No specific reason really, just preference. Since the attack limit was raised there is no benefit to staying unclanned as far as being vulnerable goes. I mostly stay out of clans because of land clogging.

This. Plus I generally dislike being forcibly associated with other people.

I'm currently in top position by a huge margin BUT I'm intentionally dropping down to the bottom.

Yes, and I make it clear everyday that I hate everyone else in it and that they are beneath me.

Interestingly enough, you sound like a grandeur schizophrenic.

Food production needs a boost. Shadow, are you positive that when balancing the races, +'s & -'s were properly accounted for?

Naw, I'm just a narcissist with a superiority complex.

I believe the food issue was already addressed.

yes? If there seems to be a problem you'll need to tell me specifically where to look.

How's the coding going for clan storehouse? I think clans need more benefits, there needs to be a reason to join. Is the clan defense % working? I think it's almost worthwhile to stay solo, as land passing is a major obstacle to overcome-- the benefits of clan use need to overwhelm the negative aspects.
I agree, although I think land passing wouldn't be as big of a deal if it weren't locked up. People aren't able to scrape up so much land now that they have to spend turns on their economy and stuff. So you shouldn't often have all the land stuck on clanmates unless your clan has been defending itself well in which case you would be benefiting from it.

sevz claimed you had cashing stats backwards, and magpie was worse at cashing than fox. I haven't tested because there is more land now than before, but I thought if you by chance mixed up good and bad %'s with one stat, it could have unintentionally happened to another; namely foraging. Then I realized foraging in general needs a bit of a boost.

pretty sure sevs just ended up in different worker/land situations between those two runs and ended up getting a comparison that is not actually valid. I didn't mess with the sign is any of the stats when coding.

The race chart is (or at least used to be) hard-linked to the sever code, so there shouldn't be any discrepancies like that, unless the "income" stat itself isn't what it is described to be...

Shadow

It's dead easy to test though, feel free to do this:

1 - wait til you have a free revolt
2 - note your income on army status (gross, not net)
3 - revolt to a race with a different income stat
4 - the ratio of your old income to your new income should be equal to the ratio of the income stats of the two races

even though your attack start to cost 3-4 turns and 6-9 health each after a few shots?
