in response to the original post:
So now, with them already bottoming out GC and Cash in Direct Trading, now you want them to bottom out Population too?
I remember paying 480-500 and lucky to get 390 in cash per gc..
Now pop, I now even list pop @ 3 or 4..never 5, You should consider patience when adding pop, not buying GM pops for instant growth and waiting a few hrs wont kill you.
or come in chat and ask "anyone have any pop I could get for 3-4 gc 8 times out of 10, someone does. I always do somewhere.
2nd point:
Building an empire, and buying an empire, are two different things. I dont waste my credit card on SC, strip, consolidate, conquer, build econ, sure I have some countries that came pretty well stocked, but most built from scratch, or came with pop, stripped them down and start from scratch with just a decent pop start...
and respectively, It takes a LONG time naturally to get 1M pop growth, (alot less time then it used to a year ago with a few updates they made)
Lucky they dont make it 7 GC..
But yah know, if your tabs getting low, Get a Chase Blueprint card.... :P
