we are trying to improve the game all the time, and decided to establish a continung existence of the spacetrace universe with the evolution. changing back to rounds would be a step backwards. |
A reason I don't understand cause the evolution simply is a step back.
Argumentation:

Yes, but that problem is considerably less threathening to the game then the whole concept of n00bbashing.
If everybody starts at the same time, there aren't newbies that come in half way and get trashed everywhere. One of the biggest problems we have atm would be solved and we wouldn't have all these ideas to protect the game ( universe zones, parralel universes and so on. )
Plus getting rounds back in is easier then implementing all those newbie-protecting changes.

Well it is the other way around, and you can't denie it. Masses of players have left due to evolution.
Reasons:
- Less competition
- Newbie bashing
And here are the benefits of rounds versus evolution:
- More players
It is very clear that the number of players has been in a constant decline since evolution.
- Constant competition ( reaching top 10 now is no fun, there is no competition at all. With events there would be SOME competition, but with rounds it would be endless thrilling and nice. )
I guess the lack of competition makes people leave, and it makes it less attractive for people to join back in.
- Better for newbies.
It makes it very hard for people to keep liking the game and stay here for more then a month.
To add even more, I said this earlier on in my post:

That would be a positive change into the right direction.
But is it this:
| admin wrote: | | but the changing to rounds would be a lot of work for us, |
Or is it this:
| admin wrote: | | and we dont get paid for the game, |
That makes the changes not happen? Cause if it is the first one, ask somebody else to HELP. Not take over the game or something else, just some help. More hands make lighter work.
And if it is the second one, well just say so I'll start donating right away and I am sure others will do so also.
| admin wrote: | | so this is why we keep it as it is right now, cause the game works fine now. |
Nope it isn't the game is slowly dieing. |
Nothing?  |

I 100% agree with what William said here ... If its help you need, well i cant do anything... if its money im sure ill be able to find someway to get money too ya even though im not old enough for a credit card...
There are less player now then when I strated to play and that was only a few months ago .... it was at lik 250 when i started now its at 190, after only a few months thats got to say to you that ST is dieing .... I really hope it doesnt but it appears to be, I love this game and sometimes it is boring.
I think you might need something to do with the alliances... maybe create a flag that belongs to the traveliers and the alliance that gets it gets a certain amont of points for holding it... but the bad thing would be that all the other alliances could see who is you FC .... I dunno it might add a new excitment to the game....
