Re: free planets still running

Which begs the question will free planets and closed planets be removed from the rankings (for alliances too).

Re: free planets still running

This is something thats pissing me off too, here we have these freeloaders in a universe thats really not that challenging charging up the rankings and theres nothing we can do about them. The most annoying ones have to be in the alliance rankings, we seem to ahve anumber of cluster based alliances appearing in the free universe pushing alliances based in the paid universe down places when they are playing a much easier game than the rest of us

I do, I had my account upgraded (13 days after tickstart) to continue playing.
I would have rather stayed in the free universe really.

I don't mind, as long as they don't count in the final rankings.

Re: free planets still running

Made #1 in free universe which equalled top 300 overall
and 3rd biggest overall

then made the mistake of running to paid universe after some dodgy sent 3 planets at me

Worst is being thought of as farm just because you are good.
Without being gutless with either multi planets or alliance.

Re: free planets still running

Re: free planets still running

I can tell ya first hand that accounts in the free universe are still up and running. I log into mine every couple of weeks to build some ships and launch a random attack, and I'm still gathering resources.

I wouldn't worry about us "outsiders" impacting this game that much though - the mining constructions are limited early on so you can't efficiently mine asteroids, and on top of that, there aren't that many out here to steal.

I think you are all just jealous that we don't get attacked, don't have to send defenses, and get to sleep the night through

Re: free planets still running

just wondering but why are planets in the free universe being used to count towards alliance scores on the alliance ranking page
