    Arrow Evony Please Listen

    There is still a lot of hard feelings (mostly on server 15 and 16) for the merger that happened during Christmas. Here's on post that really says it all:

Given the lack of response afterwards, it's unlikely that anything would've changed the plans. Someone decided that was a great time to do it and didn't think about the ramifications. Additionally nobody has stepped up to the plate to say they're sorry or to just give us back the 3 days of no food consumption that got taken away that the rest of the COMMUNITY will be able to enjoy, since they had the potential for 8 days vs. our 5. These are non-trivial complaints that deserve a response...but will likely not get one. On the bright side, at least they didn't force anyone else to go through a merge until now, after Epiphany / Three Kings Day / Twelfth Night...which is what it should have been for everyone.
    The facts are:

    1) that the short notice did leave many who were vacationing or just taking a couple days off for the holidays unaware that the merger was happening

    2) those that merged were "cheated" out of 3 days of "milk and coockies"

    3) that Evony really should take ownership of their poor timing and acknowledge the "mistake" they made of choosing this particular date for merging the servers.

    4) that those on all other servers should be very thankful it was not their server, stop being selfish, and support those on server 15 & 16.

    Well, I am sorry you feel this way but the e-mail was quite clear. You may have misunderstood the description but most of us understood.

    um no the mail quite specifically stated that each item gives you 1 day no food consumption UP TO 5 which means that you can use up to 5 of these items for their effects

    I've been following the story of the Christmass server merge with some concern.
    The timing of it was indeed very poorly chosen.
    I sure hope Evony won't be doing anything like that ever again.

    i don't really care about milk and cookies, (i wouldn't have paid for it anyway). but what i do care about is that many people didn't even know about the merge because they were on holiday, so they had to restart the game. those of us who were planning on a New Years Eve vacation had to instead spend that time making sure their city survived (or they went on a vacation and never came back)

    This is a great point... many people have invested months and months of their time into developing their character and cities. In theory some could have gone on vacation with an alliance that was looking out for them only to come back after new years and find they are no longer in an alliance, some of their cities have been plundered and their best heroes gone. Nothing like motivation to keep you play (sarcasm)

    I understand the timing of the merger seemed a bit awkward. It may have caused a few annoyances, such as someone else sneaking in and taking your name before you could.

    However, no one on the server "lost out" on anything. Everyone got 5 days of free upkeep, including all players on those servers. The fact that you did not have to click your milk and cookies for 3 of the days does not detract from that simple fact.

    As for coming back from vacation and finding cities plundered -- this can happen any time you leave Evony for an extended period of time and is one of the reasons we implemented a Holiday Mode.

    This is a war game. You will attack and be attacked. You will capture heroes and lose heroes; plunder and be plundered. There is nothing that can happen to you that you can't do to someone else and there's nothing you can lose that you cant replace.

    That is the nature of the game.
