Ralke Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 I was wondering if there is a market selling information from bank raid reports? It seems that an alliance's bank balances can be determined to a 'ballpark figure' based on the apparent percentage looted from the bank and the resulting money and resources acquired. For example, after defeating an Acadia member I received 0.01% of Acadia's bank; $51,595, 0 coal, 0 oil, 3 uranium, 0 iron, 0 bauxite, 0 lead, 5 gasoline, 4 munitions, 10 steel, 3 aluminum, and 59 food. Therefore, based on the apparent percentage raided from the bank and the resulting loot, I estimated their bank balance at this time to be approximately $515,950,000, 30,000 uranium, 50,000 gasoline, 40,000 munitions, 100,000 steel, 30,000 aluminum and 590,000 food, with coal, oil, iron, bauxite, and lead being indeterminable. Is this information considered valuable, and is there a market for trading such information? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check a prolific raider like Bluebear and you'll see the info is open to anyone if they really want it 7 Quote Mans two modes of existence can be thought of as his light and dark side.

TheNG Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Besides, given any major alliance generally has a lot of resources and money moving around or already in circualtion, any information about bank contents can be wildly inaccurate (hint-hint) and is generally outdated within a day or two at most anyhow. Good luck getting anyone to pay you for that. 2 Quote "They say the secret to success is being at the right place at the right time.

Ole Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 There are no information attaiable to you thats worth selling. And those that have infromation worth selling, wouldnt get enough money for it to be worth selling anyway. Information isnt a good money maker in this game. Banking on the outher hand, thats a good gig! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buorhann Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Is it worth money? Well, depends. I know the information can be quite valuable, but there's also other means on obtaining it. 1 Quote Warrior of Dio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfPCFQfOnLg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Thrax Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 While it could potentially be useful information even though it IS a limited picture, no one will pay you for it unless they have no common sense. Anyone in the game can view your bank history to see it and make the calculations for themselves. Quote Slaughter the shits of the world. They poison the air you breathe. ~ William S.

Mageofpie Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Well that answers it then; I was not aware bank activity was not private. You could always get to the point where you can upbuild to declare on the guys who have 4k+ infra in each city and wait til someone wants to pay you to nuke em.
