That's been happening to me as well, the last couple sets, not just this one... but I wouldn't say "my set has been ruined" because I'm generally not a cry baby so I just say.. oooohhhh, well this is interesting, and then I build more IC's for 100% spies, tech lots of indy tech to increase production, and buy up all the cheap spy tech on the market to help my SPAL


200-300 million cash isn't going to change your set that much really, it's only 1 mil net worth or so.. and if you do some reselling of the markets you can earn that money back anyways

If not then two players within six minutes of each others got the idea all on their own to bomb banks on the same player, and also did it to other people the same way. I mean, really?

While the timeing is not definite proof of either collusion or multi the alternative is in a realm so unthinkably improbable that you can ignore it.

Bombing banks is not cheating. Collusion is. Playing multies is. This is either collusion or multies.

They left just long enough to cause me some doubt, so I just let it go even though I thought it was *reall* weird coincidence.

Glad they got what was coming.

Dude, if you're sitting around with enough money to where bombing your banks would net the attacker $8,000,000+ a pop, what the heck do you expect to happen if you're not going to take proper measures to protect it?

I like the idea of making $8,000,000 a turn! Sign me the fluff up!

get a 15k acre casher if you want $8m/ turn... If you want twice that get a 30k acre casher, or an 18k acre techer.

I dont see why you have to involve someone else in that, honestly.

If you're competing against other players, one might think it would be a good strategic move to spend 1 turn taking cash from an apparent highly under-defended player.

You do the spy ops, get caught, go to war, you both lose.

You do the spy ops, don’t get caught, you gain 8m a turn when you should be getting more than that had you spent the turn cashing or teching. If you make less than that then you’re not even in the competition.

I don’t seem to get where the ‘good’ in that strategy is.

Maybe if you’re trying to pull down a player so your ‘buddy’ can win. If you’re doing that yes, spy ops is a pretty decent strategy. You slow down your target and provoke him to go to war at the same time.

Is that what you’re trying to promote?

As a matter of very small interest, this country, "Cowboy #25"
(https://www.eestats.com/express/oldcountry/1843/25)

played his country just so he could do 120 bomb banks on me. He did get $8m per successful op, for a total of about $280m. Then he self-deleted. What a fine player! What a good sport! So glad to have you in the game Cowboy.

I hope you weren't too disappointed when I still won the set.

That is the form of collusion that was very common back about a year ago and the mods can't really prove.

In the legit case; Primeval is forgetting that the aggressor in this scenario must has only a few ops to do this damage before spy DR kicks in, say 15-20, then has to carry these spies for the rest of the daily 360 turns or hope to find yet another player that he can provoke. Also remember that the common practice is to spy the bots and therefore keep something like 8-20 spal on netters here, I went 20 spal 2 sets ago for instance. So the aggressor has to carry probably 40-60 spal to be able to carry out all these spy ops with a decent shot at not failing one and alerting the enemy to who the aggressor is. That kind of spal will be really costly and will stifle growth.
Theorizing be damned, why doesn't someone show me a couple wins from countries that used bomb banks as a strategy. We have had bots now for what 300 resets, so if this was a good strategy we should see at least a couple % of the wins having been a result of such a strategy.

I don't get how these players do it every round, would get very boring, how can that not get boring. I guess if you can't compete then only option. Like it isn't even give you good LOLz, so many better games to troll and get better LOLz.

That is okay, trolls want to be known, don't give them the benefit, they can be unknown trolls that no one names or cares about, they just exist.

There are just so many better games to troll in, way more fun in something like battlefield or PUBG, doesn't even seem like a good laugh in earth tbh. OMG I stole 230 million from that guy, barely making a dent in his NW, and then self delete, like that doesn't even sound like something that would create much fun or excitement, seems pretty lame to be honest. To spend time to LG and do it, pretty boring and sad, I actually feel bad for these trolls, they need to look on youtube for ideas on how to do it correctly.
