  1. Does that mean GPA can collect the bounty on Buckaroo and COMECON?
  2. Giving gold or anything a value is very tricky and you are quite right when you say it all depends. From electrical point of view it is quite valuable although silver i almost as good and it useful is narrow because of it´s high price. For jewelry it is pretty metal, very easy to use, has nice color and has symbolic meaning for people so that makes it valuable to them. From rarity on earth point of view it is somewhere in the middle of the scale so not really a big deal. The fact cold does not corrode very easily and is resistant to many acids has some usefulness and uses, but it is also quite soft and heavy metal with a low melting point. The value of gold is rooted in its medium rarity, easily handling, easy smelting, non-corrosiveness, distinct colour and non-reactiveness to other elements; qualities most other metals lack. The main point that gives gold some value in my eyes is that it has a unique combination of properties which can be found in other metals also but those metals are usually even harder to find, plus people have already given gold it´s nowadays quite high monetary value.
  3. Why no body wants to look at this from this angle: how much would buyer need to pay for tech when he would need to buy it directly in-game and not from another player, take 1/4 of that price or 1/2 and you get a fair price :lol1: With no change to game mechanics i don´t see a reason not to sell tech at 6mil for 200 or 100, or with FAC 9mil for 200 or 100 tech even 9mil for 300 tech would sound fair enough to me. I think the slot efficiency is the main reason for the current prices and it is a good reason.
  4. I smile every single time when i hear the original versions of those on the radio. So thank you, Sir Paul :D .
  5. If you really would be asking for revolution then you would be asking for whole game wide reset of nations. That would be truely revolutionary if every nation no matter how old would have to start from the same place. Failing that it will always stay the same: older nations will hold the power and younger ones will be willing or un-willing tech farms.
  6. Really enjoyed reading this topic. Like a great comedy it just don´t want to end.
