Zorg Empire

I have waited till the 1st awards were made before I posted this.. I hope the reason becomes clear as you read..

I will start off by saying that the principle of the awards is sound..and may encourage active game play and even improve the player base if one or two changes could be made.

My main concern with this new set up is the automated system.. If anyone is attacked it is immediately posted on the scoreboard.. I would like this stopped.. for the following reasons..
It allows the hole of ZE to know that the attacked player is off line.. That player is then attacked several times on many if not all his planets/moons by multiple players..giving them no chance what so ever..in fact, it is more of an annihilation. Which in my opinion will drive players to quit the game altogether..I would like to see this changed to an end of day up date or at least some hours after the attacks to allow a chance that the player comes on line.
This new set up means that one players efforts of finding a player off line is then sent to all active players, I find this very unfair.. If you look at last weeks top attacks a lot were made on the same player by at least 6 different player because of this..

Can I please ask who on earth set an award for the top defender when in fact it is the most hit player/biggest looser.. award. that is a slap in the face. It would be much better if this award was for the player that actually defended..e.g. set a ninja or the attacker lost more than the defender.. this would be a true award.

All I can say is please ZE change these points before even more established player leave. I can assure you this new system is open to abuse.. I am sorry to say I proved this.. almost in one hit..I can do this every week to show you this if needed. I would also like to state ( I can not prove this yet ) but lets just say I send 3.5 billion of my own resources to an undefended moon of an inactive player.. I then send multiple attacks to collect my own resources.. Result.. to raider award..

One more point is the top climber award.. Please remove all players returning from VM from this list.. It is unfair on players that through hard work have grown who try to achieve this award just for a player to pop out of vm and jump 2500+ ranks.. without effort. It makes a mockery of the award.. (Of course this is one award I can not win.) It will be impossible for me to climb up ranks..lol

I would like to sum up that the idea is fun and should encourage better game play but please remove this automated report system to allow players a chance.

My thoughts on the scoreboard for what they're worth......

Top Raider.......Gozar can win this without even trying by his own admission
Climber of the week........Pointless as coming out of vmode can make you a winner lol
Defender of the week.......Generally shows you who the biggest loser/target is
Raider of the week.......open to abuse as already stated (and has been imo, you know who you are!!!)

The fact that updates are immediate upon attack completion gives everyone the heads up on who is profitable and offline.....if you are unlucky enough to not return to game in time for your f/s it won't be just your fleet you will lose, you'll find you have been bashed to pieces aswell!

In theory, a great idea and has made Extreme more active (for now) but think without some tweaks it will end up like Massacre with lots of inactives and vmoders.

Maybe the Scoreboard would be best for alliances as opposed to individuals.......at the very least lose the immediate updates and delay by an hour or more.

In the meantime I should just go look at the Scoreboard and see who has just been hit hard (nice to know they're offline) and see whose raids went right up (nice to know they're online, saves me deut lol)

this i agree i hate the award cause it shows up tooo much info

Just because someone is attacked doesn't mean that they are offline.
For example lanx hits and ninjas normally happen when someone is online.
And as far as someone sending their resources to an inactive to raid it back is just sad.
The admins have ways to track trades and considering the inactive would not be trading back this would be an illegal pull technically and the person doing it should get his acct banned for a couple days or whatever it is that they do to pullers.

I was generalising......maybe if I said that no d/f was showing on defenders stats it would maybe indicate they were offline at the time........and I agree that "pulling" oneself (just leave it lol) should result in a ban

well award system was good for on reason
extreme is alive once again
but a notice also to much players v moded after get bashed to heavens.
a think it will be great like this:

Attackers of the Week - decide by how much resurses you take from players
not defense bashing

Climbers of the Week - not good when v mode players come back and there are number one
so a propose that it will be points calculated
let say a build ships or defenses or building
by resurses how much did you spend it on that that will be better

Defenders of the Week - a think here could be added only njinja or defend himself when you are online

Raiders of the Week - how much you raid around
let say a raid 5 people
gozar raided 15

and it will be like this:
1.gozar 15
2.Pein 5
by calculating how much you raid around

also what is point on medals to prove you are number one basher or raider
a propose that zorg give top 10 place reward in some resurses.
also player ho was already number one cant particapte for one weak in same reward to give others
chanse to get medals too

it is still getting in the way of hiding a fleet

If your fleet is getting crashed it isn't doing a very good job of hiding anyways so your point is moot.

you can say that again

i agree raid or attacks shouldn't show right away. to say the least it exposes activities
