Thanks. (I joined your Alliance a little while ago, btw ).

I see that's for the account I mistakenly opened with the wrong email address. I play as MegaMan now.

OK, I've joined the right one now. We South African's have to stick together .

Hello orlok,
did give you a few things, they are more help in the first levels of the game, in the later levels you don't need them so much.
You don't need to join my alliance, because I do not now when I can make more allys because of the costs.

Thanks for those. I've joined your alliance anyway (you helped me complete a project). Still finding my way around this game, blundering around in the dark, it feels like...

Tip: upgraded things deteriorate.

Asset that surged 3250 for 5 points and after upgrading gave 8125 for 8 points, gives now again 3250, but for 8 surge points. Asset that I never bothered to upgrade, gives still 1050 for 3 points.


I really do wish for minus bliss gifts. My people are so blissful, they don't even care about having to live without electricity. Must be something in the food...

oh shit and stuff went so nicely. I've shortly added my 22 ally - and the last 2 didn't raise the percentage counter

Gave wyndslash & Trav the Energy gifts the system bestowed upon me overnight, and Freeshadow just got all the Bliss that people sent me overnight as well.

I've still got Military and a few new Population if anyone's really in need of them. I don't particularly need anything but frankly, the game is kind of boring at the moment I don't think I'll seriously try for more than 4 freebie e-books at level 10 and 20 allies, unless the gameplay gets more interesting.

ETA: Now down to just a few Pop & 100 All, unless people gift me more assorted stuff over the next few cycles, which seems likely.

[orlok]

I'm interested in anything I can get at the moment, especially Population . The little bit of Bliss I have to give away can go to Freeshadow, if that's what's required?

[ATDrake]

I'll give you a few of the 100 All. Extra population can be difficult for lower levels to absorb, unless you've got a surplus of Energy, Food, and other stuff in place to help cushion it.

Thanks for those, already applied . I am fine on food and bliss, am struggling a bit on energy, so have just purchased and surged a couple of energy assets.

Yes, well.

I upgraded instead. So, over 20% bliss penalty for a few rounds, while I tried to build up enough energy. still huge excess, but not as bad as it was.... plus, now I get to go pick another book.

No doubt at some point, bliss will be better used, but now it's just a big negative in your stats (unless, of course, it is negative, which is, in itself, a negative.....)

good.

You are getting all my bliss until you say stop. I had been picking random low level players and sending it their way.

With no other way to "contact" anyone, I thought some might decide to be allies (it is low cost at their level), but few seem to pay attention to where the gifts come from.

Some people quit after creating their account (one 1-level player has even filled the hoard list, as they are about first in the alphabetic listing).
