Late Sign-up Question

Hi guys,

Apologies if this has been asked many times, but a quick search of the forums revealed some, but not all answers to my questions and i only actually have 1 main question left:

- What tick do you have to sign up on? Is it before tick 336, after tick 336 or on tick 336?

I understand that a shuffle happens at t336, and this determines how many late signups a gal can have based on number of buddy pack members etc before the shuffle, but do i have to signup before tick 336?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Late Sign-up Question

No shuffle occurs at tick 336. You can sign up whenever you want, but if you want to late join a galaxy, you can only do that after tick 336, and only if you're in protection. To achieve that at the earliest possible time, you need to reset at tick 289 or later. It takes 24 hours to reset and you'll be in protection for another 24. If you haven't signed up a planet already, at tick 313 should be fine.

You can do it later, too, of course, but the earlier you do it, the more ticks you'll have.

All this barring any crazy changes in the last 5 rounds or so, since that's the last I played.

Re: Late Sign-up Question

If you sign up at 312 you will be out of protection at 336, and you can't join any gal. 313 is the earliest

Re: Late Sign-up Question

Remember, if you're doing it at tick 313; you'll only have 1tick (1hour) to get into your late gal before you're out of protection.
