I've looked at the news every which way but loose but I can't figure out for the life of me why your first attacks of this reset were wasted on this bot

because bots dont hit back probably, lol

he's getting rid of nukes and cruise missiles to make room for chemical missiles is my guess?

that's exactly correct.

unfortunately that thought process is severely flawed

only for the netters that farm bots into oblivion.

we do it all the time on FFA.

Dumping crap missiles. Common practice.

PLEASE EXPLAIN

No explanation needed. He said its flawed... So must be true!

But one does have to wonder how they think this is flawed....

unfortunately if you haven't understood by now why this concept of dumping nukes and for that matter even EM missiles in an attempt to gain more Chem missiles is severely flawed I think I'd be wasting my time trying to explain it to you.

Let's take a look at some observations and stats posted to earth graphs for this reset.

Based on:
1) past Alliance performances
2) Alliance gov't types
3) extremely low alliance avg land acres
4) very limited ss/ps grabs by a few alliance members while the rest of the membership spend turns research most likely war techs

there are 5 Alliances positioning themselves for a definite war or a possible war this reset.

These alliances are iMagNum(7 members) SoF(42 members) SOL(50 members) STONES(15 members) VIRAL(17 members)

Listed below are all the players from these 5 alliances that have dumped nuke missiles and EM missiles in an effort to produce more chemical missiles:

#126(SoF) 2 nukes
#334(SoF) 11 nukes
#23(STONES) 10 nukes...and 8 EM missiles
#247(STONES) 3 nukes...and 1 EM missile
#27 (STONES) 1 nuke
#307(STONES 1 nuke
#104(VIRAL) 6 nukes... and 2 EM missiles
#24(VIRAL) 8 EM missiles
#185(SOL) 6 EM missiles
#262(SOL) 14 EM missiles

So out of 5 possible and most likely warring Alliances this reset with a total of 131 players, only 10 players are dumping nukes and EM missiles while the other 121 players continue to stockpile all of them

It would appear that 121 players understand the importance of keeping all missiles while 10 players can't seem to grasp the concept.

Or they arnt at their missile max yet and the ones dumping are.....

People do it all the time. I do it all the time. You are incorrect on this, accept it before you look silly lol.

Or..... 10 players reached their maximum allowable missiles several days ago, and have since changed their missile makeup to include less nukes and more chems. At least one of those players is back within two of his max again already, but now has far more chems.

If I'm allowed 44 missiles and already have them, I dump say... 11 nukes, gain 7 more chems, a couple EMs, and produce another cursed nuke, am I better off or worse?

Beat you.

Id rather have an arsenal of all chems...but thats jusy me

ONLY BECAUSE I HAVE A TENDENCY TO BE LONG WINDED AND BELABOR POINTS.

AND BECAUSE I'M ON MY PHONE.

He has obviously not seen the total destruction of a 5k CM fs.

SoF needs more members. Or are some SoL going to stay out of the war like last reset?

I can think of several reasons why 121 arent besides one listed above.

For example my own personal one would be: Laziness. I just cant be bothered to check and see if I have obtained my max missiles or not, let alone look for target to unload ones I dont want.

I hit max missiles last week, but I figured I'd be diffused before I get a chance to fire them all so I'm happy to sit where I am. Up to them if they want to keep diffusing EM's.

Ahhh .. The ol defuseification trick!
