Is there any other way to increase stats other than paying for it? There's the Free Turns link. You can get some free turns out of that, but apart from paying I don't think there's any other way.  Not sure. |

I started playing when FatherShark told us about it but it gets reset each month so don't worry as soon everyone will be back to square zero. I've given most of my money to the gang this round and I've only got one Private Doctor and one Penthouse. It'd probably help me to have more. and I think you can earn money from your followers when you're offline too. I think. Also: I find I make a lot of money as a pimp with high pimp stats and lots of escorts it pays well. If you're a dealer than watch the drug market and be careful of when you sell your drugs. If you're a thug I guess you want to make money out of attacks. |

Since there is so many of us in the gang we should all attack certain gangs and individuals at once ...

I've got a shit list going with the guys in AvA (AvA, AvA2, AvA3 etc) they have alliances with eachother and other gangs but I can still own them. BlueAngel attacked me one day and beat me bad so I had it in for him especially and the whole gang so I always target them first. If you want, do what I did and made 3 logins (you can have 25 on one email address). I have one guy as a pimp, one a thug, one a dealer. And it's good to always have a bit of thug power and some thug followers otherwise people just rob you to hell. I reckon just play it once a day or maybe once every 12 hours. I left it a day and had about 10 million bucks in my personal account which lets you upgrade big time. This is my general strategy: - log in, check attacks in & number of turns. make note of anyone that has owned you since you last logged in, if they got a gang make note of the gang - goto Character page and upgrade my stats using my turns. Save just over 200 turns for 12 attacks. You might also wanna check your War Room for you follower stats, in case you need some turns to buy some more of them. - Goto the drug market and sell any drugs you have, withdraw all the money from your bank - Go to the character page and upgrade yourself (M16s, Humvee, Personal Doctors, Penthouses etc) Use as much money as you want/need - Go to the drug market page and click "Donate All" to give all your remaining cash to the gang. This is good because it should lower your ranking. It means you've just powered yourself up nicely, and now you've dropped your ranking by getting rid of all your cash and drugs. - Search for any people you have a shitlist with, other wise just hit "Targets in Range" and look for people with good money/drugs values and with thugs/hoes/dealers you can handle fighting against. You should also note that your ranking goes on how many Original Gangster's you manage to kill, so they should have *some* followers for you to kill. It doesn't matter if they kill yours, they're just no name followers that serve you  - When you house raid someone, make sure it says "Success! Your plan worked" or something in there. Some times it says "Your plan failed" and you get owned. If you do that 2 or 3 times it drops your followers and stats big time. Oh i forgot, before you logout, sell all drugs and donate all money to the gang. Come back tomorrow and repeat. |

i used to have a shit list thingy aswell but after awhile there were too many people so now unless there is one person/gang who is continually after me i don't worry about revenge too much. Instead i focus on greed and random violence  i found the best thing to do is that when you are ready to start attacking people make sure you withdraw all the money in your bank account as this increases your overall rating in the game. So when you goto to Targets in range you will be in a higher position and hence have better targets to aim at because there are always a couple of ass-hats who hold on to crap loads of cash and have no defences, just make sure that their gangs are weak. last time i did this i was able to get about 3-4 million cash from one guy and lost only a couple of followers. Then as Nathan said make sure you use up your cash for upgrades or donate it. |

next month, we need to have the gang operation immediately - which affords us all protection. People like me who have multiple characters need to diversify what specialities they are plying. We've done pretty well this month as a gang, and can do even better next time around.

Yeah we rank about 74th in Australia at the moment. So what are the plans for next round? Do we all be thugs or have 3 logins each and each be one of each type of character? I found that if you are a pimp or dealer, once your overall rating for that type hits 1000 and you have a few upgrades, you should focus on your thugness from then on. DoobieBoy (my dealer) gets almost as many followers (if not more) than Catphish (my thug) and the type rating differences are immense between them. Catphish is a far better thug in the ratings but the followers are about the same. I think the upgrades have a bit to do with how many people follow you. You know what would be cool, if the servr tallied how many people die each round. It would be huge. Far more than 6 billion i bet |

if you click on Top 100 Thugs then it shows you how many followers have been killed by the top thugs, last i checked one dude had killed like 800,000. I've only got to 15,000 but in the last few days of the month i'll try and take out a few people.

I refuse to pay for music or pornography on the internet, so there is not much chance of me paying for this.

Does that mean we can't play anymore, or can we just sign up again next month?
If the gang will become inactive too, someone will have to sign it up again straight away and let everyone know which one it is.
