I remember mr g for years. Still cracks me up. lol coming back after 13 or 15 (off/on) or some fluff and it’s like a drunken family reunion. Glad I came back for a set. Love it.

I hope you stay with us for more than a set Dougie. At first I thought you were a boot licking government enforcer/ tax collector, but your recent confession tells me you're just a big cuddly teddy bear. Out of curiosity, if you arrest me, I'm cuffed, and I tell you there's a gun in my underwear, do you have to reach in and search? And if there's no gun, is lying about it a crime? Also, if it's a female cop does she have to call for male backup like male cops who aren't allowed to "search" women?

I agree that it does take some fun away, if I battle an opponent the only thing stopping me is 0 turns. But I believe it is meant to prevent griefer/suicides from trashing finishes by launching attacks strictly to lower NW.
I'm not sure why access to bots is restricted. Maybe Celphi could take a look. No reason we can't keep smacking them around, they don't care about rank or fairness.

Likely not a very good one, I think you're supposed to specialize and not build all different buildings like you have

With 10,000 acres you should build:

500 industrial, 0 labs, 9500 farms, 0 rigs

or 10,000 industrial with 0 labs, farms, or rigs

or 500 industrial and 9500 labs with 0 farms and 0 rigs

Specialization is something even I remember from over 20 years ago

Both. Remember learning biology in high school? Science?
And have you taken the time to scan through the CDC papers that admit all of this is lockdown/mask/mystery juice is counterproductive and making things worse? 1000's of doctors and scientists ringing alarms all over the world "They are lying, this technology is not safe."
Did you read articles written by Saint Fauci himself that also state everything we're doing would actually suppress our own immune system thereby spreading this fluff artificially?
You notice how we went from 1 shot immunity to 1 shot every 4 months, because Safe and Effective™?
Did you notice everything predicted by conspiracy theorist came true? From vax pass, to "quarantine" camps and on to forced vaccinations (Hi Australia, UK, all federal employees). The Nano bots, 5g chips, alien bacteria were fun attempts by media misinformation to cloud truth, trying to lump it all together. Destroying small business and TRILLIONS in Corona "relief" but only to large corporations and various special interest groups? Open borders still being a thing. I could go on, but it's too late. Rest assured, they won't stop, too much money and power to be had.

Ultimately I have no desire with messing with the game mechanics (that includes bot code). Let's be frank, this game is built on nostalgia. The more you deviate from the game of old the less desirable it is to play.

What's wrong with the bots? As I understood the crash a few sets back was an expired certificate.

Edit: Reflecting the crashed eestats was the certificate. I didn't read all the posts, but maybe they tied together somehow.

To be fair this set in tournament has been constant warfare. That mixed with cashers/ rainbows who build farms to offset cost. Not nearly the demand. Can't keep military on market more than 30 minutes though, so it's not a total loss.

You haven't been around long enough to understand. It's a systemic problem. It's the primary cause for loss of talent. It is demoralizing to build a country, competing for top 10, when suddenly some player walks through the ranks doing 10 grabs each. Then turtle up and wall their country. If nobody kills them this will be repeated until they run out of stock and just start random missile strikes. That player specifically created a country with the intent to landfarm for fun, and trash the set for multiple players. They won't make top 10 and had no interest. Only fluffing with other players. The term griefer or suicide, there is a reason.

When you actually learn this game Rocky and get to a point where you can compete for top rank, you will watch as days of work is obliterated and the others around you, just because. Check back and tell us how funny it was.

I think you missed the part during the peaceful riots when police got on their knees and begged forgiveness (including my own). Or when the police abandoned their duty and let peaceful rioters burn down cities (including my own), loot stores, rob, rape, assault innocent citizens. In CHAZ/CHOP the police abandoned their precinct and stood by while BLM marched the streets armed with rifles (scary Assault Rifle 59's). People were murdered ( among the casualties 2 black teens were slaughtered by BLM with 5.56mm while sitting in a parked car), stores were emptied, and businesses got blackmailed for "protection". I listened on scanners and watched the live streams. I don't know how much respect or "thank you for your service" that deserves. But ya gotta put food on the table so whatev.

I know people who used to do it every turn. I never did more than every couple turns. But you can see there is an issue here that some people invest a lot of time and effort into their countries only to have it destroyed on a Saturday or Sunday by someone who spent a tenth of the time into their country themselves.

You saying that no one cares who wins anyway is probably true now, but it isn't always, just a few months ago we had good competition and people were taking great pride in tweaking their strats to outnet the competition. Granted it was shortly after extensive game changes and that might have made it more interesting.
But still we had those bouts of good competition here before over the years when there wasn't big game changes, there isn't a pattern for how they start, but there damn sure is a pattern for how they end; A couple of griefers play every week with the intent to destroy said competition.

Mods know who the griefer is. Galleri 'Not My Problem™' Supermod won't do anything for some reason. Players get banned on other servers for player abuse, but not this one. He picks and chooses which set to ruin, farms as many countries as possible, then turtles up. I can't tell you how many players have quit this game (many permanently) because of THIS EXACT BEHAVIOR. Do your fluffin job Galleri. Holy fluff what a diversity hire you turned out to be.

Good luck guys. Mars and it's No Mod policy landed on Earth (express/team at least). I do enjoy the challenge, but I witnessed personally as it destroyed Mars2025 and ended that game for all of us. I see the same pattern here, and you guys deserve better. Please retire Galleri Not My Problem™. You are of no use as a mod.

She can only delete after the fact, if there is any rule broken like collusion, multi or similar. The fact is it's never on her plate except that one time one of these guys offered a trade of land in team server for land on express and thereby suggested collusion ingame and was reported for it... Even that set all the damage was already done when she deleted.

This is on admin/dev/mod boss depending on what action you are suggesting and what is on the table. You have to understand that the mod of a server has a limited set of behaviors to punish and a very limited set of available punishments.
Without knowing what information is available to the mods every reset its very difficult to say if they are doing a bad job or everything they can.

What Galleri could do would be to write out a "Spirit of the server"-post that points out behaviours that are unacceptable and then enforce those rules in this server. Last time this happened(in team server), and even tho the playerbase suggested those rules and agreed with them when they were implemented, the mod who correctly enforced those rules got removed.

Galleri can delete players (same couple) who harm the player base and ruin the experience for MULTIPLE players.
If Galleri is too NMP™ then she can inform another admin who can do the job for her.
It will chip away at the player base, but that only matters to players, which she is not. Nothing affects her personally, so fluff off, NMP.

Edit: A spirit of the server doesn't mean anything if the offending players spent days negotiating with mods to twist rules and escape bans. It's technically not bullfluff, so......... NMP.

horror. Then, when they started killing me, I regretted all the time lost, I regretted those 18 days that remained until the end) I presented the clan players as grandmo hanging on slow drugs or hash and playing Farm Frenzy Earth, otherwise call it. I wanted to drive but realized that it would not be, removed the defense, apologized and left. Perhaps I don't understand something, let it be an alternative opinion, but restrictions and bots are too much. My favorite kill was at landkill top enemy country, with these rules and formulas it is impossible.

boring...
With regard to politics Famiglia about untagged it nice. I too have always adhered to peaceful coexistence clan players and untagged, even more, I've always had a division in untaggeds for cheerful game, for provocations and screwed up Spyop) Sorry for my english and good luck)

Few incidents unite Americans other than nation-wide victories or tragedies. The BLM terrorist attack on the Waukesha Christmas parade is a terrible reminder of media propoganda and race-baiting groups that have destroyed any progress or unity our country may have reached. The desperate and pathetic need for social credit or views and upvotes is destroying everything it pretends to care for and fight for.

This wasn't an "incident", "wrong turn", "fleeing", or "no motive at this time". A terror attack by a black supremacist targeting a Christmas parade in a majority white city. Twist some pretzels and burp some excuses, or just read his Facebook/Twitter posts.

God bless. Pray for the survivors and lost lives.

Farmer for you. Then try techer/Casher.

My last Theocracy Government, I cashed and At over 3 million and went nuts buying Res/ Indy I bought up to 152.000 on both And I had no labs no oil. I was not selling anything ether, didn't need to my spies could steal up to 7 million from the bots and investing in the tech market started incensing the cash flow and I capped the spies at 500K and destroyed indy's down to 5 buildings and rebuild as Res / enter, and I had 256 MB's, and I still had 2800 farms, and was losing 9.000 bushels,a turn, I was ready to dump all the farms too !
So if I want to do farmer I should run a fascism gov, and sell on the open market oil and bushels ?

If you are ok with grabbing bots use Fascism or Tyr to get more land/less turns. Dictator gets you more shadow acres but the building loss can cost you more turns. If you want all-x there is a theory that Republic is good for exploring bonus.

Food you can sell on public if it gets crazy. If you get high mil tech the food sells for $38 on private market ($39 if Dem). So buying Agri and mil tech will get you more profit (without tax) on the PM. Spend what you need for military and building. Store excess bushels on the market @99+. Keep adding to that "stock". Save as much as you can. When you notice other player double in NW they are usually spending that stock. From here you buy out pm and wait for it to refill. You can sell if there's profit but don't sell more than you can buy back from pm. 500k spies is heavy. It just chews a massive hole in your food and adds to expenses. Buy spy tech if you want a boost.

Edit: Don't mix n match farms/oil rigs, oiler is a separate strat. Build some rigs for attacks or buy oil. Majority of your build is farms.

Second breakfast: Top players will convert to Theo during this destock phase, but food drops to $28 on pm, so you depend on public sales. Careful with this strategy.

He is still struggling with building for strategy. To successfully convert from labs to military bases takes lots of cash and careful planning. I'm leaning towards farmer for ratski because it's the easiest strat in express since we have bot farms. He can get 20k+ acres it seems. Shop for AG and mil tech and stash surplus. Baby steps.

When you say "dropped" does that mean you razed captured labs or built them, waited till the end?

I would hope being banned from the game only happens when you break the rules multiple times. Personally, I'd rather play with people playing within the rules.

Sometimes mods really ARE idiots. And sometimes people say that "to their face". Some mods can handle criticism, especially if it is earned. But most will ban you and dress you down for good measure. So, whether they abuse their power and take revenge, well... anyone playing this franchise has witnessed it countless times. Childish and petty. 'Flexing' as the yutes call it. My favorite by far is the "If players are polite, and ask forgiveness, publicly in the forums, we MIGHT remove ban....maybe".

The strategy forum walks you step by step. Look at the bots. They are built in standard format.
Your strategy determines the build. You can't make money without a specialty. Farms, labs or IC. You can't mix n match. You want easy farming buy Agri and mil tech. Hit bots and build farms. Hit and build, make every turn count. Sell food on market if it's crazy prices $45+, or sell on pm for $38($39 for Dem). Store food on the market so you aren't guarding a hoard. Buy jets when they're cheap. Don't forget oil, or build some rigs. Best of luck.

Fast market turn over made it possible. I didn't plan food well, missed some market cycles, over spent on construction, and still had turns, but managed to squeak out 36 mil finish. I try to be helpful and understanding, but I don't get players struggling to break 10 mil finish. The strat forums give turn-by-turn instructions. This is coming from a player who's fav strat used to be Tyr Farmer with lots of warfare. Read the strat guides it means you get top 10, follow the recipe.

Depends on how much land you have relative to everyone else. A CI doing a super optimized, turn storing strategy with late land gains can fly under the radar with little-to-no-defense up until the last day. Harder for a farmer who needs land earlier.

There's a reason CI is the easiest strat. It's like building a car, waiting for the green light. Drive it till you hit a wall or run out of gas. Most relaxing version of express. It's also an easy win on tournament.

There are a LOT of little optimizations that you can do, but one of the most important things in my mind is to pick a land goal from the beginning, then build your Construction Sites early on to optimally match your land goal, making the most efficient use of turns. Also, you can then determine how much tech you will need. Once you hit your land goal, you must stop and start stocking. I tried to exceed my land goal as an experiment last set as a Tyr farmer and only got a 29m finish when I should have been over 50m. I simply didn’t have enough stock, due to starting too late and not having enough tech. Too much land is a thing.

It's down to math at that point. Will the turns and money I spend building return a profit or is this optimal, you're built, move on.
Will this increase in production pay for itself? How much tech to buy/research to keep my balance? You can always grab in the last few ours to increase pm. Trading a turn of tech for 5 turns to hit and build for a 75tpt boost is not worth it. I don't play fatty boom booms so a 40k techer is just gross. 20k works if you get it early and built.

I'm lucky to have a good family doctor who advised me to avoid the vaccine like the plague

Interesting, I'd like to get a link or point me in the direction of that info, I haven't seen it, I'm lucky to have an immune system that protected me 3x from contracting the virus, then again I had bet on it since I never in my life had a flu, people around have, several times in past I took care of my girlfriend while she fought the flu, but like I said before, not everyone has a great flu fighting immune system and COVID-19 happens to be a super flu.

A lot of doctors are pointing to this fake vaccine as a theraputic, instead of the Safe and Effective™
It doesn't do what it's supposed to do, and the side effects makes this absolutely more dangerous than the virus itself. There are established treatments for coronavirus complications. That's what honest doctors tell you and that's the medicine the wealthy get, not the vax. Trump caught covid, they gave him HCQ, Remdesivir(sp?), and Z-pack. He was fine 3 days later. We forgot about that....

But all of you know this by now. For many it's too little too late. There's a reason draconian mandates are a thing now. It's poison but WAAAAY too profitable to EVER stop. And btw, who do you think makes all the equipment for said vaccines. Needles, vials, chemicals, etc...

I tried running a couple oilers in FFA. They were profitable but slow. Didn't really care for it. I saw we had a #1 oiler few sets back. Oil was expensive and lots of grabbing. Congrats to whoever pulled that off.

Ok, I'm pledging to learn this strat, I'll start out by going all X then when I learn how to properly destock I'll start grabbing bots, I totally destroyed my Primary destock and I'm pissed at myself for that, it was super silly mistake that cost me $100m+ NW set 🤷

Grab, build farms. Buy tech. Grab and build. Put all your food, Max mil on market. Try to have little cash so that 14% loss won't hurt as bad. Convert. Take food off market to sell in PM. Or leave on public if good prices. If you calculate turns/time you jump early and can resell for better finish.

Is TMBR still a thing in express? Seems pretty volatile.

I can understand the first place Communist country was an industrialist

Anyone with insight please let me know,

Thanks,

Having massive land gives you a much larger private market. With Max tech Theo you could buy out for like $2-4 billion cash (depending on acreage) and resell your mil to easy top 10.
I wasn't paying close attention but I think a couple were Tyr->Theo converts. You lose 14% of resources, but all your food is on the market so some buildings and small chunk of mil. Tyr gets you more land/less turns, Theo gets you the best deals (Dem with Max tech is next).

As a side note you will notice smaller top 10's go on a landgrab frenzy shortly before destock. This is to maximize private market.

Edit: If you choose to convert Tyranny to Theo usually works best for teching. As a techer you should be using the absolute minimum turns for grabbing and building. You can finish top 10 Tyr techer, but Express server seems to prefer Theo.

I don't want to burst your bubble galleri but this post was meant for me.

SF, I don't believe violence is required (or an option). I think you see everything makes sense now that I've had time to reflect. If, as a veteran run low defense I am risking a hit, I could get multiple. I would own that. We saw in this set you wanted to net and coast through. That's why it was "prosperous".

You talk about hitting people to teach them a lesson. fluff your arrogance. It's not up to you to tromp through a server trashing mostly inexperienced or mid-build. That's notoriously the cause of lost player base. You know it. And I'm fluffing sick of your kind. But it's not breaking any rules is it? Despite your asshole behavior we are still family, and there's always a black sheep. I hate your lack of honor and poor gamesmanship, but I respect your devotion and skill.

Please note that medium rare is my preference and if there's no A1 someone's sleeping under the porch.

You ever played tournament or primary gonzo? There is no bots. He who is the lowest defense country is the servers farm target and punching bag.

Same thing here. If I see your fat country sitting on 10k turrets, 200k turrers, 800k turrets or 1.5m turrets you bet your left ass cheek that I am coming for you.

If I hit you once and I don’t “wreck you” that leaves you the ability to retal me right back with a PS. Might as well hamper your ability to retal me by taking away half your land and crippling you; right?

If it bothers you so much fight me back the same set that I farmed you or the next set or come find me in allaince.

For a guy that runs his mouth all day long you sure don’t seem to want to attack my country. It’s not like I am hiding here or in allaince. Got SuperFly in my country name.

Catch me outside

"Fight you"? You mean trade land grabs, lob few rockets and some AB off and on for 3 days? You hit and sit. That's nothing but a war of attrition. And, once again, this isn't about me. You've never farmed me. This is about abusive behavior. You even admit it through all this. But always cap that admission with "mods say I can't be banned for it", as if that's anything but steaming bullfluff. You clear cut countries because it's easy, you know the server schedule, NW ratio, etc. You know the bots will provide more land with no retals. But you Target as many as you can. And then fluff post about how clever and powerful this is.

Remember, you are teaching us players a lesson.
-It's too easy and boring
-Dont farm bots
-You can farm some but don't break 20k acres
-Nevermind, you can't farm bots is lazy and cowardly
-Elite players with low defense should be bullied for their arrogance
-Netgainers, not griefers, ruined this game
-Im not a griefer I just grab a lot
-Just having fun bro
-Why is this server so empty, this game sux y'all
-I thought it was fun, why so serious

I consulted with the mod’s plural. Not a mod.

Like I said just farm the piss out of me if you feel you been done wrong. I am up on 10m turrets now….

Maybe I can teach you how to buy turrets? Press market. Type in desired quantity of turrets and click purchase.

Or my personal favorite method; place 3 market orders of 4m turrets each at $120 and sit back and watch them fill. But don’t cry if I farm you before you manage to buy up your cheap turrets….

"If you cooked my dinner right I wouldn't be forced to slap you around stupid fluff. Why argue? Just cook the fluffing steak right

Edit The fact that you continue to say you "consulted" the mods is because you know it's bullfluff, but it absolves you of karmic debt. It's not player abuse, bullying and general asshole behavior. Nope, mods said so! Sure countless players have been banned for this EXACT BEHAVIOR, but this is different because my mod friends haven't gotten enough player complaints, so let it go for now.

Still no clue what it is you are going on about it.
SF is doing nothing wrong game wise stance. It might be an issue with the player base, but that is nothing that the game mods nor the admins intervene with.
You have played this game long enough that you should know that.

So far you only insult and deflect "buy turrets Derp!!" and claim mods "technically can't accuse me, because the wording". Scummy, and typical of your kind.

Any issue with the player base is an issue for the mod galleri. Jesus Christ, why do you still come here? You don't play and you don't mod. You get to keep your button, and post directives. But you aren't really modding anymore. This is a player openly stating, with glee, that they will choose which set people get to have fat countries (this set had plenty). Or if he wants to net, it's all good, farming bots is fine. He feels lazy or cute, then build a war machine and walk up and down the ranks. Only 3 million turrets!!? BAH!! You deserve 10 grabs!! Not MY problem. I'm just helping noobs learn defense! *innocent shrug*

Without a player base there is no game. His actions are decreasing the player base. Your job, gifted to you obviously, is to assure a stable gaming environment and holding abusive players accountable. Or just make another ham-handed joke about stinky boys and their stupid treehouses and the trademark NMP y'all
