No, they weren't. Neither was complete, go ahead and watch the movies again if you don't believe me. They were operational, huge difference. And the Rebels had the means to find out before both before they were complete.
On the allegations of meta-gaming, I never requested I just know about the Death Star, I asked if it would be possible for us to find out about it, just as the rebels had the means to do so in the movies. Building a death star requires millions if not billions of tons of resources, materials and components, not to mention thousands of construction workers, technicians and everyone else involved in its construction. And it would be appreciated if you left out the vulgarity, there's no need for it.
I'm not asking to be able to automatically know about it and instantly destroy it, I'm asking that at some point of the next six months, spies come across information on the battle station (like the information that was on the Tantive IV (the whole reason Vader boarder Leia's ship and captured her) and we get the chance to attack, the Empire can obviously defend it with the entirety of their fleet. That's all I'm asking for, a chance to destroy the planet destroying battle station.
Keeping in mind he appears to be getting this For Free, the least he should have to do is protect it.

The rebels didn't know about Death Star One until it was finished, and yes Death Star one was complete, go watch the movies again particularly the scene where Lord Vader strangles the guy for stating it was in comparison to the Force in Power.
As for Death Star Two it took many Bothan Spies lives to find out about it, in case you don't understand what that means, be prepared to start throwing lives at the thing in order to find anything out because other wise word isn't getting out. Besides its not like it matters if it blows up a planet or two I mean hell it's not like there weren't atleast 20 others per letter in the alphabet we didn't list here. Besides Alderaan is on the top of the list as I recall it got blowed up real good.

It was 95% finished i recall my crazy uncle who nows star wars like the back of his hand read in a book. Also it was more finished then death star two. There is no way for use to find out (Jedi/Rebels) unless we throw are lives away to find out.

So you know it wasn't finished, because staffs stance on it so far is that both were finished and kept secret until then. Both of which is untrue.
And I'm aware that some spies won't make it back home, I'm fine with that.

The fact of the matter is we're keeping it secret as until they spend 100 Mil on it, they wont have it or it's got a sixth month timer on it. And one was finished one was not. However my ruling on the issue is final.
The Death Star will remain a secret unless a vote to change it to something destroyable is possible. But as such we can recruit massive armies in a few minutes by buying them, and they can do the same thing. Believe it or not there are things that can beat a Death Star for fire power, it's just a matter of finding them.

To clarify on this, after the six months do they still owe the 100 million, or is it a case of paying 100 million to get it now but it's free after 6 months?

Its pay to get now, or wait. As far as I am aware.

Yea, that was my reading too, but how does that make sense? Is there some sort of giant space lottery in 6 months with the winner pre-chosen?

Yes, actually. It's called the Star-4 Lotto, and it's held once every four years. The people who run the event are known as "admins" and "moderators" and they are often 2-4 in number, in total. They will choose a single faction to get a super-powerful weapon, called a Death Star. This is the first time the event has run here.

No the way it went down was "The Empire was building a Death Star before our plot change to make the RP. That wouldn't have changed with Palpatine's death...so guess they're still building it."
And yes it's free after 6 months supposing say the Empire hasn't been completely destroyed by that time. Or they can pay 100 Million Credits for express workers and get it on the spot.
