    As long as you have a high amount of workers and keep repopulating them every 7 days or so, around 100-150k is what I used to get... Now I'm lazy though and I only manage 20-30 workers, but I can still make 50-70k NP a day on Internet Explorer. ^_^
     
    the hardest part is making sure I don't have too much wood or other materials so that they keep working the whole time!

    Big sigh of relief over here! :laughingsmiley: I can't stop smiling. Thank you everyone, all of you are so great. Especially those of you who live in different countries, thank you for your support in all of this. Really, if Romney would have won I would have been scared to death of my own country.
     
    I'm so proud.

    Oh, no, I'm not saying they are. I'm saying that Romney doesn't care about white people that aren't rich, or people of colour that are rich. Unless people are:1)white
    2)rich
    3)straight
    4)male
    Republicans don't really care about them, or their rights.
    I had a sociology professor who had us watch it. While there were lots of things I agreed with, I think it was mostly just propaganda. :(

    You guys are probably a bit young to remember Dan Quayle except to read about him (maybe some of you aren't and can chime in?) but you know what, thinking more and more about Mitt Romney's incredible ability to stick his foot into his mouth and rotate reminds me of George Bush Sr.'s incredibly....well, DUMB vice president. Matter of fact, when I asked my husband, he remembered his name, and merely because of the fact that he was infamous for saying stupid things. Huh. History does repeat itself, doesn't it?
    That was a man I wouldn't have wanted in the White House, for any reason, whatsoever.
    I haven't gotten into this because my fellow Obama supporters have been so eloquent in outlining the madness of Mitt Romney's policies, I'd just be repeating myself - but it's so close now. I hope Obama can win through, I'm honestly terrified of what will happen if he doesn't.

    I am actually curious as to what minx meant too. Who exactly is the puppet master of which we speak? :P
     
    @Zelda - I agree, Mitt Romney has made some pretty stupid comments. One thing I really do not like about him is that he wants to make budget cuts in all the wrong places. Cutting funding for pbs, planned parenthood? Really? Psh, as if that even makes a dent in there budget. Not to mention that the majority of pbs funding comes from private donors. I mean, really? Oh and as far as cutting planned parenthood... let me just get this straight. He wants to abolish abortions, right? & Yet he is not interested in giving people contraceptions to avoid pregnancy? That right there is proof that he is basing every one of his stupid decisions on religion. He doesn't believe in equal rights for women or the gay community b/c it's against HIS religion. I cannot believe we are in 2012 and still fighting for our basic rights as human beings. What happened to freedom of religion or lack of? Ugh.
     
    Oh and let us not forget the flat out lies he has told on several different occasions nor has he accuratly revealed his so called five-point plan. He claims he will pay for his tax-cuts by closing loopholes and deductions, yet he hasn't named a single "loop hole" he is willing to close. Not only that, but his public manorisms say a lot about his character. I don't know, maybe it's just me... but Obama has a more calming, cool, compassionate demeanor about him that I really like. Romney always has that stupid smirk on his face. I won't go as far to say that Mitt Romney is evil. He is blindly following his "religion" and trying to make money off of it, like any other business man. I mean, of course Romney wants to lower taxes on the upper class and the big corporations (healthcare companies, for example). So that explains why he is willing to turn medicare and medicaid into a voucher system. More money for the both of them! they are the ones funding his campaign. Bank of America even gave him a whopping 1mil, among many other banks like wells fargo, JP morgan chase, Morgan Stanley, etc. Meanwhile, the majority of Obama's campaign money comes from private donors as well as a few large companies like google and microsoft.
     
    I just cannot believe a word that man says, I mean... come on. He was even called out and fact checked by the debate moderator about Libya.
     
    Anyways, I'm off my rant for now. If anyone's interested... I found this while surfing google. It's disgusting the things he has said, you can read the top ten dumb mitt romney quotes here.

    I'm personally leaning towards Obama. It's not that he hasn't made mistakes or that some of his policies aren't atrocious, but besides Romney's policies - which everyone here seems to have already covered adequetly enough for me :) - there's the fact that he tends to say a lot of really stupid things without thinking: Insulting China, the whole 47% thing... not to mention his original comments on that ridiculous anti-Islam film.... If he's elected president, he'll have resposbilities at the internationtal level that he won't be able to "take back" when one phrase could set off a war. Besides, I'm hoping if Obama is re-elected, he'll stop worrying about re-election and start implementing some actual change.
     
    Well, anyway, here's a really funny youtube video with a (sort-of true) overview of both candidates if anyone wants some less serious commentary. =D (i couldn't resist)

    ROTFL that vacuum cleaner picture seriously was too cute! i've never really thought of cats as anything other than little arrogant snots, though, so I still like them. lol. I'd never heard about the snake-mimicking thing, but it makes sense, so for now I'll believe it. ^_^ The article was obviously written by someone who doesn't know dogs well (or was just being saracastic...again) - since dogs have the same variety in tones as cats do. But that site is hilarious! I just spent a whole hour reading other things on there! :P
     
    Also, someone left a comment I find worth repeating: "Cats can be jerks, but at the end of the day they're still nicer than humans. : )" -Poet-C
     
    So true.
     
     
    Anyway, on the subject of cats, I found this on Howstuffworks.com - it's about purring:
     
    "Three sounds are unique to cats. The chortle, a happy greeting sound, sounds a lot like a quick, high-pitched chuckle. There's also that strange chirping or chattering noise cats make that's usually reserved for when they see birds outside the window. This is the elusive wacka-wacka, a term coined by famed cat cartoonist B. Kliban. Finally, the purr is, of course, the most sublime of all feline sounds. It's also one of the most hotly debated.
     
    "While a supremely contented cat will purr loudly, so will an extremely nervous or stressed one. This leads some researchers to think cats do it to reassure themselves. It's not even completely clear how cats purr. Most of the wild members of the cat family purr, but the household variety of cat is about the only one that can make the sound on both the exhale and the inhale."
     
    Has anyone else noticed their cats purred when stressed out? I always thought it was kind of odd... I also think it's really interesting how housecats in particular can purr both ways (inhaling and exhaling) while most other cats purr one way or not at all. And, although many books I've read on tigers says that the four "big cats" don't purr at all, apparently it's debatable. this video's interesting XD

    and obviously I like cats... I know a bit more about them than space, admittedly. Hopefully this is interesting to you guys, too :P

    Since someone mentioned Abortion I'd just like to chime in. Whether you are for or against abortion it is a personal matter. It doesn't mean you should be supporting Romney though. His idea to completely abolish abortion is insane. That would lead to women killing themselves and/or going overseas to have abortions, dying of infections... you get the idea.
     
    I don't think it's right at all for any politician to have any say whatsoever on a women's body. (Considering the fact that they are all men)

    ...well, I thought it was fine. Sure, it's over a few sentences long, but Qullaso has a few different points. (if you read any of the debate pages on here, many people write more...?)
     
    Anyway, I think the idea is interesting. There is a TED talk that i vaguely remember, now that i think about... I think it's cool that Planetary Resources plans to do this. I'm not sure it's entirely possible or realistic, though - particularly since the U.S. government hasn't been keen on putting money towards space programs like NASA recently. Considering that we're rapidly moving towards carrying capacity, though, and since genetically altered crops probably aren't going to allow the carrying capacity of the earth to stand us humans much longer, space exploration is really a good idea now.
     
    sidenote: but i can't say i'm a nerd. I just like Star Trek, astronomy, and environmental studies. lol ^_^

    Hopefully this scheduled maintenance will fix some of the existing Habi bugs and others as they pop up.
    This would make things easier for all of us who rely on our Habi as our main source of nps.
     
    As long as they don't add new levels before fixing the bugs I'm happy. :D
