Thats kind of black PR of mine. 

Yes you're right chronos. But don't forget that maximum growth is 10% for gold and 5% for non-gold account. Also when the ammount of your workers will be really huge you just can't supply them with ammount of biofarms needed. but when you reach this ammount and this feature would be available you could switch it to credits or ships as well

To Finis.
to jump in rank you just easily must knew your current rank without ships or with them in reserve. Your score depends on segments(about 2mil for each 1000 i think). On your sercret  base workers amount(don'y jnow how affect) and money in stash and on hand; maybe yuor comander level is affect too but I don't think that much.
So your power without ships is minimum. And returning your ships from reserve give you power buy cheap power ships and you grow more. All depends on yuor money you can easily join top 100 with 300mil creds only by powerships. Then when you do your job your reserve fleet and go down so even counter can't get you. there better way is to reserve everything except powerships then after first attack you drop in power so much that next counter can't get you and you will be safetly down rank in nebula =)

of course I can. If you know what is reserve, powerships and have money you can jump in ranks as you want.

Sometimes reserve, sometimes lose. But mostly reserve with high income gain.

Frank you can give your designs directly to me and your alliace will be free from my attacks. Even you can show me your enemies to be destroyed=)

Powerships, Warner, powerships.

Yeah powerships gave me a lot of XP with practicaly no loses. I like it=)

I don't know names of your alts. I attack everyone that I don't know. If your alts don't have money and ships I take your segments if they don't have even segments then what a hell are they doing in high rank???

I'm open for attack for everyone as you all open for attacks by me . this is just a game and I play it my way. If you don't like it you may try to stop me . You all buy ships make money from missions, and I take your ships and make money from them. We just playing other styles.

Since missions is 15 turns. I decided that you all are my missions... for 5 turns. With god reward by your ships. And of course much more easy
