Hmmm. Correct me if I'm wrong here, but you just referring to the countries as "us" is the first I've come to the conclusion that they are you.

Thank you for the information. Btw. It's rude to try to tarnish respected player's reputations by using their names. New lows every week.

Namineff running multies....

I didn't say it was worthy of deletion. It's just a slippery slope. There might be better options

not sure I will have time to play. could be interesting if I did.

I am sure no one really feels the need to "cheat"(against the challenge rules) in these kind of things and you wont be able to stop against that if they do, but heres a few suggestions to remove all sorts of friendship/enemy psycology and :

1. All names are completely randomized or even picked by an independent observer.
2. no one may tell until after which country is which players, but of course all participants must know from the start which countries are participating in the duel. I know its very easy to break this rule and no way to check for it but that just removes the level playing field completely

3. you gotta make rules about which attack types are allowed and what the win condition is "acres at end" is a viable one, also NW I guess but that one is less fun and you could just stock up and get UB with a techer in GDI in that case and ignore the others in the duel and win. You say "destructive farming" but what exactly makes it destructive if missiles and special attacks are not flung as well? Also if special attacks are allowed its very random, someone can win the entire challenge byjust getting GSed a bunch at the right time...
Maybe suggest spy ops and missiles but not special attacks are allowed?

Yes. Mostly those potentially trying to join the challenge to land trade until fatter than non-participants. It would only take 2 idiots to mess it up.

here is an idea. go to team server and make a team. then challenge villians. see how that goes for u

I haven't done it in over a month...

GDI salesman are random people, not just one person doing it, I've done it few times myself and it isn't that much fun ;-)

There are WAY more RRs than just him...unless he's playing all of them, hehe

Demo all-x seems viable. Its a fair bit like the allxp challenge tho. Anything strat specific has a tendency to ruin the market... if you announce a casher challege i will just opt out and play techer to benefit from all the extra cashers.

I played casher in the 0cs duel tho. And in the tyr casher duel too lol. Tyr casher is so bad that it wont ruin the market but i seem to remember the tech prices still went up a fair bit.

Sometimes you make sacrifices to get where you want in life.

I enjoy the challenges as long as it's still possible to top 10 doing them. I won one of the challenges and finished 17th. I am still 43 top tens behind Superfly and 81 behind Viva so I consider anything less than top 10 a wasted set.

Don't mess with Ratski's rainbow!

All bots are offline right now. The servers were physically moved and the bots went down and did not restart as expected. I cannot say for sure when they will be back but qz is aware of the issue now so they could be back up as early as this afternoon/evening (Friday).

Sorry guys, I have no control over this. The only thing I can do is provide a direct line of communication to the administration. For those of you on Express server, it could be a safe bet to expect them to be back on and running for the last couple of days - although I make no promises here...Just my opinion.

squirrel its not really complex enough a spreadsheet would help much

its just

20% base
6% bonus per 100 hits
30% extra bonus for stuff on market

ffa has a 40% base so youd literally lose 0 on market if your country had 500 defends

i know people like to boost 1 country all set there and other people kill the boosted ones before they jump, but if you did about 250 hits on your own country and they took 250 to kill youd lose 0 stock

Then maybe someone really wants an indy to win lol
