I've already created a country, but I'm not sure what to do this time. In my time here, my illustrious exploits include:


1) Gaining access to the top 20 by all-x DR alone

2) Demolishing the concept of GDI countries using DR from "friends" to protect themselves as they make fat grabs on other countries

3) Destroying the tech market

4) Dispensing justice on multi-tappers, whether they hit me or not


Right now, I'm all out of ideas. If anyone here can point me in a new direction, I will take it into consideration. This new direction cannot include the following:

A. Any direction which requires coordination with other players
B. Any direction which requires cheating
C. Any direction which requires time and dedication on my part

Thanks!

Destroy the tech market please. Because I don't see how that would work.

If by 'destroy', he means 'crash tech prices early to benefit all of the cashers, farmers, and indies', then by all means. :D

But how is one player gonna do that?

Hack the Explore, BPT, and revenue scripts to somehow get him 50k fully built acres as a tech by turn 200?

Oh, that will just annoy people and not lower tech prices at all... i bought all that mil strat and then bought the normal mil strat and it didn't matter

Oooooo 500 points of tech... big freakin' deal LOL!

blid's right.

even if he did it 360 times, it still wouldn't be more than a nuisance i don't think... you just buy it up little by little and get 5 minutes of your life wasted
plus look at his qualifier C. he doesnt want to spend time on it

so what does 2) mean?

Yes, but notice the tech prices were way lower a couple hours later? The point is to be annoying, so my stuff stays up longer as everyone tries to click through all the crap at the same time. ONE person will be successful as everyone else will just get the "you purchased nothing" page. And people will see the low prices and start undercutting. Only works if there are no standing orders, tho. That reset was an interesting reset.

The next reset, the admins implemented additional rules to stop that sort of thing (GDI countries using DR from "friends" to make fat grabs while receiving small retals).

I started that thread! I win.

You win the right to start a new thread.

So option 2 means you get put in DR and then top feed? I think that can already be deleted for.

No, the idea back then was for ME to put as many countries in DR as possible, so the people that WERE exploiting DR they got from "friends" would have far less targets to choose from.

Well whoever exploits DR is already supposed to be deleted...

Right; that particular rule was implemented the reset after I ran The Golden n00b (#22).

Uhm, go untagged, AB people to 0 CSs and send them a courtesy message to join GDI next time :-)

Well...I've decided the direction I am going to go. By the end of this set, look for me in the top...100, maybe.

Isn't that where you normally finish?

No, I normally finish in the top 30 or so.

You're an idiot.

I find I can usually (but not always) finish at least top 50 if I forego sleep and play all weekend.

Then bow before me, my loyal subject. For I am your king.

I find I will always finish top 10 even if I half ass the set.

It's actually easier to finish top 10 if you half-ass it.
