On topic: I suspect that Evony has ambitions to create super-servers but not (currently) the means. As it is, bugs and lag are all over the place, making it unlikely a super-server would work very well (to say nothing of the oft-mentioned problems of HC/HH ownership, etc).
Speculation aside, though, Evony officially denying plans of a super-server is pretty telling, I think. ;)
