I'd like to point out that it's not all vets, RCK. Jester and I are having fun, and both of us are getting new players involved in the new aspects of the game.

It seems that most of the complaining comes from ONE alliance, the same alliance that complains every time something doesn't go THEIR way.

I liked the map, I felt it allowed for a lot of different strategies and allow smaller alliances to have some fun, too. That opinion has not changed.

I think someone suggested a 17 vet cap? I'd be happy with that.

RCK your link takes me to vote for some aegis game. Ploy did not work!

I'm afraid RCK is innocent, I play Aegis (a nice slow game that serves as a time killer when I'm on break), and I copied the links from their website when I gave them to Page.

I sent Page a list of about six voting sites, 4 - 5 rounds ago. I know he posted them to the admins.

Well this is where we differ in opinion, because to me the newbies I have trained that stick around do so in high pressure atmospheres. Action brings people back imo. We do differ here, because I've seen players leave alliances because the alliances were too hard core. In every war game I played, t...
