Idea for Wars

Thank you!

Regarding the chat - Maybe when a player joins the game the Chat window could be additionally opened and player automatically connects it unless in settings he switch this option off. The default would always be to auto-connect.

I think this little thing would really improve communication among players. ofc this is my personal opinion

I checked the chat
when you register, you are not immediately connected.
it takes a day or so.
Then you are automatically connected.

we should probably inform players about it.

we can connect them immediately.
we did in the past.
we had many fake accounts where people created an account,
shouted abuse and nobody knew who they are.

now, they have to come the next day for the shouting.
by then, it is not relevant any more.

The changes in unit sizes and in the price of defensive weapons is significant.
we will reduce the price more in the next update, probably in the coming week.

same with units size.
we will look at other units we skipped in the first update.

There is a lot there about communications.
Did the GM kill the communications? How did he do that?

also, chats with Jozi
Jozi is willing to chat.
how do want to organize it and who is doing it?

We had lots of talk about the war game but when the possibility was there to fight, nearly nobody wanted to take the risk.

Making players in game level one vulnerable to attacks means they can be destroyed by an experienced player after a single war they win.

in FB war levels limitations are very light.
you are vulnerable very quickly.
I do not see many more wars there.

even giving winners $ 200 in cash did not create much interest.

Andy,

I've been here many years and I would love to take over Laguna's place as the host of the Jozi Chat. If the GM is receptive to the the idea of doing an old school Jozi Chat I'd be happy to dedicate my time into making and creating a program for such event. I know we have old records of the Jozi chat on the forums and I would love to continue building on that platform as it was a very successful back in the day.

Yeah, these Jozi chats used to be fun and meant a lot to all the players, I would really take some time of my calendar to participate. If Super can organize this and make anyone free to join I am in. Maybe it is possible to make not a chat but an audio conference via skype or some other tool as voice conversation is usually more effective than just bunch of txt messages.

Maybe the agenda could be organized in two parts - few topics from players perspective and few from W3C.

Andy and W3C, if you guys are in this, we can agree on the date of the first one and start organizing place/agenda.

A lot of great ideas. I would support these ideas becauseI feel they would improve player interest and communication, just to name a couple. I look forward to seeing them progress into reality here @ SC.

Andy,

Here's my idea for a Jozi Chat

I think the GM's best course of action is to create a Twitch TV gamming channel. We then use the Twitch channel to host regular Jozi chats, Developer updates, and Possible game changes. One issue many players have is the antiquated GM to player sharing of information on the game. Doing your updates on Twitch once a month in a 10min or less update allows people to have more involvement. You can still post on the game update section, but due to the nature of twitch it would also allow people to join in and listen at random to your updates and comments increasing exposure to the site and mobile app. If your open to this I would be willing to create a channel and do the leg work in an effort to help the GM expand.
As for the Jozi chat, I'm thinking that I can create a survey monkey poll with the following questions (I would also provide the GM private access to the poll).
