You get isk for holding a district correct?

Yes, you get isk from the sale of excess clones that go over capacity. However, I imagine a lot of people are going to be transferring clones from one district to drop on another.

I was just curious, my alts in xer cloud, dovafish. And if that corp held a district I think it'd be abut more fun.

You are free to attempt to hold down that district for clone generation, but there are absolutely no guarantees with this system. I strongly imagine that corps are going to send their spies into XERCC in order to divert clone resources for an easier attack. And that possibility needs to exist don't you agree with me?

I suppose, although I think to actually make it a gamble players should be kicked from the corp if the amout they withdraw is less than the previous withdrawee. And that system gets reset every week, and spies should get shanked.

Planet Fight Club, hold onto your Duvolle ARs tightly. You are going to be facing a swarm of Newberries, Protoberries, and every drying berry in the sun.

With just a few less than 40 members at the moment have you even seen the level of activity on the wallet? From top to the bottom of the list, it doesn't even go back a day, when it used to show figures from two months ago when I held it solo.

Additionally there is a 24 corporate stasis wait when you initiate an order to fire someone. Best to let people come and go as they choose.

I wanted a word that represented massive growth but also fit with the other ideas I was trying to establish with the name. XERCC, or King Xerxes I and the behemoth of his multi-ethnic Persian forces of antiquity. I felt tying this reference in would enhance the fun of battles for friendlies and combatants, particularly when a clone pack was dropped on a district with 300 mercs.

The awoxers on our side was a fun touch as well with Pie Queen on the slaughter. We picked up a couple nice modules from farming equipment in our BPOs and Starter fits that whole round. I held no expectation of winning, just taking a fight anywhere I could find it. [sig=hex.dec]4d7920313333372048617830727a2078706c6f747a20522058706f7364206259206c766c2035204330646562386b727a[/sig]
Jadek Menaheim Xer Cloud Consortium 242	Posted - 2013.11.09 15:14:00 - [18] - Quote The only problem I had with last night's battle is only 5 people of our own corp showed up to battle Outer Heaven. I actually appreciate that one or two of those people where there to awox us in our own red line. I like uncertainty, but I want more! We have 5300 available positions in the corp and I am looking to fill them up with every person's alt (or main) on Dust 514. The purpose of increasing size is to increase competition for those 16 PC battle slots. I want to reach a state where the opposing side has no idea what our squad composition and skill sets are going to be for that night of battle. It'll be more fun for us trying to organize the chaos and spot if any spies made it into the game. This experiment may make you laugh or become frustrated to no end; however, this is a meta gaming exercise pure in simple. So enjoy.
