Why would you not consider this to be reliable?

I was interested because I wanted to make sure a recent update didn't "break" the 247 feature.

But someone said it was fast for them, so sounds like it is working.

Hey I am a logical person and I say until it is proven to me (Not saying the other person was lying) then I don't believe it... lol.

Besides, it would give us something new to test. Can you imagine the boards blowing up if we find 247% is just as fast as 118%?

It would be bigger than Watergate and Spygate combined... lol

You know... you have a good point. Our RL government lies to us all the time so why would EAL life be any different? lol.

Just kidding. I am sure there is a speed increase but I guess the question is, is it really 2x faster.

I remember a similiar controversy in beta days (or was it right after the game went live?) when max speed was 99% and was raised to 118%. Lots of people tried to say then that even though the speed was almost 20 percentage points higher that it really didn't make much difference in the speed. I don't remember if anybody ever did a formal experiment to challenge it, but eventually those kinds of rumors died back down. All that to say that people have been trying to catch EA/Maxis in 'lies' ever since the game started. LOL
