Ooooh ouch. Remind me never to LG Bobby again...EVER!!!

That individual is running a very nice commie. I wonder why he never joined Gdi and why Is he making hits that he knows he will be getting hit back. Pehaps he wants to war?

I don't understand because the risk to gain ratio of those hits doesn't make sense and anyone who was seriously trying to net wouldn't make those hits at this early stage of the game.

Usually with under 2.5 weeks left you can make those hits based on some simple calculations to see if it is possible for them to retal. Now any good player can retal anyone else with this much time left in the set.

He would be a tough cookie. Not sure who 88 is though. He's a decent Indy player though.

Whoever it is should be called out for starting trouble with a top country for no reason. Mdina was top 20 when Cica attacked him and top 10 when he ROR'd. What's the reasoning behind these attacks? If it's just looking to ruin someone else's round then this person is the lowest of the low, especially considering it's Primary and a 60-day reset.

Yep, #162 is sure farming it up. As of starting trouble for no reason, maybe that's his idea of having a good time?

"Having a good time" by ruining a fellow top ten country's reset would be pretty lame.

I don't think you know what your talking about here. But yes I have gotten around 2k of virtually free land from this player. Who I'm 99% sure has quit and anyone can feel free to get in there and get some land. Especially since the loses are very minimal.

I've ran into a couple people that ROR cause they weren't happy about losing much more to my retal.

Also I'm pretty sure Blid is talking about players who are playing and ror ppl for legit retals. What I'm doing is called farming. Which inheritly carries its own risk as well.

Cica is new to primary: it's his first reset apparently and he didn't join GDI cause he didn't know about not being able to join after the first attack.

Oh yeah, was talking about Cica not you. The guy you hit, I think you're correct about.

He sure picked a good round to try primary as an Indy. Lol. Lots of top indies all took a set off to play something else at the same time creating a great Indy round so far.

Prediction for the set...

military prices are down to $136 jets/turrets average. Should expect it to fall nicely down to $100-110 in another 2 weeks.
food is still hovering around $36-40. With tech prices this depressed, techers might start stocking a bit later. So I'm guessing we'll see be seeing <$40 food for a couple more days at least.
Tech prices are rubbish (sorry techers out there, you have no shot this round).
Oil prices are surprisingly calm this set.

Indies should do well this set but likely to see a lower finish than usual due to the higher building costs although military prices this set are higher than usual and that might balance it out. We'll see.

We might get a big farmer finish if food spikes, which I believe will be spiking (soon). Watch this self fulfilling prophecy =P

Techers, like I mentioned previously, sorry, no shot at winning or top10.

This set's looking like a casher set again. The reps will dominate. If a demo can pull off some insane reselling, they might have a shot.

It's me and... yeah. I miraculously avoided war with the topfeeder and got to carry on, only for Cica to decide for reasons known only to him to attack me and then ROR. Now I made it even worse for myself by being sloppy on my next retal and bouncing. My only bounce of the round :P This set couldn't be more of a disaster than this. But I owe him another retal still since he ROR'd, and he'll probably just war me anyway. 60 days up in smoke for no reason

But truly a waste to war in primary such a big 2 months waste when all your trying to do is net.

Yah, don't know what this guy's deal is. I don't know why he attacked me at all, let alone why he ROR'd. I assume I'll be in war soon because I'm definitely hitting him again, ROR alone is enough reason to hit back twice but the fact that I bounced clinches it. I'm not moving on without getting my land back, and then he'll war me and beat me up :X Ppl that attack me during war will be dealt with if possible.

It's weird because it seems like actual malice on his part. He double tapped only a couple times, he didn't ROR Bobby. But without having any idea who I am (I assume), he specifically grabs me in an odd grab and then RORs. I really can't explain it.

Ya very weird considering where he was at with his set. He lost 1600 acres on the trade but I would have just chalked it up in the loss column, definitely wouldn't have ROR'd. Rook move. I say crush em blid

On a side note, I guess Rep Casher is going to win this set, since best demo casher is now going to press the WAR button.

I'm starting to think food could get decently high this set. Perhaps enough to let the farmers compete with the cashers. And the top C/I should have a shot too. Seems like a fairly balanced set, unless you are a techer.

I'm curious what the increase in demo cashers this set is about. Is there something in the rule changes to make demo>rep?

blid: Yea, not sure why he RoR you and not me.

Well the country with the most land is a theo casher, so I wouldn't guarantee rep will win.

At least 3 of the 5 biggest demos arent cashers - they're techers and farmers.

Casher wins, if oldman is playing a casher - oldman wins :)

And not in that order and also not really looking into the scores to much.

I am playing a good rep cashier but have my expenses only at -17.6% missed alot should be at 25.6% this set. Also never really read into the changes before I started. But simply to good of a cashier set right now not to do well.
