Well i`ve had an idea for an event on rt now for a while, Hopefully something to break up the stagnation. If there`s enough support for the event then this is what would happen.
First off people would sign up, then they would be possibly randomly assigned to staff made feds by me (2-3 feds)
then for a solid month they would fight for the ranks any for wins, posting their wins in the forums with how many colonies they won or a defensive wins or what have, then after that month long period the fed with the most colonies won from members of the other fed(s) would get prizes, and there would also be participation prizes awarded to the losers and those from either side with the most colonies won or biggest capture or what have you....when enough people show interest I will put more work into the prizes and how you can qualify for them, but right now i`m thinking of letting winners choose from a selection of prizes including clusters, artifacts, loyalty, perhaps some more special like a one time only colony revival, or Mineral/credit prizes.
The reason for this event is to inspire people to fight again, mix up the power blocks and pit friend against friends for a while and have people team up with people they never considered teaming up with.
I will try to spread active people, and unexplorable people out among the feds that one it doesn`t come up randomly one sided with say all guards in one fed, or one fed of people who average 8 hours a day versus people who average 2 hours online a day.
It should also give newer players a chance to learn from the more experienced or vice versa.
I think it would be best to set a power rating cap for all groups say 100 mil -150 mil pr to keep people from running from the fun. maybe make it so there`s no fed war, I could even fill up the top 5 to prevent top 5 bonus if that`s what people want. All the particulars and rules of engagement could be decided on and talked over.
Though should anyone leave their fed, during the event they would be disqualified and forfeit any prizes they may have won, also no one would be allowed to join after feds are set. And people must join the fed they are assigned too.
I should also hope people would take this as a nice friendly event and not do underhanded tactics like giving wins to people in another fed, or giving borders or what have you.
This is after all a game, if you can`t hit your friends and steal all their goodies, then shake hands and laugh later on then they`re hardly friends then huh.
Well post your comments and concerns to below and if there`s enough support I will figure out the rest of the particulars, Tell your friends to read and comment.
Also forgot to mention, fed leaders can join in while your away your fed will be kept alive by an NPC one that only i know the PW too so you don`t have to worry about your fed dying or going to someone you don`t trust.

Yes the Dm could be used for this purpose, but that means everyone having to make accounts, me and BW having to set missions, having to fix the market yet again, and though the DM server seems to be working alright as of now, problems could arise down the road. it be a bit more simple and more fun to do it with established accounts on an established server.
And Walrein part of the fun of the event is being forced to ally yourself with people you wouldn`t normal consider. if only for a short while then you can go back to your happy stagnant feds. It`s the fun of putting your clusters on the line so that you can see what your made of when it comes to your current allies, and seeing how well you can do.
but you don`t have to participate if you don`t want to

I think we actually did do something like this in the past, but it was race vs race as opposed to fed vs fed, it was tons of fun.

i think if the smaller fed empires decide to group together to form a 3rd bigger fed apart from mk and rabies ...any 2 of them would be a formidable attack to future uws holders

doesn`t sound so interesting to be honest ... i think people should group up instead so we have like MK, RABIES and TheRestOfTheWorld and then we have a three sided battle ?
wishes for E Class though to be honest again (:
my 2 cent opinion

That is a good point about the planet count... The DM server idea would give us all a fair chance and not handicap the empires that have base prs over 1mil or have no border slots left....
well scared of loosing all your planets A4M we all understand you not wanting to take part in a fun sounding event hehe and as always here willing to help how ever you need EE
I like the premise of mixxing things up but could we do a trial run on DM to see how it works out before we implement it on a real server?
This seems like the whole reason we are waiting on the DM server.... There are reasons why people are in the feds they are in on the servers they are on
well the entire winning fed would get reward of sort, though there would be separate rewards despite being in the winning fed or losing fed, we could also base the rewards earned by the winning fed dependent upon the points they earned for their fed, like 50 points gets you something in this prize range, 100 in this one, 150 in this one or what have you.
loyalty would be specifically for guardians though if some tax miner wanted a bit of a boost w/e... it wouldn`t be outrageous and i`d probably put a cap saying something like 1k loyalty to a max of 4k total...

O.O this sounds cool.
So when you say prizes like loyalty and all that for this event does that only include the Winners and excluding guardian? I like this idea but I feel like only the explorables would be the only ones fighting.
