How is the damage determined on earthquakes? I just got one that destroyed 732 buildings.

4% or anything under. I think it's random.

yup, standard deviation from 4% or below

So between 4% and 1 deviation lower is approximately 68% likely..

This seems to happen every set. I hit someone and then pull out of range and I get a message like this:

"You're a coward to attack countries who cannot attack you back. Coward!"

I think people like this need a ride in the WHAHmbulance!

My theory is that if you allow a country to get out of your humanitarian range because their network is too high, then you are very average at playing this game and deserve what you get.

If you allow a country to constantly hit you and then drop out of your humanitarian range and their net worth is too low for you to attack, then you are also very average at playing this game and deserve what you get.

Also if you grab KoHearts' earthquake prone land and have to spend 10 turns rebuilding - you are above average but you still deserve what you get.

I'm just glad your getting bigger. If you were to get into a war and shrink in size prices could hit $70. As far as how long...the first market shift will probalby be when one of the big 3 techers decides to destock. But even then there may be enough people sitting on max turns that can eat through a single techers stock in a day.

NiteIL I think you are in very good shape. Just need to keep growing as fast as those RCs coming up strong.

There is always no agri tech on the market most times I log in. I would love to buy a lot more, and no one is filling my standing orders. =\

I'll trade you some beluga caviar for some agri tech, so I can produce even more beluga caviar for you.

Your standing orders valuations are insulting to my researchers, military strategy and weapons are the techs with most value for me ;-)

On another note....seems someone is going for big grabs and i caught him spying on me.....wanna play Mr Casher?

"Your treasury prints money to increase tax revenues this turn!" I honestly can't remember the last time I saw a positive message like this. I'm expecting 2 earthquakes tomorrow :(

I saw someone with a dead ally and I oversent just incase but they didn't have any ally losses, so I think not (but you could help confirm as a second check).

No. They only continue to add ally expenses.

Possibly, but I already accounted for that when I lost about the same amount of turns when I was at max and forgot to log it...
I haven't touched the manage tab for a few days...

I would be interested in the finer details. Of course the first is the method of ones play, and attacks. So for each player different sets may prove as better or worse based on those dynamics regardless of some of the finer details. I can not help but feel - and this is a guess without looking or working it out, that on the whole, last set there was more land within all players on average than this set, but maybe as well more land to take from, and grabs being made and generated by the lower ranked countries. No idea for sure. Last set I was able to get maybe 18% more land on only a few more hits, and sooner than this set. I feel for me this set was trickier to get land. But given the right timing and strategy it could work and getting ones land goal, which I did not this set.

less defined as days go by. Fading away well you might say I am losing the focus. Kinda drifting into the abstract in terms of how I see myself

I don’t mind that, but when you are running a 4:1 or 5:1 jet to turret ratio, sorry - that is not acceptable and I will, and have been, grabbing twice back for each hit on me. I’m happy to take some missiles and finish in a war.

You say that because you are thinking rationally about it. A rare breed of people find attraction in the type of crazy needed to go against the tide. Most people prefer to zag I am going to zig. Who wants a Vegas wedding, I'll provide the ride. How much more lipstick do I have to put on this pig?
