What about say not using the full 12hours, anyone try it with less time and see if its still the same?
We tested it twice and it didnt affect our normal PPT.



I just set alliance PPT 3 hours of it
and it did not take from normal PPT

has to have been in the alliance 6 months, cannot leave within 6 months these criterai not met = no bonus or loss of bonus[/quote]



my theory is: the alliance leader boosts the bank sizes of the alliance members...

if you leave, or get kicked, you lose bonus.

if you return, or if you were not a member when the boosting was done,

you get bonus, or in the case of a former member, get it back...

this would enable alliances to recruit new members by offering them a large bank size bonus... :)

and while this would suggest a benefit to large warmongering alliances,

it would also benefit large peaceful alliances.


I also suggest that the ACO should be able to change the tax rate,

as high as 5%, maybe 10% later on... :)

So the bank bonus is tied to your alliance not to your account... hmm interesting. I like it

i tried skimming through this to see if anyone else posted...but have people been using this bank increase and its in effect? i know my alliance is down to just myself as the few others i had left after the updates to get the "loneWolf" bonuses..but it doesnt seem to be that the bank increase is working for me. ive clicked that button at least a dozen times and my bank doesnt go up at all...does it not take effect til the next turn, or is it not working cuz im solo in an alliance or what? my alliance PPT works i know that much

You sure it is not 1% of NATURAL bank capacity? As opposed to 1% of TOTAL capacity?

Have a look in the market section, at how much a MT will increase your bank by. It doesn't give you a percent of total, it gives you a percent of natural

Use ONE market turn in exchange for an increase of 10 percent of your natural 'bank' size. For you, as of last turn, this is: X68,759,025,491

so if that is 10%, 1% would still be way noticeable ... ive done it at least 5 separate times with no increase at all

A lone wolf such as myself is baffled by the crazy bonus that alliance players get. They can reach covert levels impossible for me to get on my own (bank size difference is capital CRAZY)

I suppose the intent is that everyone is in an alliance or that overtime alliance are created only for the purpose of creating them, without the players sharing a purpose/bond.

I would indeed like the see the bonus tied to alliance. You leave, you loose it.

It increases "natural" bank size, not your actual bank size.

Changes do not take effect until after the next turn change.

any update on this?

should it be moved to update bugs?

my ACO never saw a difference either...

El Mag was to use 250 - 500 bil naq from our alliance bank toward the bonuses... as a small-scale test...

He never saw any results,

and I certainly never saw anything noticeable.
