Pinwheel will not be public for 2 days so the stay in family players can get back into their families.
Players who have clicked stay in family should have a pre-set family waiting for them. If not don't try to random in, come get help from a mod. We can see where you belong if you don't random in thinking you will land in your previous family.
You will not see Pinwheel on the Universe page at this time.
After 2 days Pinwheel will be made public and others may join. Both galaxies are free to play with your one account. Do NOT make a new account to join the other galaxy you are not in. You will be blocked for being a multi.

In game NAPs have been disabled and are not recommended.
Protection mode, Vacation mode, Player blocked or "being investigated", and the 35% family networth rule do not apply when attacking a planet in a hill system.
They apply everywhere else in the galaxy.

Your family only must control the KOTH planets marked in red in the center for over the tick.
ALL families are placed on the map in the circle of systems with an equal chance at the hill. Home systems are placed equally apart as possible.
Every single planet in a hill system has a massive bonus.
Morale bonuses and science bonuses are neither more likely nor less likely to appear on a planet in a hill system.


**IMPORTANT**
Remember deletes are not reset during registration or until the 3rd day of the round.
If you delete in Milky Way then your delete has been used even if you are in Pinwheel. So remember that if you plan to random around.

Good luck and have fun!

This is the announcement you have finally been waiting for. Changes will start being made when the galaxies end. The following are the changes to buildings. We hope this will make things better. Nolio had some excellent ideas and put some thought into this, we only tweaked it a bit. (Thank you Nolio) The galaxies could be down for a short time while we get everything done.

Mines- reduced to 12 weeks
RC- reduced to 14 weeks
Hydros- reduced to 10 weeks
RS- reduced to 12 weeks
Occults- reduced to 12 week
LQ- 8 weeks still the same but increase to 650
TOs- 16 same
CFs- 5 same

And now for Pinwheel.
Is it being scrapped? Nope! I think you all will enjoy this.
Pinwheel will now have the King of the Hill map.  In the center are some systems that are circled in red (thanks to Skyro). The first family to own & control all of these systems for over the tick will be declared the winner. The game will end the round automatically when this is accomplished. This upcoming round is a stay in family round. This shouldn't effect it at all.

However, Pinwheel & Milky Way will both be free to play in.
What does this mean? You will be able to play in both galaxies at the same time with your account.
What about the stay in round families, will they lose their spots with the possible influx from Milky Way? We put some thought into this. When Pinwheel is reset, it will be not public with a 7 day registration period. That means you can't see it from the Universe page to join it. However, Pinwheel players that have clicked the stay in family box will have the pre-set family link on their master account page. We will leave Pinwheel not public for 2 days and then make it public so others can join and you will have 5 days to get your plans in order for the new round.

And lastly, many, many thanks to Ps who has helped and worked hours on things for us. You are a tremendous asset to this game.

@ Primo and Nolio you both are in violation of the rules. You must put your regular nick in the first line of your sig tongue Mods also discussed the nick issue. Since it is not exact we will accept it.
