I played like a noob... had to go run an errand with 2 hours to go. Got home with 30 minutes left, put stuff on market for resell, and got busy with something else. Lost $3mil net (stuff must have sold) trying to make $5 mil.. Stupid. Still, it was fun to get to play demo for the first time in awhile. Usually I get screwed with when trying to play a different strategy, so thanks to everyone for leaving me alone.

Congrats to the winner and everyone in top 19-20! Got to include me and ford in there!

I was rooting for you. If I remember correctly you still won out on every grab thanks to ghost acres so they weren't terrible.

I would have done it a little differently, but it didn't work out bad for you by any means.

The ghost acres can be seen as a plus, but spending all that money on buildings just to lose them, plus military for 2 hits and any resources on hand...if you only end up netting 700 acres or whatever it's not worth it...especially when you think you could have gained more than that just hitting bots who won't retal...just a thought

When WWWBAYROCKCHEATSCOM hit me and I retaled, I came out with a 400 acre gain after ghosts, but I calculated I probably lost over 2 million from my final networth. Of course land trades are worse for a techer than for any other government.

GDI Membership Details
The Global Defense Initiative (GDI) is an open organization dedicated to the protection of our members. As a member of GDI, you will receive the protection of GDI forces. Unless you have attacked a country twice or more, that country will only be able to commit the following attacks or harmful spy ops against you: standard strikes, planned strikes, bomb banks, burn oil, and burn bushels. However, we require your assistance in return. You will be required to pay $5 per acre of land you own to the GDI fund as long as you are with us. In addition, you will not be allowed to commit offensive acts which are not standard strikes, planned strikes, or beneficial spy ops against other countries unless they have attacked you more than once. You can only join GDI if you haven't attacked or done a harmful spy op and cannot leave after joining. In the final six hours of the game, you will not be able to engage in any offensive actions against countries that have not hit you at least once.

Then don't join GDI and see what happens.

You're looking at this wrong anyway. Even though rounds end at 8pm EST, you should really view the round as ending somewhere around 6-7pm EST, because by then GDI starts to tighten who you can hit around your networth. Think of the last 2 hours as "quiet time" to gather yourself before the round is finally over and rankings are established. But as far as strikes are concerned, that 'ended' at 6pm EST. So your round has actually ended at 6pm. So you ought to have planned around the round ending earlier, instead of whining.

Actually it's the last 6 hours of the game. I believe this was implemented because people like you who weren't going to win would go off FUBARing people trying to drag them down, either to make yourself finish 'better', or simply to stop someone else from finishing 'great' out of envy(this is the real problem). Also, at that stage of the set people go into finish/jump-mode and so they can become relatively weak or loaded with resources and so a form of protection was offered. I think more people than not like this because there are already enough ways for the jackals to ruin sets and we know if they could, they would. If you're looking to attack at the stage of the game you probably don't know what you're doing net-wise and aren't going to win anyway because attacking at that stage isn't all too beneficial...one point is some people you'd piss off and they'd just war you in the final hour, another point is if you gained $60mil, but lost like 400k jets, that'd only basically replace your losses, so what did you gain? Some land? You'd spend money on building land in the last few hours and also drop tech%? That's a waste as your new land wouldn't out-produce what you spent in most cases, and you'd have higher net putting that money to MUs at that time.

Note: If a target has hit YOU at least once in the set then they're not protected by GDI in the final 6 hours from YOU.

There are so many variables in this game (that you obviously still don't understand).
I was speaking strictly from my current strategy which is a Techer. By the 6 hour window I've not grown in almost two days and probably still have my stock on the market. I won't even be using turns, so again... it wouldn't hardly hurt.
The only real issue it would give me is the timing of my destock as you've now shrunk my PM and the replenishment rate.

If I played Casher/Farmer/Oiler/Indy that relied on production up until the end, then yes you're stupid grab would hurt me. And again i'd laugh at you.

Why do I laugh?
Because, I'd finish better than you. You're using turns to grab with 6 hours left in the set... Not efficient.

You would think someone like yourself who has played this server consistently for so long, would wonder what they aren't doing right? Why they are consistently finishing sub 20m, and never able to take it to the next level?

But instead, you continue your antics... RoR like an idiot, and want to grab in the waning hours of the game. Congratulations!

I'll take my "babysitting" that was made just for the special people like you, you know... the ones that don't have a clue.

Oh, and if you did understand all of this... and you do what you do just because you like being a pain. Congratulations again... you're just an asshole that's helped slowly contribute to the decline of this game.
