Well I see it like this,
The GM has created this mess by reducing the Money and raising the Cost
The GM is insigating the need to "Covent" what another has.
The GM is the Problem.
the equasion used to be this:
Time = money
To figure the minimum, figure out how much money you're making per year and divide it by 2,000. To figure the maximum, consider how much you make for your most productive time -- closing a deal, a speaking engagement, billable client time, etc. Somewhere in between there is the real value of your time.
therefore,
one hour of my times worth 19.5 us dollars per hour.
looking at it frome this point of view the GM should be increasing my time worth of game play not trying to decrease my Worth.
also this point of view:
women = time X money
: : and according to Benjamin Franklin, "time is money"
: : time = money

if each missile sqrt($19.95)^evil and each missile power of 3KT of TNT equivalent (Total Noob Tool)
If I have 2,000,000 missiles and you have 2,000,000 missiles would it make any difference from
I have 2,000 missiles and you have 2,000 missiles

eh might be cuz im newb only having played after the gm has done whatever it is to reduce cash making potential not sure how easy you vets had it or watever but as far as i learned when i was in school you either evolve or go extinct... so evolution means in our case now cutting costs to increase profits, there will be a time when u run out of other countries to take over for profit and then what...so ya go take the countries while u can but eventualy you either have no one left to sell to, no one left to take over and your back to square one that is nothing to do but then disarm or go bankrupt

My average FI was 125 when all my cash went bye bye...I should have been making profit in spite of my military.
Unless you suddenly need a FI of 200 to break even now.
I will continue to profit whether by economy or by raiding until my membership expires, whereupon I'll have a massive gold coin sale/cashout. I've had enough.

Keith,
As you know I am a noob.
But I have lousy 700 corps ent (Voshod POO on LU) that generates 0.8T twice a day and it is not even 80% 225/225 and most (over 90%) corps are c3.
My little country is a joke (I use it as a breeding ground for corps) but it is rather profitable with MIB L5 military.
My point is that EVERYONE has the same playing field here (well, almost). It is not a question or Ranger versus Shadowknight, Tempest of Set versus Wizard or Minstrel vs Captain. That would be Naval Fighter versus Naval Helicopter cost/benefit and I imagine would be legitimate (how much do I know).
I am not sure I grasp what difference does it make, as long as 90Mil of your country can support exactly the same military as your neighbor 90 mil country equally well managed without exploits.
It can be 20 tanks, 2 divisions, 200 groups of armies as long as it is the same, what difference

huh? Are you accusing me of using exploits? I am having trouble making sense of what you're trying to say, Fred.

Enough. Stop. Someone who is previously making billions of dollars per month should NOT lose 20T in a day. I have talked to several players who this has happened to, and I feel more raids are in line. I advise all of you to band up if you haven't already.
