Simcountry: Simcountry Bulletin Board: Little Upsilon: Graverdancers union was nuked (Little Upsilon)
When I first started playing a CEO on Simcountry I bid on someone's plutonium corporation on WG. It was honest error and was not expecting the hostile response. The player bid on three of my corporations and removed them. I didn't do it again.
There are also some circumstances where a corporation is causing a problem or preventing me from doing something with a population. After sending multiple friendly messages and offering excess repayment for any losses the CEOs might feel, it could be O.K. to save them the hassle of moving the corp. So far I have not gotten any complaints. I have had a CEO insist that I bid on his corp.
I do not think that either exception can apply here. Having threatened to use hostile bids as a primary offensive tactic it is hard to believe that Nolan did not know Samtator could be upset. Nolan owns oil companies and is not doing anything unique with them. Actually I think Nolan would be better off destroying his own companies and letting competent CEOs use the workers efficiently.
Of course there is nothing
wrong with picking a fight with LDI. It appears that is what Nolan did.
Good luck Nolan. Dice, deep fry, and serve up some samfries.
