Just an idea to help take the heat off of alliances like Funkaphilia this round, how about we introduce a series of BOT ALLIANCES???
You could inject say another 120 bots, forming 20 alliances. Then you could split them into 3 tiers of difficulty, strongly correlated with how many are "online" to defend incoming they receive.
For example, a low tier bot alliance would have perhaps 2-3 bots (perhaps randomly selected) to defend any incoming the bot alliance receives.
A mid-tier bot alliance may have 5-6 sending at all times.
A top-tier bot alliance would be able to have all 20 bots on at all times to defend incoming 24/7
And clearly the alliances names would be selected from a pool of past alliance names just like the individual IDs are selected, which could prove entertaining to see
Q1) Would it actually solve the problem of top alliances ganging up on less active/contactable teams around ranks 4-6?
Q2) Could you improve the idea to make things more competitive, that ideally would only require a simple code or algorithm?
