My post was just a joke. Your post, you would rather two of the teams stop trying to win? Hordes don't WIN, they are too focused on grabbing the next base. To win, you need to hold what you have and hordes don't defend.

As far as the off hours arena, I'm not crazy about it. I just get into a grove and the message comes up that the arenas locked blah, blah, blah. On the other hand, I'm happy to make that minor sacrifice so that the Euro players can have a good gaming experience. I guess that falls under that "sportsmanship" tag.

But I bet base captures are up.   :D

But remember, the alternative was "I couldn't get into the full arena so I'll whine about it".

Apparently people are playing now.

When the boredom reaches critical mass, people will eventually quit defending and allow the map changes to happen.


Personally, I've seen some of the meanest, knock-down, drag-em-out fights I've seen in quite some time with the off-hours arena and the new base capture system.

 :aok   Agreed.

There is even a fairly moveable hard fought front line that changes back and forth over time on the knit/bish front.  Unfortunately, one country (rooks) gets a "free pass" and that map really needs to go.

Flew 10 sectors last night in a 109 looking for a fight. Arrived at my original location within about 2 sectors of climbing, only to fight that the "fight" had disappeared. Loitered around hoping to spark up something. Said whatever, flew into the bish/nit furball many sectors away, nothing but a bunch of running pansies. Finally they ganged up on me and shot me down.

What a waste of time  :rolleyes:

Keep the off hours system. But please switch the maps. No one is going to win them. Every time a country gets close another country makes a big push and it all starts over.

Actually, Rooks are shafted because they have a three base front they have been pushed back by the Bish so far.
