Seriously. Over $400! If there was a skilled fascist oiler they'd be on the move right now.

There is and he is on the move. You know what hurts more than expensive oil? It is failing a grab after buying it. Or selling it and finding out the guy that bought it, bought it to hit you.

I calculated that 1 commie rig out produces 1 commie indy (at my indy tech%) if the price of oil is above $250. :/

Yah, I remember doing that calc last set when oil was going like $290 or so. For a casher I think it's much more complicated.

I cannot imagine someone buying oil for $980.

damn people lol just build some rigs. I know i send out about 3.3 rigs a day. So i built roughly 1.5k rigs. that's 3k barrels per turns x about 54 turns a day. That'll be a bit more than enough. Some of you are really fat so i'm sure you can afford to put a few acres for rigs.

the only people that still shouldn't build rigs are techers or mbr. That being said theres no mbr right now lol. And tech prices are also high

dropping? everytime i log in it seems like it's higher. It was bout 23-2400 and now i don't see anything below 2500 for bus/res.

weapons went from 2200 to 2900. it's not dropping my friend. Maybe for a couple hours due to rush of techers placing their tech on market.

I refuse to sell below 2600, I rather have it returned and then try again next batch.

lol

OK so, on day 23 7.5m barrels of oil sold. avg price was about $350. but now sales are down to about 4m because barrels are too expensive. oilers selling for this high, if there's any oilers doing it and not resellers, are dumb, because they just gonna convince everyone to make their own rigs or stop attacking.

lol at $820 per barrel. I'm at around 30k acres and not a fascist. If i was to make oil with all 30k acres that means a production of 60k per turn 60k*820= ~25mil per turn lmao. That's insane!!! I can't even make that much if i'm a casher with max tech lol. A fascist would be making $40 mil per turn right now.
Food prices are also high. If a fascist don't make it to the top10 soon. I'd say there's some dum dum running fascist around here lmao

I wonder how long prices will stay like this for.... I'm sure all the indies have converted 1-1.5k of rigs.

Not a lot of good players want to go oiler or fascist is the problem. A round like this might change some minds.

doesn't change my mind. It's kinda a gamble. The other strats are a lot more consistent. I guess i can gamble next set.

in those couple weeks, an oiler would make billions lol. You don't need much land to make 1 mil barrels a day. At 1 mil barrels, right now it is worth well over $500mil. Even if i'm not fascist I should just build 10k acres of rigs and i should make I mil barrels a day to sell lol

NOOB! lol But if you have oil and you hit with 4-8 mill jets or whatever that would use up a fair bit of oil so you would only be able to sell half of it i guess? How much oil does say 1 mil jets use, ive never checked :P

so 40k. right now i'm producing 3.6k per turn. Which is enough for me to attack everyday with a little bit left over. I might bump the production up to 6k per turn and sell some. :) It would be nice to get an extra $100mil per day. I gotta do my math to see if it's worth the acrage

At the price it is now it would be worth it but im guessing if 9-10 ppl done that it would just bring the price down anyway.

yeah, I was thinking of selling only like 200k a day. Which shouldn't really affect anything since people's military gets bigger everyday

Yeah true. Just looking at the market and its back to 499 which is a bargain compared to 980 or whatever it sold at! I would never spend that on oil lol Also there is no turrets/tanks on the market? So many commies and so few military.
