  1. Perhaps a new poll about max. infra per city or a new world war would help to reduce food consumption.
  2. Wow. Everyone be careful. I'm sure these 25 votes on food prices will have a large impact on the future development of prices. Just make sure every food producer knows the result of this poll so they can adjust their prices because this is how a free market works.
  3. Hello @Alex, I think there is an error with the alliances API: The raw data however seems to be generated fine: Could you look into this, please? Thanks a lot.
  4. I generally agree that this would be an awesome feature. Unlike embargos set by alliances against other alliances however, I think implementing tariffs might be a bit difficult regarding programming and calculating.
  5. A planned economy has never worked. So in this simple market simulation the principles of a free market do apply. If there is a shortage in raws and prices increase further, at some point people will switch to the production of raws until there will be a new equilibrium. Simple as that, no need to interfere.
  6. Alliances are able to force their members pay taxes yet they should not be allowed to set embargos against other alliances? The individual freedom is that you can leave an alliance any time you want if you don't agree with that alliance's policies. This already applies for foreign and fiscal policies so why not for trading policies, too?
  7. Same applies for taxes I guess. In the end we are all pawns.
  8. So, is this suggestion still a thing? It would make trading and development of prices much more interesting if alliances could embargo entire other alliances.
  9. Let the nukes fly! Oh wait, you don't have any...
  10. First! Matters are created all the time by the mind. It's not a theory, it's a fact that some matters are stupid and some are not. The only collective illusion I know is the one that happened in East Germany and most of Eastern Europe. About the colors I'm not so sure. I see quite many colors every day.
  11. @Alex, given the many previously stated arguments for (and the few against) this extended embargo mechanism: Could you comment on whether such a new feature could be implemented in the game or whether this suggestion is off the table?
  12. Would it be difficult to add this feature to the game? Alliances would not be obliged but would have the opportunity to use it, similar to taxes. Taxes are handled by alliance leaders, too, so they don't have to ask members for donations on a regular base. As was mentioned before already, it's extremely difficult to manage an alliance-wide embargo against another alliance. Leaders can't even check members' active embargoes except for checking the activity list on the nation page.
  13. In addition to increasing the likelihood of conflicts and wars, embargoes set by alliances against alliances make the market more dynamic again. This would also somewhat address the issue of constantly decreasing market prices. If major alliances reduce the amount of available resources to other alliances, supply decreases and therefore prices increase. I don't think that alliance-wide trade policies imposed by alliance leaders reduce individual freedom in the slightest. If someone is unhappy with an embargo set by the alliance leader, he/she/zie/they/etc. can either communicate their disproval or leave the alliance as an act of their individual freedom, i.e. vote with their feet.
  14. Indeed there is no "normal price" since all prices are determined by supply and demand. Currently decreasing prices occur due to the large supply and prices may well increase again with the next war. The only thing that can be considered problematic is that some of the offers for large amounts of resources or money are fake offers. These offers are not backed by money or stockpiles and might influence prices one way or another.
