toma do you read or just skim.

i said SOME people. meaning multiple people. people who i know wont waste the land suiciding and such.

and if i was offering this to "friends" to gain an unfair advantage i wouldnt have made a public thread offering. i would just post my country # but we all know a select few retards would just kill it to be funny, cause they dont want people to be able to net.

You know, if the guy wants to run a country and give land to 1 or 100 players, that's HIS business.

If you're not on his list, I guess it sucks to be you. And before you say it, no. I wont be applying for some of that free land.

Well, to avoid starting yet another thread on the issue, y'all can hit me up for some freebie land too. I won't be around much this weekend, and am just gonna run a batch explore Rep for the set. It'll probably get grabbed a bit anyways, but I'll drop def and spend a few turns coming outta DR's if someone wants to hit me up for some free land to help them net w/o getting suicided by their LG targets.

I have a great idea... how about instead of creating an argument of semantics, you just don't make a country.

Everyone wins. I don't see how making a land farm helps this server at all.

An unfair advantage like planning to "have fun" with a bunch of your alliance buddies?


Omega -> LCN / Omega / Fist Sauna -> who wants to have fun in express next set?

having good allies in express is important. i try to intel/dpact countries i see that might grab me. if you can get a bunch of your friends to come in and help you... there are no rules against such.

Who said anything about allies?

"Spirit of the rules
Players should strive to play according to the spirit of the rules, especially on servers without clans. These servers are designed for individual play. To make the game fair for all players and accessible to new players, players in the primary, express, and tourney server should not engage in any outside of game organizing which gives them an advantage over what can be accomplished through normal, ingame diplomacy."

These servers are designed for individual play.

the "Relations" page?

edit:
ah, i got what you mean i think
but its flawed logic i think.
clearly if you have friends that play, u will naturally want to help them, and them help you.
cant actually expect people to only get help/o/d/int ect pacts from random people then message off the scores page

There's nothing wrong with allying your friends as long as you'd play as you would with random allies.

ok no problem.

i guess having less countries and less land is what helps the server, right?

thanks for enlightening me.

Since some folks apparently need it spelled out for them...

Ok:

allying with friends, allying with friends running similar strategies, timing batch explores with friends to maximize protection.

Not OK:

having a friend run a land farm for you, getting FA from friends to get a top 10 spot, killing countries that haven't touched you cooperatively with friends


Let's say for the sake of the dipfluffs that will try to whine about semantics that friends = friends, clan mates, or butt buddies that you're trying to get a reach around from.

if FA is so wrong, why can you do it? seems to me that it could just be denied if admins think its cheating..

FA is ok - planned FA with the intent of getting a friend/clanmate into the top 10 is not.

Well, if 6-8 people get together and make a FA chain to put someone in the top 10, how is that any different than the stuff that people fluff about endlessly in other servers?

well ive been hit by a few randoms. im in DR pretty bad now. is DR only time based? I was under the impression you can get out of DR if you played turns and/or made attacks?

im at 9600 acres and ive not been farmed yet? wtf the time i DONT try to net i skate all set with no military and too much land. this is retarded.

well it doesnt apparently i played 350 turns and people are still only netting very small grabs. like 30-50 acres.

and whats even more wierd i logged out last night with 5011 acres and today when i logged in i had recieved 3 attacks but still had 5011 acres so i didnt actually loose anything somehow.
