I appreciate the thought KoH, but I have been practicing my bot grabbing for several sets and have been fine tuning the switch to Theo for my destock. I'd like to beat my previous record score. How about just a regular competition? I have a country made for the upcoming set.

I also enjoy attacking the bots

I think I discovered last round that the amount of money I get from a bot when I land grab seems to depend on how much money I have on hand at the time, which is interesting

I grabbed a bot before and again after I sold a bunch of food on my private market and I think I got a lot more the 2nd grab

I only participated in the tyr casher challenge and the 0cs challenge. Those were fun, people played the 0cs challenge so much different from one another. I don't remember if we had a all-xp challenge as well, if we did I didnt participate.

I forget what the other challenges but I remember I was unable to participate in one of them and another one of them sounded boring at the time so I skipped it. Game has changed a lot since then tho, this was like 3 years ago, I think.

The best place for all-X is Team. You can win Team with an all-x.. and if you don't do all-x you are likely to die! You might die anyway of course.

I thought this entire game was only Xplore.

Well, with exception to attacking bots.

Have we coded Earth so that players can only atk bots yet??

You can copy and paste this msg for when a player atks another player:
"Sorry, you may not attack another non-bot. Please either use your explore button or attack a bot in DR."

Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.

I think like 15-17k depending on govt and strat. Techers are all lower than that range if you all-xp it.

No research phases here since you can store so many turns. You can always find tech at 2500-3500 depending on how patient you are, and that is affordable enough to avoid a tech phase which would cost you hundreds of turns (switch+ teching).

Tech is normally still expensive until late Friday at the earliest, but sometimes doesn’t start to come down until mid day Saturday. Lately with fewer techers and more market manipulation, prices have been a bit more sporadic

No guys am doing rep/casher, except no all-x and tech phase. Loaded myself with military thinking prices were going to rise but with no oilers the market is flooded with military equipment. I shoulda ran oiler.

Going full oiler may end up meaning you get stuck with too much oil. Having played a big Fascist farmer with only making around 5k-8k oil rigs I was able to supply most of the server. Too many oilers can be painful for prices. Military also normally stays low on Express (sub-$120 turrets) until Saturday, but when there is high demand, all the cheap stuff can get temporarily bought out before then.
