Where'd all the land go?

Peace Alliance · March 11, 2009, 08:38:33 AM

Shouldn't there be an extra 350k goin around??

Marell · March 11, 2009, 09:03:45 AM

Ya, but I think its just well spread out...8 people have between 30 and 40k, and you've got a good chunk with 160k...plus theres heaps more with around 25k.

Yeah, the game balance right now seems to support land spreading. Not that it's a bad thing, but I've noticed that land floods get pretty much evenly spread through the ranks.

This spreads so bad it's almost embarassing...whats the point making all those stoats if the highest land you can get to run with is still only 100k? When will people realise that the more they spread, the less net they make ::)

Land spreading isnt intentional Firetooth

It happens when the game is active, which is a good thing
Its when our newer players only attack a few times each. So they all ended up with 20-30k acres

The extra 350k spreads out quick over 40 odd active players. Lets round and say 35, so an extra 10k acres per player. Which is about right, looking at the scores

The newer players could just take more land?
What's the point taking 30k off of somebody with 165k? It doesn't benefit yo very much, neither them or anyone else

windhound · March 11, 2009, 03:38:49 PM

They wouldnt know what to do with that much land.
Come on Firetooth, you were a new player not that long ago. Did you attack people 30-40x right out of the gate? 'Cause thats what it takes to get a good chunk of land off someone. Most dont attack much more than 10-15x, which they think is fair. And without the land floods that's actually a good target.

Also, people who -online- really spread out the land.
Turd.

Firetooth · March 11, 2009, 03:48:47 PM

I woudn't say I was exactly a land expert, but I didnt spread.
And it's not just newbs spreading. Other promi's have new players, but this land wouldn't be so spread out.
Hehe, I'm paranoid everyone is trying to lock.

Nothing wrong with land spreading - makes getting an edge more challenging, which is a good thing. It also means we have lots of active new players, which is excellent - when the land is always on one person there are generally very few newbies.

Firetooth · March 11, 2009, 03:53:16 PM

pfft. I'm so annoyed because I've reaped no benefit from sacrificing those stoats to break Ublaz >:(

krazilec · March 11, 2009, 06:28:36 PM

land spreading isn't bad, but it can be very annoying. I can understand how firetooth feels. everything you worked for is pretty much non existent :P

windhound · March 11, 2009, 07:54:26 PM

Its 'cause you guys cant scrape worth anything
You'd rather just batter one guy than scrounge around

Get scrapin'

Peace Alliance · March 12, 2009, 08:22:13 AM

Ya seriously. I hussled e'ry day to make so many stoats to break ublaz. And i never got to run on 350k land...

And ya, it's spread out. It still seems like a good chunk of land has gone nowhere. I was getting 100k land BEFORE we broke ublaz... Now i'm getting 160k after?!?

Same
I refuse to ever free land for you people again. Ever :P
And scraping is boring, I get like a billion message questions and complaints a minute and why should I have to scrape the land up I helped to free? Can't people just keep more land on them?

Firetooth · March 12, 2009, 04:11:18 PM

Now I am angry!

8    ?    C.P.L.5.9.3.H. (#24)    92,759    $305,927,373    Army (War)    Stoat    Sampetra

13    ?    Monster (#35)    59,673    $91,138,903    Woodlander (War)    Rat    Pearl Holder

16    ?    Leopardclaw (#25)    72,706    $82,743,714    Woodlander (War)    Wildcat    Pearl Holder

None of these players are new to this site. I scraped up 150k, look how quick it goes! Pure laziness...
