this has been going on for over half a year now.
If a fed actually only has 3 active people, or 2, or just 1...THEN TEAM UP INSTEAD OF SPREADING!!! then you might get stronger as a group and be active aswell, what are the leaders good for anywayz if they don`t want to make a fed stronger!!!

and yea it happened to BoC/BK aswell, all the wats against them, and yes to Matrix, PG, IG, and others aswell, BUT THEY WERE TOPFEDS AT THAT TIME, or coming close to it!!!, not just 1 fed at the 4th place.

BLOODYweak Leadership has made ultra dull!!!
DO something!!!!
you are all great leaders at getting powerfull, but how many new players have you thought lately?? given attention to to help him get stronger, keeping your own new and low powered fedmembers active by talking to them??? well...what I hear is that there are enough feds where it`s only about the high-pr-players...with leaders who lost track of the little people...(so not ALL leaders are bad, just some...)

please explain me why the massive war against TPO is 1 of the most Xciting things happening on ultra next to the endless UW-preparations atm?????

'AND, who cares about your fed? Whats the point of just playing to keep fed alive? '

Athe moment at least 6 other feds care about my fed, otherwise they wouldn't stay on war with us, and on top of that I DON'T play to keep the fed alive, I play to have fun WITH my fed, I mean...half the members became friends of eachother, and the other half is having fun on the discussionboard or doing their things.

Yes I can make almost a bil a day IF I spend all my turns on research, but at the moment I'm too busy digging for the competition trhat is going on at this moment...

exploreUW's in multiple numbers would work, but can you get enough people for that?? and what about the 'big bangs' that some people wanted tpo go out with?? till when do we have to wait before they finally keep their words??? the people who don't have it shouldn't do it...the people ontop who are bored should do it...power up like delloche and start blasting around...firsty 24 hours nobody does dung anywayz if you're high enough...

And, if we get an explore-UW guy every 2-3 days people with historias will soon get short. If we all take some responisibility to make some fun we will get some fun. It is too easy waiting for the big-guys making our fun as they dont want :)

AND, who cares about your fed? Whats the point of just playing to keep fed alive? Join me in some fighting now, and lets kick all those miners and terrans down all the time avoiding them getting borders. I promise you, we will get a cluster within a week if we just hits everyone out of DP all the time and wins more planets than we looses. Who cares about a loss or 10 if they just never is able to get above us and counter us? More active virals and maruders is needed.

eclips, so you got 3-4 times as much cash/minerals than TC when he did the UW before Donster....! 7 billions is more than enough to do exploring for 48 hours. Dig and get yourself some nice shields and I am sure you will make it. I will not use single artifact on you and I guess lots of players will support you rather than stop you. It isnt that hard if you just are able to stay awake and build/explore every now and then.

I guess we got similar planet-land now, so we are earning 2-3 mill. a turn right? So if we do some low fighting we can eacn a billion a day without lots of trouble right? You need between 2 and 3 billions to do a successful explore-UW - and some artis.

smiley, if you want to know that bad, oke then here it comes.

I have just 7 bil at the moment, not 'that' many arti's, and I spend most minerals fighting... I am not in the possition of doing a UW, nor will I be in the future cause I spend to much on fighting and on others.
Nontheless I do my part in this game by keeping my fed active with competitions (I dig myself for the prizes), and kicking people down (till recently).

True I could have a few more bill, but I don't use 4 or 5 strafezstacks like some...and it would even be impossible for me to THINK about making money over 50 mil pr, but hey...guess only the coolones use strafez to the msx right??

Well, most players on the server could do a larger effort to make some fun, but it is easier to give all others the responsibility. Eclips, I am sure you could get the resources to be at top3 within a month if you really wanted - and you could try a real UW yourself that could be successful. BUT, it is so much easier asking others to try? The problem with UWs are that you reset your account (and gets nothing for it), and thats not fun if you have done it a few times.

Of the last 6 UWs on Ultra (and belive it or not, I am among those) few have been from high PR. The ability to stay awake and avoid historias is as important as high resources and power. Yes, it is too much artis on the server, but it is also too much capsules around.

I could attack DK and all top10 (except of Deiloche) if I really wanted to, and I havent got planets/resources for months. All it demands is that people are willing to sacrifice some of their cash/minerals/time. The problem with the server is that we are all bored - bored - bored. We need some real updates!

So, lets reset the server! Maybe we could remove the market and let everyone produce their own minerals/food/GC/ore instead of buying it? Then planetcount and landmass would be important again. 100 times more upkeep on all ships/races would also make it more interesting (distance between top and botton would be minimized). I think all chances is better than no changes.

Yes, I think it is something wrong with the game when a miner with 15 planets can earn 30+ millions pr. turn. I think it is even more wrong when half the server can change this, but they dont want to. If the top20 bought food instead of selling it Deiloche would get problems staying up there....it isnt harder than that. It demands usage of some percents of the server-cash, but thats all.

delloche, if you want to brag about your empire, then start your own topic.

Yes you are at high pr, yes you have helpers for food, arti's, cash, you name it, but till now I haven't seen you do anything yet...hurry up with that UW will ya?? the server needs it.
And who knows it might even wake up DK aswell to go out with a bang like it is rumored around for the last 1,5 years...

Hrmmm... I think I might have more PR than the rest of the server combined. :D

StormofBladeZ, "sleeping" is synonymous for "dead".

*Grins* I take that as a compliment, eclips. You`re right. I`m an a.miner who hasn`t had a triple digit planet count on ultra, ever. Of course, it is irrelevant that on both normal and slow there were points in time when I dominated my enemies, nor the fact that I was strong with my first terran empire (300+ planets) on fast, because that isn`t ultra.

On ultra, I spent great time and patience forging my own planets and set myself up so that I never HAD to fight. You said that you wanted the three biggest empires on the server to go off in rapid succession... but you failed to define biggest. If you mean planet count, fine... you`re right, I`m far from the biggest. But if you mean influence? *grins* If I had any desire to play ultra seriously, I`d have fun joining the ranks of people swatting you like flies from 200% just because. Truthfully, though... why should I bother fighting for planets when the server can barely support my presence as it is? ;) I don`t want to demand too much of your small capabilities, after all. ;)

well...they could have known that before they started buying players for paid account (if they would switch to marauder or have a high planetcount)...Unfortunately they didn`t really knew the players well enough who they asked...as most of them are bored ancient vets who just come out to play every so often for a day or 2...

Donster, your plan would be awesome for this game I think, just filter them out...that shouldn`t be that hard for some right??

lol at eclips` last observation. anyway, most of the VM`ers are just board with the game, not hiding. sure they log in every day and probably pick up an STC as well, but that takes all of 2 minutes... I certainly do support removing them from the stats though - filter them out of all the ranking pages and don`t count there planets on the fed pages - that would yield a more accurate picture of the "real" top players/feds on the servers.

30/04/2007 · 02:37 AM #23

yea, an explorer who hasn't had a triplefigureplanetcount on ultra as far as I can remember...big in cash and stuff, but no planets...good for UW's though, but not for credit

*Notes that one COULD consider his account one of the three biggest... after all, it DOES have the biggest income on the server...* ;)
