It's just good to see guys playing the market instead of get fat oil destock and win. I appreciate the netting taking thought again.

To be fair tho, I played the market like crazy last set. I'm not gonna tell exactly how as thats something I share only with LaFers but I'm absolutely certain that I sold and bought more on the public market in sheer volume than anyone but perhaps Ebert. Maybe 300m of that NW is directly attributable to reselling and/or market prediction gone right. :)

I do agree that the oil destock itself is overpowered and it removes the art of the destock. Changing the 40 oil to 80 oil for the same units would probably be my first change if I was in charge. The occurrence of the oil destock is vital for the market, but the power of it should be curbed to bring fascists in line and make traditional destocking methods competetive and possibly even the normal route.

I've turned quite a bit this set. Should wind up being over 200mil doing the reselling.

The oil to units ratio is far too generous. It makes the game boring. Maybe 50% of current yield would be appropriate.

So is Oiler a viable option?

Probably not, most people doing oil destock are fascist running hybrid farmer oil and rolling their own bbls. Oil prices are actually lower now even though oil is in much more useful for destock than attacking.

Once you get your ratio dialed in, you're actually better off selling surplus oil. You might get a brief spike in price at the start of a war, but food is way more profitable use of acres
