didn't pay attention this set, busy on other servers

That would suck

Its Probably people coming over from other servers who forgot oil is different on express.

Lol at oil $599 on express. Its cheaper than that on private. Bots dont buy it. Hope whoever is doing an oil buyout knows oil is available on private on express.

Thought of another reason.. If you want to recall your goods.. you can just buy it back on public market. If you are a demo with 0% commission, its no loss. Much better than spending 3 turns.

There are reasons. If you are manipulating the market or preventing some1 else from profiting doing it.

Yes go to preferences at the bottom of main page and change it. This is a smart thing to do if you are playing the market and want certain kind of outcomes.

One of them # 20 is already dead. Some haven't played their turns.

Appreciate your time & effort. Thanks.

Can you fill me in on some missing relevant info? What's the continuity between elders, your clan and zigzag? Who and where are their offsprings and heirs continuing their legacy now? Where's Elves now? I don't have any background knowledge about all this politics. I am a 15 year returning player, played express last few sets. You can find me on express forums.
Would help to know who's who to figure out what's going on on this server.

It's good if they are real players. Not if they are multies created by cheaters. Somebody above already identified a string of 5 countries most likely created by 1 person.

If we got more human players coming over to express, that's exciting.

Alright 👍

Feels like we have too many countries this set for this time of the set. 100 countries made already. Usually we cross that figure on Wednesday or Thursday.

What's up with MountainYeti turning his public profile off again?

Lol. Good find.
We got some work for Galleri already.

Ok makes sense. Thanks.

Can anybody tell me what were the spirit rules? Was there anything more to it than what's posted above? I tried searching for it but can't find anything meaningful.

One of these days when I have made enough netting records, I will disguise as a bot and have me some fun :-D

Thanks
I mentioned it in the linked thread post

Yup, good info.

You can check the news of the country # that you want to grab and if u see lots of attacks on the country and no retal then u know it's a bot.

Hi new buddy. I was a new player myself 3 months ago n nobody told me bout bots. You cant find anything concrete about them on official earth pages or wiki. Theres good info posted on them on various forums, you gotta search for it. I believe some veteran top players close 2 devs have complete info. on them which gives them n their clan members unfair advantage. As a solo non clan member I have been able to gather the following
Rules governing bots:
They never attack 4 land, only explore. So you can SS n PS them forever without fear of retal.
They play their turns according to a predetermined script designed by devs. Meaning sometimes they make stupid decisions like buying overpriced tech, selling goods at ridiculous low prices. Bots' presence increases the pool of players n is supposed to make the game n public market more stable. It also creates safe space for human players who want to attack for land & grow without getting into a fight with other humans.
Bots have been given common strats to follow such as casher, farmer, techer, commy-indy etc. They follow these strats just as a human would n build the required types of buildings n buying required techs. I.e. if it's a casher bot, it builds Enterprise zones & residences n buys business n residence techs. They build out construction sites till they have 240 ( adjust if govt. type is Theo or dict) n spend rest of their turns exploring n building required types of buildings n buying military and tech as mandated by the script. Some are rainbow bots by design. Different servers have varying numbers of bots. Some don't have any. On express I believe there are about 30 bots.
I have got some good info. on how to identify bots in this thread:

Where was iiivan this set?

[quote poster=sfbob; 46077; 876507]

Maybe the 'stupid fascists' had actually priced it right if you couldn't sell it? [/quoteYe

Yes I know. Whining n trying 2 b funny, don't take it seriously.

Same here.
Also, was playing the oil markets and got stuck with 7 million barrels of high priced oil that wouldn't sell. Stupid unambitious fascists kept selling it too low. Had to use the oil to generate PM at the end. Made a loss on that trade.
Yeah, but was a fun set.

Thanks.
The way you are going, just a few more sets, you will be in the top 3 before you know it.

Buddy Invictus congrats on #11. That's still a good finish.

Congrats MountainYeti on # 1. I am number 3.
I feel this set was the trade wars. Many top players were trying to outdo each other in market cornering. Do you feel so MountainYeti?

Hi Buddy. On express you can SS n PS anybody as many times u want bc landgrabs r not considered harmful. But u can't do special harmful attacks like GS AB BR missiles first. However the country that you landgrabbed more than once has the freedom to do all of harmful attacks in return. And then you are allowed to do special attacks back. So the country being attacked gets the first go on doing special harmful attacks if u grab them more than once, which is a beneficial advantage to have. So the rationale is that most people will not consider receiving AB BR GS missiles in return for more than 1 landgrab worth the risk.

Galleri did you even look at the full video after 0:45?

Good finish.
You had a high NW/land ratio.

You must have bought tech in the last 3 hours then. I sold some tech below 1500 with 3 hours to go.

Ok. That was close for the #3 spot. GG.

Was it you going for the market cornering? I remember your 57M finish last set and thought I saw your fingerprints over similar movements in the market this set.
Why dont you make your profile public?

What happened? Y didnt you stick to your word?
You should have continued the boycott and not play your turns so I could finish # 1.

Good win beerdrinker.
This was a fun set. I front ran a market buyout and I think thrawted somebodys attempt to make $$ and corner the market. Still made some errors but this was a learning experience. Will take 3 - 4 more sets for me to be a pro at market manipulation.
I was supposed to log in about an hour before the end of set to make a profitable trade. But couldn't bc of real world time constraints. My NW would have been much higher. But , I am not complaining. There is always another set.

I wonder if MountainYeti played this set? And if # 1 # 91 were his countries?

Noticed GDI salesman didnt show up till the very end this set.

The set changed. Cant see anything from the old link. Let me get the new link for you:

https://www.eestats.com/express/oldcountry/1688/108

You are the woman with the powers?

Same way here. I used to play sometime 2001-2005. Dont exactly remember. Its blurry bc it was high school/college days. Remember playing with thousands or tens of thousand countries. Came back a couple of months ago. Now its a few 100 countries and a few dozen real players. But its mostly good people left. Game is still fun. Game is growing albeit from a low base. Check out the game history on wiki. Been thru lots of ups and downs but credit to the devs/admins for keeping it running. More interaction between players bc you preety much know all the good players.
Welcome back.

Poltergeist is one of the cult classics that I havent seen. I have been thru one of those experiences. Swear I was stuck in a temporal loop for one day. Have to experience it to believe it.

So you are this woman?

Whats up with # 93 and # 94?

Check out 459th round: Sep 10, 2018 - Sep 17, 2018

Same pattern.

I remember seeing your shark country near the top of the score page in the afternoon. When going thru the scores page again at the close of the set, did a double take when saw you at the bottom. Figured you must have sold yr mil and got no chance to log in to use your money.

I am at the top of people with open profiles so that makes me # 1.

If you are My dog says the craziest things (#88)
I wonder who is you like my beer belly # 58?

I took 7 times as much land on this retal but the 14 Acre one takes the cake.

I am off & on recreational lifter. I believe playing sports, doing manual jobs, strenous everyday activities are better for functional strength. Hate the Gym Rat culture. Just made this country name because it's a funny meme.
