>Why oh why are people still dumping magic nubs off the market
because that's where they can be sold to other builders, or stored til the owner wants to build.
>some people price nubs slightly higher as they want to save them to build with. I don't understand why people think they have the right to do this
why do they have the right? because they can.
>what a waste
it is not a waste to store nubs on the market, as i just explained people put them there to either sell to others or store til they're ready to build. the waste only occurs if you put on more nubs to store than your house will hold, in case they do get bumped. but the majority of people who store have so much house space that no nubs will get lost even if the nubs are bumped.
>its a good [thing] there are to many nubs when people have to do silly things like this.
well, as i've explained, what you described is not silly, but smart. but it is good that we have more than enough nubs, since some unfortunately do get bumped to houses without enough space, or newer characters build a stone, not knowing what it's for, and since it can't be sold, they have to throw it out.
hope those answered your comments/questions. enjoy :)
