Could be. It's one of our own, actually. So if they see the thread and want to speak up, they can. I don't really mind at the moment, but if they keep jumping, I'll just go for the fire on sight option.

You should really go around and see who in your alliance still plays. I know that I actually farm one of your members, as he lacks a defense, and is accumulating turns and UU with no training or use in sight. He makes a nice farm. So I would suggest going through and getting rid of those whom are no longer playing.

On another note, is there anyone here who is gaining G&R points/has 1001 G&R points? I'm open to helping anyone who wishes help to ascend.

I've been meaning to cull the ranks again, I should do that soon. In fact, maybe i'll send that message around tonight.
EDIT: A message has been sent around. If you're in the alliance and still playing, either send me a message in game, here, or post in the thread.

I am gaining G&R and am at 620 currently. I think myself and RepliLancer are the only members of the alliance gaining G&P. Gizmo, of course, is still in those ranks.

I haven't gotten and G&R points yet, but i've been building my UP a bit more recently.

Still playing, though on gizmo's old account rather than my original one. New username's Tehuty. You'll have to ask gizmo what happened to Djehuti, my original account.

At the moment, I'm harvesting UUs in preparation for several big payments and a jump in the rankings. My ranking has actually fallen quite a bit due to selling off most of my attack weapons.

Playing, currently on PPT for a few more hours.
I converted everything except human-forms into miners for the duration of my PPT, because the retraining costs are more than made up by the extra income during the 48h PPT period.

Of course I'm still playing; I wouldn't have given you back the alliance leadership if I weren't.

Well, I'm still here. Still slowly moving up the ranks...

I am still playing too.

Me too

I'm still around. Been building up my defenses to limit farming by players with 2-digit ranks, now focusing more on raising UU and augmenting the Mothership, in preparation for raising my offense as well.

Still playing. Not to any serious extent though, all I've got are about 100,000 miners, a few thousand super soldiers with invisibility devices, my mothership (go Eschatologist!) and some spare Jaffa who haven't been upgraded yet. When should I be considering attacking people, and how do I go about this?

Alliance member culling has been completed. If anyone was dropped who sent a message, I apologize for that. No slight was intended, I just can't read lists all the time. Feel free to join again.

Oh snap, we can conquer planets now.

And changing your realm alert level costs turns. And even more, you can only be attacked so many times before you're forced into a hubernation state.

Fleets are only useful if you're planning on attacking planets or adding weapons capacity is really expensive for you. For Asgard, they provide about 1/16 the offense points per Naquadah spent when compared to energy volleys.

I think I'm going to like this new planet system. One day's search and I've already got one extra planet in my realm. It's even got its own little SGC designation (which you can change to a name of your choice, of course).

Got a planet on my first search, but it was swiped from me within a few hours by someone with rank 36. He's since reinforced it up to the wazoo, so I'm not getting it back anytime soon.

Hmmm, strange. I got my Covert+AntiCovert ranked as 447 for a while.
Its 1000 now but I noticed that I somehow gained 26 Glory and Reputation points.
Also, my first expedition for nearby planets was fruitless. Oh, if at first you don't succeed, keep on sucking till you do suck seed.

My first search was also fruitless, but I sent my mothership out again this morning, and will probably continue to do so until I get at least a few planets.

I got my first one. P3X-725 is an attack booster, currently adding about 4.5 million to my attack ability. I've promptly added defensive buildings, to the point where an attacking Mothership would need about 300 fleets to defeat my defenses.

Ehh, I've got 10 planets already. Searching is pretty stupid, just build some fleets and rob some from a few idiots/n00bs.

Forum awarded 25 G&R points to everyone because ranks were screwed up for some reason.

So hey... I was thinking about signing up, but am presently unsure as to how it compares with other games in the same vein.

Say, for instance, I was the king of a top 50 BF kingdom in Utopia... would doing well in SGW require the same kind of time investment, co-ordination, and ruthlessness?

Having not played Utopia, I don't know what to compare to, but SGW takes lots of time, lots of co-ordination, and lots of ruthlessness.

No I got farmed just before the changes took place, my friend Crystal got atttacked every day for a week by somebody with 5 times as much offense as they had defense, and a mothership that did about 20 shields damage to mine. (he attacked me as well), before Me, Crystal, and two others, sabbed, and attacked this guy with so much stuff that under the new rules, he's now in hibernation (we kinda eliminated all his defense troops (he only had a 6k to begin with)
