If this is true (about the rare events), it should have been listed.

Event setting is hardly a minor thing since it affects order/turmoil balance heavily. But come to think of it, it at least used to be a common meme that turning down events would make the game more "strategic". Which is faulty logic.

In a different vein, what's up with Sauromatia? They staled once already. Get your team together, noobs!

I always wondered when we played that game, why some of the vets had such dismal income.

that's a terrible answer severus, and really you should not be organizing games w/ an attitude like that. If I were involved in a normal game, and the game creator had done that, I would be quitting. luckily, in this team game, it is partially balanced out. It is not at all a minor oversight; it is a major violation of trust.

I should not be organizing games? What is wrong with my attitude? It is best to let those remarks slide I think.

Ironhawk is correct, it was not intentional. It was not something I revealed only to my team or anything. Our noob archive is open to the public for all to see, if you doubt me. So what if it meant less points for some pretenders and less of those ridiculous "A hurricane struck the coast..." messages.

Let's have more concentration on basic strategic generalship rather than on random events and game exploits. Something the vets seem to know all to well. It will be listed for the next game. Now, lets have no more talk of this nonsense.

I'm pretty damn outraged. I keep typing posts and then deleting them for being inflammatory.
