I am down to only 6 people left. Every turn i take someone is dying. I do not know what is up? If this keeps up it will be game over in 6 or less more turns. I will wait to take any more turns until someone advises me of what i can or should do. Anyone can help me?

i noticed a slightly lowered pop too. It messed my start up by a few turns because i didn't have the cash i was supposed to to build.

This happens to me any time I am logged in for first turn, otherwise I haven't noticed it. But YES, this happens to me, as well :(

It's probably due to the new restart framework changes?

Ok, i thought by now things would be back to normal. I ran 3 more turns and lost 3 more people. I am down to my last 3 survivors. Can someone please help me. This would be retarded if i loose my country for simply running turns. Has this ever happened to anyone else?

Of course pop goes down when switching to F. They have a -15% pentalty to max pop. At 100A your pop will definately be under 700.

lol DH they only set it at 70% for one turn.

I was just joking earlier. I just want to see how many other people start having placebo affects with their countries in their head lmao.

ya, and now i am down to only 3 pop and holding turns untill the admin gets back to me. Quiz said he is talking to Martin to figure out what is wrong with my country. It should be ok in a day or so i think.

if you have it at 70% still then take it back down. That'll make your pop come back.

LMFAO- guys, i did finish top 10 last set. Do you think i am serious here? LMFAO- it is an earily April fools. I am again running a top contender country. Time will tell but it has possibilities. No, i do not have 70% tax. I wold like to know if i would be better of running with 36% instead of 35%. I think it would use less food and do not know which is better. Any advise for that?

Also, consider a country with 3 pop that has never been hit. That is too funny.

if there is any difference then it is negligible unless you're a casher.
