Azazel, close some of your state owned corporations - there isnt enough workers to go around. You are just decreasing productivity elsewhere.

If I build more, will you come?

sure, as long as my other corps will be doing good.

As soon as you'll have the ppl, I'll have the factory.

No way, dude. These are >150 quality corps. As soon as I'll transfer some workers from the shithole to the east of me, We'll be back in bussiness.

Set some of your lower-profit generating companies to lower hiring and production levels. That way your more profitable ones will get the staff they need, and you don't destroy any companies you have invested in.

I've just recieved an answer to my declaration of war.
It was a pathetic "Why?"

should I answer this?

GeneralTacticus · April 1, 2003, 03:11

Send your response by missile courier.

Skanky Burns · April 1, 2003, 03:46

Ames: Send a message to The Franit Empire asking to join (ingame).

Oh, and mention the name of your country somewhere.

Az · April 1, 2003, 06:38

Justinia has a solid ranking. I feel that you, as the new chairman should accept it, as well as Colon's country, and Lonestar's country.

Skanky Burns · April 1, 2003, 07:05

I definately will make new chairman now, so as of 9th August (game time) I''ll accept the newer members into the federation.

I never knew it was that easy to gain power.

Giovanni Wine · April 1, 2003, 08:56

According to the RSIA (Royal Secret Intelligense Agency) also the Repubblic of Euskadi of Lawrence of Arabia should be now worthy of entering the Federation (should he want to) as he has a ranking of 772.

What a frickin' crybaby!!!! Get what this guy just sent me:

Quote:

Well, thanks for destroying the fun and joy of this game. I hope you are very happy.

I haven't even attacked! What a frickin' loser! He could've just asked me to spare him, and pledge his eternal allegiance to me, but nooooo, he has to try and push my conscience buttons on his way down, and continue to be a ****ing pain in the ass.

My possible future steps:
a) grind his regime into fine dust particles.
b) spare him
c) send him some sort of fun ultimatum, that can be embarassing to him.

decisions, decisions.

GeneralTacticus · April 1, 2003, 09:27

I stand by my earlier comment: send c) painted on the warhead of a ballistic missile.

Giovanni Wine · April 1, 2003, 09:36

I would go on with.... a) destroy his regime for the glory of Apolyton
*stand proudly off his chair and sing the Apolyton anthem (Banana Dance°).

Saluti

° In case you don't know that song.. here it is:
Bananas unite (place arms over head)
Bananas split (open arms and place at sides)
Peel banana, peel, peel banana (move to left)
Peel banana, peel, peel banana (move to the right)
Bananas to the left (circle arms to the left)
Bananas to the right (circle arms to the right)
Peel it down the middle and (uh) take a bite (grab and pull from out in front of you)
Go bananas, go, go bananas (do a sort of dance in a small circle, look like a fool)

Az · April 1, 2003, 09:49

I sent him a re-assuring message:

"Sorry dude, nothing personal. I just need the human resources."

I am thinking about pumping the population out. Slowly, slowly, BUT SURELY.

Skanky Burns · April 1, 2003, 17:59

Yeah, a population slave country is always useful.

Although my slave country is down to 3 million people.

Can you invite my Brother (Books Borough) in?

Lonestar · April 1, 2003, 18:56

Azazel, did you tell him His Iraqi flag and Stalin was sucking the fun out for you?

Az · April 2, 2003, 00:45

didn't have the chance.

He just started ranting about how I ruined the fun for him, and that now he's just going to ruin everything in his country, and then let me have it.

What a whiny little *****.

I think a tear is coming to my eye...no wait, there isn't.

EDIT: This post got me Warlord. Simcountry rules

Skanky Burns · April 2, 2003, 08:42

I finally conquered Third Drunken Macaque NoCEOs (former Central Tentor or something like that). Damn, but is it in bad shape. 760B $E war damage...

It has 3000 schools (needs 4000). So far, pretty good.
It has 250 highschools (needs 2,500). Damn, these are the ones that produce more teachers too. Also, I only have enough teachers currently to fill 2,800 schools, so had to close many of them down.

30 hospitals out of 93. Transport is as expected - not bad but certainly not good.

My defence is rather decent though (as I didn't really attack them all that much) and my population is 12.9M!!
Consolidation time.

GeneralTacticus · April 2, 2003, 08:52

Just about the state of that country's education system - I feel your pain

I had a similar problem when I started up my own country, and I still haven't gotten close to fixing it...

Loser

Skanky Burns · April 2, 2003, 17:37

Yeah, based on my experiences with my former country, I will be pumping up the number of highschools as fast as possible. These are the ones that give you more teachers, and thats exactly what I need right now. But I'll see how my theory turns out.

dudemanjack · April 2, 2003, 18:31

Here is the dudemanjack theory of solving unemployment in the slave country:

Send them all into your main country to join the army.

I seriously have like >200,000 low level workers in my slave country. Conquering new countries opens up new opportunities for conquering more - for me, it's in the 25,000 population transfer.

I have also increased my corporation profit payment from 45% to 60%, making myself >$50 billion per month profit in Mentop, so I can support an even larger army.

My army grows by about 70,000 people per month (well, at least the last two months). I can't wait to attack another country.

P.S. I think we should change the mission statement...we're just all going to become a bunch of warmongers.

"to spread civilization and promote stability across the world" ?

Skanky Burns · April 2, 2003, 20:57

But we are well-defended warmongers.

Oh, and does anyone know who owns "Democratic Empire of Sheepsta"? I would also request that they change their president's picture - it could get them in trouble.

I have to say that IS a mighty patriotic flag though....

I would surrender to that any day of the week!
