Ie if You build 10 20m2 factories in an area and max the employees then 20 more people will now live in that area- say Germany.

Each of those 20 people need resources, for example each one will need maybe 20 gas a day, certain amount of milk and other food resources, and 1 in 100 of the people may need a golden watch etc.

These resources vary. But usually demand will far outdo supply. Unless you move into jewelry where the ratio is 1 person in 100 i believe and if you get big in that industry then you could probably nearly supply all of that on your own.

Gas for example though I don't think will ever fall short. Say every person needed 30 gas daily then a basic gas station of 20m2 would only need to sell 500 gas daily(48hour cycle) And minus the 2 employees you have in there 440 left to sell daily you need 15 more people. Most of whom would come from other production chains and your own production chain to make the power, oil and the gas itself :)

ohh thats rather cool. i did not think that the demand was based on the number of people we have in our buildings.

lol so probably this game was created thinking everyone will be producing things all the time. but there are 140,000 players and i think probably max half are active. so i guess that makes the demand really high. they all got employees but not producing anything.

I think this is why old accounts don't get deleted for being inactive as being done in other games.
They are still important to the game and somehow people tend to end up playing again at some point just when they think of the game again.

1 of the main reasons i like this game.
I've been inactive regularly and despite the breaks i could always continue playing when i felt like it.
Thats also why i like spending time in here, i know when i don't feel like playing next year i will get back to the game and find out i didn't lose anything but time, while other games i play your account usually gets destroyed within days after quitting.

lol, people should not get banned for telling people that what they are doing is wrong:) goldeneyes should have told me that it was completely aginst the rules before banning me. lol the whole point of that was to see if anyone would tell me if what i was doing was wrong. lol, i realize now it is wrong. lol but i guess it too late!! lol

but i got a calculator and now can program in it so i will be comsumed by that instead of this game. lol but i will just have to say i enjoyed this game. i just really would have liked to see the price of gass go high in the market cuse i was buying all the qo gas and selling for 1cap profit so i could move a lot of product!! lol. but i only moved it up 5 caps in the short time i was doing it :(

The only "lol"-thing in this context is that it does not make any difference to tell me about this or not: The rules are clear and the system obviously works.
That is "lol". ;)

And now we come back to the original topic, please.

You mean Samuel Clemens? Mark Twain is his pen name by the way. ;)

His pen name comes from gauging the depths of waters on the Mississippi.

At any rate, cool.
