Bushels market is corrupted. Chunks of 5 mil pieces, btw 58 to 70, flying around like flies and being bought enterly. That is just a main farmer and 2-3 lapdogs helping him getting advantage.

<Market> Dec/01/2013 20:23:03 -- Bushels -- $70 -- 4,481,716 -- SO: No -- Remaining: 0 Bushels

<Market> Dec/01/2013 20:22:58 -- Bushels -- $68 -- 13,177,931 -- SO: No -- Remaining: 0 Bushels

<Market> Dec/01/2013 20:17:15 -- Bushels -- $67 -- 4,679,206 -- SO: No -- Remaining: 0 Bushels

<Market> Dec/01/2013 19:59:03 -- Bushels -- $65 -- 5,820,343 -- SO: No -- Remaining: 0 Bushels

Meanwhile probably the main country is :

<Market> Dec/01/2013 20:03:00 -- Bushels -- $48 -- 5,595,248 -- SO: Yes
<Market> Dec/01/2013 20:03:00 -- Bushels -- $48 -- 3,404,752 -- SO: Yes

well at least will know there are 2-3 good players involved into this. A n00b won`t have enough cash to "mistakely" do this.

Qz can you clean the trash before set ends ?

lol - ok. It is a little strange tough. You do realize that some commies work really hard for this round and by buying a 83$ food stock you are just pissing on their work right ? Also you are fluffing reps set, techers set ( because people won`t have money to play turns buy tech ) and you are just helping some farm to win it ?

P.S: i don`t need food - i ain`t runing turns anymore. Except maybe pwning CROATIA some more :)

That doesn't work since I had to sell the food that I bought to my own priv.

I might have bought 2.5b but that was using about maybe 1.5b?

To be completely honest i think this has to do with your good friendship with CX , ex RD buddies, being allied with him, him running a farmer this set - and fluffcetera...

But that`s just me! | - * |. I am not aiming for top 3 spots this reset - but is is a shame for those hard worked commies that are doing the game, clean.

CX is running a non-top 10 w/e iono. It's some rep so maybe casher. He's 126.

Also Superfly's a commie. So fluff all the commies! Blame him :P

Can't we just have a laugh?

I'm enjoying myself :P.

Why not? You think it's all gonna sell at $54? No.

I originally had it at $75 and someone put a pretty large quantity at $74 so I just said fluff it, this round is getting close to the finish, I need to get it sold.

Even at $54, it won't get sold.

BTW, I was attempting the R -> H strategy. It doesn't work that well... too much food to try to unload. If I had just stayed R I probably could've pushed 29-30m.

Too many variables to say I'd have gotten it but wow, everything else broke right besides this conversion attempt haha.

I had about 80000 for sale at ~$2088. I had forgotten to put it up for only 2 hours when the res/bus was leaping between $1150 and $2799 and I was trying to get on the bandwagon. I bought quite a lot at $1150 and sold some at around $1780, $1930 AND $2100. In the end I made a few dollars, I think, had my casher at 178.2% res/bus and had these extras on the market. Rather than recall them I decided to just leave them there to the end and see what would happen.

I'd like to try running a democracy now that I know how to see the irc market channel and work to improve my market skills. I felt like I was missing something fundamental when I could only get to $25mNW. To easy to blame it on "cheating". I think playing the market well could give another 20%

You'd be surprised what a little market play can do. High-selling tech or food is a major gamechanger (see the last two sets), but you can make quite a profit even as a non-Demo (maybe not a Commie though) playing with techs, oil, and food on a micro-level.

Done properly, and with some luck, you can boost a standard 22.5-23m NW all-x rep finish into the 26m NW range - more if you grab like a beast.

Just wondering:

If you get threatened by another country to drop your def ally or else you'll get topfed too, and you drop him. Is this considered coordination?
