Is Australia racist? 10 stunning stats

That's not how Civilization works.

Seriously, this is a world domination game forum and we should we should know better.

ikr? I nominate NoProblem for a five-day forum ban for crimes against strategy games.

apply this island idea to the game Civilization.

you have a island 45 square miles. .population of 9200 people.. and you have it in sync. everything is working perfectly. but you only have room / resources for 800 more people. no more room to build anything . and of course you do not want to hit you max capacity every civilization needs a surplus.

then the game suddenly starts dumping 500 more people on your island every month of game play..
how soon will you a become a Banana Republic and be forced to sacrifice key things needed for society in order to accommodate the new population numbers and how quickly will you loose the game..?

That's not how Civilization works.

what do you mean that's not how Civilization works..?

You couldn't dump population 'on an island' in Civilization, only into the main cities. And if your cities did suddenly increase in size, you can't 'sacrifice key things' as a trade-off and damage your economy in the process. All that will happen is eventually your cities will get too big for the nearby land to sustain everyone, and the population will start starving and shrinking back down to a level that the nearby land can sustain. Generally a city surrounded by farms will max out at around 30-32 million people and then get stuck. If you artificially inflate a city to 50 million it will just shrink back down to that 30-32m band.

thanks for explaining why illegal immigration is bad for a nation.. .I like the part where millions die off from starvation.
kudos to Ma'amDCk for this awesome reinforcement of the argument illegal immigration destroys a country..

( manipulating your opponent into joining your side.. = classic!)

when did you move the goalposts and began to call it "illegal immigration", NP? last time i checked in here, you were using African immigrants, i believe...

this phenomenon is what is referred to as the 'flow of a conversation..'
the original article about Australia referenced African immigrants.. .. I didn't mention African Immigrants.. the Article I quoted did..

but since then.. the conversation has flowed onto another subject..

learn to follow a conversation Llama..
your making yourself seem.. Canadian..

now why would i want to waste any more time than i already have in this pointless quagmire of a thread, NP? go outside, dude - it's summertime... .

it's a 45 square mile island... where are you going to put them..? are you going to force people to tear down their homes so you can build a 500 apartment skyscraper every month..?
good luck accomplishing that feat..

Singapore is one of the most crowded islands on earth and has a great standard of living.

Hong Kong and New York City, both built about 80% on islands, are among the wealthiest cities on earth.

Going back a little further in time, Zanzibar, Lubeck, Rhodes, etc., were the economic powerhouses of their time.

In most cases nobody has to be forced to tear down their home. They're happy to sell when the moneybags come calling.

I changed the subject and didn't tell anybody, the way conversations work.

Singapore has Tightened its Immigration Policies, But There is still Hope

"For the past few years, Singapore has been bringing changes in the immigration and dependent privileges. They are aimed at limiting the number of foreigners immigrating to Singapore. The changes are expected to relieve the strain on the infrastructure and resources."

I guess Splooge has resorted to just making up Fake Quotes for people and uses words like "explanated " to try to sound coherent..

if you cannot follow the flow of the conversation ( like numerous other members have been able to do on this thread...) it just shows' how ignorant you are..

It's called summarizing. You learn about it in school.

oh...
School..
that place they teach you things..
ok . gotcha..

just let me know the definition of " explanated " that they taught you in that School YOU went too...

I know explanate means to "Flatten or Spread out" .
never heard it used with a D on the end.. or used in the reference you say to --> "Summarize"

seems Summarizing would be the opposite of Explanate

I tried finding the definition of " explanated " ..but it doesn't exist..
