No I just don't like rule breakers and those whining about getting caught, or trying to justify those that are
We have enough problems trying to get ppl to play, and to get them to come back next round
And if someone kicks my ass in the game. So be it. It's the game, and shit happens
seriously your kicking 10 people maybe more out, 2 weeks left in PW, let us finish it out. and when PW starts back up people then will have to decided.
It seems to me with the time left it might be better to just let this play out and fix the problem next time around given how long PW has left to run. Blocking is maybe a bit extreme a sanction. Just my two pence.

Your worried as most of the people breaking this rule are in your family, so you and your mates are the ones going to loose out here, we could have just blocked all of you, but we have given you the chance to delete one of your empires, so please do so, otherwise we will block both.
There are loads of people who know about this bug, and only a few that are exploiting it, why should the people who have not exploited this bug be punished by letting you guys carry on?
Whats the difference between what you are doing and multis? nothing imho, multis gets blocked straight away, you've got an option to delete 1 of your empires.
It sucks, but we seperated the galaxies for a reason.
You are being offered a grace period. It is better than just us deleting whichever account is newest or blocking all accounts. Please take advantage of the offer.
And cjay, calm down bro.

I could write a big text on the pro's and con's regarding this situation, but here is my point of view:
The mods punish people who try to keep the game alive.
Why:
If someone is so enthousiast about the game and wants to play in two galaxies, let him play! The galaxies will grow, but also your positive word-of-mouth communication will grow.
By the way: growth is what IC needs. 170 players in MW is just silly... you need your players, don't punish them for playing!
No rules are rules, your saying a select few people are special.
And only way to correct this is to make 1 galaxy next round (After mw ends, let pw close and create a new one.) Only reason i percieved the 2 galaxies to be seperated were for the following reasons:
- People join pw because they don't want to be stuck to their pc all day, however it seems mw isnt all that active either and in reality pw and mw both have the same amount of activity given the player ratio. Thus joining the galaxies would create atleast 10 active and competitive families, and we could also bring fam size and number to 12/30.
- People joined mw just for drafting reasons, but as i said before drafting ruiins the game and gives newer players, or players that simply aren't that knowledgeable of the game a bad shot at the round, why have say 10 players that have the capability of leading stuck between like 3 fams? Woulda putting them in 10 fams each give those 10 fams better chances?
And really drafting i don't think is even that important annymore and really never was.
The time different in the galaxies are closing in together as mw used to be like 3.5 months long (main reason i never joined), now its 2 months and pw 1.5 months ...

^Agreed ... get rid of drafting... and if you only get one delete per round.
and screw pw2, pw32 for life! X(

I always played PW, but couldn't join 'cause it was filled up when I started playing again. Now I'm stuck in MW, because starting times differ, galaxies fill up and there are no other places to go. I btw hate MW. I prefer shorter rounds and more action.
I'd say open the two galaxies for all players. Give them the choice to play in one or two galaxies. Make the two galaxies differ enough, so the style of playing should be adapted to the galaxy.
AnderDeThaye their is no "style" of play anymore i mean common theres like 300 players total or something, and really a majority of us play the same its nothing new ... just join the galaxies
~ Cloud
That's true. The galaxies should differ more. Not only in duration, families and systems, but why not change the price of buildings, units,... for each galaxy?
This post should go to ideas instead of here, it has nothing to do with playing in two galaxies. But I think it is a good suggestion...
Thats a good idea and all, but as previously stated we only have like 300 players so the immediately solution is to join the galaxies, what your speaking of can be taking into consideration and implemented once the ranks grow.
~ Cloud
The ranks won't grow due to the current situation. The style of gaming should change to let new players stay.
Now they join, check it out, find two almost identical galaxies and a majority of experienced players, and than they leave to never come back.
Not really it goes like this.
1) they join pw, and 7/10 chances find that their family is inactive and doesn't speak. So they delete or majority just go inactive.
2) They join mw, land in a small fam that's getting its ass kicked same happens or they start at bor end up in a doomed fam, have fun for a week or 2 get completely raped without mercy and leave.
So since we can't fix that people are greedy and will farm people to the point of deletion or inactvitiy, we must add more families to combat that problem
~ Cloud
to get back on topic.
in defense to all the players who are in pw and mw now (i am not). If we used to have game mechanics preventing players from joining mw and pw its not understandable we dont have them now. It can allways happen you dont read an announcement. If the game prevents you from joining both galaxies things like this cant happen. This clearly is mods and devs fault.
So offering those players to delete one account.. giving them some time to sort out things with the fam that will be left basically is a fair offer to solve this problem.
The fact that both galaxies are about to end soonish and you come up with this offer just NOW after the biggest part of the round is allready done is somewhat lame again.
You will totally screw and punish the fams of those people who are in both galaxies more then you punish the players. None of those fam did have any benefit from those players playing in both galaxies. In devils case for example one fam will loose their main attacker or another fam will loose their main banker.
regarding the fact that EOR is very close you should just try to solve the issue by making it impossible to join 2 galaxies from game mechanics and let those guys finish their rounds.. just to not screw up 15 uninvolved peoples round by now trying to be srtict about a thing the mods/devs are responsible for themselves.
sorry for my english... i am drunk ...lol
Im more than sure these guys knew what they were doing .. and furthermore if not, im highly sure a family member told them. And if you don't read forums whose fault is that?
~ Cloud
yeah if you can suddenly join both galaxies if its not allowed.. and it used to be normal game mechanics prevent that case.. whose fault is that?
both sides made a mistake here and only one side is getting punished. Even more then that.. one side + X uninvolved players get punished.
Since we can not punish the mods and devs its unfair when the mods and devs punish us.
Exactly what Schniepel says.
Cloud, not everyone likes reading all the BS written here, some just join to play. All you need is your family, the community is irrelevant for gameplay.
Maybe announcements should be shown in HQ?
BTW: why isn't it allowed to play in two galaxies? (don't say "because the rules say so")
kingsnine ... i never understand your messages ... are you taking your meds?
