Population now cost 6 GCs?!!?!

You certainly have your work cut out for you hey Andy

Andy, have you bumped your head?

<!-Quote-!>Quote:

Showing a declining graph of the last 6 days is not exactly a truthful presentation of the facts.<!-/Quote-!>

See Andy, I like how you try to make seem as if I am doing something wrong or juking the stats to support my statement.

But...

1. That is how far back you allow us to see. I do not control that, you all do.

2. The facts of this present themselves. The graph supplied by you has data recorded and eclipsed by you. I cannot change the values presented in the graph.

3. I actually did try to keep on topic and not let anyone become misled by the reflection of my CEO's being sold.

I actually said "Disregard the Large drop I just sold 2 CEO's....

But look at the slope and the rate of decrease.}

I only presented the graph you suppl

Maybe I did bump my head when I read your previous comment on the declining values. I fainted.

I did not want to start any discussion on the huge increase in the value of assets in the game. I was surprised that you, as one of the main beneficiaries, started it.

Gold coins are now 80B down from 4.7T very long time ago and 450B more recently.
the values of corporations always fluctuated with the profitability of corporations independent of that exchange rate.
The reduction long term is the result of the rate change but not percentage point by percentage point.
At some time the rate declined and corporate values increased and at other times, like recently, corporate values caught up with the rates.

we are not turning the volume. There are many parameters in this game and this is what makes it what it is. A game with 6 parameters is easier. this one has 6.000. maybe much too complex.

Long term, corporate values

Without diverting from the main distortion you continue feeding an ignorant populace.

Explain how selling the the bulk of my coins when they were 400-600B a pop for !1! Gold Coin was some benefit or benefit or how I was a beneficiary when you tanked the GC price soon after all the way down to <100 Billion each? I had 1.4 Quadrillion in cash back then and sold way high. Actually by selling most of them before the decline, I was literally shooting myself in the foot.

You keep bringing the conversation to a place and point that was irrelevant to anything I originally posted here. I hope this example above demonstrates that the statement you are making is completely wrong and a distortion of fact at best. Now, this is getting nowhere fast, and is getting way off from the point of my original post.

Please.... without going off on a tangent about anything other than the point.

You made a statement that placed me in

My account value also dropped. https://www.simcountry.com/cgi-bin/cgi2nova?SN_ADDRESS=wwwPortal&SN_METHOD=uah_graph&miTable=uah&miKey=20020708072017002020&miColumn=uahAccountValueGC.
It was around 46,000 about 2 weeks ago.

Andy, in laymen terms are you saying that our account value has dropped because the value of GC has dropped? If so, then technically our account value is still the same.

I think the problem here is that we are getting away from the time frame mentioned. But if we should go far back 30 days will likely show the same trend, but a year ago changes the entire context of the conversation, and was not what I was intending to discuss.

I hope that clears this up.

30 days?
no, the last 30 days saw a correction.

you know what it was several months ago or a year.
you know that all the cash you had, many trillions, in the account, the countries and the corporations, increased its value in gold coins over the last year. Also all the products in stock increased in value, the army etc. The value of the account exploded.

I am not blaming you of this.
we pushed the rates down and made many people much richer and we do not complain.

My comment related to showing a decline in the value over the last 7 days. It is a wrong presentation of the facts.
check the assets in the history tables.

The total world assets as they show on the scroll bar on the portal page are now showing $1.14M. This used to be 320K.

The entire increase is due to the appreciation of the value of game money, even though the base value of countries went down from 50T to 24T.
(this is a dec

Why are talking about account values?

I'm not much bothered by the value of my account, I would rather have liquid assets with which I can do things, buy things, expand, do more in space, have a stronger military/defence, run 300m countries and so on and so on.

Recently, like Wendy and Keto, I see falling account assets, I wouldn't like to say about comparing it now to a year ago as obviously I have grown my account in that time so it would be impossible to say whether any increase was due to game mechanics or my growing. This must apply to any account of a year or more old (except maybe nix's lol) so I'm not sure how you see what you do see Andy.

Anyway, as my purchasing power is erased, so is my enjoyment of the game, rich fat capitalist that I am, so this is what I see as the fundamental issue with the direction you are going. Who wants high value accounts but no $$$ to do anything?

Still no graph.

Andy I still appreciate your effort though.

If GC is not rising at the same rate that the account assets are decreasing in the same time frame, the decline is outside of the correction from GC. They've been rather stable between 80-90B A far cry from what the graph says.

The increase/decrease is artificial as it is moved by whatever the par for GC is that pleases you. This decline goes far out of the influence of GC.

You are battling with the graph, not me. The slope is down, then the value is down. If GC has not Risen in value to the tune of 20ish% than this decline is unjustified and represents real loss. Not market fluctuation. Nothing really more to say.

This is the argument we have in America and in Europe. You have turned a stable SC dollar with a fixed value into a fiat currency by allowing the price of Gc that backs the SC dollar to float, influenced by none other than central banks

See the problems of allowing people to earn loads of GC and sell them for real assets Andy? Now you're having them think they are entitled to that earnings and dont like it diminished.

I think the real important question is this. If you and us as players have gone through this extended era of decreasing GC why on earth are you attempting to offset those artificial decreases by raising the price of goods?

I mean what was the point then? It appears you wanted to decrease GC value but now you want to equate everything relative to what it used to be. Won't all this be a waste of time then? Why all this suffering and the slow and grueling pace of this progress to where you guys are satisfied?

And don't be fooled. Account Values have not increased in Value, This is hyperinflation is all you did by stepping in as a central bank does to weaken their currency so that the "internal economy(e.g. supply fairy)" could get a boost from exports, sim coins, goods, etc. traded to players.

In all reality no values went up at all. By killing the Gold Coin, the SC Dollar is suffering from hyper inflation. T

And to be really honest, CC this has absolutely nothing to do with the Sale of any asset gained in Sim for real money. You are the only person to consistently stamp that comment into every discussion of country profitability or asset loss as the source of the problem. This is not anywhere near reality or the truth.

The two are separate discussions.

You don't sell for coins. So why are you crying about profit or cash loss?

If they were to grant your wish, and float more cash, you'll turn it into the game, your choice. My choice is to help a player get ahead and buy some GC at a discount that they obviously need. But to state that as the cause for the discussion like I am greedy or something is pretty funny of you, for the 3rd time is it now. You just said you were some fat greedy capitalist, are we contradicting ourselves to suit the hour? Or were you really a capitalist, or just saying that because it sounded good?
