is this a server shift or are the bots flooding the market?

23 countries are playing a farming govt (D, I, F) so far, and all but 2 of those are OOP. Seems like flood to me.. 23 is a big portion of 119 countries.

ah, well i understand that. my question was is this a normal player run farmer heavy set, or are the bots flooding the market since they can select governments and interact with the market now?

Ah, not sure.

Food has been really cheap since bots were added, though.

less farmers, more techers? could do that.

ah, actually, could be partially because the bots are not *yet* buying def -- they are focusing on tech, and don't have the additional food expenses of high military. That should change in a day or two

I think it needs to be balanced take the % of each strat run and divide it amongst the bots?

cashers have a massive early set boost right now. will be interesting to see how the market changes once the bots start buying up.

i for one like randomness in the markets.

Yeah, but once people start spending their turns and buying up units- those prices won't stay that low for long.

Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.

It's not exactly what you said.

Step 1. Reread what you typed.
Step 2. Reread what I wrote.
Step 3. Compare Step 1 from Step 2.
Step 4. If Step 1 & Step 2 are the same then see Step 1.
