there is alot of ppl out there who get into the game and ascend and get hit with the "all ur supers are gone" and to be honest it is a learning curve in the game cause it makes them join an alliance and ask ppl how to do it but can be unfair if the person in question had a 10mill AS 60%+ massable. my idea is this
first asscension prior: no supers lost
second ascension prophet: half suppers lost
and from messiah and above all supers lost, this gives the player a chance to cop on to what he is doing get an alliance and learn how to play the game properly and love his massable %
i couldent find a post simaler to this so if there is one ill take this down and i know i cant spell so all comment bar the fact i cant spell are welcome

Or. People could actually read what it says when you hit the "Ascend" button, and rethink their strategy.
Like you said, it's a learning curve. Removing the need to learn at the lower levels causes a vacuum of experience and knowledge at the level where it does come into effect. So after adding this, another player will come and request another ascension be free of loss of supers. And the next. And the next.. and so on.

You know where I am going with this.
This isn't a game to play by your onesies.

Make a few friends, and the one who doesn't tell you how to set up your account deserves a massing.

I refer to my prior point regarding friends telling you a thing or two about setting up your account. You don't become a 500M AS unascended newbie by not being in touch with anyone..

Anyway. If you do mess up, good learning moment. I can assure you, the learning curve for losing stuff is much better than the learning curve for .. well .. the rest.

[spoiler]Ascension
Ascension is an evolved state of play, on both the 'main' level, and the ascended level. It opens up a new game (ascended.stargatewars.com) as well as altering your main account.
Requirements: To ascend you need a minimum of 1000 Glory and Reputation (G & R) points. These points are gained by being in the top 2% of all players in the rankings. (The top 2% of active players, so this number may be slightly different than multiplying the lowest rank by 2%). Each turn you are in this ranking, you get G & R points -more for the top .2%. Additionally, there are minimum stat requirements based on your unit production (and a minimum unit production) that are disclosed when you reach 1000 G & R points. At that point a new icon will present itself on your base page, and you can click that for more information.
Ascending Although it is explained in greater detail at the time, it is common knowledge that ascending uses almost all of your realms resources to accomplish. Your weapons, technology, UP and covert levels, all units (except lifers), mothership, naquadah etc are all used up on ascending (and converted into ascension points (AP) for your ascended realm). You are left with your lifers, a 'free' supporter status, and a new evolved race based on your previous race. It is a new beginning.
ReAscending: This works exactly as ascending does, except instead of getting a new account in the ascended realm, your existing account is 'powered up' and your main account gets additional bonuses. Main account bonuses are 5% per ascension (up to 30%) in each of the normal race stats, a different more powerful weapon set, and a unique technology that can call down your ascended being to assist you in this worldly battles -some of the time.[/spoiler]Its not that bad, just needs updating

And if you setup your account before getting in contact with others (usually through the market or alliance requests i would imagine)
