After tick player placement
We have been discussing galaxy setup. Another thing that did not go well this round was the placement of planets after tickstart. For instance exiled players, self-exilers and new players. I personally think this is worth a discussion as well.
We have seen several ways to determine where players are put this round: completely random, based on activity, or filling the best filled galaxies first. In my opinion the placement of planets should be different for different categories.
First I would like to suggest a new way to distribute players. It is clear that one of the problems in this game is that people who end up in a galaxy in the bottom of the universe have wasted their money. People will farm them dry. My suggestion would be: place the people in the bottom hundred galaxies of the universe. This will make these galaxies keep up in score, making them less usefull as roidfarms. Some galaxies that succeed in getting their act together have a decent chance of growth (because they have more galaxy members).
Ofcourse these galaxies will not be the best. I would only exile people who self-exile (I don't even think this option should be there tbh) or people who get exiled there (or in the current setup - who exile themselves from the C200s). I'm not sure about the new accounts maybe these should be distributed randomly over the universe, or perhaps even initially placed in the non-bottom 100 galaxies.
Anyway: feel free to disagree and let me know about your opinion.
