    this is just like several months ago when farmers hoarded food till the end... if you could make it so that so much money WASN'T lost in attacks it wouldn't be this way but we lose an obscene amount of cash in every grab on us...
    same for food but at half the rate...
    no, there is simply more than one way to stock. stocking to end of month you will exceed the bank. obviously its not good to just leave excess money on hand. but other than food, there is simply nothing you can buy to resell later in the month.

    its quite simple. stock to fill you bank then you have options. some people like to jump. some people like to keep max bank and start growing. either buy up at an opportune time or just save that bank so you don't have to make sales the last couple days of the month.

    point is when i talk about stocking i'm talking about all of those strategies, not just your bite lip and take the food losses so you don't have to jump strategy.

    in fact most months its there is either too much food or too little food. so often times when your able to buy food on the market all month to stock past 50bil bank its worthless because it won't sell at the end.

    its very hard to find that food sweet spot with just enough players.

    I'll try farmer next month. I'm thinking of doing it until I got 50 billion in the bank and have a *ton* of extra food, and then do what I did here and switch strategies over to indy...if there are enough other farmers to provide food!

    er, we still need more farmers this round. Each time I put food on the market, it takes just one person to buy it all!!!! Heck, at this rate I'll probably have 50 billion in the bank by the end of the week!!! er, the bank cap should be increased!!
    Main Game firsts...

    First to get billions in Networth.
    First to get trillions in cash.

    Then my nation was rolled back!!

    this is true
    but i think it lies with too many indies in normal sets. we have started having too many farmers recently since people have been copying CRs strat...

    also our strat has proven to be more effective than any other strat that involves stocking except sit at the top spot and stock

    one of my favorite stocking months in recent years was a farmer convert to indy.

    i had been farmer at start of month, but there were just way too many of them. we discussed possibly going farm wars and taking out the competition but in the end decided to just convert to indy. i had been able to accumulate enough food at start of the month that i didn't have to buy food up from the market. there also was enough excess on the market that i could safely post goods on market and withdraw them once they fell below the 7.5%.

    anyways this allowed me to stock well beyond the 50bil bank fairly easily and at the end of the month i simply withdrew packages of food from the market when needed.

    of course i lost ground when i converted to indy and food was already selling cheaply that month so it wasn't a huge advantage, but it was a fun stocking set all in all.
