Fleet of Darkness left our empire and joined the Evil empire.

My opinion would be of reorganize our empire or maybe create a new one using similar name and only include the active players, maybe that way we can get some more players to join us.

moving empires doesn't help... it hurst... i know... been there done that...

this sort of thing does happen from time to time... like cluture flipping in the game of GalCiv.... its all taken in stride by me.... what i can't stand is when players just do it without any notice to the current empire...

my stories are just that stories... trying to entertain and make whats happening in the empire into a stry.. to make things interesting

Yes i take the micky out of ppl.. and other empires.. but its all in fun and jest...

I'd just like to know why ppl leave the empire so much...

if it is the aging problem.. then its all my fauilt... i've been in here for about 2 years now.. so if it is aging (which i had been told had been fixed) then some of my games are being dropped completle from thew calculation of the scores... I had been told that this had been fixed and would no longewr happen... wehy the hell should someone be penalized just because they've been playing the game for so long...

this sucks big time... if this is what is happening... I may have to drop out of the empire sceene all together as its very demoralizing for everyine in the emnpire... ...

I seem to be draggingf the empire down... what do you all think....

You are the one who is keeping the empire a float, don't get discouraged, you are the backbone of this empire.

The stardock system for points sucks, that is the reason that many people have cheated, abandoned the game and disappeared from this board, if every single point you make will count towards your score, then and only then this game scoring will be fair, rigth now stinks, forces players to play masso to achieve points to be able to go up in the metascore, that is a stinky mess. I am again about to quit once and for all.

                        
#1181  by Citizen Disciple777 - 2/1/2005 7:42:36 PM

I don't like to play masso, I like to play normal, but for every 12k games I submit I only receive 1k for my personal score, that is WRONG and stupid!!!!

I agree with you Mayito8888. The Meta is broken. I hope the GalCiv II Meta is better, but I don't have much hope.

No... the normal aging is good... and it encourages ppl to spread their games... and not burn out in a month or three...
if you play a reanobale amount of games in any 30 day perios... lets say 16 games (a game every 2 days...

you'll get
your total score for the last 30 days / square root of the number of games in the last 30 days

Then you also loose 5% of your score every 30 day period after the first 30 days


This is all well and good... and i can see the merit in doing this.. and its a fair system... as it applys to everyone

there are however 2 things that i don't agree on thats happening.. and have co mplaioned many times about them...

1. Not everyones scores are being aged... eg: if your a player who played like crazy for say 60-90-120 days then never submit another score.. then your scores don't drop ... your scores should drop age like the others who are submitting games still...

2. Aparently if you've been playing for more then 365 days then your scores start dropping off the face of the earth after 365 days... which sucks big time ... why should you be penalized when your a loyal player ...and been playing for a long time...

If these 2 things were fixed then it would indeed be a true and just scoring system...


                          
#1184  by Diplomat Blue_Steel - 2/2/2005 6:32:43 AM

unfortunatly as my games are past the 365 day period that are now disapearing completly... and our empires score is reflecting this... unfortunatly i can't possibly submit more games thaan i am.. which is not enough to covwer the 30k+ / day that i'm loosing as games disapear from the scoring mechanism... If this problem alone was fixed like i had been told that it had been then i wouldn't be complaining as much


                          
#1185  by Citizen Rog1156 - 2/2/2005 7:29:24 AM

hey i'm still here just have not had time to play!!!

damn we got messed up by PhasersOnStun which was/is a top player with over 1m points on another profile can't remember just who but i read in one of the forums who it was.

Qwerk's points are the same it's all just soo evil

                    
#1186  by Citizen Rog1156 - 2/2/2005 9:01:01 AM

I guess i messed this up playing on 1.22 can't get big points argh need play AP or masso

i've been playing painful because it's easy enough that i don't get stressed, and can't lose but it's still hard enough that i can learn things about the AI by watching. I'm very thorough and like to see everything about a game.

well anyways it seems more productive just start a new profile with AP and retire my old name not really a big deal to me but cheezy.

i think i got to do 1 or 2 more games with 1.22 yet if i star over it's gonna be masso only.

The First Officer has been away on a mission...Working closely with the crew of NeoTech Alliance. We now have a new game underway trying to convert some a new alien species to the ways of Federation at this very moment Admiral Qwerk!

If someone left us to join the evil empire so be it! We do not need anyone who is not loyal to our cause. Long live the Empire, long live Admiral Qwerk! (As our leader of course

We will get right back on course no worries follow overlords!

May StarFleet live long and PROSPER !

[even though I'm not in it]

Might consider it one day though
I'd love to play Galciv II though sounds from the neotechgaming news that it's a rockin' cool game


Keep on going Qwerk; you've progressed over those 2 years [oh my gosh that many? ] Don't loose hope

                      
#1191  by Veteran Cosmic Fox - 2/2/2005 7:53:18 PM

Welcome Aboard Space_Man ... Now if we could only stop ppl from leaving... I'm in this empire for the long haul... I wass just voicing my concerns that me being in here is actually doing more harm than good... and maybe this is why ppl are leaving... eg: it apears that i have to submit at least 6 games / month myself just to keep my score as it was... so with me only submitting 10 a month my / our scores are only really going up by about 80,000 / month... I'll try an d do better... The whole trick with playing the metaverse asn't to post lots of games.... its to post the same number of games each and every 30 day pariod... This is cthe Key to playing the metagerse... never submit (you can play as many as you like... even save them for hard times) more games in any 30 day period than you think that you can submit the same number of games for say the next 6 months .. or even longer


You can still play AP as often as you like... just only submit what you think you can to regularly

Thanks Qwerk; I think I have much to learn in Galciv and in GalcivII I'll have a lot lot more to learn there as well.
I started an empire but no one was joining it... so not out of discouragement but merely noticing that StarFleet here was having troubles; and you were too and you guys lost a couple of players... I thought I might try to make some people feel happy.

Hopefully StarFleet will get better!
I wouldn't mind hearing some of your tips on recruitment too.... because if I get the chance I could try and recruit for Starfleet; and possibly create some kind of new ship like on your website. They are like squadrons right?. I mean, one day this could happen.... 2 ships would make a StarFleet [fleet; grouping of more than one vessel]


We can talk later about that stuff; I mean I'd rather work at submitting games / playing / enjoying them for now.
