why? does your "Ascend" button *magically* disappear once you hit 100mil?
maybe admin thought about all this, and decided that if the "Big players" in both servers want to continue ruling they will have to sacrifice one of the their accounts for a while until they catch up again

ok so what your saying is that if someone was at 100m troops lets say.
A bunch of people started complaining that its not fair and they deserve more. So the rules are changed and you must deal with it. fine, so be it.
But now, to keep their place you decide that you really need to ascend again. but to do so your going to have to sacrifice atleast 1/4 of your account. give me a break.

The cap is at 50mil, you think some of us in the hundreds can just simply give up ALL those uu?
And no, not in both servers, thats the problem which you dont see, some will have too and some wont, for no apparant reason. people like mojo are like 10x the size of me in ascended and wont have to do it again, the top players arent getting screwed mate, the ones who ascended early, are.

I will hit 100 million army in less than 24 hours. That is exactly what I plan to do currently. Sucks for my main account, true, and it still won't make my ascension account top notch by any degree, I have no arguments with that, but it is just how it is.

A 200k up ascension atm would boost you well above my current rank20 account, well above, likely 3 or 4x the size.

true, but what your going to see now is alot of farming. My strike isn't overtly huge at 1T but it has always been a waste of time to actually farm.
I guess the bright side is now that everyone has a bunch of freebies I'll have more interest in farming.

age of raiding eneded on ascended...age of farming came again....only possible way to grow fast now is that u build big up.....isn't it ironic that guys with 1m army have nearly 1m up

update on Daimon: the battle losses from a daimon are double (on each side) and casualities on covert (ie the spies dying) are double...No glory either.
this makes it not only a bit more of a penalty, but creates a different playing style/option for the whole gameplay

can you explain what you mean by "both sides"? and also confirm whether its 50% or 100% bonus lost?

ok thats possible too - i honestly cannot remember...either way a display price to actual price difference was the bug..
less than a handful of accounts were affected, and the updates compensates either way, so issue still closed
Mojo Rising wrote:Forum wrote:oh - a note on the production server 'AP<>DMU' conversion rate not working properly regards the > 700Mil planet accounts... (it was supposed to get more expensive...)
1) the display was right, the 'deduction from account' was not.
2) i only today found out about this 'bug' (in short the update appears to never have worked as it should have.)
3) i have no way to say if anyone else noticed they were not 'paying the sticker price' for LF ... or whether they did notice, and kept quiet.
4) the issue is moot, since i used this update to ensure no advantage was gained by said increase in levels with 'underpriced' DMU -- i had to make levels a bit cheaper to do so, but that was the solution i chose over adjusting the account with > 700mil planets...
so - i cannot say anyone cheated versus not noticing the bug. i adjusted the level costs to compensate for this bug such that no permanent advantage was gained.
case closed.
Once again Jason, I must say that either you misunderstood the message that I sent you saying thanks for changing the DMU-LF conversion rate back to 10 million per 1000 LF after you said you were going to. Because it was at the displayed levels for about a week. Then a day or so after you said it would be changed, it was. And I sent you an email actually thanking you for doing so. Not sure if I mentioned that the display was all screwed up or anything.

and that makes it worse for them exactly how?
So if I'm reading that correctly if I wished to mass/farm a Daemon it would cost me double the losses it would usually take to do so?
If that is the case, you now just made them near indestructable in main as well. Nodoy in their right mind unless you are just really pissed at them would want to take those kinda of losses.
I think your still sick and are running a fever. Go get some sleep please so you can pop out of this delusion.
