Make It A Game Again!

There is a small group of folks that have made this game a major part of their real life. My personal opinion is that it is their landing in a search for significance. It is time to make it a game again (MIAGA). We should return this game to the individual. Individuals who seek like minded friends to join an alliance. These alliances who seek to prove themselves the best alliance, not individuals. There are other servers within EE to seek individual recognition. Alliance is not the place for that fluff.
As a starting point, I propose the following to MIAGA:

1) NO wars before Turn 2000
2) NO attacks on actual countries before Turn 2000. BOTS only. Actual country attacks before Turn 2000 would result in L:L retal only
3) Land trading within an alliance would be permitted. If other alliances have an issue with this, instead of blowing up AT, they can declare war with that alliance
4) GDI was intended as an individual protection. Ya gotta pay for it through expenses. If your alliance intends to net then, ALL members of that alliance shall join GDI
5) ANY and ALL retals shall be L:L and may be taken by any member of the attacked alliance. If you don't like it, hit the bots
6) Victory in War shall be determined by a Tag Kill only.
a) your country loses all pop, you are dead
b) your country joins GDI or Vacation, you are dead
c) your alliance request a Cease Fire, 24 hrs following the CF request, the war is over
7) Pacting can assist in like minded alliances:
a) FDP Full Defensive Pact.
b) LDP Limited Defensive Pact
c) ELIMINATE NAP Non Aggression Pact / No Attack Pact (Let GDI protect your azz along with your FDP/LDP)
d) DNH Do Not Hit (Only temporary while alliances are at war)
8) By MIAGA, the small group of folks no longer have the power to destroy this game. Equal rules, among equal alliances.
9) To ensure game integrity, ONLY "Alliance Mods" or developers, can delete a country. Suspect cheaters should PRIVATELY be reported to the applicable Alliance leadership. Cross-server Mods should Privately discuss cross-server cheaters and with leadership, remove the applicable cheater(s). Keep the sausage making off of AT. If the Alliance Mods and the applicable Alliance leadership delete a country then the rest of us must know the process has been followed and just move on. Any request for appeal will be through alliance leadership and the Mods and their determination shall be final
10) I am not a 'puter nerd but, there should be a way to remove multiple accounts from an individual alliance player. These multiple accounts should be identified by the player for resolution and reported to the Alliance Mod AND the applicable Alliance Leadership

What did I forget?

Are you challenging Derrick?

Neva!!! poor guy might go suicidal

His response is taking a bit so you know he took it as a challenge :P

Keep it non-toxic. He is prolly busy writing a book to post here.

This is an idea I would support

That's my point 😂

c) your alliance request a Cease Fire, 24 hrs following the CF request, the war is over
What if the other side doesn't want a CF?

Lol. I dont wanna break my self enforced rule of only saying positive things to sui. My opinion on this subject is also already on the bugs and sugs forum. Some of the ideas have great merit, other parts I'm iffy on but I like that sui seemed to take the time to think about it and post about it eloquently. I can appreciate that. Anything else?

If the other side won't conform, kill em all :)

Seriously though, leaders should stick to the rule

Take that L:L and shove right up your ass!

Don't go dramacrat on me. You no likey L:L then what is your suggestion?

L:L for actual acres, ghost acres are, well, ghost acres

Shove this one up your bum too!!!

I'm game. I've been around this game long enough in some form or fashion (even breaks), that I wouldn't mind seeing this.

I'm down with that.... L:L actual acres. Ghost acres only count as the bonus

and what would you suggest? acting like a dramacat

galleri, ban urself for sexual innuendo..... unlike some of you, I am exit only

Sennnnnsaaaatiiiiive

You so crazy. Im going to bring you some Truly.

LOL I'm actually having one with dinner right now, original lemonade 👍 so far my favorite is the pineapple one, thanks for the recommendation!

Done! 🟣

Nooooooooooooooooooo

Sorry, I have a weakness for pineapple, have you ever had pineapple pepperoni pizza? It's bliss to your taste buds!

I LOVE PINEAPPLE ON PIZZA!!!!!
P.S.
Do you have a pineapple pepper variety too? :P lol

No pineapple pepper variety yet, I made roasted habanero pineapple mango sauce this past summer and it was great, sent samples to family to get feedback and it was good, I'll make more in few months and send you a bottle, looking to make white ghost with white peaches hot sauce too, that's why I'm hoping the white ghost pepper plant is legit white, I'll be pissed if they fluffed up that one too, came from different seller so I'm hoping he sent me the right seeds.

Racist

Im ok with this

I might just order these

Apparently they're still unavailable :-(

"Seeds are not available for the Aji Pineapple Pepper. Please visit our seed store to view current selections. Seeds were last available in October 2020"

I tried getting them last year and struck out.

Nice, I'll order some, been wanting that variety since last year 😉

Nah I got you :)

Have you ever considered the humorous phrase "Don't make anything idiot proof, somebody will only invent a better idiot"?

There will never be a time when the game will be completely free from cheaters. It's the nature of the beast called the community. There are always going to be a few young'uns that want to have something to brag about, thus they cheat to get there faster, while they are still able to live in the P's basement.

They eventually mature, but not until they've sowed their wild oats as it were.
