Yea Oldman hasn’t done anything but I do think it’s fair since you are the clan boss that geta held you responsible for your guys behavior as well. Defintely need to keep them under control, he’s hit 3 clans now and everyone knows darkness kills everything that contacts them, maybe you should ask him to behave or kick him from your clan if he won’t stop hitting different clans. He hit Nitell 7 times straight and we were netting with no war set up at all. Very rude of him imo.

Now that trouble maker with up in smoke is hitting darkness, isn’t their retal policy basically war for anything at all retal of not, even a spy op people say. This should be fun to watch.

Okay real newbie question, I been adding my weapon tech to the 1.5 PS bonus and multiplying my raw numbers by a single figure. Seems to work most of the time, but is the 1.5 bonus applied to already tech boosted off or raw numbers alongside it?

For example, say my weapons tech is 30%, I multiply my raw numbers by 1.8 in a PS. Should I multiply raw offence by 1.3 first, then 1.5?

Don’t forget to add 10 percent extra just to be safe otherwise you will bounce sometimes it seems like randomly almost. I’ve been sure I sent enough and bounced until I started sending extra.

Yes maybe 60 is pushing it, I just thought if guys have hit 50 mil on 2k turns then maybe a higher score can be done on express, it seems easier imo because you can run your tech up so much easier early. The landgrabs would be the issue but in a perfect set, mr titanium hit 27 mil last set and he said that was his first game in 10+ years, he came back for a reunion so if 27 mil is him playing rusty then maybe someone like
Him or tmac could do it

I agree with rotating sets every other one that seems fair since everyone is split. Also there were three rep cashers that made top ten last set without the bots and one of those cashers was also the country with the highest war stats so by no means the limit of a no bot casher. I’m sure I can do 30 mil and tmac hit 50 mil on 2k turns in tourney, seems even easier here I bet 60 can be broken by a good player, imo casher is viable even if some other strat is better.

The addition of bots made strategies not called INDY or Techer capable of competing.

There wasn't war last reset. There was big indy's farming ppl that had stopped playing, and suicider's upset over being grabbed once or twice. I grabbed 7k acres plus buildings. And i only beat the all x farmers because they bloated on too much tech, Their cashflow was higher. This just feels like a fast version of tourney. a few grabs, a few retals, a lot of exploring. g=)

That was a lot of fun too, the Wild West days with multis everywhere and market swings. Very fun times, we need a wild west server like that where it’s like primary but anything goes. This server would be fun to do that on.

I like it with the bots and without the bots. The market is a problem so people are going to have to tweak their strategies to compensate. I bet a casher can finish top ten this set.

That’s most likely your problem, should contact the mods and give them a heads up if you are going to be sharing IP’s just to be safe if you don’t want a purple country. Sucks, but in the old days of earth there were really big problems with people cheating by running multiple countries so this precaution was implemented to prevent that kind of behavior.

There could be off sets like the one in express that a reasonably well played techer got 103m NW or something just because the tech prices were extreme that round. Because of no bots the market is quite variable on team, so it could happen here as well for sure.
I have not seen it tho.

Aside from that the really well played countries topped out at something like 75-85m NW maybe with some slight variation unless they had FA, tech leech or landfarm(s).

To add to this, if you look a few sets back I was running a theo casher and seeing if I could gain an advantage by pushing tech prices as high as possible.

I didn’t finish very well but that round getafix ran a theo (techer I think) and got 80+ mil which I’m assuming my antics didn’t hurt.

I went to make a joke about that being why you type in all caps but I will refrain. Here’s to hoping you get better and hopefully a miracle or advancement in science comes your way soon. One can
hope that we will be the last generation to have to deal with sickness with the recent advances coming soon fast nowadays maybe just maybe we will get to live to see that.

Here is an example: https://web.archive.org/.../e1.swirve.com/top100.cgi

There are currently 18,364 players in game A.

Are there any other old archives? I was wanting to take a look at old clans but haven’t seen any. It would be a shame for them to be lost to time so quickly. This place needs a hall of fame for the best countries/players in different categories. Maybe take a vote among the players to see who is the most (category) like warmongers, netters, etc. it’s a shame that was never done in the old days either, I’m sure some players would enjoy being able to look through the games history and know who ran countries like evil war machine for instance. The great ones.

Here he is the VERY next set.... gets killed doing the EXACT same thing

Some people do think what’s happening in Ukraine is the beginning of Gog Magog. *If* they are right then we are possibly headed for nuclear catastrophe with Russia or Iran. Didn’t they just announce a few days ago they are ready or capable of making a nuke now? Hmm...

I was wondering that myself. The one you had the prior set I was thinking that about. Curious what you could have got if you had stockpiled for NW.

I like the war server idea as well, seems there is at least some common ground everyone agrees on here.

Galleri: the reason the netters complain is because on express it is extremely hard to built a country like that. It takes an entire day basically and it takes very little time to wreck it. On tournament we only spend 10 minutes a day so it’s not as much of a gut punch as spending an entire day to get that same outcome.

It’s the time committed (I think) that’s getting people triggered and that’s a great point.

Superfly does make a fair point, but the netters who don’t want to war also make a fair point. I actually thought tourney was better for war though since no GDI. I was suicided with spy ops two sets back there and it seems easier to knock people down a level there as well.
