As long as you don't CD, you get refilled if a game ends with you below 100 total points.

you don't get rewarded if you CD? i didn't know that.

refunded i mean. but rewarded is a good way to put it too. this is a slightly communist system here, with the low-point player bailouts, creating a moral hazard and encouraging them to take reckless risk. i guess it prevents people from creating a new account after every loss though.

if it weren't like this i'd have gone through 10 accounts by now if i cared enough... just need to get enough unique email addresses...

Not really, no. The points given to the poor don't come from the rich. The new points are literally plucked out of thin air by the admins. The result is that you have point inflation where the number of points in the economy balloons out of control, and points start meaning less and less if they could be traded against stuff outside.

And @OP what Draugnar said. Arguably what I said too.

i think international bankers would call it communism, whether the funding is through taxation or through inflation. it does, over time, redistribute wealth to the weaker players if they only play each other, or the strongest of the weaker. but i'm not complaining.

or actually i take back the part about international bankers, since many of them are in favor of soviet-style communism.

International bankers are in favour of communism? I don't know what you've been taking bolshoi, but if it isn't illegal it should be.

@bolshoi - Go ahead and create all the accounts you want. Please. Then the mods will ban all of them. It is *explicitely* against the rules to have more than one account on the server. Even if they don't play together, they *will* get banned.

Also, bolshoi, I'm uessing you're still in Jr. High or High school equivalent because you must take from the rich and give to the poor to be communistic. Nothing here takes from the rich when refilling ones coffers. They just print more money, like the US Government does. :-)

I think MadMarx and Babek stand in sharp contrast to your complaints of communism. In any event, you should meet Tettleton. I'm sure you two will have a lot to talk about.

international bankers funded the bolsheviks rise to power. and made massive amounts of money off the ussr. if you know an international banker, ask him what he thinks of communism. they are certainly against money being taken from them. but communists tend to take money from the average or slightly successful people and businesses. which these bankers love. since they want a world where they themselves are the only ones with wealth.

or maybe they just want to be rich. not everybody is cruel, not even all bankers, mayeb they want to earn money from the ones who have it (otherwise they can't use a bank) and donate it to the real poor...
