Re: Fort Gals

When it comes to latestarting i can tell you what apprime did this round. We did not recruit "top" people that was going to farm the universe for fame. We let everyone who was already in the alliance and couldnt play from tickstart to latesignup into one of the 4 gals we had, and in addition those who were unlucky with their random gals could reset their account.
Its a myth that you try getting into a fortress gal no matter what and reset your account tick 300. We only had 1 planet resetting to take a spot, a planet which was in a horrible galaxy and couldnt exile anywhere half-decent. People in ok gals, like top30 stayed. Obviously most apprimes members were inside those 4 gals but we still had 10+ planets outside.

Latestarting is allowing people the chance to play the last 5 weeks with friends instead of getting pissed on and quit the round. It also allows those who cant play the first weeks a chance to latesignup. Removing it will make a lot of players just wait until the next round start instead of actually keeping them in the game. Keeping the gameplay and playerbase consistent is extremely important to keep this game running.
