  1. brb, buying Moon Landing to help in the war efforts.
  2. Ayyyy, been a while since we've had a war like this. Let's have some fun
  3. 100% this - it’s foolish to assume that these nations deleting would be the end of banking. It would suck for Seb, but this is not the solution.
  4. Ah, how about this then for a fun hypothetical so if as a result of this moderation action t$ decides to delete and leave the game - we easily meet that same criteria where we have regularly taken loans of substantial numbers to help growth while not impacting internal capital. If we left and had 40bil in outstanding loans would that also constitute a need for repayment? Or is your argument that just because a lot of people rage quit the value of numbers involved is more relevant? edit: nothing about this would have killed in game banking and making leaps that alliances not even affected by the moderation action directly are also eligible just seems ridiculous. It sucks don’t get me wrong, but this does not feel like an appropriate way to fix the (non-existent) problem...
  5. Furthermore the moderation action is not what caused them to be unable to pay. The fact that those alliances chose to quit over it is not your decision and rests entirely on them. I’ve lost billions historically from players noping out and quitting based on rules changes and other such situations - this is a very dangerous precedent to set and I sincerely and seriously urge you to reconsider this. BK and GotG are not even directly impacted by the moderation action so why would you include them in this? Edit: To Alex above - if they didn’t cheat they also wouldn’t have the ability to pay it back presumably and even in their state they could have chosen to stay around and likely pay off their debts. Then choosing to quit does not constitute a valid reason for moderation intervention in this manner and thinking that this one action would have killed banning in the game is a complete overreaction.
  6. For myself, I’m happy to speak for t$ govt (not officially cause retired but w/e) and state that if there are more instances than the two that have been mentioned reach out to Leopold, another exec member, or myself. We’ll have a very direct chat and make it clear that doing so purposefully is unacceptable and if accidental to ensure it is not used going forward. While finding out exploits and reporting them to Alex is something we’ve often done, having them purposefully used by our members for gameplay benefits is not something we would ever condone and we are very pleased that self-reporting had already occurred to Alex by our members before this thread was even created.
  7. My biggest question around these questions is that implementation would be incredibly complex as we already have alliances with much more than their cap in either their main bank or an offshore. How would that possible be implemented? Will it be that what currently exists will be grandfathered in? In which case people will just stock up their offshore in advance and then only pull out what they need basically allowing a level or circumvention. The alternative would be forcing the money out of the bank above the cap which would go into presumable the oldest leader or something along those lines. All that would do would allow raiders to know exactly who they need to hit and when to guarantee a lovey prize package and potentially globally derail alliance economies. The limits either would need to be high enough that they aren’t worthwhile, or there would need to be a way to manage the implementation without making it pointless to do so. That being said I don’t see a need for this sort of fix at all. If the issue is invulnerable offshores then make a limit for alliances, either score or city wise. If leaving an alliance would cause what remains to drop below it should ask for confirmation and if confirmed anything in the bank is transferred to the nation remaining (oldest seniority leader if multiple) and the alliance is dissolved. Edit: The 1n growing bank cap is actually a pretty cool idea that requires alliances investment and makes offshores much more unsustainable.
  8. And here was hoping I might have been able to get it!
  9. If only it wasn’t such a massive cluster**** tbh. I can’t believe I read it all. So much drama Finishing it, all I have to say is:
  10. t$ did this back when Jess was around and we proved up to 5 I believe (that was our testing pool). When it was reported to Alex I believe the suggestion was to implement a random time delay of 2-5 seconds on each war declaration to remove the ability to plan it out. I can't recall off the top of my head if that was implemented but don't recall seeing this used for war dec's anytime recently.
  11. I've retired and Utmos is replacing me. Oh, and Leopold is getting my office. But really, our corporate theme is a good read ?
  12. Don't worry, I've got reduced activity but i'll still be around
  13. Investor Contact: Leopold von Habsburg Media Contact: Hilmes SYNDICATE, INC., ANNOUNCES EXECUTIVE OFFICE ALTERATIONS NASSAU, Bahamas, 2017-06-08: SYNDICATE, Inc., (NYSE:SCC) is sad to announce that after a period of strong growth and record profits the long-serving Chief Finance and Security Officer Timmy will now step down from his 18-month term in this position. Starting from a quiet accounting position Timmy quickly rose through the ranks to become the Director of Finance before stepping into the CFO and CSO position following the sudden retirement of the infamous Jessica Rabbit. The Syndicate would like to acknowledge the work done by Timmy in ensuring high investor returns, and his key strategic economic moves. His improvements to our IP protection technology and the success of our Security team is also to be lauded, though most importantly the surprising lack of scandals during his time as an Executive Officer. Timmy will, therefore, join the esteemable ranks of the other respected company Directors such as Zed, Chaunce, and Wilhelm the Demented, along with being entitled to the sizable retainer provided for the advisory skills associated with such a position. Following the decision to vacate the highly desired water facing corner office, Timmy and the other Executive Officers met and have made the decision to confer this position to Utmos, the current Vice President of Infringement. Known for his sharp mind and quick reactions, Utmos was originally identified by his skills as a Security Analyst within the wholly owned subsidiary The Enterprise, and quickly shoulder tapped and moved into one of the senior Security positions within The Syndicate. It should be noted though that the corner office has now been requisitioned by Chief Operations Officer, Leopold von Habsburg. The Enterprise, now coming up to its first anniversary is proud to announce a high level of success performing towards the top end of it’s expected operating margins. With the first intercompany management transfer being Utmos it is producing exceptional talent and we expect high profits as we come into the end of the financial year. The Syndicate believes Utmos will bring many talents to the Executive Team and look forward to welcoming him aboard as the new Chief Finance and Security Officer.
