I'm going to have to disagree with you on the speed issue. Beta, godsend with the 10x speed. Thats too fast though. 3-5x speed would work (Another browser based game offers 3x speed).
Also, Evony was meant to be a GAME, which means its not meant to be played ALL. DAY. LONG.
Take other RTS games for that matter, not just browser based, the CD ones as well. Build times aren't anywhere near as long. Sure, this is for building empires. But it shouldn't take a month to get everything leveled up, just to get it taken and barbed in less than a day. The 'combat server' idea has been around for a while, and the devs are already looking into it for more feedback (see here: http://bbs.evony.com/showthread.php?t=116829 )
Evony is dying. The map sizes are too large for the amount of players on the super servers. If the march time were to be increased, I'm almost positive that some of these servers would spring back to life almost instantly. The reason why they are dying is because of the the two facts that, the map is too large for the amount of people on the server, and the fact that the troop speed is way too slow to travel across said map.
And also, Evony made themselves something they weren't when they removed the attack button from Age II, and made it just another Facebook app.
