Yay, my name immortalised in the Uni News Topic Starters!

True...just tested it. You definitely have to be logged into a playing empire to use it.

Mibbit still works though

Checkin in!

That's probably a good one to bring into the game.

Making yama's is cumbersome - and is kinda the only feature VIPs get for, besides the drafting.

Imagine you could get a whole family's system list, with just a couple clicks

Hard to track, I think.  Like, just cos you registered there, doesn't mean you've played for that long?

Maybe it'd be cool to award tag points for rounds completed or something.  Not sure if fully possible, but that could be cool.

Then you're starting to branch out into tag points as rewards for ingame achievements, as opposed to just forum posts.  E.g. Best Banker = 5 tag points, or Most Captures = 10 tag points, etc.

Hey Middle

Propose adding a Manual system, whereby active players are rewarded by choosing to play in both galaxies.

Currently the problem with allowing everyone to play in both gals, is that it they can go inactive and not care in another gal.  However, some IC players are active and eager enough to play in both gals. 

IC should use this to strengthen the number of actively and involved players.  For some players, it's very easy to actively attack in one gal, and then bank in another.  Or bank in 2 gals.  Or in some exceptional cases, attack in both! (Yea those last category need a life if they want to do that properly ).

Proposal
----------
Perhaps in the beginning, to see who is allowed for double empires, they could nominate themselves, then at the end of the round, people could vote for like 10-15 people who are the most active/involved.

Then at the end of the round of their 2nd empire, their fam could do a vote to see if they were active and involved enough.  If they were, they keep the 2nd empire.  If not, they lose the right to do it again.

Yes, it's a hell of a lot of work - not something that can be done auto I think (e.g. logging time logged in and stuff).  It's more to do with interaction and involvement with a family.  Perhaps mods could delegate this role to a community member, "Master of Dual Empires" who conducts the voting and what not or the assignment.  Has to be fair ofcourse.

Dunno, the system is just something I thought of, and I'm sure you all with have much better ideas.  But the point is to reward those who are actively playing, to play in both gals.

It's just an idea, anyway.

---------------------------

Another idea is to allow VIP members to be in both gals, but I'm not in favour of increasing VIP benefits at the moment.  Mod team and Developers get no benefit from increasing VIP sales at the moment, so it's kinda pointless.

Would rather just reward the player base for activity/involvement.

I still don't even know if it's original, or just copy-pasted.

Doesn't matter either way tbh.

zomg roles are out!

Pretty sure I had changed this already.

Alongside that was a Calculator for the cost of the Units you wanted to build (similar to what Elro has just implemented for buildings).

File probably still exists on your server - just was never livened.

So, I am sure you guys don't remember that this idea existed somewhat!

But, I'm glad that it has been implemented in some shape or form

Good stuff!
