Isle reducal program

[Shendemiar]

Many people are saying they can't cope with the micromanagement and diplomacy, and some are selling or talking about quitting etc...

There would be a good way to get rid of your isles. Sell them for catapults. Go down to 10 isles packed with huge fleets and catapults.

Form a hard core in the hardest core. The true Knights of Morkin, Targs.

[Null]

This is a great idea, and I'd be happy to take some isles off people's hands if they wish to trade ;D


Seriously though, its got merit. If the time isn't there to manage it, at least try and keep things within Morkin and still contribute to the group, with less time required.

And if we evenly disperse the isle's throughout, we could easily go from mega accounts, to tanked up accounts, with all of us around 20-30 islands.

[Clausewitz]

*Clausewitz looks protectively over his lands, wondering if they shall be "appropriated to the welfare of the state" so that everyone can have 20-30 islands*

"Do not worry, labouring peasants and serfs. I will not allow those evil kae redistributivists to strip you of the spoils of your labour."

While talking to my late grandmother I convinced her that socialism is just the same as true Christianity, only without that God-stuff. Real socialism that is, not the kind of crappy dictatorships that tried to legit themselves by calling themselves socialist.

But I share Clausewitz' sentiments...

[Clausewitz]

Perhaps a Yacht Club for those us of >70 isles?

Arminius, Nottap, AeroS, Tom, and myself can sit around, smoking cigars, laughing heartily at all the little players who actually have to wait and "save up" for coloships

EDIT: Fat Cats of the World Unite! Repress the Socialist Revolution!

[kae]

Mwhaha! OUR ISLANDS! REDISTRIBUTE THE WEALTH!

How about I just declare a jihad...

THE PEOPLE RULE!

True christian giving comes with the added responsibility of accountability. Socialism takes a coin from one man to give to another. With Christian giving one man asks another, what is your need? and helps provide for those needs himself.
I will not be giving away islands since the whole reason I bought xxl was so that I could handle a larger account, but if you have a need I will do what I can to help provided what is needed. especialy if whats needed is a big fleet full of cats to burn down your socialist nieghbors island. ;D

I'd say that is not correct; it depends how it's implemented. With the kind of (mainly Eastern European) dictatorships it's indeed as you say. But the basic idea is the same, that you look towards the needs of other people and not just on your own.

[Shendemiar]

WTF? I'm half a day away my my thread (with brilliant idea) gets polluted like this! Shame on you!

And the idea was only to SELL the isles for cats if you cant manage them.

[Clausewitz]

See this, everyone? See this!

Shen is an agent of the proletariat! He approaches we burgoise with promises of "selling" our lands. This is how it begins!

Kidding, of course. Actually it's a sound idea, just having some fun with it.
