As its the last round, i think its nice that we've had a reminder why the game is dying and the fact that it deserves to die.

Not just one thing was wrong here but multiple mistakes:
1. Untested quests implemented into a Live game which people have payed for, after all previous quests that have been implemented have bugged out.
2. The time chosen for implementing the quests, was when the most fleets are flying.. Causing the most problems if something goes wrong.
3. The rewards for the quests are skewed in the wrong direction in the first place and PA Team didnt ask for community feedback before implementing them (or at least trying to). The #1 Sized planet gets to 5000 roids and his reward is 10mil resources to put him further into the lead? etc.
4. The game was brought back up after the downtime 3minutes before a tick (A tick where alot of people were landing).
5. Where was the advanced warning that you was going to take the game down? Did i miss it somewhere? or was this a spur of the moment 'ill ruin the game for everyone' decision?
6. During the downtime, there was little/no feedback and the information we recieved all contradicted itself. On the login screen, it said the game was down for a unknown time.. then in the next line it said it would be back up within the hour? then in the topic it said ETA Unknown.
7. When the game was brought back up with 3minutes to tick, PA team didnt even do a /notice in #planetarion or change the topic before the tick.

Its like the PA Team just dont care anymore, which doesnt give high-hopes for Galaxytarion.
