    This actually sums up pretty well why this game is so boring. There are no realistic alternative paths to build your kingdom and the questline ensures that everyone is railroaded into creating cookie cutter fiefdoms. There is but one mode of government, and that sucks.

    Granted, much of the same critique could be directed at Cybernations, but at least there, you have alliance politics.

    Ya know, I used to play this awesome homebrew game like this called thardferr. it was very open and there were many different paths and strategies you could take your kingdom down, but at the same time, it was a guy's hobby, so there was a lot of code work that needed to get done. Last I knew it was still awaiting someone to actually fix some bugs and start another round, but man was it fun.

    So, would it be worth signing up for the HoL aspect,
    or is everybody bailing?

    I'll bail next week as I assume 1 month of inactivity will get me deleted anyway.

    I've bailed. You'll need innate levels of boredom otherwise only found amongst accountants to enjoy this game for any extended period of time.

    Held out until I could build a relief station, now I'm bored.

    I also figured out there are alliance ranks so I promoted DE.

    Which means that you promoted a member that has practically left the game, but thanks anyway.

    Well I didn't want to promote someone for actually doing something valuable for the community, since when did I do that?

    True. Meritocracy is for the deluded masses.

    Got to rank 700 in two days and decided I didn't want to win the internet so I have stopped playing.

    Played it over the course of three days, and then lost interest. Same happened with My Brute. Haven't overplayed a browser game since early-days RuneScape. Probably for the best that I don't become addicted to one though. I waste enough time on games as it is.

    Hey Minuos how is the weather over there? I hope it is warming up because I'll be in England in under a week today.

    It's actually been quite warm, and hot at times, for the last couple of weeks or so. I'm in the Northwest and for the first time in months I can go outside without a jacket. What possessed you into wanting to come here though?

    Used to teach at a school in Buckinghamshire about 5 years ago. Catching up with some old friends, ex girlfriends and my brother.
