Thanks for the link, it's accurate but brief. I've been studying similar things for the last 10 years and learnt some fascinating stuff. Hard to teach people how to live a more fulfilling life but it's great to lead people to small success on their own acceptable scale.

Grats on the promo

The game is dodgy cos you don't listen Shadow. You think you know best but you don't know best so deal with the reputation of being an idiot cos you deserve recognition.

Eh, I'm bored of this game. The dynamics are rigged and everything is pointless. The land is easier to lock than break so I could either grab it back now since i'm on full turns or just click the X and go watch a movie.
I reckon I'll jus go watch a movie and come back tomorow when everyone's used the land. Make the most of it while it lasts. I got a few weasels to fix that hole that oblit left

Turns   550 (max 550)

Have at it. Go for it monkeys  ;)

It's easier to clean a room that's been maintained and not clustered, you'll see the problems rather than neglect them and fall behind.
I live in a safe place now, no one's stolen from me since I moved last and last place I lived was a ghetto. Now i'm 1km from the same ghetto suburb of home invasions, grudge bashings, druggy gossips, bad addicts, thieving dogs, humble murderers and standover men that can't fight but everything is perfect

I tell ya, living around a bunch of people with really feral bedrooms isn't pleasant. Ya get to know someone and they introduce ya to 2 people etc and after a month ya meet a bunch of people with no self respect and deep down bad intentions. Sure we all get lazy and learn how to get lazier. It's one of our many skills. The worse we spiral the further we gotta climb back up which is one of other skills

PA's explanation of clustered bedrooms breeding professionals is perfectly valid but not healthy. If Peace became not a clean freak but someone who had high regards to the presentation of his house he'd advance his professional status with a renewed clear cut confidence. Messiness is a sign of self neglect. You do a career of someone elses calibre better than they do but you're not reaching your true potential.

The authority thing was directed to the seeds of everyone's personality and coping mechanisms in preparing to get older.

General Discussion / Locking Threads
March 22, 2012, 12:06:00 PM
I think you admin guys should stop locking threads without consent the threadmaker, a genuine reason and something like a jerry springer end note. Top 6 was fun banter and Peace Alliance had no relative reason to shut down a topic with 81 hits. If there's little activity in the game cos no one has skills or a care in the world to get skilled up then the least we can do is get the game discussion lively.

Mod your own topics and don't read the ones that don't interest you. Forum activity is good for the game even if you can't make the game right.

I agree with Snare. Gen said it in the ultra modified discussion. 3 against 1 means majority rules and volkov is grumpus

We've never proven this. If he comes solo active i'll go completely solo active.

Onlining is a statement of despise. I only do it when someone makes up junk about me or it's retaliation.

I destroyed Wolfbite in reg. PA wouldn't wanna come out of retirement without some good helpers or he'd be fodder. I could punish his passive account but don't see the nobility in beating someone who won't fight back and just runs their mouth like a woman.

The more people you get hating me the more who suffer. I'm not scared for my safety but for the safety of others. You tend to lead them into doom against me rather than give them the chance to learn off me first. Vargarth is a hybrid example. Every tip I give that kid he uses it great but he doesn't have what it takes to challenge me so his hatred is as premature as your lovelife.

PA for president.

Depends on the reasons why it's empty. If it's deliberate then it means the housekeeper is either advanced past material possessions or completely scared to risk obtaining or losing self value.
Many people waste all their opportunities blame everything else and make excuses for their own failure so often that they're more comfortable slowly suffering than admit to being wrong and use the knowledge for bettering their life. Usually pointing this out to them doesn't work it makes things worse. Try a monkey see monkey do theory.

We're all a subject of our environment. If you get attached to the past you'll end up with old stuff accumulating until you learn to let things go and return to scratch where as if you create and live to your own style you'll achieve a healthy balanced environment and control your own life from a younger age. Parents are the dumbest for trying to breed their children to be in their likeness under the dynamics of someone else's authority.
How can you be like the authority if the authority is in charge and not taking orders?
It doesn't work much like the police system. Authority equals hurdles for the poor. One's who think they're better controlling others because it appears society these days lacks awareness. Gotta wake people up without punishment
You are not your parents and don't need to comply with their rules. They need to comply with your rules as long as you aren't doing the wrong thing by yourself and others. Keep your room the tidiest but for envy purpose not to make people jealous. It'll motivate other aspects of the day to day.
If you can't be bothered cleaning then do some heavy exercise for a few minutes as motivation. If you can jump in the air and do a 360 double heelclick you can pick up some ugly rubbish and put it in a bin. No one can stop ya cept yourself. Once we all understand that we control our own actions right now our skills at everything advance more rapidly.

People with heaps of stuff go crazy and sad cos they're trapped and do nothing, people with nothing end up learning to live a fulfilling life in their surroundings and people who start in the middle learn to rule the world. Rob the upperclass and enslave the lower class. Learn from the last mans mistakes rather than make them yourself. Bit by bit think positive and it will come.

I recall a study I read a while back where they theorized that cluttered people were actually professionally more successful. My family has always been very messy. Not dirty, or unhygienic, but always cluttered. My wife is like this too (thankfully). We clean things up in bursts... but for the most part, things go where they fall, and I'm OK with that. I think the entire concept of having this pristine, organized home is a social construct. It is, ultimately, a distraction from the important things in life.

To a degree this is true but too much will stress and depress people out of going to work especially if they've had something they loved stolen. General laziness around the home will eventually catch up and have negative effects.

I thought Snowy was Ereptor? Either way it's a mistake to challenge me.

Market is easy to overfill and that's why I was locking the land, cos it's the only way I can afford to buy everyone out. Many others would not spend as much as I'm willing to spend. Would you buy my stuff to sponsor me to break your emperor? Usually not but for me it's much more fun to supply my challengers with needed resources and see what they can do.

If you all want the truth, I am scared of Peace Alliance because he's a wolf in sheep clothing. Plays passive but he's politically as evil as it gets.

My rooms organised and practical. Not heaps of space but enough for 1 task at a time so I don't mind throwing things out if they're in the way. Main concerns are hygiene and presentation.
Clustered house clusters the mind so don't let it get too bad or you'll eventually live lonely and sick in a junkyard for not caring about what truly matters in life around you.
Hoarding old junk is burdening. Do the right thing by yourself starting from your room. Simplify and expand in a more positive way. They say cleanliness attracts wealth.

Cashing isn't the best strategy but it's the easiest. Any race with heavy defence and a solid plan will usually win. Without land locked everything is chaos and the winner of the round is the last player to move before reset
