Ok. I'm insisting on something. We have a neutrel space station run to facilitate peace and trade. We have diplomats, intrigues, and even aliens in encounter suits.

We HAVE ABSOLUTELY GOT TO NAME THIS PLACE.... BABYLON 5!!!!!!

Wait, I just caught something. Don't Tholians remind you of Shadows? At least, the "light sided" shadows.

In that case the member shall take in return for its exports an amount of imports equal to but not exceeding the amount of exports from all other members combined. The excess trade from that member will then be apportioned in a proportional manner to the volume of trade provided by other members. Thus if a member was responsible for 20% of the trade brought to the station they would be entitled to that amount in return, plus 20% of any excess.
erm, can I have that in simpler terms please. :confused:

Essentially everyone gets back what they put in unless someone bring in more than 50% of the total trade.

If you ship out 7 million then you get 7 million back.

The apportionment would only change if someone provides more than 50% because then they would be hauling their own crap to the station and back to get a match. If someone chooses to do that they could get still send extra exports there but they would not get matching imports in return. Whatever of theirs cannot be matched gets divided up among the other powers trading there.

B5 was the inspiration for the idea.
In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Given that a mouth watering prospect is good, i would surmise that they aren't interested.
