One of the names of the war I've suggested is "Pax Pacifica". That is to say, KERCHTOG$ and BKNPO are locked in mortal combat and will be in such for some time.

Meanwhile, Astra and Farksphere are both outside the war and are unlikely to be engaged by at least BKNPO, which is "in control", because of Farksphere's role in resource provision.

 

So for quite a bit of the game, we are in peacetime. It's KERCHTOG$ and BKNPO's decision to make it so that they're not in peacetime.

Bruh. BKNPO has attacked not merely 'indirect resource providers' (neutrals) but in fact their own straight up direct treaty allies, on half a dozen separate occasions by now. Literally two thousand new taxfarm nations to resupply off of, and you think that they're economically dependent on farksphere?

And he was doing so well with his run down of events on the previous page, too.

Nope. Actually told tS/HS everything, and talking to a couple of them could vouch for that. But again, even if this was the truth, not the first time a major alliance would have done this. Partisan and Infinite Citadel once actually openly lied to MDoAP allies and got them rolled, or do you literally forget TKR/tS' past? 

I am starting a petition to give relief to our dear friend Keshav. This war has dragged on for months and months and he deserves a break. Therefore I am suggesting we create a "Keshavbot". 

I believe with just a few lines of code we can have Keshav's OWF posts fully automated by 2020! Here is an example:

 

if anybody { 'mentions NPO'};

then keshav ('brings up TKR from 3 years ago') 

 

if keshav = { 'has no argument' }

then keshav posts = ( 'passive aggressive emoji' )

When Syndisphere got forced back into the war, res prices spiked by roughly 50%. If you assume linearity (supply and demand curves don't really work like that), that implies that the supply of resources in-game dropped by 33%. Farksphere is roughly equivalent to the Syndisphere assets thrown in, or, in other words, resource supplies fall by at least another 50%.

 

A big problem with KERCHTOG$, or their strength if you look at it from the other perspective, is that they think they ARE the game. But when you recall that KT was bragging that they were winning while BK had more nations, KERCHTOG$ isn't the game. It's a small and vocal minority of players that comprised the traditional power elite of PnW. BKNPO represented more players, #1, #2, Farksphere's population is only slightly smaller than KERCHTOG's..

Or, alternatively, one can realize that the bulk of IQ are not using the market at all, and thus resource prices affect them in no way whatsoever; therefore, if anything, attacking Farksphere would be beneficial to IQ economically since they'd be able to therefore apply pressure to everyone that actually uses the market, I.E. their ideological enemies.

Which is why I run South America. Completely domestic missile, soldier and even plane production, oh yeah.
