Do you have people working for you, Dibs?

change for change's sake is pointless. what the game really needs are players. :P

If there is no need to stock bushels, the market will stay bellow 40, likely between the private market sell price of 32 and the break even public price of 35/36, as it does during the first few weeks of the set.

It would mean a 30% revenue cut (more or less) for farmers during those times price usually go over 50.

Anyway, I already had my say over this. :)

the important question is:

wtfluff is evony? :P

qzjul, I am not really getting what you are thinking.

It doesn't matter if the war tags are running 7k to 16k acres farmers by middle set. What matters is that the income of around 80% of most war tags mid-set will be hit pretty hard by that change. We war as farmers for a reason (c-indy have crap costs, crap income and crap tech; we can't tech with turns we use to attack and tech is going to crap prices by mid set, even more if your country can't really grow because you are doing war hits; too many oilers kill the market; cashers always are fluffed when they lose population no matter the attack type and tyr casher is a really an awful strat), not because we really like it (if we did, our best players would not start the set as techers).

For that matter, the rep/land to techer strat used by SOF and other smart tags in war sets as a way for vet players to continue playing doing well while having little time on hand will also be screwed because they won't have the advantage of destocking (their cheaply acquired bushels due to early stocking, btw) at inflated bushel prices mid-set.

Anyway, I need to stay retired some more and stop posting on threads like that. :P

And Dibs Ludicrous? Stop being emo about stuff you don't like. :P

Most science is funded by governments at one moment or another, klown, with good results, I might add. Who funds the study does not matter as long as there is no interference with the result.

Either way, if you guys (as an economical and/or ideological group) are not happy with the results, the solution is not to put up stupid fluffs that aren't weather scientists (or related fields) to spell atechnical crap on TV/press. That only make your position look bad.

Try to get better science done, following the scientific method. Then publish it, submitting it to review by the scientific community.

That is how real solid science is done.

farmers currently don't sell food mid set really.... so it won't affect a farmers income
-------------------------

wtfluff have you been smoking? :P

what strat do you think 80% of tags at war are running middle set?

Do you tell medical doctors how to do their job?

This whole "controversy" reminds me a lot of "If You Don'T Have Facts Or Law, Hammer On The Table".

The correct answer, if there is any, to science you disagree with can only be more and better science.

I think you got the dagga equivalent of being rickrolled, torment :P

It is not a personal responsibility issue.

It is a consumer information issue and control over lending practices.

It is amazing how many people fail at math and don't know the damage they are doing to their finances by simply not contracting a loan in a bank to pay their credit card balance. Most people here know people like that, likely in their own family. :P

Better information should help with that.

Regarding the interest rates changes, that will make the contract less one sided. It is a move toward a more classical view of a contract, infact.

...

There are scientists and the scientific method for a reason.

Why should you care about what uneducated people you don't even know think?

Be less emotional and more rational.

It is a bad idea.

And it radically alters the game, and not by only screwing farmers (which will hit war tags hard).

Only up side of it is that it makes the game a lot simpler. If we can say that is an upside.

Unions are obsolete until you get screwed by your employer and need help.

One of the ironical things is that people in the USA have some of the worse labor conditions I ever heard of for legal workers among developed and even some developing countries, if our earth2025 IRC experience is to be believed. And most there have a bad view of unions.

Go figure.

threads like this make me go lol

I hope the game isn't unrecognizable by the time I unretire.

*fluffes mitch*

I hope things work out for you, mitch.

whining about a picture is just awesome. :D

PS: martian fails :P

If we really stop to think about this, it is a stupid question.

We don't need more legal drugs, we need less of them. So no.

I bet it is going to be ignored and off-topic threads will go in the AT board :P

say no to TAN
