Hi, I'm Psycho Honey. I have countries on many worlds, and I am fairly successful in the game. Click on my name (but not too often) for questions or tips

I think this is useless. It has nothing in it.

Dylan M, patience, As it just started Today. haha

It really is useless, as there are help sections on the forums. It would be nice if a responsible admin could post stickies on the top of each forum section so as to not have new players look around for the same advice that has already been made available elsewhere. The forum style needs to be updated. Sticky-style forums help avoid the useless posts asking the same questions repeatedly by the newer players coming into the game.

Lol Wendy..

Think back to when you were new, all we had was the Game Documentation It just opened today anyway, it can be figured out and the kinks worked out, AKA keep new players off of the HELP topics older players should be posting on..was my original Idea with the concept. We'll see I suppose.

Not only useless, but also damaging.

i'm flabber gasted. for all this talk of making the game fair, and blah blah blah... now we see the real colors come out.

yes, it seems a bit redundant. but who ever checks the help forum? i rarely, if ever. most the time newbish questions are put into the general forum where people actually look. now we have a shiny new forum with "beginners" as a shiny invitation to new players to look here for advise... i'm reluctant to judge it, but hopeful this is a move forward.

"i'm flabber gasted. for all this talk of making the game fair, and blah blah blah... now we see the real colors come out."

What is that even supposed to mean Josias?

Indeed we have seen the true colors come out, and I'm not talking about Laguna.

You and your bunch have some retarded hard on for LG for apparently no other reason than he is successful, influential and you can't get your filthy hands on his assets on fb. You're all despicable.

This section is useless. That is the hard truth. If you don't look on the help or no one does for that matter, who cares? There is a help section. This is redundant. Anyone could click the help section like any other section of the forum. GMs hardly answer the problems section. Why another section for help, when there already appears to be one. It may help, but I doubt it will end up doing much more than confuse new players because of the amount of information, conflicting at times. How are they to know which advice they should follow or if it is even sound.

Honestly, GMs should be answering the help and problems sections of the forum regularly and consistently. Then start by updating the docs and there would hardly be the need for a beginners or help section.

Take for example the slight inaccuracies in the weapons and war portion of the docs. Although they make time to note weapons, what they do, the ammo they use, and the ranges(which aren't entirely accurate in themselves), they fail to let new players know that air defense has to be taken down first. This is why we have so many new players enter the chatroom saying, "I just wasted 3 trillion on trying to take this c3", or, "I'm at war with this c3 for a week now, and I'm running out of money." There are a few basic widely used methods of taking c3s. Why is this not a part of the documentation? It should have been included with the update to the war engine. There are lots of common sense things people need to know but will not find out unless they find out the hard way, or in the chatroom afterward.

This will just be another section of help and/or problem section questions that will be repeated over and over, because the information becomes outdated, or will become drowned out by too many answers. New players will get lost here as they do on the rest of the forum.

This topic is very funny.
There are people who whine, and there are people who act. Simple as that.

This applies to everyone. New and old.

You do whine a lot. Still I see no contribution. Your pathetic site is a divergence from where the information should be by default. On the forums and in the docs. Next...

Yay! First question! Ok, GameMaster sent me this message:

"The Security Council has decided on a new resolution. General Voting has now started on the following resolution:

Give 5 Trillion untied development aid to Chumlyville.

Please submit your vote on the Security Council page."


What does this mean?

This means that somebody asked a member of that world's Security Council for money, and the council voted and passed the issue. After this happens, all the players on that world get to vote and decide if that player should receive the money. I always vote Yes because "The Security Council has 314.69T SC$ in cash." It needs to be spent somewhere.

The "Security Council" section of links is on the second row of the top menu. If you like, you can apply for aid by messaging someone on the Security Council, but there are some circumstances that don't allow a vote for giving away the SC's money to be proposed. I'm not sure exactly what they are.

Players become members of the Security Council either by winning first place on that world or by randomly receiving membership by being active players.

well, the old way wasn't working, this doesn't seem exactly the same, but very similar. maybe putting it higher in the list of forums will make a difference. and if thats the case. yes, starting with a fresh thread, is a good idea.

and the idea that wild had was to create a way for experienced players to offer help to newb. in theory, if their are just a few of us, we'd be able to work together enough explain the differences in settings and such. or maybe we'd just complain and do nothing productive... o wait!!

o, and to the newbs reading this, welcome to SC!!!

Nice to see so many new players taking advantage of this section.

I definitely think we should have a guide/introduction/FAQ/whatever for new players stickied here.
Or somewhere. I don't care where.

I'm suitably entertained by this forum.

"I'm suitably entertained by this forum."

Same. And no, before you assume I'm a newb, I was a president and a CEO before, so I'm not a newb.

'Sticky Style' forum has a nice ring to it.

lol ianda

i am a free member. I want to make some more GCs in order to boost more people into the country. How to do it?

You cant. Pay for a membership. Its $12. $12 isent a million dollars.

can i point out to the nay sayers, that so far, this new forum has been a success???
