I will try to press the "gain 1m NW"-button instead, repeatedly.

It's a premium feature. #pay2win

Man, worst timing ever... I will get bonuses reset 40-60 min after set ends

Don't worry, i missed 12 points earlier while the bonus site was down =P I missed out on 3 bonus turns last set by less than 5 minutes though, lol.

In other news, dabil got bored and started grabbing again. Got my full intel while i had 25% of my military on the market. My allies probably saved me for today, thx!

So what?

They are not targeting you. Everyone gets them. So it is not important for your ranking.

It's an observation, every set in the final 10 days 2-3 earthquakes, like clockwork.

It can be a big deal imo. If I have one more post-grabbing 900 acre eq than my competitor, that’s $150m aka 500k net. Rounds have been decided by less.

Whoever sells first is the one who doesnt have to panic sell at 40 just to get something over the private market. :)

Who will win?

Food has crashed like I predicted. Still worth it for the food stockers to destock publically so theres still potential to go down, but either way at these prices, no farmer is in the running, nor is anyone who stocked heaps of food.

Anyone else have any t5 predictions or winner predictions to throw into to heap?
So far everyone seems sure beavis got it, except me. I think the cashers got t2 locked and by now beavis should outnet BeE Po bEe po BEe pO.

Best piece of news to ever come out of that pile of fluff, question is, is it real news, or another typical CNN nothingburger served in a dirty plate?

48*6

Looks like for THE LONGEST time turrets went to 150 today. Marking a possible or probable shift in price trend.

Unrelated query: what was/is this the biggest landgrab of the set?

I found this on eestats: ASTRAL (#11) Paracetamoxyfrusebendroneomycin (#60) 4457A (6360A) - the biggest I found.

Turrets being at $150 shouldnt mean anything, they shouldn't sell.

I guess a bonus where you lost incremental from switching govt would be cool

I should be ~110m nw. I'm sticking to my prediction that i'll be 3rd. It's tough to judge beavis/parace since i don't know how many turns they have or their stock. I'm sticking with beavis, but it's closer than i thought. I'd guess they'll beat me, but not break 120m.

When the model doesnt fit reality, I always ask myself; is it the model or reality that is flawed?

Two earthquakes today! The final standings will now be illegitimate. If I don't win, big asterisk on these whole last two months!

Is Dorsai about to mess up my prediction for 5th?

Lower acres than beer in hell, presumably both cashers.
Delphinius should be jumping soonish so we have not seen his potential yet. And Anarcho may still have some gas left in the tank, so hope is not yet lost for my 5th prediction.

If Tmac isn't sandbagging he will probably be 3rd which surprises me. Reached 53k acres with many buildings left to rebuild and low techs?

Hopefully Bee po bee po can pull off a little bit of an extra jump but not a huge one so I can get my 4th right.

Either way if I am wrong in any of my predictions I will fall back on;

No, not at all. But I think my prediction might be a better indicator of what the potential of each country was back when I made it, than what the endgame scores will turn out to be. Assuming of course I didnt miss some stocks, bonus discrepancies or tech discrepancies that account for 10-15m NW differences.

I think it shows we can only accurately predict our own finishes even though we like to guess at others potential. I had 3500 indies to help me get 2m spies, 500k sdi at 3k a point while only at 160% bus/res, 1.2m tanks, and no premium. There's also no way you know if harmful ops are being done. I only lost a few hundred mil cash from the plagues, but rob had 20k building razed last set by ops! You got topfed twice and in no way am i taking away from your very nice finish, but what i said are things you wouldn't know without my intel. Btw, i sold 600k spies, 600k tanks, and 300k sdi($1300-$1800 a point) once i felt safe. Just so you don't check my op later and think i made it up, lol.

Anyways, congrats on the awesome finish gerdler. Molotov finishing top 2 for 3 straight sets as well =)

You forgot fourth, fourth is obviously the RELAX-ed hot dude next door. You can only be this chill since you know you’re not all worked up about trying to win. yet u know you’re close enough to get some attention all the time. :D
