I mean this game has serious potential. You could have Vegas bookies betting on winners if it got popular enough. Every nerd on the planet would enjoy getting to face off and see who the biggest nerd of them all is. It’s like a modern version of chess but even better. Mehul was a genius for this concept, I know others had done similar ideas but I think it’s brilliant. I think your guys idea of bots to stabilize the markets was also brilliant.

I know you guys catch a lot of flack for the changes and the bots and everything but my honest experience is that it’s very nice. I think you guys have done a great job with the game design. I think the only thing you are missing at this point is for people to know about the game. Any business people have to know about if they are going to come around and see what it’s all about and I’ve never seen earth talked about anywhere. Which is a shame because it is an incredibly fun game to play.

There firms you can probally pay to do what he did for a fair price and the revenue you guys would generate off The advertising would not only pay for it but probally other things as well. That kid was smart I wish I knew how to get ahold of him, it was inane he had more people coming in than we could keep up with.

No but I may try it. I was looking at it earlier the co op one if that’s what you are talking to.

For the most part the game is fine though the way it is and it’s a lot of fun the way it is. You guys just need advertising and to get on the App Store. You could have thousands of new players within a month.

Nowadays we are the tik tok generation so everyone’s attention spans are 15 seconds and they max out. The App Store is what you guys need. And a few commercials online in the right places.

One time I had this kid playing on my team from Indonesia and I asked him to recruit for us and I don’t know what he did but the number of people coming in was insane. You just need to find the right guy and you guys have a gold mine sitting here.

Alliance is fun but because of all of the old alliances it’s not fun as a new player who doesn’t care about all of that stuff. You basically can’t do anything without getting killed. Easily the least fun server as a new player.

I want to pick up an app when I’m bored and play and set it down when I am done.

What I don’t want to do is have to join groups that demand hours of your time and have to download apps and bots and be a part of groups with so many rules it’s mind numbing. Oh and those rules constantly change any time it’s convenient.

Maybe it’s different for the players who have been here for a long time and have old friends so it’s sentimental, I get it. But as a player who just comes to play and have some fun as a casual; it ruins the fun.

Earth needs advertising and less time investment for casual players.

The game is incredibly fun. The rules and all the extra stuff ruin the fun.

I like that the turns are faster and the rounds end quicker.

If you weren’t deleted then it sounds like you ran Into Skol. Some of the players are very dangerous and if you attack them more then one time it breaks Gdi and they can war you. The super dangerous players can and will kill your country.

If you were jacklar (#85) then it was me that killed you and I did it because you attacked me multiple times.

If you were the other purple country that was deleted then maybe they thought you were coordinating with ratski or maybe you cussed someone out in game messages? People get deleted for that as well so that’s one area to watch.

It’s been awhile since I’ve played but it seems the nerds designed a step by step process to max out their net worth and admins won’t let you challenge their processes.

Or you could just try and play one of the strategies that work like a casher or techer. Go over on the strategy forums and read them. I posted write ups specifically so new players could learn our tricks.

Go look up tech start casher. I think it’s on page one. You can also use that tech start to run a techer and go right into selling tech and growing.

The mods hate me and have literally never deleted me in 20 years playing earth in game. You should just follow the rules. Quit trying to cheat just because the game didn’t go how you like it. Take the loss like a man and take people’s advice on how to build better countries.

Instead you ignore every person who finishes with good countries and get mad when you get wrecked and cheat. It doesn’t make sense. For one single time you should just try a written proven strategy that works and then you could actually fight your enemies. It’s so easy it’s crazy that you refuse to try and listen to the other players about this. Their results don’t lie.

The word you are looking for is altar.

The word you used means:

intransitive verb
1.To change or make different; modify.
"altered my will."
2.To adjust (a garment) for a better fit.
3.To castrate or spay (an animal, such as a cat or a dog).

I know what word I was looking for but thank you for pointing out the typo.

Ha! I would never make a typo. Some people say I am actually the smartest earth player to ever walk the face of the earth, talk about irony.

If I have learned one thing in my time in this community it’s that if anyone says something, it’s safe to assume the exact opposite is true. I’ve never met more people on my entire life that say one thing and then do the opposite. Where I am from peoples word are their bond and lying frowned upon so it took me a while to understand that this community isn’t like that. I get it now and that’s why I talk trash. I realized I was in no good company.

Our scores our pretty close on alliance which I have barely played. 700 m is decent I guess but you have to consider I haven’t really warmed up on this server netting. 1 billion seems easier and I may have hit when LaF killed my big techer that caused me to hit them to begin with ending with the current war with Evo after evo decided to merge with laf the set I was out for revenge. I’m sure I could break 1 billion on this server fairly easily.

It’s strange how all of the people who are mad all have super low scores. I’ve yet to see one of these clowns who can bang.

I noticed turtle crawler also has a crowd of midwits harass him. This must be why most of the netters stay quiet. I think it’s pretty funny personally but let’s not pretend you can win an argument with me.

You literally just brought up a topic (mental health) and then said you don’t care about your own topic when I pointed out you display severe apathy over years, this proving you are apathetic even up to right this very second.

You have literally spent the last 6 years seeking out threads with drama to then go into them and tell them how much you don’t care. Which hey by the way is a strange way to show you don’t care. Either you have apathy and don’t care about any topic known to Man, or you are just a very passive aggressive man who seethes at everyone. Sorry you weren’t capable of deducing my points on your own. Hard to keep up I guess for you. I’ll try and slow it down and dumb it down for you next time

You missed the point of my post, once again proving that you are an insane idiot. You should be kissing EVO azz.

I did play on Primary for a while only to test different builds. Those that know me, know I have never tried to be a top 10 netter. I build war countries as I assume you idiots found out.
Nice to see that you went back ~9 yrs to show that you were a badass but, if you read between the lines, I could hit you anytime I wanted.

You guys laugh but seriously, his tag had enough missiles to cripple the top 10 players, so maybe, just maybe in some pipe dream he had a remote chance of getting top 200.

Exactly. We could have already finished evo off had we wanted to. We showed mercy and that won’t happen again. Josey thought you guys would honor your side and the agreement to stop the war, he knows now what I’ve been dealing with and why I call them a group of dishonorable liars that cannot be trusted to honor their word.

"could have finished off evo"
lol
nope.

Everyone had 50 plus missiles and had just been kind in not launching them. We had considered it but cooler heads had prevailed until you guys took Josey bait trolling you over some of your comments how “this is cool” and “that is cool”

It wasn’t cool when Josey did it messing with you guys and that was obviously his point. Bunch of hypocrites here that say one thing and then later say the exact opposite.

Wrong.

Look, it doesn’t make any difference to me. I’m just an observer at this point. It’s like watch a lab rat experiment.

You killed me because you’re paranoid. As mentioned earlier, you assumed. Then you acted on your assumptions. You said non-harmful spy ops were ok, but obviously they weren’t. Lol.

No big deal. I’m not upset about it. You guys are just psychopaths that ultimately have been able to control how this game runs. There are the rules. Then there are the rules.

New players don’t stand a chance. So why should they waste their time? All the tweaked policies/rules favor larger, top heavy inbred clans like sol.

Can any of you, with any certainty, confirm that EE has had any significant increase in new players? Please… thrill me with some good news.

Even the PhDs in sol surely see the end of the line.

When was the last time you guys had more than 5 players sign up?

So yeah…. New Blood is in short supply.

It’s disappointing because EE is a cool game just steadily becoming unplayable. It is what it is.

Bingo. Couldn’t have said it better myself. Before I came it was gerdler they hated. They do this to any new people that come and run them off. Meanwhile the mods cannot figure out why new players aren’t coming. It’s pretty obvious it’s the regulars here.

I imagine a lot of people here think this but just don’t say it. You can see how controlling they are wanting to ban and silence everyone.

They come into our threads and try and control the narrative with lies and then want to control what we think and say as well.

I’m actually shocked at how controlling they are. It started when I first came with this push to get on discord and all of these weirds apps.

A lot of people seemed to have got upset then and there when we were cautious about getting involved with that crowd. They didn’t seem trustworthy.

Me and Josey were proven right too because after we didn’t sign up they became abusive claiming we were scared of the government or some crazy stuff because we didn’t want to associate with them lmao

The lies and seeking to control other people here is crazy. Little mini tyrants for sure.
