This might not be appropriate for this forum, but if any knows about the new sim city it will focus on team cooperation with other players and I wanted to form a mises group. Anyone interested?

I'll be playing the new simcity if I don't have to install Origin (which means I might be playing through tunggle if you know or have that).  It might be fun ot try and manage the economy according to anarchist principles.  Assuming I have any time at all to play games.

"according to anarchist principles"

You mean, installing the game and then waiting to see what happens?

Well, by non-cooperative cooperatione imperatives (self-interest & calculation).

I will not install Origin on my computer.  It is corporate spyware designed to record every action you take on your PC.  I will have to board the distribution ship and commandeer a copy so that I can use Tunggle.  (hint: Tunggle tricks the game into thinking that, since it won't have online access, that the LAN settings of the game are actually its internet connections.  So you play LAN games through the internet!)

Civilization FTW!

 

To paraphrase Marc Faber: We're all doomed, but that doesn't mean that we can't make money in the process.

Civilization is too kiddie for me anymore although it is fun to nuke everyone constantly.  I like Victoria II (1834-1934 - grand strategy).  Victoria has ancaps and ancoms in it that you can ideologically progress.  Managing the state is damn hard, especially with war and rebellions.
