I would guess 2B bushels should get you into the t50, but as you said, three of the biggest clans have been able to net peacefully, including the behemoth 400 country NBK.

I doubt the t100 threshold will move up considerably (some, just not as much as people think), but I think there will definitely be some people pushing for those higher spots by FAing, manipulating the market, etc.

I think t10 and t25 will be very high this set, and t50 might be as well.

I'm expecting top 100 to require 110 to 120m networth, which would keep all 16 of my countries out of the top 100.

80mil for t100... 150mil for top 50 is my guess

80 mil for top 100 is unlikely if TKO, PANLV, and NBK are all netting. Especially since GDI, SAS, and N will probably also have countries in the 80 to 120 mil networth range.

Ah, that's true. I'm not sure when you guys got to your 20k acres, so I don't know how soon you'll run out of stockpile.

It seems like a TON of theocracies from many different tags started jumping really early. Either they all have ridiculously big stockpiles, or they are going to run out of stockpile way too early and crash the military market.

Given how quickly food crashed this set, it seems really stupid to run out of stockpile with more than 1 or 2 days left in the set. And given how fast food crashed, I doubt that most of these TMBRs got more than $40 for their food stockpiles.

My guess is that a lot of people jumped the gun on switching to TMBR. Otherwise, we're gonna see all these high networth theocracies jumping another 100 million networth each before the set ends.

If these current countries that are in the top 200 were smart, then it will take about 160m networth just to make top 100. If they were dumb, it will be closer to 120m networth.

Well, with this being my 1st time doing this whole netting thing, in a serious manner. I may have switched to TMBR a little too soon, I really am not sure yet. I have already sold most of my stock and will likely be buying off my private market for another 3 days + before I run out. All depends really.

Before I start Reselling with 4 days left, I should have an AVG NW of around 60m. Not really sure how much I'll be able to grow off of reselling though. Like I said, this is my 1st time doing this.

I'm just guessing based on the fact that like 80% of the server including huge clans are netgaining. I have one I logged out at 67 and the scoreboard is thick with countries that are gonna bust out when they jump. I doubt I put one in the t100 this time because I pretty much have just taken turns this set. It was hard to concentrate or even have the desire to do anything for the first month after I broke my ankle and I've just started actually trying to do something with my 16 little crapcakes.

I'll probably FA one close to t100. We'll see.I'll do much better next set.

LOL, those cashers of yours are most likely stocked with 10's of billions of cash worth of stuff each. my half/set countries that I screwed around with trying different things should make 25/30 mil. if I had the other 1200 turns and had played them right they would have had 15/20 bil worth stocked.

The tech market crapped out so early I think a lot of people just gave up on teching and went ahead to TMBR which is why there are so many theo's high already.

Shoudl be same numbers as last set for top 50 and top 100. Maybe slightly higher. Top 10 and top 25 will be significantly higher with alot more people netting.

the food price comming down i think will affect ending NW more then most suspect. 38/39$ food was amzing for late destockers!

My completely unbased opinion is at least 100mil for top 100, probably 150+ for top 50.

My guesses:

t10: 450M
t25: 240M
t50: 180M
t100: 110M

All of these would be higher than the previous highs (most of which were from set 4, when PAN, LaE and TKO all had pretty good netting sets).

T10: 417M
t25: 227M
t50: 166M
t100: 109M

Compared to set 4, the private market bushel price is lower, which will hurt, but I believe the bonuses will make up for that.
I also believe that while the top thresholds move up a significant amount that the t100 won't move considerably, since from the rumblings I've heard, there are a lot more people shooting to make a super country than 16 solid ones. Also, while NBK certainly has considerable talent at playing this game, I'm gonna bank on the fact that they're not gonna put up quite as consistent of a performance as LaE did several sets ago.

well, looks like I'll only have ~4-6 in the top 100 with those predictions in mind...
