Thanx DancingBear. I first played in 1998 and played off & on until around 2002 or 2003. This will be my third full tourney set back. *Hopefully* I'll see you in A next reset but still have to make it through C.

You are so right that they'd have to experienced the multis to know what we're talking about lol! I was actually one of the original members of a group called the multi-killers in Standard A. We were a bunch of self-styled vigilantes who's single goal was to take out as many multis as we could find. Most of us ended up getting our countries deleted by Mehul (who wouldn't do a d*mn thing about the mutlis!) but it was easy to create more back then lol.

The biggest difference I see besides the lack of multis is the bots in some servers and the etiquette between players. There was no "i'll hit you once and you retal once" back then. A single LG could lead to a set-long war between you & your allies and them and their allies. It's a lot tamer now days then it used to be which, in some ways, is nice for someone like myself who plays to see if I can better what I did last set.

Thanks again for the welcome back.

Thanx Zorp. I'll look for it next set. -v

No, I didn't see an option to continue. I figured it was some fluff-headed move I made, but didn't know what. I'll look for it next time. Watch out C lol. Thanks drkprinc.

I finished 2nd in B this last reset. When I create my country for next reset, I see it listed in Game C. This happened to me last reset also but I thought it was because I changed country names, but this time I created the country using the same name?

Doesn't the top 25% of B & C move up to A?

Really? I don't remember it. I was mostly a tournament player back when you had to play lower levels to get to B or C and then get to A and played an occasional standard. Played in the alliance server a reset or two with Omega back when they had the text-based rpg dungeon.

Nope, not macdaddy. Seen a few of his threads. I'm not an idiot, really lol. I used to play back in the late 1990's and early 2000's. Just came across Earth Empires a month or two ago. I really like the Express and FFA concepts, wish they'd had been around back in the day.

Exactly correct. It can be anything but MB. As I said, it is ULA currently. If I were to do this again, I would make it something just because I have to drop the "free" 20 acres of land every day and I KNOW that one of these times I'm going to accidentally drop 21 acres instead of only 20 :0 :0 :0

A man who is putting on his armour for war should not boast like a man who's taking it off. ~Ancient African Proverb

It's actually ULA although it could be anything EXCEPT a MB.

Haven't sold cheap military except for once early in the set, just to test it out. May have to try that though if I want the country to keep growing. I was just playing around and didn't even really intend (or ever think) that it could get this big so I don't even really have a strat or a plan laid out. Just want to see how big I can grow it now.

No, the country has never left protection. It is truly at 1 acre with over 50mil NW. I know I will never win with it, but it's been fun as **** playing it. My only regret is that I didn't have another 3 or so billion before I had to jump. I saw it done years ago when I used to play.

The art of war is simple enough. Find out where your enemy is. Get at him as soon as you can. Strike him as hard as you can, and keep moving on. ~Ulysses S. Grant

Good luck. They look like a good clan. -v

Yeah, probably right lol.

If you want to join NAB you are welcome. I only created it so I didn't get hit 20 times a day while I try out crazy strats. Our only rule is no fighting unless you are attacked. Message me if interested.
