Haha Jo, I was exaggerating but I was only doing so for demonstrative purposes. I'm certain the majority is player confusion. Something the Gm has tried to improve, and publishing things like this would help end it. :)

All I can add is the really good players like Treasurer, Quaxocal, Blueserpent and others work out stuff by brains, trial and error and however else they do it. Giving formulae to us all just reduces the difference between understanding the game and merely playing it. Jo, I think the formulae are way to complex to actually work out exactly by trial and error, but my point was having exact formulae would make it possible to come close to ideal for everyone regardless of "the skill comes with balancing the way in which all the aspects interrelate and affect each other,"

Anyway, I'll shut up 'cause I really dont care atm, I just like discussing stuff with the more intelligent patrons of the game.

Yeah I understand you sentiment CC. I am intelligent as well. But I have enough stuff in a day to break my head on. I come here to relax and unwind, not break myself down to work after work if you know what I mean. Trading forex makes me really drain my mind and this should be a form of entertainment. I'm not saying dumb it down so a four year old can play but it shouldn't be trigonometry either. Trying to figure stuff out without knowing the variables is kind of ridiculous and a real math problem. I don't work for nasa and everything I look at doesn't convert to equations in my mind's eye.

I'm not trying to drown you out, most people are here to play the game not make a second job of it. Your point as always is well spoken.

I stay with this game BECAUSE it is complex.

If I need something light, I now have a Wii :)

ditto, crafty, but lately it seems more like the game is "can you figure out what wrench the GMs are gonna throw into the system today" rather than actually figuring out the actual formulae and mechanics and theory of the game model. That is, we're spending most of our time reacting to updates and supply fairies, not the game itself. This is a form of purgatory. :)
