Themed BFR Rounds?

[Shadow I]

If you choose yes, please elaborate on your choices with suggestions. Some suggestions are:

Forced clans
No mages
No more than half of your land on any one building type
Break the emp (admin controlled super-account that does not use turns)
Forced clans with admin controlled emps on each one
Doubled race bonuses (both positive and negative)

[prog frog]

Sounds like fun. I would especially like to see:
No Mages
Forced Clans
Break the Emp.
and Doubled bonuses.

Of course the theme should be announced well in advance. Like, say, the middle of the round before the next theme.
I would like normal rounds every once in awhile though.

[Tetigustas shadowson]

multiple choice theme

Forced clans with a minimum of 4 members

No more than 1 mage per clan

race slots in clan 8 races 8 members!
if your not of the right race and that member slot is full 'tuff cookies'

No more than half of your land on any one building type

Break the emp (admin controlled super-account that does not use turns)

Doubled race bonuses (both positive and negative)

limited troop sell in all markets!

no reserves!

no bank!

This is a good idea and all, but I would focus more on raising the playerbase than extra things for those currently here.

[Shadow I]

I suspect that more variety might go a long way toward raising the player base. If there is nothing interesting to do, chances are players won't stick around in the first place.

[maddog]

dunno if this could be coded how about if u break top person a small portion of their troops desert and join ur army depending on what troop type is used to break them. Maybe it could be incorporated into Break the emp (admin controlled super-account that does not use turns) event or something

[Shadow I]

I would like to play a forced clan round where people who are killed automatically start over on the side of the person who killed them

Land dropping would have to be disabled for the round.

I like themes!!! I would suggest possibly some of the following:

TOTAL WAR (no clans)

CLANWARS (choose a clan and stay there. You could incorporate the race slots that Tetigustus suggested into this theme so that each clan is approx. equal. This would also encourage variety in your teammates [you would have to lock all clans open to "encourage" vets to allow noobs on their clans...first come, first served]).

CLANSWAP (this is where you could incorporate Shadow's idea of changing clans once you are killed [you would be locked into your opponents clan and unable to work against him...the only problem I can see with this is that the most successful clan will have alot of trapped members.] Like Shadow says, we have to disable land dropping in order to prevent discontented slaves (hahaha) from rebelling against their masters.

I also like the BREAK THE OOBER EMP idea and the DOUBLE BONUS round (the one with doubled race bonuses).

I guess I am coming up with appropriate names for some of the other suggestions as well as making my own.

Philip what was your vote on this poll?

That's me. I think so, but I'm not sure.

Ask Ally
if it is.

Philip says BUMP

This was never really adressed after all the interest it generated. The current prize rounds are fun, but not quite what most people had in mind I think.

Yeah, When was this exactly?What is your real name?

[Death]

I would like to see a random forced clan round. Like Duels, but not stupid. And I say stupid because it was basically just stay online and hit F5 last time, next time it comes around I will eat my words.

[Shadow I]

The thing about forced clans is that there needs to be a goal beyond killing the other side or it becomes stupid. Break the emp is always a good one.
