OK we have started the New team draft tournament sign ups. Please note if we think we get enough players and we get another team captain that could lead a team to the top we may make it a 3 or 4 team draft. Team Captains will be picked from the top 6 players in the last tourney starting at the top and working down.
So sign up at
http://tourney.aatraders.com
Sign up will Run till Sept 12.
Draft will begin and if we can get the draft completed in time, we will begin the Draft Tournament on September 15 and Run through October 15. Although picked captains may start drafting early based on the number of players signed up.
Some of the rules and changes...
1. Once the game starts no new players will be allowed.
2. There will be only a set number of teams and everyone will be on one of those teams.
3. There are NO BOUNTIES. Any player can attack any other player or planet irrespective of their rank. So be careful of the big guys when they appear.
4. There are 1000 unowned planets. Of those 1000 planets 500 of them are Independant. These independant planets are all based, have unique names, a random number of colonists, random number of fighters, random number of torpedos, random tech levels between 1-20 and 30% credit production. So there are some ripe planets for people to attack and take control of right off the bat.
5. Once your on a team you stay on that team. If you leave the team, your out of the game. If the Team Coordinater Kicks you off his team... your out of the game. So best to keep the coordinater happy.
6. No Multi Accounts. 1 account per player. We find any multi's all your accounts will be kicked out of the game. Which will leave your team shy players.
7. If you are killed in an accident and not cloned. Your out of the game.
