So..

So now that this era is over, at last, a couple of questions.

Will the next era suck as well and will the winner again be the one who bought the most USSs, like the past 3 eras? In that case, will naq selling for $ be allowed again, or will those who wish to spend money be only allowed to do so through ingame market, on accounts of P2P trades not allowing everyone to have the same chance of winning (despite ingame USSs and FSSs being the same, the only difference being the money recipient)?

Note - I am against all kinds of money trades, I just wish for clarification since P2P money trades were disallowed to allow for all players having an equal chance of winning and at the same time USSs and FSSs gave much reduced benefits and were actually supporter statuses, not "buying resources and #1 under a supporter disguise" statuses like they have been before, but in the past 3 eras USSs and FSSs suddenly again became ticket to #1 under a supporter disguise.. So seeing how that has changed, I am merely wondering whether the USSs and FSSs will again be actually really just supporter statuses and not #1 tickets, or whether they'll remain a #1 ticket (and in this case I fail to see why P2P money trades would be banned). Game cops exist to be given evidence as to whether something was a feed or a money trade, so no harm done there.

At the same time, it does warm my heart to see The Divine topping the average member power ranking yet again, despite about half of us not even playing for real this era :)

Bugs were abused so people were massed, the winner didn't buy **Filtered** for USS.

To be honest you could have been inactive the majority of the era and only play the last few weeks and still done well. Bit annoying to have someone play the last few weeks and be at the same level as someone that has been very active for the whole time. Surely it shouldn't be like this?

Yep Ben I know.. But if it weren't for bugs, none of non $ players stood a chance against anyone who bought USSs and you would have secured your victory in the 1st month already.

Ronon Dex - yep you could. Why? Because the game was so imbalanced. That's what you get when someone with little experience takes an old era, redesign a few features with features from NG server to present it as a new one and thinks it will be balanced and ignore the opinion of those who saw it wouldn't be. But rest assured, those who bought USSs have had an enormous advantage over those who didn't.

I doubt it.. Unless, somehow, Jason gets the Q keys back for himself.
