Anyone play this?
It's a newish browser game similar to ogame.
Anyway if someone is playing there's a few of us on the Gamma server, about to create the EVE-Online alliance.

You can't, you can only pillage and occupy others.
I'd recommend for the start to focus on your academy and town hall a bit, while researching up to wealth in economy so you can get your luxury goods.
Also remember to click the stack of wood on your island view and sent workers there to gather it.
Once you have wealth researched you can do the same for the luxury good.
Btw. once you get to foreign cultures under seafearing you can build an embassy which allows you to join alliances :)

I was forced to try this out, and hey, it is pretty neat! Nice way to spend a few minutes on every day.

Won't have time to reply to this thread all the time, so poke me in the game if you have questions with a diplomacy message, I'm at 69.75 island Arayos.
You'll recognize my town name ;)

I was going to join up but a new Pro round of Oil Empires starts in 2 days and that gets my attention this time.
Maybe after this round I will try something different but I have been saying that for 5 rounds now

We'll have a mailing list ingame as soon as the alliance is up.
2 current issues with that:
1: to join an alliance you need an embassy (please refer to this FAQ link: http://s3.ikariam.org/index.php?view=researchDetail&researchId=1040, if you set it to research sea fearing it will automatically do the prerequisites too)
2: joining alliances is currently broken, although should be fixed soon from what the forums look like.

Well the alliance is up, people are starting to join.
Please note accepting you in to the alliance might take a while, as the amount of members that can be accepted is limited by diplomacy points.
This means that for each member I accept, I need to upgrade one of my embassies.
I'm off course fully concentrating on this, and my palace so I can get more embassies in colonies, but it does take up quite a lot of resources and time, so there may be delays in getting everyone in, my apologies.

8 is easy, you get 3 diplomacy points for a lvl 1 embassy, thus having just 2 at level 2 gets you 8 people.
I'm working on getting enough resources to upgrade my palace for a 3rd colony at which point I can build another embassy and get even more diplo points.

Well it seems to be going quite well.
We've got about 20 people in thus far, and I'm spending every single moment upgrading embassies and trying to get more resources for upgrading the palace to get colonies for more embassies so we can process the remaining applications.
Krymus will get you in as soon as I get more diplomacy points ready :)

This is what happens when GM's drag people into dark alleys: ISD starts playing.
So here I am: Chroweios[85:67] > Jita
About to embark to a new colony soon and heading towards the all powerful EvE Alliance shortly after.
Any donations welcome *giggles* but I already received marble from our beloved GM's.

Originally by: syphurous Edited by: syphurous on 20/03/2008 00:42:40 Would be good to have a webpage with all the cells on it and a mouse over that shows who's on each cell so its easier to get an understanding of whos close to who. I would do this myself but I'm a designer, not a coder and this sort've thing would be better being generated from a data base.
The map starts at 1:1 and ends at 99:99 the outside ring being water. Then just put colored cells (Blue Glass, Grey Marble, Yellow Sulpur, Violet Wine) for those islands occupied by Eve Players. Mouse overs would popup with player name and city, possibly expanded to cover alliance.
Is there a colony cap of any kind ?
As you said, this is only doable using a DB. As much as you are a designer, noone writing code will sit down to enter the purely visible map of that game into a DB on their own (reinventing the wheel anyone?) as long as the game keepers do not release the data (all bless EvE for our API and DB downoads), noone will code interactive maps of ever changing data.
