I agree to stay on point. I addressed Ranga's foolishness in a private message. The main point is that the game is no longer about skill and/or equal access to tools/resources... even if gold/money is involved, if everyone has the same access to spend money for the same tools/resources, then the game is fair on a basic level.
This situation has undone that basic fairness. Therefore it is no longer about strategy and "skill" or even time spent playing the game. It is about luck. If you were lucky to get the offer... then you have a ticket to 5x more BP than someone that did not. Today I sent one attack and killed 1200 dlu... I got 6k abp. I have been busy doing multiple things this evening and still have over 30k abp just goofing around. Next time I feel like it I can make 100k bp and have a guaranteed positive units lost to bp ration. No matter how bad the odds.
And I have this advantage, which will give me extra cities, which give me the opportunity to grow even more (it is like compound interest), ... I have this advantage strictly by chance. Not out of anything else. We might as well be playing bingo, slot machines, or keno. Grepolis is now little different than a game of chance.
I want nothing to do with that and neither does anyone else in TS.
