Mods, I saw this ideas in the ideas forum and I think its pretty good.

Why dont we do 1 practice heat. No eliminations. Up to half the team can be switched. Gives people a chance to play with each other and get some ideas going and sort out inactives etc (a few fams started ICC last round just to have people get bored on day 3). Also, I know for a fact a lot of people will come out of retirement again so gives teh rusty's a little time to get back in touch. Finally, it gets everyone into the spirit of things.

We can change the actual amount of start resourses etc in the real round if people wanna start ICC with a different amount of resourses/expos etc. This should just get people excited.

And I really dont have a problem with removing nw limits. But as Jets said, it does encourage ONE good superactive attacker kicking ass left right and center (as we all know, one attacker with 2x the fleet owns 2 attackers with half each..) .instead off a bunch working together (some need to stay small to stay out of range of big attackers, its a valid strategy, while others need to stay small to stay in range of the people staying small in other fams ). Again, removing nw limits allows the elite to go at each other and since ICC should be full of the best players, with everyone starting even, I dont mind it.

Do j00 need a banker. I promise to be active the whole way through this time.

Pwetty please (can i contact you ingame? Im hiding from people on msn and Ill get IRC active once I have a fam )

Can I apply (banker... unless you need a fail attacker )

aww... someone post some war infils. Good luck to both sides. Respect both teams. Entertain me while I n00b around in PW

Maxa and missile were there I believe. And STB played with JSO (Echoes I think) and Planteers (the original ones) in the later rounds. And the STB fams have finished top 5, which is more than I can say for any other pw fams that moved to MW, Andro or Tri. Except if you consider Oblique (and me) as pinwheel players when we first started playing together in Andro (note, we had both played galaxies other than pw for 7-8 rounds before starting together). Just mostly in pinwheel before than and our fam members were also a lot of pinwheel players (kindof explaining why FfT is a mostly pinwheel based group )

And yes, I was the biggest banker outside STB that round. They dont show fam names in history anymore. And I dont remember what the fam name was. Playtronics or Beers may remember. They were with me.

Unless there are crap fams from other galaxies, it wont happen. BTW, my family beat STB in round 12 (by networth).

And the STBs since then are not fake. They became one of the few PW legacy fams which moved on to different galaxies. Kinda like the Munchers or TDC of pinwheel

I actually thought that myself for a while

Its the whole 'people read the first letter and last letter in a word and fill the rest in their head' theory.

But then I saw the avvy and gave half a thought to exactly what would make a killer breeze, read the name again, and found out it said beeze

ombash... Wouldnt that not work once you have over 100% ob? (which should be under 2 weeks into the round...)

And no, keeping con bonus that high is a waste of resourses.

@avagadro- anon would crack it a day and a half (at max) after it was made

Listos- I think we beat that Andro (not sure which round), when it was Oblique, w00t and Lethals fams allied. Owned bout 18k planets (almost half the total in the galaxy )
