This came up in forums... Not sure if it is already taking place but if not, here's a suggestion for you...
20/06/2007 20:35:04 ‹chaos› does fame actually lower you defenses? I think not but...
20/06/2007 20:35:09 ‹chaos› it should
20/06/2007 20:35:28 ‹csstriker› I think it does
20/06/2007 20:36:20 ‹chaos› good, go run your fame to 500 and let's find out rofl
20/06/2007 20:36:27 ‹csstriker› haha
20/06/2007 20:36:32 ‹csstriker› it might not lower it
20/06/2007 20:36:39 ‹csstriker› but it sways the 50/50 I think
20/06/2007 20:36:48 ‹chaos› heck, I would still need 5 more cannons and crew
20/06/2007 20:37:17 ‹chaos› I think it should lower the attack and defense capability
20/06/2007 20:38:47 ‹chaos› time for a new forum discussion?
20/06/2007 20:39:11 ‹csstriker› haha
20/06/2007 20:39:12 ‹csstriker› lower defense, sure
20/06/2007 20:39:15 ‹csstriker› lower attack, hell no
20/06/2007 20:39:27 ‹chaos› y?
20/06/2007 20:39:48 ‹csstriker› then once you get fame, whats the point of hitting a lot of pirates
20/06/2007 20:39:54 ‹chaos› of course it would cause even more people to keep low fame
20/06/2007 20:40:04 ‹csstriker› you'll start to fail, which would build more fame, and more failures
20/06/2007 20:40:16 ‹chaos› right
20/06/2007 20:40:20 ‹chaos› good point
20/06/2007 20:40:29 ‹chaos› but defenses
20/06/2007 20:40:34 ‹chaos› I like it
20/06/2007 20:40:39 ‹csstriker› defense is fine with me
20/06/2007 20:41:57 * darkmyst9 quit (timeout)
20/06/2007 20:42:34 ‹chaos› well, as for the noob protection, it might give some of the newer player (as well as veterans) more of a chance to even the field
20/06/2007 20:46:11 ‹darkmyst9› I like the idea
