In all my years of playing I don't think I've ever seen a completely empty tech market w/ 2 weeks to go..

Looks like a demo is playing the market. Not too hard to amass that kind of money if you're not attacking anymore. Couldn't really see another reason why everything is gone.

People stock food because if you hold cash over $2b, it starts being lost at the same rate food decays due to "corruption." But you can buy food with that money and then stash it all on the market as a way to avoid that.

From a totally empty tech market to 100,000 pts for $1650. Looks like the market is going to be fine.

That's only true until you catch up, lazurus. ;) It's known as 'jumping' - you stash a bunch of stuff on the market and make a big move right at the end.

I cannot see your signature - so if it's witty, put it in a post instead! :p

You set it at a much higher price. Such as millions of bushels at $120.

stonnyhills (#98), poor guy. I think he is proper fkd now. He tried playing BiBiGoN (#82)'s strat without prepping for it. I think he is close to getting killed. And people say you cannot do a solo kill in Primary. Apparently with enough CMs, you can.

Yeah if he had that many missiles, more missiles will come fast. Just look at Crazy, he's a missile factory. Dems can make a lot.

66 missile strikes on a Republic. That was impressive. As a Tyranny he might have added 20 more AB's or GS's.

Was wondering just how much damage I Tyranny could do if someone broke gdi.

I wonder though, would less missiles been more devastating as a dictator?

Anyone know who runs the 2 dicts farming herbs? Do they have what it takes for 1-2?

Also one of the top indies just got topfed pretty hard(not a Retal)... So begins the topfeeding, keep your D up!! Seems to be the set of the dicts.

A full techer topfeeding someone with a chance to win on the 20th of the second month. That's a douche move. And don't say "bigger private market" because the public market is still better to jump from atm and the jet losses alone were probably huge.

Not to mention that land isn't even worth building as a techer at this point and that his tpt just got lowered by making the hit. So is he done teching for the set or what? And if he's done teching, public market jump... The only question is if it's griefing on a totally random country or if he has a grudge against a guy. All i know is that hit certainly helps the big dicts.

Well too bad 40 or so GSes don't do fluff. The pop loss will only take about 30 turns to recover at most. The EMs didn't do much, 1 turn of income will buy back the lost units. He didn't throw any NMs, it would be hard to believe he didn't have any. The main loss is really the 10k empty acres from the CMs.

10k empty acres hurts. in any case he only first got attacked on the 18th so he was never 'the dead'! only took him 2 days to respond.

And yeah why do EMs suck so much

Some interesting countries:
there's two top commies
there's one dict with a lot more land than the other top dicts
there's one top farmer with 56k land and food is doing good right now
there's a demo casher that stopped grabbing like 10 days ago and could have made a lot of money on food

It's really up in the air as who will take top 3. Commie are being forced to sell military for under 100. Cashers got 53-57 food to pay for. Dict cashers don't do very well $$$ per acre. Dict pretty much loses all relevant bonuses when stocking.

Farmers are doing well, but can't just keep selling food at 53-57. Once they get to 2bil. they start to suffer corruption (can't see farmer getting near -100% decay but possible), or farmers got to start stocking themselves. Then they sell their stock at much lower prices possibly even on private.

Tech prices are still pretty strong, might see a surprise techer at the end.
