We are allowing Illegal Alliances this round to see how it goes

Re: Supernova round 25

I wonder how an illegal alliance can be illegal when allowed...

Re: Supernova round 25

Well you have to be secretive about it and pretend it's illegal..

Re: Supernova round 25

And report suspicious situations!

I prefer to call them "unofficial alliances", but apparently that confuses people.  D'oh!

Re: Supernova round 25

Nothing illegal in this post. Just read on.
In that case. I am looking for 2 players to team-up. In-game me if you are interested (3758).

First possible form of IA spotted smile they (3) share multiple systems by the looks of it

Re: Supernova round 25

I see a lot of alliances. Based on what I see, this led to more attacking.

Also, I have the feeling new or non alliance players don't stand a chance any more. Alliances pick up expos like candy and can raid more than individuals.

Re: Supernova round 25

Who wants to take down the big guys.  We must destroy the "evil holiday greetings".  The holidays are over.

I've got forsty, santa, and Lacoste all attacking me at once.  I'm assuming that they've formed an IA, an unholy alliance that must be stopped at all cost.

Contact Lone Cat, or just start attacking.

lol.  You've misunderstood,

I'm not complaining.  You have every right to attack me.  I'm not interest in any nap, and that's why I haven't messaged you.

I'm only interested in fighting back, because this is a war game.  As a way to fight back, I'm attempting to recruit allies.

I'm not complaining, I'm just going to beat the f out of you.

Re: Supernova round 25

Ok2.
More fun then

Re: Supernova round 25

haha, Lone Cat, NEVER !

Why should i ever want to help such a cocky mouth like you, Lone Cat? Do u even have any friends in IC?  i really doubt that, cuz the way you play and talk everyround, makes me think u are really lonely....

Re: Supernova round 25

Ok guys interesting round for sure.
So looks like loan cats got rhe cat out of the bag.

The MAG allaince.

Sure u might or might not know who they are. But if you are playing then you've seen them.
Lacoate frosty rouge, C, Steak, big texas . Sanata clause... please mention if u know more wink

Sure you seen them like a pack of wolves or prihanana dismembering their opponents. 
And im sure your thinking the same. Glad that wasnt me. Lol but we all know they can be knocking down your door soon.

So like loan cats wanted. I suggest a band of misfits get together to make their life not so easy

Here is what can be done.
This is how they will opperate against you

C has.locked down naps with a lot of thr galaxy. If not he is smaller then most abd will be their key player in offensive moves.

This player will get in your core or near by. And wait.
Heres comes the big boys frosty lacoste santa and texas. Popping your ports runnibg your fleet. And tben the planets are passed to C. Either u have nap and cant take back or he is smal and u lose morale to retake.  Just ask DK.
Anyways this could happen to anyone of you guys next.

Here is what we can do if you choose to help or just sit back and wait until they get you next.

Little guys explore all into their cores.

Anyone know any infli of these guys post it in the forum. I can orgainze little guys yo steal their unportal traded planets and male them lose max morale or blow their own planets.
Or surround their massive core and we can try to core them.

Anytime anyone see these people ezplore post in the forum and I will mak sure they arr using their morale always.

Have yourself a great day

Re: Supernova round 25

I think an alliance of 7 people is stupid.  That's got to be half of the active players.  To be honest, I'm not even interested in playing such a stupid round.

There's no way for one person, or even 2 or 3 people to defend against 7.

I really have no idea why half the galaxy would join one group.  But I vote we just let that one group win.  Let them have their boring round.  At least 2 of them won't even get into top 5.

I vote we boycott this round.

I really like the idea of allowing ia's, but this is silly.

I also don't see how this can be fun for the mag7 group.

If someone can show me how we can reasonably take on such a large group, I'm in.  But I really don't feel like just banging my head against the wall.

Note.  I don't think ia's and naps are going to work together.  It might work better if we disabled naps for next round.

Re: Supernova round 25

Disabling naps is under consideration game-wide.  At the very least we should get rid of perm naps across the board.

Regarding boring rounds: one thing I'm noticing about SN this round (and the game in general, really) is how many planets there are compared to players.  Below is SN:

+--------------+--------------+
| planet_count | player_count |
+--------------+--------------+
|         6917 |           40 |
+--------------+--------------+

That's a ratio of ~172/1 planets/player.  We're about half way into the round and there's still a significant amount of exploration options available.  That doesn't feel right at all.

Re: Supernova round 25

For Starburst: Disabling naps will only make it so there are more unofficial naps, easier to break or disrespect in any way.
Instead I think there should be an option added in naps so you can get core agreements in there. So no "accidental" core violations will occur.

SN: Maybe now that "Allies" is broke, make a max of 1 or 2 nap(s) in Supernova, and allow napped families to work together.  That way there won't be these uber alliances, but you can still work together with other people.
