[quote name='Locke' timestamp='1297997240' post='2637184'] If 5000 people decided to switch to wheat and lumber, an awful lot would be looking to switch away from it when they couldn't find any trades. That said, in this case I believe the selection is random, though the suggestion box topic on the issue proposed some versions with limited choice, balanced with cost. [/quote] I think if we were able to change our resources, a majority of people would find trade partners who they are close to and who are active. Then create whatever set they want. They would start out at a set that would benefit them financially, while mainly just collecting taxes, Then they would probably coordinate their infra jumps all together and switch their resources to a infra cost reduction set, then switch back 7 days later to the trade set that gives them more money. Then in times of war, they would all coordinate and change to a military set. The hardcore players would probably coordinate and change their resources every 20 days to maximize their collection on the 20th day and reduce their bills while paying bills for the first 20 days. Other than it making certain resources and trade sets irrelevant I am not sure if their is a downside. It adds a whole new strategy to the game.

I didn't read everyone post in this topic so I will probably repeat what others have said. [quote]) You can purchase up to 100 levels of infras and land at a time instead of 50. (not really a big deal) 2) Nations start out with $5 million startup funds instead of $1 million. (neat) 3) Wars last for 5 days instead of 7 days. (interesting) 4) Nations can change their native resources once every 7 days for free. You can change them immediately after creating your nation instead of having to reroll. Trades get automatically updated to reflect a nation's resource change, so if you're trading for Sugar and Cattle and your trade partner changes to Rubber and Oil now you get Rubber and Oil. (magnificent or chaotic, depends on how you coordinate) 5) Added peak infrastructure and peak land purchased. If your land or infrastructure fall below your peak levels (minus 100 so that you can't cheat) then the purchase cost to replace it is reduced by 50%. 6) Global Radiation Level will be based off of the last 15 days rather than 30 days. 7) The techmod has been increased from 0.01% to 0.1%. 8) The Manhattan Project wonder cost has been increased from $2 million to $5 million. 9) The donation bonus amounts have been doubled.[/quote] #1 - This should definately be part of standard edition, it would save a lot of time doing the monotonous task of doing a 1000 infra jump #2 - I think this should be left in TE - This is perfect for TE but not good for SE #3 - Again, this is great for TE but not for SE #4 - Hmmm... I think this is great for TE since it is not a long term game, for standard, I am not sure. I know I would love it if I could find a permanent trade circle with close friends but overall for the game I am unsure if it would be a good thing. I think it would certain resources and trade sets irrelevant among other issues which I wont get into now. #5 - This is great for TE but not good for SE as it would make it a lot easier to rebuild after war, which I don't think would be good for the game. #6 - I don't feel this would be good for SE #7 - I don't feel this would be good for SE Either #8 - Not a fan of this for TE #9 - Definately good for TE & Would be good for SE. It Think it would bring in a lot more money for the game.

[quote name='Freelancer' timestamp='1297690704' post='2632911'] No need for pissing match Ace and RailForge, we all choose the path that best suited our members and alliance goals, what were seeing here is the unfortunate reality of WAR, we were all taught well, we paid attention to Fox News and MSNBC [/quote] Freelancer, I can't believe I am saying this, but you are right.

[quote name='RailForge' timestamp='1297689987' post='2632898'] LOL, Aurora Borealis. Aren't you and yours the same scum who tried to coup our fellow SuperFriend, Monos Archein? [/quote] You shouldn't speak if you know nothing of the situation. That whole situation was handled poorly by people on both sides. There was no coup attempt, and Kaitlin (As far as she has told me) and I are over the whole thing. Is that all you got? Dig a little further and talk some more about the past which you know nothing of, I find it rather humorous.

All I have to say to this is it does not surprise me in the least that Xiphosis is involved in this.

Congrats on 5 years GPA!!!

I would say a good time to start buying is either 4999 infrastructure, 5999 at the absolute latest.

I am selling a $25 Donation, Payment must be made in [u][b]TECH ONLY[/b][/u]. PM me with offers, BEST OFFER GETS THE DEAL http://www.cybernations.net/nation_drill_display.asp?Nation_ID=134438

[quote name='AAAAAAAAAAGGGG' timestamp='1297192323' post='2625913'] A better stat would be how many days you go without your SDI blocking any nukes. Gone 2 days in a row without blocking any now [/quote] In this past war, My sdi only thwarted one nuke the whole time, I was not keeping track and don't intend on figuring it out, but I probably went around 8 or 9 days in a row without my SDI thwarting anything.

[quote name='Trinite' timestamp='1297198479' post='2626011'] I really wanted to delay peace until Alex got battle support . [/quote] Battle support was not going to happen. I still had 50 naval vessels left when peace was declared. it would have taken hellas and ethan 2-3 weeks to wipe out all of my navy in order to get battle support. Our wars would have expired long before that and he would not be able to re-declare. I did realize that is what they were aiming for when both nations used all 3 of their naval attacks on me.

Nice war, Glad it's over though. It was fun

[quote name='Bob Janova' timestamp='1296913900' post='2620446'] Except the guy will probably sell land to avoid BS like mine did, since he'll be smashed down to 1000 pretty fast anyway. That's kind of an exploit really. [/quote] No, I did not. I fought against the top two spartan nations without turtling or selling anything. I considered turtling. Both Nations were WAY bigger than I was, Turtling would have been the smart thing to do. Neither of the 2 nations that declared on me were able to do so based on the percentage of 76% they were able to declare based on the -250 nation ranking. It is over now and I had a good time, rebuilding will be fun too. Good Fight Hellas and Ethan the Lionheart.

[quote name='The MVP' timestamp='1296883953' post='2619957'] Looks like Sparta's getting dealt with if they need two major aqua alliances to help them out. [/quote] You hit the nail on the head

NICE NUKE, I would hate to be on the other end of that... Wait a minute, Oh crap!!!

[quote name='Hyperion321' timestamp='1296597565' post='2615053'] Well it's about damn time. I assume Ace will be rejoining you after the war then? [/quote] nah, I thought I'd join sparta

Congratulations Kaitlink

Congratulations on 3 years, I am very glad to see Monos Archein still standing strong

OMG, I knew it was going to be something Obvious. I checked everything EXCEPT the GC’s. To be honest I do not even remember buying them. Now I am embarrassed, Thanks again And hopefully this will be deleted to prevent me from further humiliation.

I am not sure when it happened but my income decreased dramatically. See stats below: As of 5/15/2010 107.89 happy, 225,873 working citizens, 17,999.99 Infrastructure, 8003.22 technology, 10,203.59 land, 1.67 Global Radiation, 121,504.17 nation strength, 60 aircrafts, 67000 Soldiers, $177.23 Avg. Individual Income Taxes Paid Per Day 19,231,105.52 Daily Bills, 40,031,471.79 Daily Collection Daily Profit 20,800,366.27 As of 08/28/10 102.18 Happy, 230,664 Working Citizens, 18,999.99 Infrastructure, 9950.22 technology, 12,168.72 Land, 5.08 global Radiation, 136,682.17 Nation Strength, 60 Aircrafts, 67,150 Soldiers, $100.66 Avg. individual Income taxes paid per day, $21,085,943.80 Daily Bills, $23,218,638.24 Daily Collection Daily Profit $2,132,694.44 My time on CN has been limited but a couple weeks ago I noticed my collection has decreased substantially, due to limited time I have not had time to look into it until now. At that time I was still at 17,999 infrastructure. I am not sure if I missed a game update log or not, I am pretty clueless as to why. I have not changed my tax collection or anything else. I understand global radiation is much higher now than it was in May but it never had this much of an impact. Maybe I am overlooking something silly but I can't seem to figure it out.

Edit: Figured it out.
