Would definitely be interesting. I must say, the idea of playing with only old school players is definitely an attractive offer, but I don't think there's enough players left that old that could play. Plus, I don't think it's fair to cut other players from being able to play. I've been suggesting that it be made a wave in Q. One Q wave of playing the old school way is definitely plenty of time.

lol. Problem with the id idea....what about ppl that played back in 2005, quit, and then came back but with high ids. :cry:

I would absolutely love it if this was brought in. SGWars was so much more fun back in the day before the market....this isn't simply nostalgia. Its like Wolf said, the game was so much more tactical, and without the hassle of planets there'd be none of these planet thief threads everywhere. The game was class back in the day....when sab was the most powerful thing, no planets, no ingame market, no ascension.....twas much better. :wink:

Q and chaos would seem un-interesting then :wink:
So I could be rank 1 on chaos and Q easily :-D

Can people that are voting no say why?

Because if you don't want to play on a new server, thats fair enough...but is there any other reason why people are voting no? :roll:

we suspect it might be because of the 30k thing... perhaps it would be better to have it only for those having player for at least "X" months? (dont have suggestion for number there...)

If that was all it was then they could vote yes without id selection. :wink:

Intresting idea, i would play the new server as well, i dont like the idea of ID selection, should be first come first server thing same as chaos and Q and Main... (and kinda ascention, but thats by who ascendeds first type)

Intresting point, i like it

The id selection isnt fair, but i see why it was suggested.

i would absolutly LOVE a old skool version of this game to be seperate from this one. i could play both kinds. i miss the old days, it was so strategic and more challenging.

Personally, I would love to play in the old skool version of the game. I'm quite curious as to how that works. I'm not THAT old skool of a player (started out about 1 year ago..), but I would love to see how SGW started. It could be quite fun. However, my id# holds me back on that idea.... so I would say yes, but have no id limit.

I like the idea. I'd like it to be so old Skool that it doesn't even have SS, PPT or maybe even the bank. UU that die (but only on defense) would probably greatly improve the powerbalance between big and small. What I wouldn't like is to see restrictions on who can play it. I don't think it's fair to ban newer players and make them miss out on the fun AGAIN. They already missed it first time around.

well, one year is quite a lot, this game has went through some updates in the last year...
I like this idea, it would be sth like a time shift, one year back...but without ID selection
