Slow your roll a bit man you don't need to nuke people with 1000 troops. I could understand if I had 15,000. Jolinar is like that kid that takes a slapshot 3 feet in front of the net in street hockey. Valid move? Sure, unnecessary though.Then I'm the kid that has to run a mile to get the tennis ball back every time.
If you had more territories than he did, and more resources, he wouldn't be able to do that to you without learning that you'll do it back.

I figure if I nuke Jonesy twice for every nuke I receive, that'll learn him a lesson. Takes time (dedication) to build up your territories.

Oh, and that massive area just NE of Calgary is my buddy Dic, he kicked off the nuking craze last night after you poisoned him on the highway back from Fernie. Once I have a few more rural areas I should be able to nuke you every day!
We were looking at that area NE of calgary ... it is such an impressive chunk of land that we debated if it was a hack!

Exactly. The key is to take an afternoon and find a rural section of unclaimed land. Rural land is good because it's all spaced out in grid format anyway. Doesn't take long to build up a nice chunk. Even if you can get enough to nuke him once a week he'll back off.

That's the thing, my resources never seem to go up. It'll have a nightly production of a certain amount but the tools one - I have 2 total. It doesn't move and hasn't since day one. Even when I had an area that was supposed to increase that production.

I'm also doing this thing on foot, so I'm kind of pigeonholed for now. When it warms up, it'll be on. But I stood outside in the freaking cold down my back alley to take another area, wind howling looking like a drug dealer - only to lose it right away.

No, I named your area "Gay Country".

And feel free to venture into my "capital". That is what the game is about.

Why would you have to spend $50? Also, what is the point of me kamikazing you when the end result is the same as a nuke?

I don't see Kybosh, Oilersfan, Republic of Awesome dude, Jenny, ffmf or any anone else I have attacked whine and complain. Suck it up princess....this is war.

None of us complain because we know you work for CSIS or something and might call a hit on us . By the way, your acts today will not go unpunished.

Talk about resource starved, I play the game with an iPod touch (beta versions run on it). I can only take over territories with wifi. So far my house, the Crowfoot Library and downtown (the dlink router there is 50/50 whether or not it is up). I can't attack people often, but when I do, it feels REAL good. I owe Jonesy a nuke too (and I work with him)!

So I'm trying to view my reports to see exactly which territories Jolinar has stolen from me, but I keep getting an "error parsing message" popup. Anyone else?

Heh, yeah oops. I left our development files open and I believe my 16 month daughter hit the keyboard and uploaded it, as well as unleashing hell on my computer. It is fine now!

Thanks!

But is that the real reason? Blaming your daughter? Come on!

That reminds me of the story of my little cousin who is like 9 years old or something. His mom lets him play with their iPhone, and he claims that he dropped the iPhone one day, and an app was accidentally purchased in the process of it hitting the ground, LOL.

Because to buy resources, you have to spend money.
Or you do not. It's a game, not war.If you think it's a war you're being the "Hitler into Czechoslovakia, let alone Paris." you're trying too hard too early.

But in the end, like the kid that calls war on everyone - chances are you're effed. Why nuke when you can kamikaze? You're the kid that takes things way too far.

I'm telling you this for your own good.

Like the makers said, they plan to alliance things. Guess who's on hit list Number One in Edmonton?

You don't have to spend money. The more territories you have, the more resources you will be able to accumulate each night.

Yeah, that's a novel idea if it actually worked. My resources don't move at all despite what it says about "nightly production". Been at this game since Christmas - never throw attacks and stand at a grand total of 2 on the "Supplies" resource. Never moves.
Seems like a bit of a scam to me, hate to be that guy but thing won't increase here's a link to "purchase more". Especially when Joleen (which is a girls name) is throwing nukes on 15 people a day.

Jesus you're bitter man.

Also, KTrain, if you'd invest in an iPhone for me, I would happily purchase your app. It works out good for both of us doncha think?

Bitter, no. Petty, probably.

It's bitter to mention when things don't work? The resources don't add, but perhaps I should shut up about it and never let the people that made the game know about it. That way they can fix the issue via ESP.

You are going to blame the makers of the game because you suck? FYI - there is a button in the settings where you can email the developers with any problems you have.

If this game is making your life so miserable just quit playing. Actually, I feel like going for a walk directly West.

Yeah, I should be more skilled in making the resources actually move. Go for your faggy walk, it's your territory - have fun in the cold bitch. I'm done with it until it's fixed.
