also i don't care to get into the politics of land trading vs non landtrading and all that nonsense ...
but the truth is at the end of every reset we break scores down and find out who top non land traders were and who top traders were, so it would be helpful to have a visual at the end of the set, that is already broken down that way.
it doesn't change game mechanics doesn't change debates, it just lets us all see it broken up 3 ways.

just get rid of the scores and let everyone fight over who gets to create the #1 country every set.

Vic is pro-segregation! Next he won't want landtraders riding the bus with non-landtraders.

Vic only issue I see with that is how would a script be written that would know who is landtranding and who is just grabbing?

Landtrading greatly affects the finishes of non landtraders.

There are so many farmers with so much bushel production that the market stays way down for almost the entire set. This allows techers and other non-traders the set-long opportunity to pick up bushels at < $40. This is just one example. The total land base for landtraders is so high that they can pretty much destock entirely off their own private market, which makes the public market have more goods available end of set at a lower price.

Networths achieved by everyone are "tainted" or whatever you want to call it. The fact is, all networths are going to be inflated because of the landtrading that goes on.

Btw, hi Vic. Where the heck are you now?

Read between the lines, he's complaining about land trading, obviously he's running a bottom feeder that is trying to compete for #1.

lol i have no complaints against land trading and i'm not competing for a #1 spot. however, every reset we break it down and post the non land traders. candyman, another prominent earth personality and laf leader, recently posted about landtrading and called for changes. i'm not suggesting changes, that's a whole different story. i just think it would be cool to see it broken down.

and red i suppose it would have to be entered on the last day. it would only be a top players scoreboard for previous resets and would not be active during that given reset. it would not count toward scoreboard, only 'overall' column would.

CM doesnt like landtrading because he can just get FA to win and with traders he needs more FA! ;)

get the FA from the land traders. they can afford to send more. it's all a socialist plot anyway. lookie, free imaginary land created from boinking each other in the a-hole. we can procreate by fluffing uranus.

I vaguely remember that and I feel as if I was one of the few who wasnt supposed to eat a fluff. Nice feeling.
