Even after 10 years you can't do much either...

There's nothing particulary fun in this game (job). It's like a smoking habit.
So, if a new player somehow manage to get addicted, he''ll stay for a long time.


Award display level priority · · 1 like


For some reason, users don't get networth award if they are not active/online.
Since I was inactive for a long time, I got these rewards once I got online.
I don't know if this is supossed to work like this, and if this is bug or not, but that's how it is.


But this is where problem with award display level arose.

Soon after I got online i got these networth awards :

Networth (12) - 09/10/15 6:10 PM - Baron $10,000,000,000

[image: s13.postimg.org]


But just 5 minutes after i got :
Networth (10) - 09/10/15 6:15 PM i got award : Billionaire $1,000,000,000

[image: s3.postimg.org]

Now on my profile page, it displays Networth(10) as my hightest networth award, which is wrong.
System apparently favours latest earned award in category, rather than award level/priority.

Maybe there are similar errors for other awards as well. Query comparison of displayed award and highest earned level award
for all awards, could give some answers.

Nuclear testing at Bikini Atoll

[image: 4.bp.blogspot.com]

Between 1946 and 1958, 23 nuclear devices were detonated by the United States at seven test sites located on the reef, inside the atoll, in the air, or underwater.[17] They had a combined fission yield of 42.2 Mt. The testing began with the Operation Crossroads series in July 1946. Prior to nuclear testing, the residents initially accepted resettlement voluntarily to Rongerik Atoll, believing that they would be able to return home within a short time. Rongerik Atoll could not produce enough food and the islanders starved. When they could not return home, they were relocated to Kwajalein Atoll for six months before choosing to live on Kili Island, a small island one-sixth the size of their home island. Some were able to return to the Bikini Island in 1970 until further testing revealed dangerous levels of strontium-90. The islanders have been the beneficiary of several trust funds created by the United States government which as of 2013 covered medical treatment and other costs and paid about $550 annually to each individual.





World Heritage Site

Because the site bears direct tangible evidence of the nuclear tests conducted there amid the paradoxical tropical location, UNESCO determined that the atoll symbolizes the dawn of the nuclear age and named it a World Heritage Site on 3 August 2010.[52][53]
Bikini Atoll has conserved direct tangible evidence ... conveying the power of ... nuclear tests, i.e. the sunken ships sent to the bottom of the lagoon by the tests in 1946 and the gigantic Bravo crater. Equivalent to 7,000 times the force of the Hiroshima bomb, the tests had major consequences on the geology and natural environment of Bikini Atoll and on the health of those who were exposed to radiation. Through its history, the atoll symbolises the dawn of the nuclear age, despite its paradoxical image of peace and of earthly paradise.[52][54]

Why not many more people become subscriber? · · 2 likes


If I recall correctly, subscriber model was built as part of the failed experiment (removing tradable donator packs).
When that experiment was terminated, and DP's were made tradable again, subscription model wasn't removed.

Why would anyone subscribe and tie themselves into permanent commitment, when they can be free and purchase DP's as they want?
Either they want gifts/rewards/books, or to show off with the subscriber icon.
One can purchase any amount of DP's monthly and send them for example to the user Id:1, if the only reason for paying ("donating") is supporting the game financially. You don't want to think about this every month? Then buy 10DP 44$/year (cheap as you say), and send them maybe to Duke [4]...

In a subtle way OP, you are kinda implying that only subscribers are supporters.
And my opinion is that lot of subscribers just want perks, and the "supporting the game story" is just a nice add-on.

The place of donator packs in gameplay · · 3 likes


DP is practically worthless in game money value, and one cannot make any significant advantage purchasing them with cash.
It can help new players to start out, but nothing much...

100$ to get an PI ?
200$ for MCS block ?

IMHO in-game DP price is ridiculously cheap and I would advise buying DP's as a long term investment to everyone who can afford it.

In the stock market, collect dividend option with 24h timer. Same like for the bank cheques.
If you don't collect it within 24h, it's collected automatically.
