Re: Bets
That is not a matter of knowledge, but mere guessing.
No one knows at what size the accounts will start in the Live game, it's likely even adminGary doesn't know.
I'm sure you're not expecting to have all these things in Beta stage already, right? You realise admin could (for the sake of testing) give us all 10T naq and 500m armysizes, just to test the scaling of things?
Might want to do this one as soon as the Live version launches.. right now it would be MUCH too early.

Re: Bets
At this point, I agree, it is pointless to speculate. We do not even have turns going to base potential growth on. During the beta I might just mass someone because they used to the word "guess" in a sentence just to see how the combat system works.
Once the game finally goes live, then there will be enough baseline data to work out some educated guesses.

We dont even know what UP or UP upgrades will be yet, I'm sure its not going to be 10 per click.
all a bit premature.

Also note that even if alliances aren't ingame, there will still be alliances present. There always are.

Re: Bets
month perhaps for most of them, maybe 2 months tops. People always play the market. People always spend a mound of $$, some people dedicate their lives to a new game, and others get lucky. I have seen it a million times.

Re: Bets
What does it matter. As long as I have seen more than you and ergo are more experienced in the matter (which I would bet money one) the difference between 8 and 1million should be insignificant for validity for many reasons..
