    Homes have a job. Their job is to house people.
    TehDude your strategy would do better if you had 100% jobs fill this will keep your BE from drop even with the 67% barren land. The strategy could work but it is risky.

    Taken from the guide directly.

    thats where you are wrong =)
    a barren acre does not produce any jobs
    if you paradice/explore (ie GAIN non-built land) the following numbers will not increase

    Workers Needed for Max Efficiency:
    Current Available Jobs:
    if you build them into homes, those numbers will not increase
    (FYI, these numbers can be found on the internal advisor page)

    It is not about employment it is about jobs fulfilled. A home's job is to house people. A berran acre of land's job is to have a building built on it. Failing to meet that criteria makes its job unfulfilled which equals to 1% unfilled jobs.

    back on topic - would it not be better to just run GS with your barren land since your goal is to reduce peoples gains on you?

    I guess so. But you don't want to cause too much of a rattle snake.
    It's about 16% more def or 21% less losses.

    Anyone with me on putting vines on the ignore-list? he really doesnt seem willing or capable of learnng what we try to teach him.

    Its a quite fun idea, TDA :P Not really sure if you would be worth the sapce thought.
    And i believe building the barren lands would spoil the idea a little bit?

    China you have to state your claim as to why you disagree. Other wise it is here-say and adds nothing to the conversation

    This is seriously one of the best post I've ever read on Utopian boards.
