Economic Growth and Market Manipulation

This is an area where lots of players find their interests lie.

Market Manipulation header01 Economic Growth and Market ManipulationPlayers can strategically buy and sell stock, hoping to predict the market and gain money once the selected product is in shortage. They can use many different Economic Strategies, including Ceo corporation based, State/Public corporation based, or a mixture of the two. There is a fully active share market in each world, in which shares can be bought and sold in order to achieve profit with market fluctuations or to receive a steady income from the corporation dividend each month.

Growth can be achieved through changes in the education system, with a higher ‘Teacher’ Education Priority, more teachers will be trained, and thus more schools can be built, leading to a higher trained workforce, and leaning towards a high-tech corporation economy. The Salaries of each worker type can be changed at will, higher wages stimulate higher tax revenue and higher commercial activity, whereas a lower salary base can encourage CEO’s to move in, or enable the maintenance of a large army.

An increasing number of countries in all worlds are now profitable and their economies are doing good. This is an improvement on the previous situation when many new players have not succeeded in reaching a profitable situation.

We have added features that help new players by setting some essential parameters to support the economy. More will be done in the near future to help new players. Direct financial support to such players becomes less essential. It will remain but at lower levels.

At the same time, numbers in Simcountry continue to decline. The exchange rate is now around 90B per gold coin and many other base values have changed along with the declining exchange rate.

Corporations that used to make profits at the level of 2B per game month while the exchange rate was 300B per gold coin may now see their profits becoming lower but in terms of gold coins, the profits are now much higher.

Corporation values are lower. A corporation that had a market value of 3T while the exchange rate was 300B per gold coin had a value of 10 gold coins.
Now or in the future, it may have a market value of 1T with an exchange rate of 90B per gold coins or 11 Gold coins.

The process is slow with wide fluctuations that depend on the markets but the trend is was toward lower values in game money but higher values in gold coins.

Watching the account status pages, you can see a continuous increase of assets values across all the worlds.

Security-Council-header01
May. 18.

The Security Council

The security council consists of the top and most active players on the worlds.

Security Council header01 The Security CouncilThey make decisions regarding the peace and prosperity of the world. A non-security country can propose that a certain contry be restricted from certain actions. Such as having nukes, havig nuclear facilities and using nuclear attacks.

They can also force peace treaties and give untied developmental aid.

Each world in Simcountry has a security council. The members of the Security Council are presidents of countries that have won a first place in their world. Each SC member will remain in the Security Council for 6 months.

The Security Council has 15 members, all different players. Any double membership is cancelled and the number of members will be increased by random choice of countries.

A country president can be chosen if he is an active player, meaning that he has logged in very recently. Randomly chosen Security Council members will stay for two real months and will be removed from the council following that period. They may be chosen again immediately by the same random process but that is unlikely.

Security Council members can cancel their membership. If any player is not interested in being a member, he/she can cancel the membership and will be removed immediately.

The random process can put these members back into the council but the chance is not very high and they are free to remove themselves again.

The random process will check the membership in the council each game month. If the number is lower than 15, it will add one member. If membership is very low, filling up the council up to 15 members may take several game months.

The SC members can bring up proposals for a general vote. Only proposals that have been accepted in the SC will be brought up for a general vote.

The SC needs a majority of votes for a proposal to be accepted. Any four members of the SC can together block a decision from moving to a general vote.

A proposal that was accepted by the council becomes a resolution. Resolutions are put to a vote by all countries and can be accepted by a simple majority.

All members (all countries) pay the SC a fee that depends on the population of the country. The fee is 100 million per 5 millions in population. The population is rounded up to a 5 million multiply. A country with a population of 7 million is paying 200 million per game month. A country with a population of 32 million, pays 700 million per month.

The use of the money is subject to resolutions by the council and the members.

Budget

Each Simyear, you have the opportunity to set the annual budget.

budget header01 BudgetSimcountry is an unlimited free game, it runs five virtual worlds with more than 23.000 countries. It is both a strategy war game and a financial strategy game.

As a president and commander in chief, you are responsible for the army, its weapons and ammunition and for the quality of your Military Units.

If you forget to set the budget for the following year, or if you deviate significantly from your proposed budget, the consequences are minor at best.

The budget is supposed to be a guestimate for how much you are going to spend on each of the various items your country spends money on. It does not affect how much you can actually spend, or how much you actually will spend. Currently, budget is something best ignored.

SimCountry

SimCountry is a huge game. It can be played as a ruler, merchant, politician, or a combination of roles.

Simcountry header01 SimCountrySimCountry is a Virtual Worlds Strategy Game and a Massive Online Simulation Game offering unlimited free membership. There are five virtual worlds running with more than 23.000 virtual countries. SimCountry is a MMORPG where presidents run their own countries, build their economies and compete for power.

War can be part of the game and many large empires try to dominate regions and continents. Playing a peaceful president is an option and many play the economic strategic game and trade virtual assets.
SimCountry is a feature rich internet game and includes virtual share trading in many public corporations. There are large numbers of virtual corporations, run by the president that are producing hundreds of products. Simcountry has a space program, with space stations and active shuttle traffic.

SimCountry players can decide to play the War Game and build a large army that will allow them to attack and conquer neighbouring countries or land forces in other parts of the world and build bridge heads for their empire.

You can decide to purchase weapons or to build military equipment corporations and produce weapons and ammunition for your army, trade in weapons on the market and build strategic stocks for future wars.

There are a variety of possible strategies for success, and many debates about which strategies are most effective.

Each player can develop his own goals and strategies.

The game emphasizes arithmetic, in essence; the actions one takes tend to be numerical, and their consequences are usually expressed numerically as well.

However, SimCountry is arithmetical in a broad, rationalist way, involving logic, associations, commutations, and distributions. Although the actual computations are mostly very simple, quantitative relationships are central. The game is arithmetical in a way similar to chess.

Many things in SimCountry will puzzle you, even after years of playing. You are more likely to find solutions by thinking in terms of the arithmetic of necessary relationships.

The Economy

A strong economy will create high revenues and profit that you can use in many ways.

GOTW header03 The EconomyYou can choose for high income, good welfare, health, education and social security but you can also choose for putting resources into your army. You can build a financial reserve or you can purchase many privileges in the game or provide loans to others for profit.

Your country can create assets, including share portfolios and become a controlling share holder of many corporations.

If you have a very large reserve of game money, you can exchange it into gold coins and under some conditions, into real cash that is paid out using PayPal.

The welfare index is one of the most influential indexes in Simcountry. The welfare index in each country is composed of several other indexes and is used in many game functions as an indicator of the general situation in the country.

The higher the index, the happier the people in the country and the better they function in corporations and in any other jobs in the country.

The index can fluctuate between 50 (and is some cases even lower), and 130.

The welfare index is taking the lowest value of several other indexes:
The health index
The Education Index
The Transportation index
The Supply index + 30
The Employment index + 40
The Social Security Index + 10
The Government Salary Index

The new value of the welfare index depends on the previous value of the index, combined with the new value as computed several times each day.

The welfare index is used in the computation of the corporate welfare index in each corporation, which is essential in the productivity of the corporation.

In addition, the welfare index also depends on population transfers out of the country. When population is sold off for gold coins, the welfare index will start to decline and will take a while to recover. If several such transfers have taken place, the welfare index may decline much further and even end up at lower than 50 which is intended as a minimal value.

A last factor in the welfare index is the game level of the player. The higher the game level, the higher the index will be.

To achieve very high levels of productivity in corporations, we advise you to increase your game level as high as possible (You will also receive level awards in hundreds of gold coins), and to raise the education, health, transportation and employment indexes to levels above 100. A higher welfare index will result in even higher production levels that are possible today.

Corporations-header01

Corporations

Private Corporations produce all the products that are used by all countries and they can generate high profits.

Corporations header01 CorporationsThese  corporate profits are an essential part of the country’s income.

Check whether your corporations are running at full capacity. Find the reasons if they do not, and try to improve. Tune sale strategies to make sure your corporations sell everything they produce and make sure they get the raw materials they need for production at full capacity.

Check the world market and find out which products are in short supply and strengthen your economy by setting up corporations that produce these products. Upgrade the quality and efficiency of your corporations, to make them more competitive. Make sure your education system produces the professionals you need in your corporations and try to achieve a 100% hiring levels in all your corporations. It is better to have a smaller number of corporations producing at full capacity than a larger number, with lower production levels. Low production corporations are not profitable.

The Corporation’s Super Booster
A new booster is introduced today that boosts a single corporation to a level of 100 quality upgrades and 100 efficiency upgrades in a single action.

The starting position of the corporation does not make any difference in the way the booster works. If the corporation was already upgraded to a level of 120, the result will be the same. The corporation will be upgraded to a level of 200. (Base level of 100 and 100 upgrades). One single booster is needed to upgrade both the quality and efficiency.

The booster requires 10 GCs and extends the expiration date of the country by 10 days.
