9/10 dentists agree that theo casher is better than rep casher for grabbing on Express.

This just in: there are 10 dentists playing EE and either one or nine of them is incompetent. 50/50. I suggest you floss!

Anyone want to do a new challenge of limiting bot farming and trading PS’es with other players? Maybe 4 LGs on a bot and 2-3 hits on different player and see if you can defend the retal?

Something new to change it up and let them poor bots breath a bit? Maybe spicy up the round with the risk of someone hitting you back?

Just a thought

Maybe next set we bring up an all-x challenge?

Arranging to trade PSes with players is probably too close to coordination which isn't allowed.

I have a feeling that in a full all-x challenge, the bots might get into the top 10. lol

What I am saying is to make random LGs on other players.

Bring back 2009 baby! Make a PS and buy them turrets to defend your gainz!

Tournament, primary or even team style!

I dunno I am just going to try my luck on changing it up. If I PS any of you; I apologize beforehand and it is nothing personal. I am just trying to add some risk to my land grabbing to change it up.

Like Slag mentioned last set I R The SuperFly so I can LG anyone and everyone lol

You can't arrange something like that as a group. The participating players will have an advantage over nonparticipating players (one example would be they might run more defense than usual).

Ok final disclaimer. I am not arranging anything.

This is an open invitation to LG whoever you want or play however u want.

I am just saying that I would like to try my luck on LGing someone that can retal. I’ll have lots of turrets and I hope that it will deter Retals lol

That combo is what made this server fun many many moons ago in a land without farms....errr.....bots.

I can answer your question superfly. Assuming the person you hit tries to retal, any good player will not only retal successfully, but get more than your original grab. If you manage to avoid a retal by producing millions of turrets you otherwise wouldn't need, the expenses will make it not worth it. That leaves inactives and rainbows as the only viable human countries to hit. If you're not trying to improve your country, then go for it. All that matters is you're having fun without breaking any rules =)

Yeah, we said we thought they too short so you made them shorter. That way you can lengthen them to 4 weeks and we will all be happy you think. It will work on everyone else but not me, I saw through your manipulation!

Bot Defense Initiative (#76)
Bot Defense Initiative (#4)

This happens frequently though, I don't mean to ping a mod to rename them as much as an admin to put a "That name is taken!" error message into the code.

As far as I know it's a feature. We have country numbers so we can tell countries apart.

Don't know the historical basis for allowing duplicate names. People in the same clan might want to have the same name?

It makes things confusing for other users, and if it's unsolicited it could be quite annoying for the one who got their name impersonated. And in a solo server, it gives the appearance of funny business even if there is none.

Man you're all so uptight; can't do this, can't say that, this shouldn't happen, that's against the rules, omg collusion, omg cheating blah blah blah lmao

I usually refrain from making comments about stuff like this but as a newer player that has stayed on, it's quite a turn off.

At the end of the day, it's a game and it's supposed to be fun. Quit trying to dictate how the game should be played (on your own terms).

im just saying if one country already has a name the game shouldnt let another country take the same one. hardly an extreme or bizarre take?? actually it's weirder as it stands imo, and it really just seemed like a simple and common sense thing to bring up while there's an admin in the house who could throw on a patch.

just look what happened irl with macedonia :|

Dont worry Molotov in the past we have had 10+ countries with the same name and different number.

It’s all good and personally I like when people copy my name. It makes it fun :)

Oh btw I have had a really slow start. Been really busy at work but I will get caught up and the bot initiative will begin to retal all your hits on the poor bots!
