Andy,
Can you please take a look, this isn't normal.
On LU, in my empire:
Grey: Recovering from large earthquake.
XBus: Recovering from large earthquake.
Kestrel: Recovering from large earthquake.
Kestrel: New Red flag today, Recovering from large earthquake that occurred in XBus yesterday.
XBus: Not showing a red flag that earthquake occurred yesterday.
In the past 10-12 twelve weeks I've had 15-17 earthquakes across the 19 countries in my account. On no world do I have more than eight countries.
In 5 years I've never see anything like this type of frequency. |

Have you started fracking in your countries? |
| Rick | Friday, January 4, 2013 - 01:18 am
Now that you mentioned it, the profit on gas has quadrupled.
OK, more quakes. Pretty quick here I can buy a Stealth Bomber. |

Personally, whenever I experienced earthquakes in the past, they tended to come closely grouped together. Like I'll go a few months with no earthquakes then BAM! 2-5 earthquakes within a few days. Probably like techtonic plates shifting, since there definitely are times where 8 earthquakes occur around the world in one game month and times where many game months pass with none. At least it seems this way, but earthquakes aren't that big a deal IMO so I didn't pay close attention to them. |

Crafty: There was some fracking going on in a couple of my countries, mostly by LLWs, but I put a stop to that and closed down the houses of ill-repute. Of course the birth rate went down, but so did the quakes. **me, guffawing manaically till my sides hurt**  |
| Rick | Friday, January 4, 2013 - 06:02 pm
Them good fer nothin fracken frackers. |
| Crafty | Friday, January 4, 2013 - 10:55 pm
Getting gas when frackin can be quite embarassing. |
| Serpent | Friday, January 4, 2013 - 11:39 pm
Now who is the perv???
|
| Rick | Saturday, January 5, 2013 - 02:25 am
Well, guess I'm not going to get any fracken sympathy here.
Why do we have these anyway, anybody ever get excited over a fracken earthquake?? |
| Crafty | Saturday, January 5, 2013 - 02:38 am
Used to be people looked up the most helpful president. The president who offered aid in event of earthquakes.
Another loss to the community I guess. |

Why aren't there other natural disasters, like hurricanes or blizzards or tornadoes or Snookies? |
| Rick | Friday, January 18, 2013 - 04:14 am
Hey, good news, exciting! Another big one.
9 Corps lost. ASQ a bit mucked up. |
| Crafty | Friday, January 18, 2013 - 09:01 pm
Ouch Rick, that is nasty, to lose 9 corps :/ |
| Rick | Monday, January 28, 2013 - 09:18 am
Three more since last post.
2 light, 1 major
5 corps lost, probably more. Missed final count.
Thats 10 real days worth.
I,m going to keep posting just to keep track. |
| Crafty | Monday, January 28, 2013 - 03:05 pm
If corps would help, just say, I can get some to you. |
| Rick | Tuesday, January 29, 2013 - 05:50 pm
Thanks Crafty, but I'm ok with replacing the corps.
The biggest pain is that it screws my ASQ, depending on the corps that go down.
Appreciate the offer. |
| Rick | Tuesday, February 5, 2013 - 02:44 am
Two more Quakes, 4 corps down.
Don't need any assistance. |
| Crafty | Tuesday, February 5, 2013 - 06:14 pm
Lol, Rick. Maybe you should change your nick. It looks like you are being 'rick-rolled'! |
| Rick | Tuesday, February 5, 2013 - 06:39 pm
Lol, ya just gave me an idea!! |
| Laguna | Tuesday, February 5, 2013 - 06:42 pm
/me keeps fingers crossed hoping that he'll change his countries' anthems to Rick Ashley's song |
| Rick | Wednesday, February 6, 2013 - 06:01 am
Nah, no one listens to country anthems. |

You're not kidding!
OMG, he only went and did it!
+1 for your sheer audacity Rick. |
| Laguna | Thursday, February 7, 2013 - 12:57 am
What... but I listen to national anthems in Simcountry. 
Speaking of which, I can't find them anywhere, even though we can still upload them. |
| Rick | Saturday, February 23, 2013 - 09:19 pm
Three light quakes since last post.
Only lost one Corp..so far, been a good month! |
| Rick | Thursday, February 28, 2013 - 08:48 pm
Two light quakes since last post.
Not counting corp losses any longer.
Now considering earth quakes an empire tax. |
| Crafty | Thursday, February 28, 2013 - 10:05 pm
Rick, be grateful, it could well be complete country disappearances soon. |
| Rick | Friday, March 1, 2013 - 07:52 am
From what I read today I believe you may be right! |
| Rick | Monday, March 4, 2013 - 08:11 pm
Two more...one light, one major...eh! |
