Appocomaster (1:1:3) Shuffle update - GOVERNMENT CHANGE. Sat, 23 Jun 18:04 Reply Report Delete
Good Evening.

Due to previously unconsidered government issues in relation to population, the following events will happen tomorrow mornng:

7:01 GMT: Tick 36 finishes, game closes.
7:10 GMT: Shuffle finishes, game reopens
You will now be placed in a galaxy with your buddy pack members. If you are not a member of a buddy pack, you will be placed randomly with a few others in a galaxy with 4-5 buddy packed players.
This is as planned.

Between 7:10 GMT and 00:00 GMT (Tick 52) you will be able to reset your government to nothing ONCE. You can then reselect it anytime between it being reset and tick 336 (assuming you created your planet at tick 0).

At tick 36, the feudualism bonuses will be adjusted as follows:
Production Cost: -15% (from -20%)
Production Time: +35% (from +15%)

This is to counter the fact that production times are based on spent resources, not the value of the ships, which makes a difference for feudualism as they automatically get a bonus for production time inherent in the fact they pay less for ships.

As there was confusion on the issue, we are clarifying it and adjusting it accordingly.

Sorry for any problems caused.

The PA Team

So basically they changed something from overpowered to normal.
Now people whine about this beeing unfair, they will quit and so forth.

1) The round does not end at tick 72.
2)You dont win pa during protection.

You whine about selecting (insert) and that people who pick demo are in an advantage. So, now everyone can go demo and change at shuffle.
How about them who did go demo at beginning, should they whine at people who now choose it and change/cancel at shuffle?

I think not.
Please behave as adult people, this is pa and they change thing willynilly when it fits them, thats nothing new or shocking.

Either play the game, or go away.

i really thing go away cos of they change thing middle of round and that ruind my plans very bad and yes those who set demo in start wins alot cos now they can change goverment too. and i had go unif tick 0 if they had done those changes before round start.

[LynchMob]

I'm in agreement AF

[Allfather]

HOW do they win alot?
We are in tick 22.....

[Mortal]

cos they have minig bonus and faster research tick 0 and now they can change theyr gov if they want. and cos now i and prob many else who was going to take feud dont want take it anymore cos its not so good what it was and becose of that i ahd take unif tick 0 and get more resources. but now i dont get those resources.

[Juffled]

its tick 22 mortal, they will get 50 ticks of a slightly larger research bonus which really isnt much, infact it works out as about 4% of the round or actually alot less as the first 150 ticks literally count for nothing

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Allfather again.
