Um, I like the idea of the special asteroids,

but how do i capture one when all the owners currently don't seem to be bothered about expanding only moderating the game (fair enough).

Hence they are too small already to attack and we aren't even out of protection yet...

If you decide you need to divy out the asteroids to get them into play feel free to give the crystal one to me for bringing this to your attention

My intial plan being to take it by force.

noah02 · 22 Jul 2005, 15:24

They will initiate them eventually

plus they is admin staff so I wouldnt mind them donating a lil resource or 2 just to give them selves more roids so we can all steal them

But don't worry someone will be able to steel them and if you growing to fast then you dont need them

They bring unwanted incomings tbh.

wakey · 26 Jul 2005, 10:03

I agree with you here noah02. I also see no problem with 1:1 using admin tools to add roids and even some ships to their planet so they act very much like practice targets early on until they lose theor golden roid.

As long as they dont use these extra ships to defend others and dont build over the top numbers of ships it wont really damage the game and will give people a chance to practice attacking without the threat of thousands of alliance defence turning up and retals being launched

xontas · 27 Jul 2005, 09:34

damn, so i cant defend you wakey ;-)

bwtmc · 27 Jul 2005, 10:14

That's all very well until a Zik steals a free fleet from an afk, allianceless PA team member.

Game^ · 27 Jul 2005, 10:19

I believe its called being plain stupid.

Congratulations Xontas you have just undermined all those in the top10 by adminning yourself there.

Please tell what was so hard about initiating 100 roids and no ships?

Special asteroids are all well and good, but this IS NOT havoc, i dont expect to see admins mess around with in-game mechcanics in real rounds.

noah02 · 27 Jul 2005, 10:30

Yes Xontas i said initiating roids was fine but building ships wasnt the best of ideas :/
Now all them xans and cats who can get in there first are gonna get free xp and roids and such asap.
Initiating just roids like I said would have been pretty damn fine and we still could have waited a lil bit longer for them so we can create the wakey food chain.

jerome · 27 Jul 2005, 10:37

laughing out loud on the internet here folks.

MiX · 27 Jul 2005, 10:38

yes the xp bit makes it silly tbh

bwtmc · 27 Jul 2005, 10:38

Pretty gutting for any player who get's his highest rank tick 130 onwards. Nasty!

Flying Monkey · 27 Jul 2005, 10:39

I don't know if I'm allowed to paste unit scans here so I won't but hes only given himslef loads of anti co/de/fi which gives ziks an unfair advantage as he has no anti fr. Any ziks attacking will be able to steal a load of free ships.

Could have at least given anti ships that target all the races

ComradeRob · 27 Jul 2005, 10:42

If I were running the game, I would remove the bash limit on 1:1.

Holyboy · 27 Jul 2005, 10:45

the most stupid idea i've seen for a LONG time, someone is gona get a massive xp boost...

Chika · 27 Jul 2005, 10:45

this was quite stupid. Just when I though PA team couldn't go any lower.....
They crawl under my front porch.

derry · 27 Jul 2005, 10:47

no thinking as usual heh

Bashar · 27 Jul 2005, 10:49

In fairness, xontas has always been an utter twat who makes rash decisions without the use of any intelligent thought. Is anyone really that surprised?

The Real Arfy · 27 Jul 2005, 10:51

And it sure was nice of him to neglect 1:1:3, 1:1:5 and 1:1:7 - the problem still stands, since it was only fixed for his own planet.

jerome · 27 Jul 2005, 12:02

he probably wanted to appear like he could actually do good after being made to look like a muppet so many times in the past.

I dont know how many ship Xontas did actually add but the way I was thinking wasnt so they went overboard and would give a Zik a major new fleet if they attacked 1:1 but just enough to help bump their score slightly while making them not a completly lossless roid and so attacks would have to commit something other than pods. After all thats one of the problems you have with giving themselves roids to bump score so they can have their golden roids stolen as you turn the planet into a free roid farm for everyone to roids

Having now looked at his ranking it would seem hes gone over the top with the ships and rather than adding a few to throw buno in the road for anything thinking free roids hes made it so the planets basically just a roid farm for the big

Forest · 27 Jul 2005, 14:54

Erm, this is technically farming XP surely? Or tool abuse? Or bug abuse (allowing someone with such little thought, admin tools, has to be a bug on osmeones part).

bwtmc · 27 Jul 2005, 14:55

This is so stupid, it'll completely affect the t100 at this stage, giving away 300 roid planets at midday for nothing.

wakey · 27 Jul 2005, 15:29

In future rounds wouldnt it be better to maybe at tick 72 randomly assign the golden roids to between players whom had logged in during the last 24 hours or something. That way it would ensure the roids were at active players whom could be attacked and with it being random between these active players it would leave them at varying levels of the game

furball · 27 Jul 2005, 18:50

Stupid. Nothing more to say than that.

xontas · 27 Jul 2005, 21:36

thanks guys

i love you 2

basicly did what about 500 mails asked me to do
and i edited all the ex back for all the people that attacked me to the level they would have got without the admin action :-)

also the people that stole did have some loses aswell

so its a storm in a glass of water
(btw i made it kinda obvious to make it fun, if you dont get that you are WAY to serious to have any fun)

Jonas · 27 Jul 2005, 22:04
