Xinhuan: Dict was a very serious netting gov't on this server. You can't just say oldman would have done better as a fascist farmer. For one thing, it is far more likely he would have been grabbed more early set if he went fascist. Having an I next to your country really helps scare away landgrabs. But even putting that benefit aside comparing the two govt's I think dict is the better gov't fairly clearly for farmer. For casher I think rep is clearly better.

Then you basically just proved to be that the Dict government is too strong and is rightly nerfed. It is too powerful in BOTH netting and warring, and no government should excel at both.
Also, yes I can say that oldman would have finished higher as Fascist because he went decay, and a Fascist maxes decay almost a week earlier. Even he agreed. While Dict's gain land faster, you forgot to mention that the -30% BPT meant he had to build over 100 more CSes compared to other people, turns that could have been used for grabbing or otherwise.
