So will you transfer to another server through the graveyard to fight against other sharks ?

Ok, thank you
I think it's too late, but if something can be done to change the merge plan, it would be great
Few weeks after the merge yildun will be the most inactive target server
Yep, you guys in Yildun are f**ked. But it's also you fault, saying just above you would "destroy all the server and go to the next". Not exactly inviting.

The top 20 rule does not apply to forced universe merges.
Also, the stats for Spica (taken from the universe listing on https://board.us.ogame.gameforge.com

3x Fleet, 8x Economy, 16x Research, 6 Galaxies, 50% DF, 50% Deut, ACS On, Probe storage On, +30 Fields, +25k DM
Not true for Spica, it moved to x6 fleet speed I believe following a vote.

Well that's interesting !

My observations when it comes to merges is that 99% of the time, nobody is happy when it comes time to merge.
- People play the universes they are playing because of the stats.
- Each universe has a history which is lost with merges.
- Top ranked in exodus universes will quite possibly not be top ranked in the target universe.
- Lower ranked players feel like they are bait for the bigger fish.
- Merges are very disruptive to the player base.
What really helps with merges is for the community to decide which stats are the most important to them.
This allows me to try and argue for a better plan when the time to merge actually comes.
In my experience, the war fleet speed (or fleet speed in non-split universes) is the most important.
However, you guys might have a different opinion and I would really like to know what server statistics are the most important.
Perhaps deuterium consumption is not as important in a 1x war speed uni but it might be considered vital in a 6x.
Only you guys can tell us what you think and want.
Remember, the stats on the server which are present today can be changed to reflect the desired statistics of the community.
I can assure you, nobody wants to force a 1x war speed player into a 3x war speed universe.
That is a recipe for anger, resentment, and losing community members.
So, let us know which statistics are the most important to you to decide a universe is acceptable as a merge target.
Lastly, opening ORG targets during a US merge is probably a bad idea because it would most likely mean the death of this community.
I do not want to see that and I am sure many of you do not as well.
I think the vast majority of people want to play on the highest eco speed possible, whatever the fleet speed. Then it's important to offer various fleet speeds (1x, 2x, 4x, 6x).

If you want a dead universe you shouldn't even want a merge. I'm looking for more players and historically you don't get a lot of new players going to a 1x universe even with a merge so we may get more if us and org could choose between the 2 during a merge.
You are right, I don't want a merge.
And you are right, MOSTLY NO ONE wants a x1 universe. DON'T FORCE THIS ON US.

I'd be open to a merge with .org as we need more active players. Prongs it's worth a discuss with your leadership to see if that is an option and then see how many people would be in favor of it here.
If you want more active players, just create an account on .ORG or put your account in the graveyard and move there. Don't force people to leave a community they like ...
-
I think merging with .ORG would be an awful idea, absolutely not.

I agree, I would love to see Himalia stay (and would probably go there if possible).
To me, target universess should all have the highest eco possible (because that's what people want) with different selection of fleet speed (1x, 2x, 4x, 6x at least).
-
I think it's very important to keep the variety of universes.
-
Well I am very happy to play in a dead universe. I build my mines without being attacked and having to spend all day checking the game. It's nice

If you want to be a fleeter though, that's another story.

A lot countries is merging again, when can we see the merge in us..
Or just allow us in Zibal to go to another country, we are 5 persons anyway... it should be very easy to let us move..

I dont see any universe called Zibal ?

I've been announcing them all on the EN board and I can definitely tell you there's no US merge this year at the very least. However, there will be more coming shortly after the new year and we'll let you know ahead of time if and when it's our turn.

I actually don't want a merger, but just to make sure I read your message correctly : are you saying a merger is expected for .US this year, or are you saying there is no such plan for .US at the moment ?

Have you put in a support ticket?

Have you put in a support ticket?
Nope, I wanted to check first if it was normal or not.

(vi)
v = vacation mode
i = inactive 7 days.
Your account must be inactive (meaning no logins) for 60 days to move merge to the Graveyard.
It has been inactive for 4 months

Choose between 3 / 4 different setup of universes, rather than settings ? Only make voting available on some settings, and impose others ?
For example, I would have imposed a x2 or x3 fleet speed on Leda, and made the other settings available for voting. After a fleeter universe like Kalyke, would have been good to get a more "peaceful" one.

Sad to see you go DDX, I will miss our 1-2-1 conversations on Discord and your general grumpiness

Best of luck, wherever that take you, and try and stay positive - there is still so much to be done, seen and discovered !
