Aileron Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 Okay, there are going to be many things different about this round. First off, due to popular demand this round will last 3 months. Clans have been reset. This was mostly done to remove all of the junk clans, so new players can tell which clans are worth joining. Old clans are free to re-form as they were previously, though it would be preferable if people used this opportunity to form two or three new large clans rather than the dozen tiny ones that existed previously. Also, there's a new rule: All clans must have an active playing leader. If the leader becomes inactive, a new one will be appointed. A clan can run itself however it likes. All I ask is that there is a warm body in the official slot approving the join requests. Final scores will not be posted. Rather, a system of continuous clan-based performance will be used. Two bank accounts are present. The Hidden Stash will charge a 10% withdrawal fee. The Bizarro Bank is free, but will reset itself every 24 hours. The forum administers claim no responsibility for funds lost to the feral accounting monkeys. You have been warned. Clicker has been added. Every time someone clicks on your link you get 100 soldiers, 200 if that person is your officer. There is a new rule on that too: Don't post the link in place its not welcome such as other forums, message boards, email, etc. By the way, feel free to add it to your forum signatures here. Ships were changed. The Terrier now has an income penalty. The Warbird's income bonus isn't so high. Leviathon now has no income penalty but does have covert and sentry penalties. The Weasel's bonuses got moved to Sentry. UP upgrade rate is now 25 instead of 10. This should cause people to grow faster. Weapons are generally stronger and more expensive. Sentry weapons are no longer cheaper than their covert equivalents. Recon should now be feasible. Mercs are now very expensive. Covert weapons now sell at 75%. Conventional weapons still sell at 90%. Max covert level is now 8. Covert levelups are more expensive. Siege and Fortification technologies are now very expensive. Hold off on buying them until all of your weapons cost 4 times the cost of the upgrade. The final upgrades should be affordable about halfway through the round. Points, turns, and soldiers are now gained at the top of the hour rather than at the 15 and 25 minute mark. Due to the 3 month round, there will be a total of FIVE special ships that will be added one at a time every two weeks. They are in this order: Nightwasp, Oldskool Warbird, Oldskool Javelin, Oldskool Spider, Oldskool Leviathon. The Nightwasp will be similar to what it has been. The Oldskool ships will be just like their parent ships only with a deduction bonus based upon how much time is left in the round.
Synook Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 The Bizarro Bank is free, but will reset itself every 24 hours.Does that mean that if we put points in there, then we need to withdraw them within 24 hours? Also...Rather, a system of continuous clan-based performance will be used.What happens if we don't belong to a clan?
Dav Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 Can you tell us what time the bank will reset? Also Im getting an error telling me im not allowed to access the bank.
Aileron Posted July 1, 2007 Author Report Posted July 1, 2007 Whoops! Bank has been fixed now. The Bizarro Bank resets at a certain time every day. Unfortunatly I do not know when that is. Individual performance will be tracked but not posted. My goal with this is to promote clan vs. clan activity.
Falcoknight Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 Shweet.I think the only thing I really care about in there is the bank changes.
Smarties Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 I think we should know the time of the banks reset before we actually start putting money in there, im scared to put money in, and have it taken away 2 seconds later
Falcoknight Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 Smarties, that's the entire point.We want people to use banks LESS.So if you never know when you're going to lose your money, you're less likely to bank it.
Smarties Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 it will force them to spend there banked money each day, which is better than 90 days later, i atleast think we should know the time so for us that have lives and arent on 23/7, we could have a slight chance of not losing our points, and for newcomers, theyre going to bank, and there money is going to be gone next day, they cry and quit, not knowing the time imo is idiotic
Smarties Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 btw falco, once we find out the time of the reset, people gonna bank like crazy, 1 bank should have deposit fees, the other withdrawl which both has its ups and downs, depositing fee is nice, but in the long run its probably worse than withdrawl, as were with withdrawl, its could cost you lots if you bank continusely or if stock piling, it will hurt if withdrawling a lot
Aileron Posted July 1, 2007 Author Report Posted July 1, 2007 It's easy enough to figure out what time it occurs. Just put a point in the bank and wait until it dissappears. Oh, and for those of you who plan on stockpiling, but withdrawing every day just before the monkeys, waiting a minute and then depositing just after the monkeys, you'd better have a good defense because it won't be long until players would hunt at that time. They would have 100+ opportunities to hit you at just the right minute.
Falcoknight Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 I thought every other round attacks didn't open until the second day? I've already been attacked.Is this round even 24 hours old? That's bull!@#$%^&*.
Smarties Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 well i win, i found bank time, although i lost 900k, it will pay off
The Real Picard Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 My Bizzaro Account has reset TWICE in one day?! Beware!
Ill_Whip_You Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 WTH happend to ill whip you? I'm not playing this round. I did choose a race.. but decided not to play so stopped playing. (I play runescape)
Synook Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 The clan action is not going very well at the moment... there is only one clan
Animate Dreams Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 Okay, there are going to be many things different about this round. First off, due to popular demand this round will last 3 months. Um, excuse me. Please tell me how Aileron's Will cons!@#$%^&*utes popular demand.
Falcoknight Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 Attacks opened within 24 hours. And I'm guessing the clan thing has still not been fixed? Looks like SSCentral is going to win this one, considering no other clans can be created.
Dav Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 SSC gods only has 2 members atm, if its not fixed in a day or two then I suggest the SSC gods score is reset and taken from restarted to make it fair for all clans
Falcoknight Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 Yeah, but Dav, yesterday when he said SSC had 14 points, according to the clan page you guys only had one member. If first place is 10 points, therefore the highest amount of points ONE person can get, how did Aileron manage to give you guys 14? Oh, and now you have three members. And yeah, if this goes on for another day or two before it's fixed, I believe a reset of the clan scores would be in order.
Aileron Posted July 2, 2007 Author Report Posted July 2, 2007 Attacks opening was a mistake. It should have been closed. Attacks have be re-closed and those who have been attacked were refunded. I don't know what's wrong with the clan lists, but now other clans do exist and have members, so they will score points. You get 5 points for being first in the sectionals. Max per person is 30. Keiver actually had 20. Ani, fyi, there's a poll around here somewhere...
Ill_Whip_You Posted July 3, 2007 Report Posted July 3, 2007 Okay, there are going to be many things different about this round. First off, due to popular demand this round will last 3 months. Um, excuse me. Please tell me how Aileron's Will cons!@#$%^&*utes popular demand. There was a poll you moron.
