I know i've mentioned this on a few other threads, but I think it deserves it's own thread.
Currently, the only real reward in playing Earth Empires is to finish high in NW, that's the way the game should always be won(highest reward), but I think that there should be a lot of other areas for countries to be ranked in(ingame) to give those that have no hope in hell of reaching top NW a chance at winning some other category. these categories should be aggregated weekly, so it gives even more people a chance to win at something(winning is key to people staying)
different categories could be both very few or nearly endless with simple ones such as highest NW for the week, biggest LG for the week, or most attacks for the week, and some more complicated ones with biggest NW jump in the week percentage or actual(get some competition between the destockers), even biggest land jump in thwe week percentage or actual, most successful attacks or defends for the week, best land grabber(where maybe an LG was given points based on different factors that we would call a "good LG" not just most land).
there's loads of different categories that could be done. would be nice to have graphical medals to be given out to the ones who get the top 5(or whatever) in each category each week and overall winner will always be Networth at the end of the reset.
To make it more fun, a country search page could actually list the rewards/medals the country achieved throughout the reset and maybe even give players a place to put their "profile" on their country search page to say things like "if you hit me, i'll retal 5x" or something daft, make the game a lot more interactive than it is. currently the only real interactivity ingame is through ingame messenger.
