as predicted before its conception by meBlade wrote:The current map was a good design, it was the lack of active alliances that made is hard, in all other games all galaxies where built up and defended, seems this game there was a lack in galaxy owning alliances and a smaller player base.

-the pink is a 5x5 CA galaxy, with two CAs, a bank, a uno, and a bar
-the green are the racials
-the yellow is one big neutra
-all racials connected to neutral, ALL racials AND the neutral connected to CA
-the blues are 7x7 planets
-the red are the 5x5 trades
THIS IS CANFF'S IDEA FOR HIS MAP AND
and this map was created by the one and only Baalzamon and his own idea about the CA Galaxys

and i had poca post it because I didnt know how to
The CA galaxy is 3x5,(i changed my mind) with two CAs, a bank,a uno, and a bar. Its connected to all racials and the neutral for a total of 8 warps. I have it connected to so many galaxies because CA mining is always a problem. You would need to find the safest route to a CA, and while some may say that this makes the CA too easy to get to, I don't see what the big deal is, to be honest. Gives newbies a chance to use mines, CDs, and scouts, and it seems to me that the community has been trying to make the game more newbie friendly lately
I attempted to illustrate what canff meant with the planet-port galaxies, whether I did or not, i'm not sure about.
I have one big neutral galaxy because this is a summer game. And summer games generally have a lower activity, so I think a smaller map is needed for this summer.

whatever happens, please pick a map that will be sufficient to that of good activity, and make sure there isnt pinch points
as for the maps PLEASE look at the games that had the most activity, and please do not make the game bigger than 2500 sectors

In agree blade. I think alot of people will change their minds once the arguments are read and presented. If anything, close the slow game and open a new one. Dupont is fine and still full of active alliances who were uneffected by this Cru/FH squabble which turned ugly.

Instead of ending DuPont now, let's see if in 1 month or so, that it would need to be closed early. A 4 month long game is pretty long, and I think that after July, the Crus - FH war will have some sort of ending, and we will have a Spooky (or a few Spooky). I think ending it in Sept. is just too far, that's too much time for a fast game, and it will be stale by August I predict.
