Either way. As long as the attacker outnumbers you by around 13-15 brugs for every 1 of yours, you're dead within an hour :D

Quick wars ftw.

It does, once you buy blood you can be shot again. So you get shot, 5 minutes later you get shot again (10), then again (15). Then you buy blood right away (45 minute timer kicks in, you can't buy blood until the 60th minute now), you get shot right away again(15) . And then again (20), again (25), again (30).

etc.

Rankspots were removed because people would endlessly dupe. I wonder if admins have written down the difference between that scenario and this one where duping is being made easy (and more profitable for the player too) by simply using lackeys. Cause I just can't spot them.

Or more money, so people can more easily afford regular BF deals. Or more Obay. Or make donating codes cheaper so that more people can afford them in rl, so that there will be more on Obay, meaning they'd cost less, resulting in less ingame money, in turn lowering the asking price for packs of bullets, giving more people access to buying them.

And I think that wars end mostly because families run out of members, or enough members with enough bullets to take down targets. The supply of bullets is more than abundant, $700 - $800 bullets still don't get bought. Bulletfactories load up until some family arranges for them to be bought. The lackey system (and poker) keeps creating an inbalance of the economics. Lots of people, lots of bullets to be bought. But only the people that are 'good' enough to buy the bullets are the ones with money to buy more.

Buuuuuuuuuuuut. Stay on topic :f

When you use / me and it is quoted by someone else, let's say sbanks, it'd appear as if sbanks did / me in his original post.

Bullets easier to get? EASIER?!.

With a couple of hundred people online, and (8x 1000+) about 10K every minute in LBFs, you want it even easier? Not to mention the semi-loading codes 80% of the players get when trying to buy bullets. Why not just make an option to trade 2 DCs for a day's worth of LBF. Or would that take too much effort too?

And for the lackey rankers, they have a bullet lackey. Although it's buggy and taken down already, it's the means to your end, if you're willing to dip into your rl wallet for it.

No. Bullets should not be easier to get. Nothing worth having should be easier to get.
Separate the men from the boys!

lol ;D

Also Redspeert's fault.

Due to technical issues during the birth of Redspeert, comments in the Violenza article are now 'invisible', and there can't be posted. Rix is working on fixing it, hold on!

With this KA, you really need to outnumber your enemies. To get some highranks down, you need like 4 shooters. And probably only half of your own family is highranked, and of those only two thirds are online. So to shoot a family with 20-30 brugs in it, you will probably need 5 or 6 families to get a right amount of online shooters. And then hope to god your enemies are online and have no bloods that will jump in.

This KA will create only really big wars and bigger than life pacts. If that were even possible

How is it a glitch? Since there are still CD dons, GF should be a little above them. And CD dons should have an edge over ones that are just Bruglione.

The real glitch is the insane advantage of rankprogress though. A 200% brug or so has no problem killing a 101% Capodecina and surviving his backfire.

imo this whole KA should get a really good look at, it feels as if it is just as shitty as it used to be, just now without any predictability cause of Rob/Mia.

Too bad the abundance of willing people is easily compensated for by the lack of competent people.

zZz

Not possible. Conflict is still recovering from the Kurosawa war :((
Hope that Vaffanculo doesn't kill them now that Conflict is almost empty!

I think that besides lackeys, the 300 cap is also a (small) reason. When there was no limit to ranking, it was easier to determine that you were "ready" to go to war. With a reasonable finish line, and one that is pretty easily do-able with these Lackeys. So, another mentality switch - we're not ready for war until we have a lot of "300's".
And don't forget the dynamics of "our" politics on Omerta. The moment one side gets shot, their shooters get shot. So that pretty much prevents Violenza, Vaffanculo, Conflict, Vincitori and other families that have been doing this back and forth shooting for years now to open fire first. Cause they'll be killed most of the others.

Everyone's been doing that since what, 2.1?
First it was just the extra GF and the hammer. In 2.5 and onwards we've had Capodecinas too. But not a huge amount of sisterfamilies.
Then we became so focused on having a CD advantage over the rest that we started on it. Then there was a cap on amount of CDs in 3.0, the sisterfamily stuff really got started again. Then a cap of capos in general (on dm anyways), with a maximum of 7 capodecinas and a GF (5 capos, top 3). So that created more and more "reasons" to make sisterfamilies. And by now we have such a different mentality than in 2.x versions that we just put all members in 1 regime, once that capo hits 15 mil, a new capo comes. And we don't use more than 2 caporegimes. Why would we, you know?

I think it's a bit of both, changes in Omerta made us adapt to them, and even though we're basically back to where we started (No CDs, just 1 GF), the mentality we've gotten by adapting every time cannot be switched back. Only if we, out of a "moral" point of view, stop doing it.

But your enemies probably won't.

Log out of your script or at least press Stop before you login to Omerta through FF.

Hope this solves your problem.

Regards.

A severe punish should have been better imo, since admins were more or less aware of what was going on way before these accounts were old enough to poker. That doesn't mean the bug should be used though. But if Vaffanculo members (who are not the brightest people you'll ever meet) know about it, do they really think it's only them?

And instead of taking the money and purchased goods away from them, plus a nice punish to slap them on the wrists for being naughty, they throw them down the well and let someone else have their millions. This is just as odd as that time they decided to reward people for clicking kredu's link. Cause everyone that clicks a link spread by him must have just been really curious and had no idea what was going on.

(13:40:18) (LL|off) You killed this poor cheating/racist bastard with a tomato! He had $ 3,610,805 left in his pocket, which is yours now

Just wait until poker is back up, I heard this awesome trick and I'll make this 3.6 into 360 million.

I like mcgee's stories. I do however think he needs professional help. Both a shrink and a hooker.

In the 2.x versions, every time you died, you had to register again. Every time your dupe died, he had to register again. On every version, every server, you had to register again.
The 4 million Brando was talking about is most of all since 2003. So 8 years, 4,000,000 registrations. And in the 2.x versions a lot of those registered people were the same people re-regging as it used to be called.

The 3.2 statistics for .com read as following;
Users Registered: 61,748
Users Dead: 52,801

Most of those "registered" and dead accounts are still old accounts from 3.1 anyways, the ones they put numbers in front of instead of deleting them from the DB.

I have to say it's a stupid move to try to level up fast that way though.

Lol lol'ed at that.

MrWhite, I was just randomly hating. It's a MUST DO in a Conflict topic :(

scratzin, I was in vaffanculo. Doesn't that count as awesome?!?!?! :( x2

Rix, I lol'ed ;d
