The 200k is 25% of the total tech Umbrella has and its was delivered in 9 months. I think those numbers speak louder than slot utilization any day of the week [/quote] Slot utilization > total tech.

Not to mention Umbrella probably imported ('delivered' if you want to compare) at least 200k tech this year. 25% of their total tech would be 200k like you said. Assuming their average nation is 4 years old (meaning this past year is 25% of their average nation's lifetime [which is also ridiculously overestimating their age]) that would mean they imported 200k tech this year. This also doesn't take into account the fact that this year was probably more productive for tech importing than their previous 3 years (again assuming each of their nations is 4 years old), and that they've lost tech from war over their lifetime. One thing you could detract is the addition of new nations to their alliance but I imagine that would be dwarfed by the previous assumptions that they are 4 years old on average, and not accounting for the tech they've lost in war. tl;dr - Umbrella has delivered more tech than NPO this year, not just per nation but in total. edit: Just checked UE's stats, they've increased 112k tech since Oct 25, 2010.

Yeah, some of them came from new members, but when you're talking about an alliance with less than 100 members versus an alliance with over 500 members, the fact that you're trying to argue how 500 members could move 200k tech and is better than a much smaller alliance (in terms of membership) who moved much much more than that in the same time period is absolutely hilarious. And in case you didn't look, Umbrella still has more tech than NPO. Edited January 4, 2011 by AAAAAAAAAAGGGG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very interesting to see a top member of the NPO econ team unable to comprehend the tech importation logistics. If your slot usage is 25% and Umbrella is closer to 90%, that would mean that Umbrella would have been able to import 3x your 200k (600k; then pro-rated for your 5x size advantage = 120,000) in the same timeframe. Too bad we imported closer to 426k tech (likely closer to 360,000 taking into account new members)... which is... oh wait... exactly x3 what you imported pro-rated (120,000 x 3 = 360,000). Umbrellas tech represents 50% of their NS. NPO is 22%. Even Sparta beats you there... same with average tech/nation. I think its important to remember that total alliance tech means absolutely nothing when it comes to individual battles.

Grämlins were a fantastic alliance back then, regardless of what happened to them in 2010. [/quote] They were a good alliance, yes. They were not however the Alliance of the Year. That would probably be the New Polar Order back then too. Everything anyone did had something to do with Electron Sponge and his machinations.

I just counted through MK's slots and we have about 12500 in tech growth over the last 10 day period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
