Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

I think you should delete him unless he either reduces bushel price to 32, or releases book 3 immediately as is.

I actually was still in range before declaring war, so I already had the op. I had 1 or 2 days of hits in before he came back alive, so I knew what I was getting in to. Roll of the dice, see what happens this round.

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.

He took most of it from a guy down at the bottom. Maybe I should have whacked him a time or two? ;)

Part one of a 3 part response completed. Now I’m having fun.

Says the guy that generally makes a living off of farming good players. How did that work out last set? You're out here losing your mind over a couple DHs. As long as you're having fun I guess...

You're too modest, Patrick! I can tell by your writing style that it is you. Can you confirm the release date of your 3rd book? Glad to have you here among us!

Ive been playing primary(standard) since the late 90s young man.

Same here. Same for most anyone playing these days. Wish I was still a young man. Then you should know the retal window for primary is 60 days.

then... one day... when every single person in my game has felt my warmth, i will grant them forgiveness for being what they are... what they all are

You should try writing romantic books that women read. Would have sped up the last 5 days I spent sick AF with Covid.

Send a message to Patrick telling him he owes you book 3. He loves those.

I prepared for that, last couple sets food availability was inconsistent and expensive at times, so i decided to keep the farms i get from grabbing this set, it's paying off, i haven't paid over 36 for food yet and i have plenty to be able to run turns and whenever i see a cheap batch I'll buy it all.

Tournament, by definition, is a series of connected sets. This was moreso the case when we used the whole alphabet over multiple levels, but still holds true.

When I get pushed out of A for some shenanigans, I expect to be able to get back to A and even the score. It's all in good fun.

I've always enjoyed the Wild West nature of Tourney, and the odd behavior that results from that by-any-means necessary mentality. So long as there was no coordination in his attacks, which I don't think there was, I think SF's actions were well within the realm of what goes for normal behavior on this server. That is not an endorsement of his tactics, but I dont think it's a purple offense.

Also, as others have mentioned, I don't think you should be able to change your name in Tourney without dropping back to B/C.

n00b!

Thank you :P

I didn't login in the last hour an half because I was busy with RL so i didn't get to burn a possible billion that would have been available if my overstock oil sold, of course possible doesn't mean it happened, it was 25 minutes after game ended that i realized the game ended lol

Sold almost 3 millions tanks. Had 29 million NW in the bag. Your oil wouldn't have saved you ;) oh well... I've screwed up worse here. /End hijack

Rude!!! Everythung is in stock. Not to mention if you don't like paying 4k+ tpp, imagine what you'd be paying for it when you factor in the returns on your PS with loss of jets and oil. Much cheaper to let us keep pumping it out for you.

How's about you get some military on the market? ;)

im literally putting it on as soon as it sells. Larger batch is hitting in 2.5 & 3.5 hours. Smaller batch in about 5 hours from the stuff that just sold.

I'm here to provide for the people.
