Re: More proof that no good deed goes unpunished
The population has to hit zero, and possibly sit there for a turn. What's needed to do that may vary between turn-based and simultaneous mode, and perhaps between the time the method was mentioned some years ago, and the current patch.
But you really don't want to catch Atro's curse!

Re: More proof that no good deed goes unpunished
Her insurance company will fight you even if they are 100% in the wrong in an attempt to reduce your claim. They pay their people to reduce claims, not to pay up what they owe. They will say ANYTHING to you, no matter how outrageous and fight you every inch of the way. The only exception would be if you had been in the car and were threatening injuries...whole new ballgame. If the damage is significant, get an attourney. That usually fixes things right up if you are right, but the $$$ has to be worth the cost of the attourney.
I carry a throw-away camera in my glovebox for this kind of incident on the advice of a highway patrolman.

Re: More proof that no good deed goes unpunished
PS is there some sort of devastating insurance weapon in the STM Mod? Perhaps a Space monster or random event?

Re: More proof that no good deed goes unpunished
It seems like you have suffered one catastrophe after another as far back as I have been here. Have you thought about carrying around a rabbit’s foot for luck? It couldn’t hurt any.

Re: More proof that no good deed goes unpunished
Rabbit's feet can't be lucky. I mean, the rabbit had four of them and just look at him now.

Bad luck for the rabbit doesn’t mean bad luck for me!

Re: More proof that no good deed goes unpunished
Yeah, I wouldn't carry a rabbit's foot... I'd feel guilty and feel sorry for the rabbit every time I looked at it. How about a good luck four-leaf clover or a good luck coin?  |

Feel bad, heck I used to hunt and eat them when I was a kid! Never felt bad when my stomach was full.
