i wud prefer to be in a 3 man fam with drafts than a tri alliance again

1 Man, Market, No attack First 3 days, 6 expo start, Allies, Naps.

As i wont have time to play with a fam, i vote 1 man fam now

FIXED market for more possibly different trategie

I have nothing against going 3 man fam, played some rounds that way and it's really fun, but it's not SS, so maybe forcing people to choose race between some pre-fixed custom races designed by mods, let's say 5 pre-fixed custom races, all of them to play SS, each player name his own race, but the race points and stuff are distributed in one of those 5 ways (mods should work hard to check ALL races are ok with the presets).

no drafting, otherwise we end up with 3-4 good fams full of activity and rest of galaxy suck.

no drafts and 1 man fams

I dont wanna rely on 2 more people

i like the idea of only using preset races, no custom races. 3man or 1 man i dont mind, 1 man is easier imo because you don't have to rely on anyone, but 3man can be more fun because you have people to talk to.

many possibilities:

-We stay the same but alliances must be told to mods that check that the 3 players are all allied together (no chain alliances).-All players have a supra SS race made for the round, no ally, no more than 3 nap that must be written in relation page.
-Market must stay closed (open market=possibility to cheat,  fixed market=noone will take income since it costs 100 pts to make cash and 0pts to produce resources and sell them).
-Unless it's no ally, pax must be forbiden i guess, they are too powerfull...i've been nuked 60 times this round, 18 succed,CFs were hit 1 time. Easy to recover. The pax put 3 OH on me and 8 reduce food prod and my income was negative in 5 ticks. If i had no saves i was dead for sure (no possibility to react with market, send fleet or jump wizz).
-The round should randomly end between week 4 and 6 (dunno if it's possible to make it in the game without any player(and mods) able to guess it, if not a rl event could decide when it ends...)
-what is good without family, it's that noone can screw ur round because he suddenly becomes inactive, but could be good to see a 2 members fam. 1 makes the cash the other spends it, like in a couple ) But i guess there would be too much temptation for account sitting.
---------------------------------------------------------------
My first choice would go to: 1 member fams, no ally, no more than 3 nap, no market, SA allowed from start, no attack first 7 days, round randomly ends between week 4 and 6, no morale, same size of map and number of systems.

It's hardcore, it's SS, it's SDSS!

Keep one man fam one more round with no ally

1 man fam, no allies

did we ever do a 2 man fam ? that would be fun 3 is attacker banker and resource orso but if you have 2 you cannot do attacker banker resource team and you also do not need to go ss. but 2 ss could also..

so i say 2 players fam and some start stuff and things like that best part is the 2man fam and im going to say it again 2mans fam would rock
