I just noticed that a few BATTLEOPENED messages from server are broken including the one for the PW host:
failed to process server msg:'BATTLEOPENED 7264 0 0 PlanetWars 94.23.171.71 8496 32 1 0 -373207118 FolsomDamFinal PlanetWars online campaign ' (extractSentence failed)

The modName is missing at the end, i guess this is because the OPENBATTLE msg from the PW host is missing this. modname is a required param (afaik) so i think uberserver should not accept the broken OPENBATTLE msg.

Hmm does it really matter? Normal games have better balance anyway and this round of pw is pretty much over.

Sak wanted to keep PW running but I no longer care for this view enough to stop me from officially closing PW.

You seriously think its possible to stop someone with >30 ship production (thats 2700 ip just in ships) per battle? Too bad you only made a few of them.

And if you lose that is -300 ip. Also we would make more ship factory in about 3 weeks after we have payed for 1,000 + IP on all our worlds.

You get more ip and less risk playing 3 battles with 10 ships each.

If you have that many ships you can force battle to be on the world you are attacking every game. But you will not have that many ships maybe 8 a turn if you maxed them. But it is very risk you need a more balanced approach because you are defender and attack. Because PW is FFA.

Well if you choose your battles correctly losing wont be a problem for you with this clanstack balance. Besides you get 30 ip per ship for winning and only -10 ip per ship for losing. Thats not really risky....Even if you lose 2 out of 3 battle you still get more ip than you lose.

66/2 = 33 extra ships per turn...If you just stack up ships for a couple of turns you can takeover a 3k ip porc world in a single battle. I guess you kind of underestimated the power of ship factories.

I still feel compelled to say ships are not per turn and they are not even per-battle. You only get ships when you are not attacking. So they are more like every 1/3 battle you get more. You also have a limit on how many ships you can save up.

You get way more ip if you focus more on ships thats why you have to play to get ships. Getting over 3k (with only 1 player with 30 ship production) ip after playing 4 battles means you get like 30k credits per turn just from ships alone.

I saw cybernetics playing quite some games in a row with like 6 ppl and you could have easily taken 3k+ ip worlds before i would even notice it if you sended alot of ships. But instead of that you randomly attacked worlds with maybe 10 ships?

Its really sad pw gets changed because some nubz who dont know they should build starship factories whine about ip buying being op. Nothing is op about it. I couldnt stop you from winning i only delayed you a bit just like porc ingame does. The main reason i could delay you is that you didnt send enough ships.

Pw goes more and more to nolife 24/7 farming if stuff like ip buying gets removed. Most ppl dont have time to play 20 games in a row like cybernetics did.

Like I said Rick its over and IP buying is going to be removed next round.

The reason it was ended was because IP buying was OP........
