. Talk about how you are going to "help" new players find their way to the hospital very quickly after they join the game. Also, encourage them to join a faction on their first day so they can receive expert guidance from caring factions.

-Don't forget to mention your many qualifications that make you the perfect candidate to also be a Moderator. Your high Karma clearly indicates you have dominance over the English language. Also, you give people sensible advice, like the best way to make money in Torn is to just "Borrow max loan of duke and play BJ." I think you were referring to Billy Joel right? [:tongue:]

If I think of any other pro-tips, I will post them here.

Torn Staff, can you rename this event to SCAMwareness week?

Had to keep it PG13 for you Duke, it was the only fans picture I could find from my snowman.

Please add mw to the event

 Thank you!

Stay the course and finish your 10k in a law firm...it will be years but its worth it.

It takes a lot of NPC attacks. I ran my report, and although not all the attacks were for Weapon XP, id say I used 1000 NPC attacks out of about 1200 to build up about 20 weapons to 100%.

The data guy? I think he posted too much and now he is hiding out... https://www.torn.com/profiles.php?XID=2095076

Oh the irony...

This I goood

Great explanation there at the end and I'm glad they are keeping a close eye on the inflation rate. Even with the changes to Stocks 3.0, it seems growth is still manageable. Thanks for the info advert and CRLF. It would be nice to see some wealth "redistribution" by the The_Hamster more often...surely some of his display items can go to some well deserved players :)
