Ok just a question. In main your MS has a ranking. So does your Alliance and Commander. You have a link to go see where every Commander and Alliance is ranked for the entire server. Why no such link for MS? And how hard would it be to make one?

There are 4 links:
Rankings: Which takes you to page 1.
Commander Ranking: Self Explantory
Alliance Ranking: Also Self Explanatory
Rankings By Relations: Basically the accounts you have attacked and the ones that have attacked you.
No MS rankings.

A player and a alliance are known (Ranked) by how powerful they are overall. MS is an extention of that power, so to ask for a MS ranking you would also have to list each strike seperately, each def seperately, each covert and AC seperately. It just makes no sense.
It is also abuseable. Waring alliances can sinple look at the ranking to find MS that are fully repaired by looking at the rankings, where now they have to hunt them with attacks. Also its just another useless piece of information to slow the server.
The massive MS can not fully repair to lower their ranks and such to, as many MS battles that happen each turn the ranking page would be extremely volitile.

I think it would be very interesting to see the power and name's of everyone's motherships, so long as it didn't include the owner's ID or name!
Only downfalls are of course coding for something that is not needed, and the extra lagg it will put on the game

And the abuseability of such a system. Once the MS name is known it can be actively hunted by anyone on the server.

I'm with Lore, more lag/turn is just going backwards. Also, the others should be ranked, and no one would EVER have a defense, look at ranking, pick rank1 defense, mass it, rinse and repeat. Same with most stats (except strike, which is almost untouchable...)
