was doing a kr in alliance server and spamming the attack again button. after doing 15+ attacks i notice a message at the top saying something about losing additional readiness if i make another attack within x seconds. i know this suggestion was being discussed and i'm indifferent about it but wtf at just implementing it in the middle of a reset w/o letting anyone know

yeah I agree though.

Not everyone reads AT regularly, especially at the membership level.

Changes mid-set should be mass ingame mailed to ALL countries by the admin.

the last time this happened i was more annoyed because i disliked the change more

it was the stealth buff on luck with a nerf (perhaps not stealth) on decay

actually i think it may have been one nerf then a second nerf

but an announcement is a bare minimum, when its on one forum and not all why not put it on announcement to begin with

i understand this is a live test rather than a fixed change so its not as bad in changes during a set usually are

I don't think major changes like this should happen mid set.

I think this is a free game and unless you're contributing to it in some way shape or form, you can't complain about things you don't like.. well, you can complain.. but so what? You get what you pay for.

PS I like the change and I think it should have been brought in sooner.

I don't understand your logic. I'm contributing by playing this game and offering my feedback and suggestions. isn't that the whole point (well, half) of this forum?

also, I never even said I disliked the change. in fact, I specifically said I was indifferent about it

I don't think you understand what contributing means.

Just playing and offering feedback does not pay for the hardware/power consumption or offer incentive to the developers to write game code.

actually, it does pay for the hardware/power consumption. Based on their current model, it is the ONLY thing that generates revenue to pay for these things.

i don't think people understand that anything that was released re: attacking changes was done because a cache value didn't reset properly when other code was made live.

no one has even commented on my food/cash alerts if you're within 25 turns of running out and that if you mouseover your food/cash values in the topbar, it will tell you what your current net income/net food is and how long until you run out (if you're running a deficit)

and that's a cool change by itself :p

Change it to 3 or 5 turns please. 25 is waaaaaaay too long. OR change the font color at least for the red/pink whatever that color is.

didn't even notice the mouse-over. That'll save me a lot of clicks on the advisor page.
