Walker Texas Ranger Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 For the 3-4 weeks, I've been getting one bad event after another. I have not had any to repeat, but after several months of no events at all, this latest string is very odd. It's destroying my daily income. Screenshot of current events. I've had a total of 6 bad events in the past 5 weeks. http://x25.xanga.com/5b0f377221633238306475/b188422342.bmp The event responses are: Option 1: Distribute aid to the bereaved and displaced. Population happiness -1, Citizen income -$3.00. Option 1: Impose trade sanctions with the nation responsible. Citizen income -$5.00. Option 1: Take action and build dams and levees in the areas prone to flooding. Citizen income -$5.00. The older 3 have already expired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My nation only ever suffers calamity and disaster. Edited March 31, 2009 by James Dahl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear that you have such bad luck/karma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHAYD Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 The event generator engine is known for giving some players a combo of bad events even though it is set on 50/50 chance of bad or good events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker Texas Ranger Posted March 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Should I not be concerned, considering from like Jan of last year until Dec of last year I had like 2 events total? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raskull Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 I just flipped this coin on my desk 6 times. It landed on heads 6 times in a row! It must be broken, there is supposed to be a 50/50 chance of heads or tails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must be broken, there is supposed to be a 50/50 chance of heads or tails. I SEE WHAT YOU DID WITH THAT. YOU COMPARED THE FACT I'VE GOTTEN 6 BAD EVENTS TO FLIPPING A COIN AND GETTING HEADS 6 TIMES. YOU HAVE VERY CLEARLY ILLUSTRATED YOUR POINT AND IN ESSENCE, MADE ME FEEL COMPLETELY STUPID FOR BEING CONCERNED THAT I WAS RECEIVING A LARGE NUMBER OF NEGATIVE EVENTS. NEXT TIME I NEED SOMETHING EXPLAINED, I'LL BE SURE TO ASK YOU. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH. YOU ARE TRULY AN ASSET TO YOUR ALLIANCE. THEY SHOULD BE PROUD TO HAVE SUCH AN EDUCATED, INTELLIGENT, METAPHORICALLY-INCLINED PERSON WITH THEM. OH MAN, YOU MADE MY DAY. In response to everyone else, thanks.
