Yeah I would love to, just let your mines expire, otherwise a mindless drone can trade behind mines all day and never even remotely get touched.

Once again, a 21x perfect behind mines... I am shocked someone isn't 400k at this point.

Has anyone ever even tried to jump in here and hunt someone? I see all these flimsy excuses. It's unbelievable that so much effort isn't given to be creative and daring in this game anymore.

Creative and daring? Not much creativity left with the setup allowing what is has allowed. To easy to maintain a minefield outside a single galaxy, too easy to manipulate routes and too much money for extended routes. Not sure how the game got here over the years but I don't see it as allowing for more creativity. It has squashed it if anything.

I find it hysterical to the point of laughing alone in my house, that JJ and others look down upon building a planet gal, mining it for protection and then building a route for cash and exp. I remember when this was how the game was played for the last 15 years. I will bet 100$ to anyone that thinks JJ wont next round, or the round after, or some future round, build a planet gal with mines a good route and large planets. Any takers.

JJ, it takes more then a mindless drone to coordinate 25 people to build this gal and minefield and route. Hoever, saving turns for 2 days in fed, then clearing with 12 ships, then back to fed, I can multibox that with 12 proxy accounts. LITERALY droning 11 other ships IS with me. :lol: :lol: :lol:

btw, 10$ to anyone who kills jester. Maybe more if I like the kill.

Hell make it 1000, there isn't a chance in hell that someone kills him in your mines unless someone leaves your alliance to do it. Oh and it isn't hysterical that you mine 4 galaxies so much so that the 2 planet gals are relatively untouched. Why be proud of never having any interaction at all except for one lucky op we had where we found your lander. Oh and give the fed crap a rest, you know damn well if we took the other gal you'd bust it daily so it never built. The mere fact that the planets were knowingly done wrong this game ( I had it earmarked for them to start out at 15-30Level) but they weren't implemented correctly. Plus the fact that BF was not your competition until 3-4 weeks into the game. If you want to toss around blame talk to ACD and his failed alliance venture.

So what you're saying is that nothing is your fault on this map?

Anyways besides that, it comes down to bad alliance leadership. If no one is willing to take chances, or even just play the game, then of course it's going to be stale. The mines on the route are actually pretty few, it's just that no one has tried to even do it. It's sad that no one even tries in SMR anymore unless they are winning by a mile.

Maybe we should just removed fed all together.
