If I wanted to do it, it would serve me right now to wait. People forget about the time factor.

In time, my friend, in time.

Again, at that level, there will be little chance of unaligned nations, so any attack would bring inter-alliance war.

Too bad proper conduct in these games disagrees with you. Don't worry, you'll learn soon enough. And you still haven't backed your claims up.

But you're forgetting that this nation would be part of a large alliance, and any attack on that nation would surely bring both alliances to war, and if a nation is making 1 billion a day, then all it would take is 3 nations to send one aid package, and then instant 500 score.

I'm not the one making the claim. It's not about "believing" you. It's about analyzing evidence. You have said you have evidence, but then refuse to show it. You have so far failed to back up your claims.

you still have not provided evidence, other than "I have super cereal sekret evidence"

Provided I have a massive nation send me a gigantic aid package, why wouldn't I be able to build up into the midtier? Suppose I have four nations send me a gigantic aid package... Obviously, this would require an end to sweetheart trade deals, and price floors and ceilings for trade deals. The aid would be limited, but it would not be limited at a minimal level. We just need several safeguards in place to prevent wholesale unbalancing of the economic system that brought PN. If this is not fixed, the game will become highly unbalanced, and will eventually have to be reset, at which point an aid cap will have to be implemented. There is no escaping this.

Let's see it.

Do you have any proof to back up your claim?

I see what you are saying, but picture this scenario. 1. Given alliance A has 100 members, member 1 has a huge level of development, and is making 1 billion a day. A second member has just joined the game, member 1 sends him 800 million. He can only buy a city every 10 days, but he can buy those two cities up to his hearts content with infrastructure, thereby joining the middle tier in 1 day, not to mention buying a huge military. Can't you see how this eventually causes the game to collapse on itself?

honestly, an aid cap is an easier solution than limiting all of that.

Care to expound why? infrastructure should be unlimited. I think in the future a hard limit on cities should be looked into, but an aid cap is currently the most pressing concern. If it is implemented soon, it won't have have too much of a negative shock.

How do you justify your opinion? I'm not sure if you are serious, I'm not going to lie, I have been playing these types of games for over 6 years. I have never come across someone like you, who would want to keep a broken system, just so their nation would have more pixels.

You are arguing that you would rather not fix an inherently unstable system, because your nation will benefit from it, regardless if it hurts the game as a whole. You are entitled to your opinion, but keep in mind it's rather selfish to want to keep a system that destroys the game, only because your nation will benefit.

No, keep viceroys. They should have never been outlawed.

Have you lost your mind?

Oh it's Grealind, I'm not surprised at all.

wars are always fun have at it! o/ rose

Never said it was. I said I hope it isn't the official policy of GPA.

Hopefully this isn't the official policy of the GPA government. I'll say this again in all caps, because a large portion of you still have not gotten it yet: SENDING RECRUITMENT MESSAGES TO NATIONS ON AAs IS CONSIDERED POACHING AND IS NOT ACCEPTED IN THESE TYPES OF GAMES, AND IT ALSO CAN BE USED AS A VALID CB. Again, you failed in your research abilities. I am not in SK.

You are gov (second in command) of UPN, so when you speak, you speak for the alliance, whether or not you think you do. Bolded: I know a few alliances that had this attitude, they didn't last long. Sending out recruitment messages to people on AAs (poaching) has always been considered a faux pas. Again, do your research before sending out a recruitment message.

alliance affiliation makes post. does UPN think poaching is an accepted practice? (news flash: your alliance is guilty of the same exact thing - and then arguing that it would continue the practice)

UPN should learn the same lesson No. Recruiting players who are on the AAs of other alliances has always been considered poaching, and deeply frowned upon. It is generally not a cause for a CB, unless there has been a history of it. Do your research before sending out messages. BoC was class enough to admit what they did was a mistake. Several other alliances here should learn accordingly.

Care to elaborate?
