This is an even worse fleet than the last one, but since I was the only one willing to spend BTC`s this one will probably win.

If all the ships & cluster reasearch other than the k-hun lis could be changed to 1 turn that would make it so much easier, that reasearch is so pointless. Then the bonus arties can be used for infrastructure. The 2k homeworld that is there currently is cool.

I bet that, more than anything, might entice the RT players to try out the slower pace servers.

But, shoot, I wouldn`t be terribly annoyed if, "For a limited time only", you got enough artifacts with an expiration date on them to get you to 50 points. Or even if you restart.
Ragnarok

Yea, and drastically decrease the turn requirements to get everything ship wise. Make it so that you`re up and running in less than a week even on slow.

I might be ok with more than 30 if we handed more points to industry and commercial. It takes FOREVER to be competitive, income wise, vs agriculture or tax....even when prices aren`t that favorable. But i doubt the admins have those types of levers at their disposal.

indeed. my suggestion would be level 30 infra of choice to start it is around then it goes to 750 turns a good start ish for TB servers without going crazy and annoying long term players who spent ages getting infra done.

I doubt people would suggest much higher than 30

setting up a new empire is the funnest part of the game...

So what we would need is an overhaul for new accounts, in order to use artist, they need to read the new players guide with an option to skip. Ensure that it explains levels/artist/etc. Take something we already have created and enhance it.

On that note, the article cache we do get is enough to jump start empires at least what would normally take a couple of weeks.
TiberiusGracchus

yes but for actual new players they dont know what best way to use those artifacts

you do already get an arti package to get you started which provide enough turns for ship research and some infra as well.

If that happened, I would be more likely to start playing those servers

Probably need to give new players a pile of levels of research so they don`t have to just waste 6 months researching before they can do anything. The ship and colony research is particularly pointless.

Gratz ToN.

And yes Omeg, I guess you have a point, at some point you need new blood from outside the game, and that new blood needs to stick around longer than 3 months. =/

Sadly, it`s one thing to identify a problem, it`s another to fix it.

I`d like to thank everyone who helped make this a success, even though there was very little to do.

You didn`t chain UW? How about EP and Sinarya? This was an opportunistic UW because i was bored and was starting to pile up an excessive amount of BTC.
AdmiralSarek

At least we didn`t chain UW, specifically to make sure we didn`t ruin the server.

yeah where does everyone keep getting 24 hours from?

You can also choose to cancel VM at any time but you will be thrown out of vm and will not generate turns for 12 hours.
omegian

It is 12 hours, not a huge deal either way. Problem with asking more people to join is it has been already tried by bringing over RT people. Some stay, some don`t. Most servers these days are mainly two sides with some people in the middle. I am unsure how you want to get more feds and players in when the player base has been tapped for the most part
Ragnarok

Actually its a 12 hour turn suspension, if the website text is to belived.

Instead of mocking UFP and me, maybe you should give the rest of the server a kick in the pants. Or better yet, get more people to actually play the server and eventually populate the ranks. Form feds. It shouldn`t be just your group and ours.
