greatkitteh Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 In the interests of compromise since Mensa says they did several of them before us the wording will be changed to Best, not FIrst. Iirc the coalition did communism before and the charming friends did it. Only NPO did it well thougu.

ComradeMilton Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 We're actually better described as socialist. It's a great idea, well-liked by NPO and works marvelously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roquentin Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 (edited) NPO got rolled by an alliance half it's size and despite it's central planning remains a shitty low-tier laughing stock. Um, citation needed? I don't really care about your opinion with regard to the second part, but we've fought multiple larger alliances in every war we've been in. Like you guys are saying we suffer from tunnel vision when you literally think this. Edited December 22, 2016 by Roquentin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buorhann Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I claimed Milton suffers from tunnel vision. Not NPO (Although I wouldn't be surprised), not anybody else, etc. 1 Quote Warrior of Dio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfPCFQfOnLg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadesflames Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 (edited) Is it possible to actually perform a flawed idea "well"? Communism isn't a flawed idea. It just happens to not work in a society where work is necessary, and conducted by creatures that require motivation. Let me know how well capitalism does when most everything is automated.

hadesflames Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Game communism has been working excellently since it began. That's because the game people don't require any motivation to continue working at peak efficiency. =p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crust Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Iirc the coalition did communism before and the charming friends did it. Only NPO did it well thougu. Correction, we still do communism. How do you define doing it "well" though? Quote It's my birthday today, and I'm 33!

ComradeMilton Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Getting pyrrhic victories Centralized everything, controlled growth, controlled tiering, members willing to go to war even if we're unlikely to win and so fervently loyal they basically have no interest in leaving.

Crust Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) Getting pyrrhic victories I've had one or two in my life. It's impossible to decide what type of economic system works in this game because we all have so many different understanding of what success is. CF has a tremendous amount of loyalty, not only from the members but from the alliance to its members and its allies. Yet we don't exactly win that many wars. We don't affect the global politics that much. We don't have a bigger GDP than other alliances. We don't have more members. We don't have giant nations. But we are having fun. Anyway, what I'm getting at is nothing has any meaning and we're all going to die anyway. Our puny lives or production have no significant meaning. The only thing that will prevail is communism.
