There have been two land updates that I know of. Both have been off the mark. The one in December reported stable prices, when in fact prices had been rising since September and were up a couple of points at least. Did you agree with Jack's assessment in the December report that prices were stable (not rising) and the average price was at L$6.3/sq.m.?

This latest report is saying prices are rising when I've seen the opposite the last few months. Others like Chaos have the same understanding of the market. Prices have been stable lately. I don't see this trend to higher prices that Jack is reporting.

You think reporting that they are going to increase new land "to at least 10 regions per day" and they have a new continent in the wings would lead to stable prices??? That they are cutting island prices by 40%?? It's not emotional for people to lower prices under these circumstances, its a pretty sound decision. Let me ask you this: had they said they'd increase regions to 20 per day and cut island prices 80%, do you still think people lowering prices would be a bad move?

As for me leading the charge, that's not true. I've heard from a few people who dumped lots of land to you right away - good for them. I've purchased 90K sq.m. since the crash happened, probably second only to NinjaLand. :P I got around 18 parcels listed that you assume are dumps when they are in fact parcels I got for lower prices. You don't really know what you're talking about really.
