You may have the troops and the assaults to go with them, but always remember....

I have crashed the server!!!

Meh, I've certainly got to credit Infatagable's apparent intelligence and bravery (I know I wouldn't be able to argue with somebody with as many posts as SS as a newb ;P). My personal feelings about a reset are that it simply covers up an unscalable design. I may simply be weird in wanting it to be nice and scalable, but I'd personally rather focus on redesigning the game to make a reset unnecessary than creating a periodic reset. Also, one of the strengths of SkyLords as an online game is that there aren't resets -- you can save up to be powerful. Personally, I'd find a game that regularly wiped out all my progress a tad frustrating to play ;P. (It's one of the things that drew me here to begin with ).

Force of nature.

I agree. I prefer games where there are periodic recognitions of success, like we have here, but also the ability to build up something of value over time to be spend in conquests or gaining points at a time of the player's choice. A reset removes a degree of flexibility or choice regarding timing of spending resources.

Most newbies don't expect to be top of the stats right at first anyway, but those who do also will have the option to compete on a level playing field in the new version of the game on a new server. For those that want to compete in a more mature playing environment, against vets, we will maintain this existing server for as long as people want to keep playing in a legacy environment. I suspect that this version of the game will continue to exist for a long time.

It is clear that a reset would hurt those that built this game.
It is also clear that change is a way of life.
I would suggest that there needs to be away for newbies to be some what protected.
I wonder if morales points could be used to determine how willing troops are to defend a planet?
Or maybe how fast a planet "matures"
I ramble, please forgive

Well I wish to spread my words of love.
