Hm. Intriguing enough I'll answer this one...
Well, according to this:
http://finance.yahoo.com/echarts?s=036570.KS+Interactive#symbol=036570.ks;range=1y;compare=;indicator=volume;charttype=area;crosshair=on;ohlcvalues=0;logscale=off;source=undefined;If you take the Market Cap in Billions KRW and divide it by (the sale price/1000), you'll get about 20 million shares that are on the market. Last check, 4171.48 / (210,500 / 1000)=19.8 million and change.
So, if every CoH account *ever* bought a share, then that'd be... what... 1 million?
You are so outvoted. And I kind of doubt you'd have that many buy, AND that all were single people accounts, and not one person, multiple accounts, which was done pretty frequently.
As it is, the current core is somewhere about 100,000 accounts? Maybe?
So.
Outvoted.
Oh, and each share is worth (as of this typing, where the Korean market is movin' it up and down a lot... mostly down as it happens today..) about 190 dollars. And that's not including whatever fees are involved in the purchase of just the one share. And the only way you get a voting kind of the shares is to have *a lot of them*. A major enough holding. By one entity. Not thousands. Oh, sure, if we all has a share, we'd get a vote... depending on how that all works in the first place... but seriously, it's just not gonna work out.
And that's assuming the same rules apply as listed here:
http://www.investorguide.com/article/11166/stock-classes-the-difference-between-common-stock-and-preferred-stock/AND the stock in question is the common kind, not preferred.
I admire the idea, of course, but the logistics are what they are. A nuisance at best for the NCSoft Brass. No, what'd be needed is to get someone with, oh, $19,404,915.50 to buy 51% of the stock value, and then FORCE NCSoft to do it *their* way. As of this writing, stock price, and USD to KRW exchange rate.
I don't happen to have that much, though.
