Would you? I Would in a heart beat!
As i have said countless times, i would without any hesitation
I would buy an SS atleast too, because old style sgw was the best
I now play SGAW instead, because its the closest thing i know to the old SGW but with a twist

I'd have no interest in spending more time on a online game then i do now, so playing to is a no way!!
but if u was to make the main more like the old days then i'd say give it a go!

Su makes an excellent point - many people have left or became less interested (this includes me) because of how the game has been developed/ruined over time. The reason this has occurred is generally down to the selfishness of the individual player, rather than people looking at the benefit of the game as a whole.
I would definately play it.

if this server would be created, then both servers would be boring. lots of people would quit playing main to play origin and lots of people would quit playing main, because there wouldnt be enough players. the only players would be people with too much of free time

To many people have already quit. More follow. The game is loosing players just as fast as it gains. The biggest problem is it's loosing old players currently. Soon, the newest players will leave as the gap between 3year old players and new players stays near the same.

What comes to mind, is massing people and loosing something you can't get back in a day. having a thought process behind your game play. Tactics win instead of mass button clicks.

that'll bring back the importance of having a coordinated alliance. I would play it, definitely.

i would love to play it, i was playing the german server a while back which was the basic game as it started in 2005, it was fun but restricting the language to german meant there weren't really that many players and it didnt' grow very much and i quit but this sounds great

I would play it. There's nothing like waiting for one turn every half hour as your only way of getting turns.

Sounds interesting, but I simply don't have the time.
I would have to choose - my current account or a new one, and given that I still enjoy main I would probably choose the old one.
One think I like about main is the dynamics. It changes regularly, not always for the best, I agree, but it keeps it interesting. The best ways of doing something constantly needs to be re-thought, keeping me awake.

I would play it instead of main, nowhere near enough time for both.
