Direct Trading - game money (White Giant)

As far as I can tell the GC/SC$ exchange rate is a tool the GM uses to regulate the SC$ money supply. As such if several people bought quite a few coins and the GM did not change the exchange rate there would be huge amounts of inflation in SimCountry. This is because if 1000GC are purchased and converted to SC$ that ends up with a nearly 150T SC$ increase in the simcountry money supply, that happening several times would lead to huge inflation, and since deflation seams to be the policy of the GM atm they are unlikely to let that happen. So father devaluation of the GC is likely if people try to transfer US$ into GC or if the GM continues their policy of deflation in SC$

Also, is there any way we can apply to help the SimCountry development team? I have a good understanding of the effects of market movements and changes in money supply and inflation on economic outcomes. I would be very happy if I could put any of my understanding of maths and economics to use in improving the game. Just thought I would float that as an idea because regulating the markets in this game has a lot of finely balanced maths involved and input from players may be able to improve the regulating process.

At the rate enterprises are losing money, it will be marginally above zero.

Heck, not like any of yours are losing any Laguna.

Gimme some money :-(

Exchange rates have dropped lower.
1 GC buys 140 billion SC$
Wonder how low it can get before people say the money isn't worth all those gold coins?

Personally I can't figure out where they keep getting the coins >.<

They buy 'em with real cash probably, it's one of the ways the game makes money.

Andy 135/... spread

Trend is your friend. How low will it go?

Interesting the GM is not on both sides of the spread.

Investors take note.

Tom fitz, that response has to go for post of the millennium award. Did you even give two seconds thought before responding lmao.

We could set the rate at 100B=1GC right now, if we all stuck to it. We might as well do it and get it over with. That being said, I'll buy all your gc's for 101B each right now.

Exchange dropped again

Andy(Tommi) 125/131 spread

Trend is your friend. How low will it go?

Investors take note.

Andy is not Tommi. They don't convey ideas in a near similar fashion. Or he may just be good at masking his identity. All things considered I cannot reasonably conclude that Andy is Tommi.

Exchange dropped again

Andy(Tommi) 119/124 spread

Trend is your friend. How low will it go?

Cool map graphics though! (Steal it SC devs!)

I played Simcountry for 7-8 years, since 2001. After years of advice and waiting for them to fix the game... making my own ;).

Simcountry is bleeding players anyway. This game used to be packed, now its bullshit.

Sounds interesting. I'll be sure to check it out on release.

I've suggested that w3c make-over the graphics for almost as long as I have been playing. In a world full of immediate gratification junkies, graphics are King and would quickly overshadow the more serious shortcomings of the game and add to its once famed lure. But who in the hizzelle am I, don't mind my drool.

Agree with Wendy- this place needs a makeover.

/me flicks spiderweb off face.

@Riamund,
I'd be careful with the name, as it is used by a certain SimCity Franchise owned by a well known company called EA. Apart from that, it looks awesome.
