Title: Operation Domination - From Land
Post by: ZPO4O on March 17, 2011, 08:23:06 am
Hello and welcome to my topic about 'Operation Domination - From Land.' I don't really know how to open this topic, so I shall open is with a short FAQ.

First things first, who the hell are you?
For those of you who do not know me, I am Zeep. The resident RIA Land Whore. I had a nation in this alliance for quite some time. However over the summer of 2010 it got deleted due to me being inactive.

So, why does this topic exist?
This topic shall serve two main functions.
1. For you to follow my progress, should you chose to do so.
2. For me to record my progress.

What the hell is 'Operation Domination - From Land?'
'Operation Domination - From Land,' or 'O.D. From Land' for short, is my goal and reason for playing the game. Basically 'O.D. From Land' servers 3 main goals.
1. Buy as much land as possible
2. Lower my population density as low as possible
3. Still have a 'somewhat functional' nation.
Goal one is very self explanatory, simply buy lots of land. Goal two is probably the hardest of all three of these goals, as is sometimes sacrificed for goal three. Basically I am to try to get a population density of Zero. Once I am there, I shall attempt to see if the game lets me lower it even more. Goal three, as I said, sometimes demands me to sacrifice goal two temporarily. Now a 'somewhat functional' nation to me, may seem to be like a crippled nation to you. 'Somewhat Functional' to me, is a nation in which produces enough money to pay the bills, and still provides me with enough money to fulfill goal one.
That, in a nutshell, is 'O.D. From Land.' It's not simply to become the biggest nation, or as easy as just getting zero population.

Ok, so why the hell would want to do 'O.D. From Land'?
Why not? You ARE aware of what alliance you are in right? If 'for the sake of being random' is not enough for you, then try 'for science!' Truthfully, I'm just curious as to if I can get to a density lower then zero. Also, in an odd way, you can see this as 'winning' the game. How you may ask? Use Zeep Logic (note, if you have zeep logic you are probably fucked in the head). Who is going to go to war with you if you own all of planet bob? You own the whole planet, you win the game!

I want to help you in your quest, can I donate some money?
Sure can! All aid is welcome, just as long as you are aware that I will spend it as I please. You can however, suggest what you want the money to go for, but I wont follow the suggestions if they violate my goal. However, if you want all the money to go to land, let me know! Otherwise it will probably be split up between some infra, lots of land, and maybe an improvement or two here and there.

Yes I know I need more land.

<_<

I'm slowly working on that. lol.

I doubt it's possible to get negative density since the game probably just calculates people/land=density. One of those would have to be negative for your goal to succeed.

My friend in the GPA had the same goal as you.  Good luck with this Zeep

Why thank you for the good luck.

And who says it cant go to something such as 0.9 leo? That is not negative, so to speak.

<_<

That one is more of an experiment and to see how I can push the game then anything. Think of that goal as me testing the games boundaries, and not testing my own.

.9 is very possible. In fact, 0 is also possible if you have a high enough amount of land and a small population. -1 or anything of the sort should be impossible unless admin(Kenny) fucked up the games coding.

I know you can get negative soldier count by sending soldiers as aid and then having your soldier count destroyed by war.

So theoretically, you could get a negative population? Zeep, I apologize for doubting you.

Yeah, so if he sent 2,000 out of 3,000 as aid, lost 2,500 as casualties then the aid was accepted, he could have -500 soldiers, from his existing population...

STOP BUYING INFRA.

why dont we all just aid the fuck out of him with soldiers?

Why would he want soldiers?
Title: Re: Operation Domination - From Land
Post by: Mogar on March 19, 2011, 12:30:05 am
spend all money on land, not infra, if his bills are $20 a day we can just keep sending him money for land and soldiers will give him negative citizens and 0 population density

But that ruins goal 2 of having a somewhat functional nation.

It has to be a self reliant nation that can pay for its own bills, and not rely on donations from others.

<_<

The donations are simply to aid the progress of this ongoing ordeal.
