Re: To much of a gap!

If you are replying to me Agerus try reading my post again. I didn't say Reunion should definately break the NAP. I said that if they want to finish 1st then they should. I also said that if they are...

Re: To much of a gap!

Is it just me or is noone getting the point that reunion breaking the NAP with 1up does not automatically mean they will focus all their attacks on 1up. Lets have a look at the possible situations:

Re: Planetarion Discussion on steal ships

Well this would definately make xans stronger again. The only problem is that I think it will make xans overpowered. Caths would become hopelessly vulnerable to fi and defence vs fi fleets would...

Re: Most impressive and most dissapointing alliance so far o_O

Well IIRC you were one of the main protesters against the SiN/ND merge last round. I know you are going to say it is completely different because that was midround but I would guess that the...

Re: Cathaar Fleet Composition (R14)

Hmm one fairly vital thing that I think is missed here is that caths are extremely vulnerable to fi attacks. As there are going to be large numbers of xans this round keeping roids could prove...

Re: the NEW exeption system!

Hmm so even if someone points out a major, obvious flaw that most people agree on in an aspect (some would consider what they have said major flaws, and a lot of people agree with them) then it won't...

Re: the NEW exeption system!

Ok having read the entire thread (yes I did spend about 15 minutes reading the whole thing :o) the main 2 issues I have seen are scanning and rules regarding same galaxy interaction.

Re: Round 14 Galaxy System

I first played PA "properly" in round 4 and was lucky enough to land in one of those rare things, an active random galaxy. If I had landed in a gal that was inactive I don't think I would have come...

Re: Capture the Flag Scoring System

it would actually give ziks a disadvantage, as their flags would be worth more to other people, meaning more people tried to get their roid.

In my opinion the main problem with linking score to...

Re: Round 14 and Round 15 lengths

I voted for 8 weeks as I won't be able to play r14, or if I do will be very inactive and want to miss as little PA as possible. Also don't want it to run over x-mas, or if it does then at the very...

[Discuss] Combat System

During this round I have noticed that when you land an attack and have someone land on you the same tick the roid exchange is a little strange imo. I now know this has been going on for a few rounds...

Re: Score, XP, Value

I assume he just mis-read his own formula now as this situation would be covered by this part of the IF statement:



Which would mean the formula for that should actually be:

Re: Discussion about merging.

As you can see merges are specifically allowed by the rules in the manual. Merging alliances has been in the games for a few rounds and it is an actual feature of PATeam's controls.

Re: [Discuss]Bash limit Change

I think you (or possibly me) mis-understood what squishy meant. I assumed he meant that the bash limit only was dictated by score, and that the xp gain was still dependant on XP.

This would still...
