lol you bastard, you took 3M NW off my finish hitting me a few hours before set end. I couldn't let that go unpunished. I'm just happy you didn't PS me again when you had the chance while I had almost 3M of defense out on those two PS.

In any case, still my best finish ever on express, and the kicker is my Best 3 will now be exactly 20,000,000 NW.

Hmm. I don't like the fact that the oil destock shows I had 44 land at the end only. I think it tells a whole different story that I grabbed to about 12k acres. I mean it was my choice but going higher is usually better.

That's well over 4k NW/acre. My 70m NW was only a bit over 3k NW/acre and that was with better mil prices, food prices and tech prices.

Well one set I hit 18.850M, then last set I could have hit 19.200M but went for 19.150M instead to make an even 38M, so I knew if I hit 22M or 25M I'd end up with 20 or 21M on my best 3. I got the 18.850M in January of '15, so I guess this is two years in the making.

In the end, I only had 500k cash and two turns left over this set, so I only just barely made it.

My best 3 avg is now 54965764 and a turd (54965764.33333333333333333333333threeeeeeeee) which is a bit sad because it would be nice to be above the 2nd best finish ever! :)

I would have finished around 40-45m NW this set if I didn't see your stock when you dumped it all at the same time. That really sparked my competetive drive and I was making market plays all over the place.

I tried, and half succeeded to crash the oil market in order to get cheap oil. There was a really desperate oiler or oiler/farmer out there who had no clue I was mind-gaming him. Oil was at 250 and I crashed it to 100-125 and got my oil there.

I think I bought more techs than anyone in the game. probably over 3m tech points lol. :P

I don't want to give away secrets but basically the oil is to replenish your private market. You drop land only so all your buildings are MB and your mil tech % is awesome with very little tech needed to get max. It does take a bunch of oil though to do this destock.

It is mostly because I was a techer and it would cost too many turns to switch it all for no purpose.

I do think a regular full TMBR-ending without oil has it's merit if tech prices were to drop fast and military prices would be high already by Sunday afternoon.

As for the military tech it was maxed already before dropping my acres as I had to sell all my stock on my private market and I didn't want crappy $35 for my food. I did max sell my mil tech once after selling my food though.
