what is happening...

New stage warfare, watch and learn.

Someone post some stats!

9 out of 10 Earthers are tree huggers.

There.

Today was the EE official put your country into vacation day. I guess the memo was slow getting out. :)

BONUS

I thought it was national tequilla day not go on vacation mode day, dang missed that too

I only have sympathy for my brother Tokyo he’s sick of being bullied and oppressed with chems every set the rest of you guys are pussies.

pussies. they have been in SoF too long. That is some real Xyle fluff. cant wall, so go into vacation.....zzz

countries that go into vacation mid killrun in a planned war should be automatically deleted with no restart bonus.

lol

It happened last set too. GDI is like the halfway point to vacation.

Don't hate the player, hate the game.

i do hate the game. its a game mechanic and the abuse of it that i was complaining about.

schedule your kumbaya circlejerk war with 17 days left instead of 14.0001

problem solved

LOL^

100%!!!

Two less breakers and missile throwers to deal with for a day. Minus 160ish turns? I like it... Of only our nub didn't also panic himself all green. :P

Overused and overhyped.

Says a netter. Its about honor and not running away. But this game lost that long ago.

Chems rushes are silly. If they were balanced I'd agree with you.

I case you didnt notice our chem target that went into vacation died 3 sec past midnight after he was forced out of vacation, same amount of chems as he would otherwise have cost us. Maybe he was unlucky, but if he went in sooner we might have just killed another chem target instead of saving our chems for OOV.

I don't think it's an unbalanced mechanic either, unlike the chem rush. Because in the last two sets a total of four countries have gone into vacation and ONE has benefitted from it. 0/3 this set. If wars started 14 days out or 16 days out instead of 14.5 or 15 days out it would be useless, as has been pointed out already. Now it's just 'almost useless'. :P

I do support a fix that makes it so you can't join after 14.0 days left like now but with the change that you always stay in 72 hours at a minimum. That would make it more or less a waste in all wars instead of just all wars not starting within the 24 hour gap or so that now makes it 'potentially' useful.

Chems and CDs are still by far more emasculating to the state of war in this game. They make it feel useless to build a good country for most strats, as most strats need a lot of land to function.
