MD would like to thank both Rival and TPA for the war, it's been fun! We'd like to thank our Police for their protection as well. Good luck in the coming resets to both alliances. No hard feelings on our side, you did what you needed to do :)
Everything atryn says is right. We've discusses this for a while now, but we have no viable way of tracking this. Spies are just as important if not more important during a war than hitters. WIthout a spy, we never get the op, we never get the breaks right.
Even if you don't have time to place the logs where the clan admins can see them, if you could just send someone from MD's leadership a list of our spy ops for this set, we'd appreciate it. Not necessarily all the ops, just a list of how many where done, or however you guys have them filed. We can sort/seperate anything you have to offer us.
I've seen a couple of you guys/gals post that the intention of the changes were to lengthen kill runs and basically help protect someone's investment they've made into their country. While I agree it is painful to put your whole 2 minutes a day into building a country up, just to have it destroyed, I don't agree with the changes personally. You have to remember the other 15 people who also put time into their country, who worked as a team, and cooperated well enough to destroy your country in 30 seconds or less. Those kill runs don't just happen easily, they are well coordinated and administered with flawlessness. How about giving them props for being so awesome, rather than penalizing them by giving the guy they killed 75% of his stuff back?
I agree with kalick, unable to destroy their stock now makes me want to OOP war more than ever now. Killing your ability to get stock with the surprise FS versus letting you get stock and only being able to kill a porition of it seems way more viable now.
If you could answer my questions with a 1,2,3,4 format, I would appreciate it. Don't give me a blanket answer, either tell me that you DO NOT want to answer the question and you prefer not to give us insight to future changes, or answered fully by the people who implemented them.
I first off want to say, I enjoy the fact that you guys/gals are trying to improve the game by making changes. I love that part of this, but these changes you've made to warring are completely stupid. While you've had the best intentions doing the changes, they've really made war SUCK. I hope you've seen how things are going between this current MD/SOL 'vs' SOF war and can see that the changes have HUGELY impacted how wars are fought and how the "win" conditions of a war are going to change from what we've previously known. It's now not as important to get a tagkill as it is to level them and limit their growth, keeping them stagant.
Now my questions are:
1) Have the changes that you've made delivered the results you were trying to achieve? (As in making a FS weaker or w/e your goal was)
2) Do you have intentions of making changes next set? If so, do you plan on returning things to the way they were, or just improving on the current changes?
3) What do you now classify as a win or a loss in a war, where killing is underpowered, and leveling is overpowered?
4) When you guys are making changes to the game, how do you determine what you will change? Are you taking advice from players, or just making them based off your game play or what you see happening?
With this being said, These are ONLY personal opinions. I'm sure others have their own opinions of things and what they think. That's expected as none of us are the same. Please don't turn this thread into something stupid by being a dumb fluff and trolling it. Be serious, express your opinion on the changes, and let your voice be heard.
Thanks

It's very similar to it galleri. Different rules, but still the same concept of World Domination.
MD is planning on having a large game Friday afternoon around 5pm eastern time. Anyone interested in playing is more than welcome. Come to #md on our irc channel and we'll get everyone in who wants to play :)
Try to get a game or two in before that to get accustomed to the game and rules please :)
AMPY! Yes Md is still around, we're currently sitting at 74 tagged members. I've heard LOTS about you, and there are MANY old MD'ers around still. You should definately come back to the game and give us a chat sometime :) I know the folks in MD would love to see you!
right, and you fail...I've seen that happen on retals before. You are like dude I put in 5 minutes to make sure I had the break right, wtf happened LOL.
Oh well, it was an accident, I can accept it, now lets see if AT can :)
