Idea

For round 10 would it be at all possible for each person to change what they actually send from their planet? ie:


Incoming hostile <whatever> from <whoever>.


So, if you were so inclined, it could be:

Incoming hostile Elephants from <whoever>.

etc.



Perhaps even just changed once at the start of the round on sign-up or being allowed to be changed anytime throughout the round? Either would be good.

Better this than all the other rubbish changes planned for Round 10 Plus it would be quite amusing.

It's not a case of needing it, it's making the game more fun.


Like, 56893 Hostile Kittens Incoming. Ahh, the fun.

It's a damn space game... you don't send pokémon, powerrangers or elephants to your target, but spaceships.

Now, go play outside again children and let the grownups play with the interweb.

Yeah so that they NEVER know who sent at them thats the idea? I doubt that gets implimented. I wonder how fleet names will be put in Incoming hostile fleet "name" with x ships from x:x:x ?

I wonder
can't wait to see

It's not necessary at all. It might just add some humour to the game.

No. As planet name and coords will remain the same. Only the 'ships' bit would be editable.

I thought it was all database manipulation. Thanks for the tip-off

Scouse's idea was the first real enhancement to PA I heard of since the flying toasters. And noone grown up enough to know the difference between night and day would ever think about complaining about bringing a bit "fun" into a "game".
