To describe my strategy in this game, i need to resort to analogy.

If the King of Stupid and Queen of Ineptitude had a child, and that child was then gifted by the evil fairy godmother with the twin boons of mild bad luck and extreme poor judgement - it wouldn't hold a candle to glorious incompetence that is my strategy.

I am contemplating summarizing this wisdom as sort of an anti-pattern, a guide to what NOT to do when playing MA Ermor. But that would imply I cared about others, which would constitute false and misleading advertising, and we can't have that now can we? :-)

What's wrong? The graphs show you're doing pretty well: a good number of provinces, good income, and you're the second best at research. You're not as bad off as me, all I've got is research.

I've had a lot of lucky breaks, for which I am very grateful. I guess I just I'm just amused at my inability to capitalise on them. It is a fun game, I have to say :-)

Tien'chi has up to 130 astral pearls for sale. Any amount can be purchased. Make your offer.

Bullock · #86 January 5th, 2013, 08:37 PM

130gold

Tiavals · #87 January 6th, 2013, 12:33 AM

Per each?

jimbojones1971 · #88 January 6th, 2013, 04:34 AM

I've sent you a PM with my offer. It is a bit more generous that Bullock's :-D

Bullock · #89 January 6th, 2013, 12:05 PM

why don't u make it public so we can bid ?

I'd like to propose more but i m broke.

Tiavals · #90 January 6th, 2013, 06:29 PM

Well, I'll make the price public for now.

I've got an offer of around 35 gold per pearl for all the 130 pearls, and it's from a politically friendly nation, so if there are any new offers, they have to be at least 40 gold per pearl for me to consider it.
