Re: ~~Pinwheel 72 pVc!~~

1st, 3rd and 4th place at time of writing are SS, thats orion, me and xeno ... i said at start of round a fam with all SS could win but no one dared try it!

the current fam bank system is flawed for growth - up to day 3 its fine but then it gets so inefficient unless the fam is being run really tight. i understand its better to have small dedicated attackers for longer rounds, but for a 4 week round or whatever this one was, i think SS really is viable as you can just defend a core and infra whore to the win. lets face it no fam has ever won a round without infra whoring anyway.

Re: ~~Pinwheel 72 pVc!~~

Agreed. The biggest advantage is being to build every single tick. On top of that, there is only little planning, so not alot can go wrong really. As for a whole fam being SS.. winning will be hard since you need some attackers hmm Also I have the most fun playing together with other players, if I have the time to coordinate anyways tongue

Re: ~~Pinwheel 72 pVc!~~

although the true definition of SS is Self Sufficient, you get your own planets you make your own stuff,

how many of these "ss" players can say they have received 0 aid and 0 help from other fam members?

So, players cannot excel unless they have a setup that allows for super eco's and massive fleets?

Arby: A very strict mod, reminds me of a fat redneck who drives a truck around all day with a beer in one hand. I hated this guy at the start, however, I played a round in PW with him where he went as an anonymous player. Our fam got smashed up and everyone pretty much left. Arby stayed around and helped out the remaining family. At the end of the round he revealed himself.... My views on him have changed since. Your a good guy.....

Re: ~~Pinwheel 72 pVc!~~

Isn't this normally how every pw ends up ? 2-3 fams with a huge gap in nw and then 3-4 families with 2-4 people active trying to carry a family and the the bottom families which have pretty much given up and went to the bar for the rest of the round.

but people being inactive has always been a bane for IC but with less of a player pool I'm not really shocked. Will be interesting to see what happens after the change in each galaxy to see which one gets the bulk of the active players and which one becomes place holders for multi and inactive accounts.

Re: ~~Pinwheel 72 pVc!~~

I agree with what Dbudd said, and killas pw has seemed to become more inactive since the allowance of playing multiple galaxies. Maybe with the new changes it will bring back some of the old players and things will improve. I myself cannot see such happening as many i doubt will play again or atleast not active to the extent as they once were, i do believe new players will arrival and will begin to shape the new pw.
