results updated, very close poll
Well, anything that doesn't result in me being the only active member of my fam would be fine.
I mean it's kinda weird when your personal rank is above your fam rank.
If I would lead the fam from the beginning on, I'd encourage everyone to play SS.
This way they can't brag about eachothers incompetence and then delete (as that is what all but 2 semi-inactives an me from my fam did).
I say: put everyone in a seperate 1-player fam.This way I don't have to deal all those deleters around me.
i would say lets try 1 round with 8 drafts and 8 ppol a fam 
just for fun.
if you want no drafts you can go to pinwheel..
Many good thought here. I believe the most important factor for me is generating new teams to see how player can build up their relation... I am not the most competitive player and i like to play with new buddies.
So i vote for no draft (3) or maybe a maximum of 2 (4).
Also shall we remove the 2 less licked option before the end to see what people would choose betwen the most licked 2 options?
13 players and 2 drafts seems to be the most consistent option atm.
18 players is too much and saying is"it will make the drafts less important in a family" is not real, as the drafts will set the roles and hold the bank and do everything they usually do, regardless of how many members there is in a fam (unless you want to create families within families, that is).
4 drafts in 13 member families is too heavy. They can instantly vote one of them as leader and consequently every random joiner will automatically "fit in or get lost". Granted that can also be done with 3 players (2 drafts and 1 random), but it is trickier and will lead to a higher level of intra-family debate and cooperation. You will have to do it if you want to do well.
Personally I'd go even lower as 10 player families and 2 drafts, though many of you may see it as a shock for now... The problem is IC has less and less players, and you cannot bottle them up in 20 families. If you keep reducing family numbers, people will never develop their skills and will only continue to quit as there is no purpose to play really, other than serving the drafts and chat.
If you want to foment competition, you need more families. How do you make more families with fewer players? Cut down on number of players per fam. How do you make them competitive? Cut down number of drafts per fam.
In a perfect world it would be so Aleph 
I've already told you what I thought of back in fam chat, I need not say any more
shud have had an option also of 18 members with no drafts.
but if we really want to level things out just a little then 13 with no drafts wud be best altho the fam that gets lucky and gets the best randomns will win anyway if they play active, but at least we get to meet and play with new people
Make it number two and i will take planets or help vets get planets(farm ftw) 
I think the 13 member with 2 drafts is best. I used to play with a group of people round after round. More so because they were my friends. People will still want to play with the option to bring a friend or two with them.
If you want all random there is PW i thought...
Then you need to review the way you all lead I'm sure I was dominant last round within my fam(i was leader after all lol), but that doesn't mean i dominated the galaxy on my own. If your randoms aren't participating enough then you need to encourage them to join in, find out why they're being like that - get to the root of the problem and fix it lol. You shouldn't just tell your randoms that as long as they send aid once a day, and do what they're told, that that's enough. That'll be the death of the game, again
------------------
You can't MAKE people log in and be active =p
The all randoming part Gondor is not meant to be done so people can just random, it is meant to increase competition. The only way that will happen is to reduce the # of drafts imo. Either 2 or 0 works imo
less fams with more players, 4 drafts but reshuffle each round (that ppl dont spend 1 round deleting each 7 days till they get the fam they want for the next round)
If you want to play no drafts, go to pinwheel. I mainly have vip to play with at least SOME good players, i have payed for this priviledge. Taking it away in the middle of a running vip account is simple theft. That said : option 1. Game is silly enuf as it is allready, dont go for more luck as the deciding factor for winning.
You did not pay for any privilege. You donated and in return recieved a gift =p
Facebook/myspace/hellokittyislandadventures are for friends.
Online Multiplayer strategy games are for playing a game =o
Yes "buy" is donation only... No Draft!!!!
Illegal drafting FTW!!!
Harder to illegal draft with ghost spots atleast and I think if it were to be no drafts or even 2 drafts, I think should be reshuffled each round
I like the idea of 10 player fams with 2 drafts.
Only issue with that is you aren't really fixing much of anything then. You go from talking about how much 5 affects 13 to now how much 3 affects 10. Really won't change much =p
It could if it could potentially create more fams. As in evertyhing it would have to be tested, but with less and less players you need to spread out, not concentrate
