Looks like when the devs added the core feature to Starburst the time to create cores in Supernova got changed as well (the features are attached to an extent).
The Supernova cores should function in the same way that they always have, the only difference being that it takes 3 days to create them instead of 7. If there are any anomalies please let us know 
Investigating
It's possible that Stefan switched it off (again the problem with the round is that this function is not visible in the interface). We're looking at fixes for this round, I believe what's going to happen is that we're going to reset it with the same teams and give a long start up period for people to submit transfers. Just trying to make sure there isn't going to be another issue like this before we get anything going.
1-2% of your nw will give you a solid chance of success
morale was allrdy an issue cuz of colo being 20 size. and their small attacker less then 100k nw.
15% more or less nw of the total fam is neglectable in such case. (colo had 1/4 of their fams nw on himself all fleet/rc yet still costed me 20 morale per retake simply cuz i had 6 times his planet ammount amd same nw)and ofcourse people cannot give anny usefull imformation then 'this morale system sucks', since we cant see the frikkin morale formula.
You could explain why it sucks! What would you like to see happen differently?
15% total fam nw loss is never...neglectable... as the family nw is weighted more heavily than individual player values.
This solution was an attempt to fix the complaints by players that big families had too much of an advantage and would just farm small families to hell.... in fact... Complaints against Colo were the last straw in deciding that a change needed to be made (a few rounds ago he lead the most ridiculous example of n00b farming I can remember)
Example:
18 completely obliterated 23's pop banker, which resulted in about a 15% nw drop for the family. This put 18 at a nice income advantage, but also increases the morale it takes them to attack.
I like that actions have consequences outside of "haha, I knocked him down to 5% of his pop"
What interests me is that many many active players keep saying this morale overhaul is S H I T and mods don't do anything about it ...
because "it's shit" doesn't provide much to work off of? (mostly this)
because personally I disagree and am yet to hear an opinion that isn't based off of lack of adaptation?
because part of the point was to put big families at a disadvantage?
Diplomacy +1, just sayin.

There's some kind of hiccup with resetting now where everything on our end shows that history is being saved, and then when we finish it's not saved. We have a workaround now, but I'm not sure if recovering lost history is possible.
Than why does it give us the option to delete... sorry ive been away from the game for awhile
I believe that's because it was really easy to disable deletes, and we didn't want to manually remove the feature completely in case there's a situation in the future when we want to enable it again.
Hi!
Stefan is looking into what is going on. From the mod interface we're unable to see anything at all suspicious that would be causing this (the logs are treating players being removed in this fashion exactly like they treat players that are killed off legitimately). Big guy has been looking through the back end to figure out what might be happening. We've discussed a reset, but imo I don't see a point in resetting it until we are able to figure out what is going on. No sense starting over if there's a chance it's going to keep happening.
Apologies for not seeing this post sooner. We know it's happening and it's being looked into, unfortunately it's out of the moderators hands at this point.
Undeath, you really need to work on your communication skills....
@Bobthereturn - what Undeath was trying to say is : - unfortunately some leaders take this game too seriously and if you even try to do anything other then what you are told to do, you are killed off. It sounds to me like you were in a poor family. Of course this is a team playing galaxy, however it is a leaders responsibility to promote effective team play.
So this was not your fault, and please believe me when there are some excellent leaders & players out there, so you can try to work out the problem with this leader, or request him to remove you after 48 hrs and try to re-random into another family.
Hope this helps and good luck!
Thanks Orbit! Trying to throw out quick responses from work so players can get some kind of answer in a timely fashion doesn't tend to translate well
Colo, y u jump so much fleet!? X(
He can't blow his massive fleet on a laser trap if he doesn't have a massive fleet to begin with!
Apparently your leader/family thought more communication was needed?
lol.
Thx undeath for the reaction.
Man, that red is loud as hell. Was just trying to make it easy to see where I responded X(
If you're playing in Starburst, you're playing a team game. If you don't wish to communicate with a team we have Supernova available for solo play.
We're not able to view activity on the account that was removed 
I'd recommend communicating with your family more. I'm not able to see any private messages that were originally sent or received, but since your forum account is separate I can see that you didn't post in your family forum a single time before you were deleted.
In my case at least, the last time I donated.
- There were no VIP status under my name like there was years back
This was removed when the forum had to be moved for security purposes (the old forum was customized for IC). It hasn't been added because people with the VIP tag in the forums used to complain that they were getting spammed with requests from non-VIP players to draft into their family or be drafted.
- I didn't get the extra draft / invite a friend spots
You got a draft spot and a friend code
- I couldn't use my own free draft spot as drafting is now limited
Drafting has always been limitedMaybe its been fixed, my knowledge of this is going back a few years.
However from what I remember if you are VIP then you should get:
1 Free Personal Draft Spot (You the VIP can draft into any family with a free spot)
4 Free Draft / Invite a Friend slots so you can draft up to 4 friends into the same family
This is incorrect, you always got a single friend code with each VIP. If someone had 4 friend codes it was because they purchased 4 separate VIPsThat is basically 5 drafts stops
+ 1 draft spot a family is allowed anyway for a total of 6?
+ The people who random lucky and you could basically have the exact same team every round.
A tiny minority of players liked that you could have the exact same team every round. We do our best to cater to the majorityBut like stated maybe I'm wrong as last time I donated was a few years back, but no it didn't work then.
We're always game to take another look at VIPs, but your memories are inaccurate 
Hi you contacted a mod!
I spoke with your leader, he said you were killed off because you didn't log on for 2-3 days.
Why did last round of SB come in Imperial history but SuperNova didnt?
Somebody won't stop feeding the Mogwai Stefan uses to run the server after midnight.
Wtf, don't laugh! X(
I thought you were being funny!
Rawr. Gonna win best attacker!
lol
Not sure how valid it really is to compare LoL to IC. LoL is an interactive multiplayer game where you play as a coloforful variety of characters with either a random team or a group of friends for 30-60 minutes, and then move on to the next game vs. a new group. IC is a text based game where it takes 5 hours of sitting around for the building that produces more cash to come around and you're stuck with the same group of people for 2 months.
IMO IC is set up brilliantly to be a solid mobile based game, but our fearless leader has no desire to make this conversion.
Not trying to bash on your post at all, guess I'm trying to get a grasp of what conversation you're wanting to start.
If joining is still possible. I am interested to join random.
If someone has someone decide not to show up, you'll be first on the list. ATM we have an even number.
