May, 2008 - ERA 15- VERSE OF THE BIG GUNS. GUNS AND HAPPINESS
mid-era update jun19/08
Market turns available to buy (or equal to trade) increased by 5x.
VERY NICE
2880 turns per day or 20180 turns per week.
SS Market PPT option decreased to 2 days, from 3 days. Cost remains the same. LOL
The option to trade miners for naq is removed (feeder accounts were using it.. not the intention).
This has been replaced with trading miners for happiness. Each miner per turn equivalent (right now about 11 miners) gives one turn worth of the realms top happiness producer ...
Going to have to look into that
Politicians killed when no defence is present, increased to 10 per super sent...STARTING ON THE 22nd OF JUNE
This is to compensate for the removal of the 10% of population as politician maximum, and the increased weapon size requiring less supers ...
ah that could be interesting
Each day, along with the 13 increase in unit production, each realm experiences a onetime immigration
of untrained units equal to about a sixth of the realms top daily unit production. We are all interconnected, here...
I would love to see that all uu were convert into miners every 5 days?

It's about to be...the number of miners required to get that kind of happiness is less than some folks total UP. Bad idea in my opinion to make happiness buyable this way, should have simple increased what buying happiness with naq did instead (not a significant amount but made it worth while) now Happiness levels will probably end the era in the quads probably.

well its a massive kick in the teeth for those who have used their market turn today. looks as though all the effort i have made to maintain rank 1 happiness has gone out the window.
This could potentially screw up my whole wave and means i have wasted all the time i have spent so far on this wave.
This is a very unfair update unless all market turns are reset. Another option which would have been better is to make this update at the the start of the next day so EVERYONE has the equal opportunity to decide what to do. So why do i need all my 100k pollys that i have invested into?

Wow, what a set of updates!
We finally get the AT we have all been crying about and love that.
We can farm harder and Mass a bit.
Politicians are easier to kill ... but wait, they are now worthless!
Who would waste a single AT on killing a worthless politician?
Untrained Mercs now have more value than them.
In an era where Happiness had already gone Mad, it is now totally gone insane.
Too, too funny.

the rate for happiness is quite wrong and a 2 day PPT doesn't give you much as an advantage anymore. I would like it back to the 3 day PPT.

Hippyfool don't forget everyone gets 1/6 of the highest up per day now. That a nice extra 4k UU for everyone right now.

ah hmm. i missed that when i read updates before! im not sure if i like it or not...
1/6 of my UP is... 6.8k UU (presuming it goes on total not raw)...raw would be... 4.1k UU...
But even with that, it doesnt change how rediculous that trading for happiness thing is... i mean, seriously, what is the point of pollys now??

EDIT - on another note... the killing of pollys should be based on a % - or at least have a max % killed per hit... because right now i can mass ANYONE which means...da da da.... i can kill 100% of anyones pollys in 1 hit just by training 10k supers
