Bad Economic Predictions

When you say "have done great" what do you mean? How did they 'do great'?

Beyond All Reason

Although I'm ending on a loss, I AM ending on what was a good game for me. I just wish I knew what I did differently that made it one. . . . I took a front middle spot. Held my lane. Actually had enough metal to buy a T2. Paid in advance to help him get his factory built. Started upgrading all of my...

No matter if we won or lost, I was dropping in ranks. Didn't seem to matter if we had a 1 or not. I'm just guessing it's comparing my performance to the top tier players and concluding that I suck. Or, I get hammered by the top guys and struggle all game and it concludes, this dude didn't do anythin...

Bad Economic Predictions

Ok. . . then there's the 'good' economy, because 'good' things are happening (low unemployment, high GDP, other economy stuff), but then there's the economy is 'bad' because I don't like things about it. So the perception is different from the reality because of how it affects people. On one side, t...

Getting my ass kicked tonight. There are no games where half the players aren't 25+ skill. Last game, I was laning against a 30+ dude, and behind him was a 25.

Bad Economic Predictions

It occurs to me, my biggest problem with all the bitching is semantics. People keep bitching about the economy, when really, they have a problem with prices.

The economy is fine, but prices suck.

I'm no economist, but I feel like there's a difference.

It was surprisingly interesting. Of course the presenter had a personality conducive to listening to as well. But the one cheater just took things to a comical level. Constantly getting caught and disqualified.

I JUST watched a video the other night about NASCAR cheaters. Penske's name came up hard. Has been a known cheater for many years, I guess. There was one guy who kept trying to sneak bigger gas tanks onto his car. One way he did it was by installing a tank that was 2 gallons bigger than allowed. The...

Picked up where I left off the other night. Lost the first game against 2 medium. Again, my commander got caught out too far. Won the second game. Early pushes by them did take out some of my outer base defenses, but never any infrastructure. But that left a lot of metal for me to pick up and funded...

The build order is still, and probably will always be, pretty random, sort of. As far as wind vs solar. Windmills are cheaper to build, but have a variable output based on wind speed. In the upper right corner of the screen, you can see the current wind speed. If you hover over it, it will tell you ...

I'm figuring out early game econ. . . Just played a few games on a small map against a medium and a simple. Then I played one against 2 mediums. I easily won the medium and simple games. I 'think' I could have won the 2 mediums, but my commander got caught by heavy artillery while collecting metal. ...

T1 fighters now shoot ground targets. There are other reworks, but that's the one the streamers are going on and on about. They aren't against it, they just aren't sure about it. Short exposure impression, there's a small window at the beginning of the game where they are OP in specific situations.

Ok. Missed that. Was just skimming the puzzle. Didn't really try. I just did 4 random entries to get the solution immediately to see what the puzzle was about.

The one I just did said "Om" was a unit of measure. Did they mean Ohm? What does Om measure?
