We plan to push new players towards Express instead of Tournament which means that we cannot have two off days a week. Which of the following solutions do you prefer?

1) Leave Express as a 5 day round but reduce the days between rounds from 2 to 0. Each round would no longer end on Sunday.
2) Change Express to a 7 day round with approximately the same number of overall turns as now. Each round would still end on Sunday.

As a "new" player (closing in on a yr i think), I'd prefer to go with option one. Express is one of my favorite servers. It goes fast enough that you can try different stuff and if it's no good...well it will reset in a few days. Currently I play most of the main servers.

As the oldest player of express I’d prefer option #1.

Thank you for you service

From a moderator perspective, I'd prefer option 2. When people do stupid stuff needing mod attention it's typically on the last two days, so I check in more often when I can. A moving end day would make it slightly harder to remember. No strong opinion either way, though.

Option 1…Could we also change back bushel base price to 35? Most people don’t want to play farmer now. Its nuked the FF strat and hurts destocking net with techers…the records reflects 35 so not sure why that was changed. Its done more harm then good.

I like a day off on Mondays. No I don't run Multiple's in Express ! Prime evil has all ready checked several times, all he can find is two, players from one town. Maj1 is a long time player, here , and because he is my neighbor I won't any hit live players that he hits, that's double teaming, I avoid it , but spy ops, we often cross paths, nothing I can do to avoid that. I know lot of you guy's are netters and make great targets allways low defenses. This is a war game, so you have to defend your selves, and stop whining about being attacked, and stop accusing me of cheating, I am not ! My biggest complaint is when GDI kicks in , attacks end, unless your at war, at that point you can cash , or tech, for the last four hours only, but the the bots keep growing in the stats, and I watch my country's do a free fall on Sundays, it's why I have never seen a top ten finish. Oh one more thing I am not stupid enough to war with two live players in Express.

I would like 3-4 rounds each week over a 2.5 day period. Change up the end times, and some ppl prefer weekends, some weekdays. Bake the same amount of turns in - so new turns every 2.5 0r 3 mins, whatever it ends up being.

I am calling my suggestion, Option 3 - the best option.

Hi BaDonkaDonks. I just saw this. Not sure why it was originally deleted by another moderator. I think it was a "Fat Finger" deletion. Not saying the other mod has fat fingers. But when scrolling on the phone and modding... the delete button for the forum posts is in a spot that is just "not convenient". I will undo it. :)

Hm, difficult one for me. But I'd have to go with option 1 as well.

I still believe an even faster paced server would be nice as well, but focused on killing instead of netting ;-)

What about clan express? Like once a month there's a clan express server. Clans of 3 to make it interesting. All human players have to be in a clan to leave protection.

When Team tried to be small groups working together it just degenerated immediately into Alliance 2.0, Express would do the same.
