Schrödinger’s cat
try figuring it out yourself you have all the information you need
so that’s 9 levels right there.
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc Ok moo, is this your building levels? Minus the rec buildings. In total, 6 for AS factory, 10 for regular Factories, 24 for Refineries, 18 for Oil Rigs and 7 for Power plant? If that’s wrong just say that it’s wrong not how it’s wrong. I think it’s wrong.
MIGHTY MOO INC
It’s wrong 🙂
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Ok then back to the drawing board.
@Mighty Moo Inc I’ll let you know if I ever think that I was able to get it…. spoiler: I’m probably not going to
BUKSI A.S.
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES just from the map probably not. Without other info. E.g. how much fuse she makes per 20 mins 😉
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Oh wait a sec, I might be able to use the profit info to get an answer here…. 923k in a day…. 1,722 sourcing cost…. that could help…..
@Mighty Moo Inc What Quality do you sell at?
MIGHTY MOO INC
not telling 😉 Q wouldn’t matter here anyway
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc Ok, but actually it could. Because the Q would affect the sellling price. I would use the selling price with the profit of 923k and sourcing cost of 1,722 you listed to calculate how much fuses you sell a day and then find out the building levels via capacity. But I can do it a different way then I suppose.
MIGHTY MOO INC
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES That would be the hard way of doing it.
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc There is an easier way?
MIGHTY MOO INC
Yes, I think so anyway.
BUKSI A.S.
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES assuming she sells all her capacity of course.
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc What easier way?
MIGHTY MOO INC
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES I think that’s what @The Center wanted you to learn. 😀
@Mighty Moo Inc Ohhhh….. Well then I am failing at that task so far lol.
MIGHTY MOO INC
Have you taken Algebra in school?
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Of course I have. Why do you ask?
MIGHTY MOO INC
That is my only hint I will give you 🙂
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Ok so something with multiple equations then…. systems that intertwine? Hmmm…..
BUKSI A.S.
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES you do not need to complicate it that much 😉
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
I’m probably overthinking this so much
MIGHTY MOO INC
No quantum physics required, and Schrödinger’s cat can stay in the box.
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc But is the cat a live one, or a dead one? Or both at the same time, both quantum possibilities converging on a single moment in time, no way to tell which is which until the box is opened, the possibilities converging into a single reality?
MIGHTY MOO INC
Yes.
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
And that is still easier than finding out your building levels for some reason…. lol
MIGHTY MOO INC
😁
THE CRIMSON PERMANENT ASSURANCE
Ok, try to imagine all the building levels in a box…
MIGHTY MOO INC
With a cat in each level..
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc Ok I’m trying this again, Moo…. let’s see if I got it this time… probably not…. ok. So, in total 28 levels for refineries, 12 for factories, 6 for the AS Factory, 12 for the Oil Rigs and 7 for the Power Plant. This is ignoring the rec building. By sheer luck was I somehow right?
MIGHTY MOO INC
No 🙂
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Yeah thinking back that couldn’t make sense, because then you could only make 400 fuses a day. Ok trying again…. hmmmm…..
MIGHTY MOO INC
🧮
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc Ok I am trying this one more time. This fails I might give up. Or not. I shall see if this even works. Ok, first of all still 28 total levels for refineries. Then still 12 for factories. But now 7 for the AS Factory, 10 in total for the Rigs, and 8 for the power plant, grant total of 65 levels not including the rec buildings. Is that right? By any possible chance?
MIGHTY MOO INC
Nope 🙂
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Can you tell me if any of that is right? As in, are there at least 28 levels for refineries, 12 levels for factories, etc.
MIGHTY MOO INC
lol nope… no telling 🙂 At least not until The Center says I can give hints.
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Ok then…….
Day 2 11/23/2020
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Oof I’m gonna lose my COO… I’m just not willing to upgrade his salary from 17k to 27k…. oh well.
BUKSI A.S.
I should put a beared in the dog and a hat 😀
@Patrik free SB, cool 😉 I did not know what I want for Christmas, now I know! 😉
PLANKS R US
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES I’ll have him for 27k!!
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Planks R Us Is that still not a bad price for a COO? He has 32 managment skill. Should I keep him?
PLANKS R US
He can sit in one of my none coo seats that are filled with coo 😃
I’d rip your arms off for a 32 skill coo at only 27k lol
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Planks R Us Oh, I learned that managment doesn’t work as well for admin overhead if they aren’t in the COO spot. For example, 27 managment skill in a CMO spot will only make admin overhead go down by like 5 percent, while meanwhile it would go down by 15 percent in the COO spot for that skill.
So maybe I should keep him then…. though I have one with a shorter sallary and skill of 27 in my CMO spot right now
PDVSA
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES Admin overhead reduction does not work like you just said.
PLANKS R US
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES I think I pretty much know how 4 coo work 🤣🤣🤣
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
it’s alright…he was not around for 8 months
PLANKS R US
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES I have a 40 in my coo slot so she’s not moving
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
Give him a break
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@PDVSA Really? Because in my CMO spot I have someone with 27 managment, and it only made admin overhead fall to 22% redction compared to the original 17.5% reduction from the 32 skill COO.
PLANKS R US
@Oil and Natural Gas Company he never mentions it…..how strange
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Wha Wha Wha?! His skill went up to 33!
How?
PLANKS R US
I’m so going to poach that one if alchem doesn’t get him first
*presses poach good exec button*
PDVSA
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES See: simcompanies.com/new…
PATRIK
The new HQ exec screen show work again
MIGHTY MOO INC
Good morning all. . @ascend if you’re still working on figuring out my map, I upgraded a building while you were sleeping.
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc Well then you have to tell me which one then, or else it could be any of them…..
MIGHTY MOO INC
@Patrik I do like the new exec screen! The only problem is my COO has a long name and it runs into her skill bar. That’s a little hard to read (on tablet). Not an issue on desktop
BUKSI A.S.
Lol, well you can kind of guess.
MIGHTY MOO INC
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES you should be able to tell. 🙂
BUKSI A.S.
With a pretty good certainty
And hey I wasn’t here 8 months, too 😉
STRONGHOLD
something up with GO area i thinkith
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
I think I got it Moo!
@Mighty Moo Inc Is it 6 AS Factories, 12 Factories, 26 Refineries, 15 Oil Rigs and 7 Power Plant for all levels, bringing grand total to 66 levels not including Rec buildings. Is that right?
Oh, and if that is right I understand why you sourcing cost is so much lower. It’s the lower admin coupled with a much higher bonus.
BUKSI A.S.
Her total lvl is 75 though
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Buksi a.s. Not counting the recs. With recs, 66 plus 9 is 75.
CRASH AEROSPACE
The recs don’t have employees
BUKSI A.S.
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES recs have no workers. You are missing 9 lvls.
CRASH AEROSPACE
Her productive lvls are 75
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES it’s been fun reading through though
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Crash Aerospace Wait, but the Center said that the recs didn’t count for levels and so there would be 65 levels, 66 with the new upgrade….
CRASH AEROSPACE
If that’s what he said he was he was mistaken
BUKSI A.S.
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES each lvl has 100 workers.
@Crash Aerospace he said thay do not add to admin …
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Oh no…..
CRASH AEROSPACE
@Buksi a.s. That is true
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Oof to me then. Back to the drawing board.
BUKSI A.S.
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES I like your attitude of bit giving up 🙂 Repeat until done!
*bit =not
PE SE
Product markets start falling slowly, component markets will follow soon… Is the 25ths still supposed to be doomsday?
PLANKS R US
Watching Ascend try and work this simple problem out is the best entertainment I’ve had in last 24hrs….and still he is nowhere near 🤣
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Planks R Us Well partly because this entire time I have been assuming that he has 66 total building levels that aren’t recs because of what The Center said, but now I find out it has been 75 levels the whole time….
PLANKS R US
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES moo is a she
PDVSA
He…
PIONEER HOLDINGS LLC
bfr prices have dropped and yet REs are sky high
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Oh sorry, I didn’t know
I assumed that she had 66 building levels because that is what The Center said
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
Verifying is better than assuming
Anyways
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Oil and Natural Gas Company Well, now I know
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
Since he has failed to produce an answer he will now on not mention his absence
ANDREW CORP
I don’t know what I just walked into, but I decided to add my pronouns to the top of my profile.
MIGHTY MOO INC
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES no, still not correct
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Ok im trying again for Moo’s levels. Who knows, maybe I got it this time? Ok, so it is I believe: 7 aerospace factories
13 factories
17 oil rigs
29 refineries
9 power plants
Is that it @Mighty Moo Inc
MIGHTY MOO INC
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES no
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc What really?! Still?!
MIGHTY MOO INC
Really.. Still 😂
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc Are you sure?
I really feel like this is the one
@Mighty Moo Inc Just check again please I really feel like this is it. Building levels: 7 aerospace factories
13 factories
17 oil rigs
29 refineries
9 power plants
MIGHTY MOO INC
That is not my map.
ASCEND INDUSTRIES7 minutes ago
Was I close?
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
My power guy: Doubled shipment because may not be on to send tomorrow .
MIGHTY MOO INC
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES closer than some of your guesses, but not exactly close, no.
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
Cmon ascend you are close with one of it
and its easy after you figure out that one
Almost done with Q5 crude and Q4 power
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc Wait a sec…. do you make fuses only or do you make something else?
THE CENTER
you are still stuck on this?
Why not just make your own map and not worry about someone else’s so much.
MIGHTY MOO INC
Lol, I only make fuses and the components that go in them.
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@The Center Well I wouldn’t be, but then this became a challenge to see if I could do it.
THE CENTER
You can’t.
All you can do is guess.
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
But I thought there was an actual way!
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY less than a minute ago
there is
THE CENTER
Since there’s millions of possible ways Moo could have it arranged.. you are just throwing spit balls at the numbers.
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
I figured out exact number of Moos building levels
THE CENTER
exact building levels or exact buildings and their levels?
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
Yes..the later
THE CENTER
latter
THE CENTER
besides.. doesn’t matter.
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES
need to train your own executives…
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
😂
THE CENTER
why you have 2?
2 executives? that’s like.. piddly squat
MIGHTY MOO INC
@Oil and Natural Gas Company DM me your guess! – heck everyone DM me their guess.
PLANKS R US
@The Center you’re on form…drinking vinegar for breakfast?
MIGHTY MOO INC
Closest to correct gets a cookie
THE CENTER
Should be running 4 executives.
3 COOs and 1 CTO
Or
4 COOs
And then have those staff slots being trained up.
WMS CORRUGATED
I say your buildings are all above lvl 5, except for recs and as factory. those are at 3
ANDREW CORP
Can I get a glass of milk with my cookie?
EVIATION AIRCRAFT
wait what are we guessing?
THE CENTER
Moos buildings and levels
I already guess yesterday. Mine was wrong.
MIGHTY MOO INC
@WMS Corrugated ^
THE CENTER
lmao
EVIATION AIRCRAFT
lol
MIGHTY MOO INC
@Andrew Corp if you are closest, yes.
WMS CORRUGATED
I said ABOVE, which is technically correct
PAGANI INDUSTRIES
I say, lvl 3 recs, level 7 power plant, lvl 7 refineries, level 5 AsF, lvl 8 oil rigs, lvl 6 factories
WMS CORRUGATED
so give me my damn cookie
METANOIA
@Mighty Moo Inc any reference point? like source cost of your fuse or something?
MIGHTY MOO INC
@WMS Corrugated well you said AS Fact was a 3
WMS CORRUGATED
ok shame on me
PAGANI INDUSTRIES
or tell us abundance of rigs
MIGHTY MOO INC
@Metanoia this all started when we were sharing profits yesterday – mine was $923,000
METANOIA
@Mighty Moo Inc hmm
HAHA
interesting
MIGHTY MOO INC
Hold on a couple min and I can send the whole story 🙂
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
so wait should I stop trying to find out @Mighty Moo Inc ‘s building levels?
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
@Mighty Moo Inc AS factory is with 6 or 7 or 8
My guess is 7 or 8
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Who wants to guess the levels of my buildings?
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES now you are talking
PAGANI INDUSTRIES
considering his map is mainly geared towards fuses I think it would be lvl 7-8
asf
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
Should have stopped long back..it is funny you went to sleep trying to figure out someone else’s building level
MIGHTY MOO INC
I’ve also updated a building since this all started. Bonus points if you guess which one 🙂
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc Oil Rig
METANOIA
@Mighty Moo Inc Refinery
THE CENTER
Should of ended years ago. Before you even were a glint in your father’s eye.
EVIATION AIRCRAFT
power plant @Mighty Moo Inc
MIGHTY MOO INC
no no no 😀
WMS CORRUGATED
warehouse!
MIGHTY MOO INC
YES
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc Factory
MIGHTY MOO INC
bahahaha
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
Figure out my rig levels
WMS CORRUGATED
pls stop
MIGHTY MOO INC
@Oil and Natural Gas Company 15s and 2 4s
OIL AND NATURAL GAS COMPANY
Lol
MIGHTY MOO INC
@Oil and Natural Gas Company 15s and 2 4s
I didn’t look at your admin or anything though 😀
PAGANI INDUSTRIES
Ok whoever can guess my building lvls gets 10 Q2 RE for 10k each or a Q3 sat for 50k
WMS CORRUGATED
find out my abundance of my new oil rig. oh wait, I’m going to tell y’all: it’s 100%
PLANKS R US
@Mighty Moo Inc I can get the answer to that easily from the order
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
Who can guess my building levels though?
It’s pretty easy really
THE CENTER
at least 2
PLANKS R US
@ASCEND INDUSTRIES Guessing mine is easiest. Let’s see if you can work that out??
Just ascend 😋
MIGHTY MOO INC
For those that are masochistic enough to want to know the whole story, past guesses, and other side jaunts it’s available here – simsupport.info/2020…
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
@Mighty Moo Inc I need to publish this as an article
Come on this would make such a good sim companies times artilce!
METANOIA
hahaha
MIGHTY MOO INC
LMAO I thought about it actually, not exactly this story, but some lessons to be learned from it.
METANOIA
what if.. Moo hoarded her inventory for a day and then sold more stock to bump up a 900k figure and throw us off
MIGHTY MOO INC
muahahaaha – I didn’t do that though. It was a little higher than average because of when contracts hit, but not that much more.
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
No I actually get the profit and sourcing cost now though. I understand why mine is so much higher.
MIGHTY MOO INC
YAY!
ASCEND INDUSTRIES
so technically through all of this I did at least gain my initial request: How Moo has such good sourcing cost
