I know diminishing return D: i just had a test on it today. "The output value is more than the input value, but it is less than the previous output value (the rate of increase is just decreasing, but the overall rate is still positive, so increasing.)".

Antonis said:
...but even if we do nothing (not spending turns at all)...


Diminishing return does not apply to that. If you dont spend any turns then your marginal output is 0. It is neither positive return, nor negative return, nor diminishing return. Besides if MIG was on a diminishing return, then it would be harder to catch up because WE WOULD STILL BE INCREASING.

I dont want to argue or something, just wanted to point it out..still in an economics-mind after the test.

Syfox,

You do not perfectly understand this though. The key point is that the rate of diminishing return applies not only to MiG but to the Untouchables as well. However, since we are so far below MiG we will gain power faster than MiG does. There are other problems that MiG is currently facing that I won't discuss at the moment that should provide the Untouchables with an advantage as well. I would hate to give you any more ideas since you seem to be pretty bright :).

You must keep in mind that if MiG, in fact, did nothing it's power would actually decrease. Part of the gang power equation hinges on personal power. Part of the personal power equation depends on crime income from the past few days. In effect, gang power would decrease if MiG did nothing.

That is wrong. your gang has less than 30 mil power right now. we can gain that amount of power in a single day.
I don't think we face any serious problems right now. Far from it, since everyone is back from vacation we'll start playing seriously from now on.

(21:33:39) Rodachul: it is a legitimate way to find info.

just making sure you do not confuse crime performance with cash-xp gain. According to the ranking changes we had at the start of this set, ranking does not any longer gives you a bonus for steady perfomance on crimes (btw, there will be a small change to this when the crime journal feature is installed)

I stand corrected. So you are saying that what counts is cash and xp gain?

still too soon...i mean max level is 100 you should at least allow reasonable time for someone who is close to 100 to be able to get it.. i dont think anyone is over 60, im probably wrong tho...
