2011-02-24 A Mineral Shortage Fix

So I thought of a fix, well somewhat, to the shortage of minerals. At least something that might cancel out the largest problems related to such.

The largest problem being that New players cannot find enough minerals to build ships. These players don`t need a ton of minerals, most of the wealthier empires wouldn`t even notice if the amount they need was taken from their supplies.

So two things we, as players, can do to help.

The first being don`t buy any small intervals \ posts of minerals on the market, leave those for the newer \ poorer empires. I mean really what is another 100k minerals when you have 10, 20, 100+ million already.

Secondly, we could all start randomly posting small amounts of minerals. IE 100k of each, ever day, or every other day, even once a week or so would help.

If all of the wealthier empires posted small amounts randomly and none of them bought any small amounts, there would almost always be at least some minerals for the younger empires to help them get started.

This would require the cooperation of nearly all mature

The strafez market was empty after this, nothing was reposted.

Yeah the green also effects your sleep cycles, shortening your deep sleep cycles so that you don`t get as well rested. Personally it makes me sleep much longer and I feel very groggy when I awake. And thanks, this one should be easy, it`s for FInance 320 and I feel pretty well prepared.

I find the green really helps with falling asleep, but it usually keeps me asleep longer then intended, so great choice on the wine. Good luck on your exams tomorrow.
H HoneyBucket
lol yeah I feel you Boudicca..... and I have to be up in about 4-5 hours for school and a big exam tomorrow..... drinking wine atm to help the sleep come more easily.
B boudicca
HB its bed time isn`t it, so hard to go to sleep, and when i am asleep it is so hard to get up, ugh....

P PizzaTheHut
flashy how this for overkill not only did i make 130 bill in 1 day but i spent a few hours rising to 45 mill ish attacking a bit even took a shot at the npc and won :P

Ok so in a day or 2 I`m gonna start posting some TM and WC in large batches, just a heads up.
the thing is, I`m nearly stocked full on them, and will probably dump all surplus I make for a day or so before plundering and getting new colonies to max out the other minerals, since there apparently is some demand for them.

10hour(s) ago FreshFish, that isn`t killing your income selling at that low of prices?!? Will you survive???

:D My income is rolling just fine...ok so sales are around $25 million less than normal but i`m sure i can live.
P PizzaTheHut
i have been on board for this since the begining and every time the bm came around when i had too much $$ i used that to burn my creds so im realy not in that much need of minerals so i only buy to get to big lots or just the big lots
