Much like the rest of smoke jag domain, Bro Cluster is like pissing in the wind. Sad to say until there is a huge increase in players it will continue like this or get worse from burn out.

Probably over the next few days as contracts from those who got a 7-day and didn't break early expire. Some might come over.

I wouldn't hold my breath, though... especially as just as some may come over, others may leave. :/

I'm pretty sure [BSM] is going to re-up for an extended contract. I think most of us in this group want to see some reward for the effort expended and are prepared to go down to the bitter end. Maybe the SM does stand for sado-masochist afterall. Plus it's in our very nature to make the plight of the impossible underdog, possible.

see you planet side once I rinse this broccoli custard out of my heatsinks.

Hehee... I joined the Jags 'cause they are the underdogs (due to overwhelming IS numbers).

You know... "Challenge Accepted™" :)

We ran a 10 man early this afternoon. Before we had to split we managed to put in 1 attack/3 defense... all wins.

Have been brain storming why were getting mostly hold territory matches instead of attacks and from what I can tell it's because a match is starting up every min or more. As soon as a hold territory match concludes another will be available to play. So ones a unit defends it they'll have to defend it again. Meaning a 12 person unit is likely not going to make any progress except for controlling 1 zone out of 11. To take full control of a planet we'll likely need 11 units of 12 dropping to control each zone re-queing for matchs as fast as possible. That's 132 people. If we only need 6 zones of a planet we'll only need 6 units of 12 re-queing which is 72 players. If the zones have multiple matches being fought over one zone IDK how many player's we'll need.

On broccoli cluster I've seen the que numbers drop below 60+ while kurtians defenders did not. That's likely our problem but if we can maintain a perfect winning score with 6 or 11 units maybe we'll get the planet.

Simple numbers. They have more. We need capable warriors. In more numbers. I do not see pgi's minority rewards program helping much. Not to mention getting pinched or headed off by cgb seems to continue.
without more heads, or assistance from another source I am at a loss how we will make any appreciable headway gaining planets.

Ideas anyone?

Ask PGI for a loyalty bonus for understaffed factions... like +15% to both C-bills and Loyalty Points per win until things "even out" (either by players or success).

loyalty bonuses (minority rewards) may or may not attract more players. If it does likely not in any significant numbers. The recent bump pgi did does not seem to have made many people want to come over to this camp. Maybe it is to soon to tell though

We are already getting a +100% payout bonus. Instead of getting a 25% bonus on our actions in the match, which would have been far more attractive.

Also: Steiner 228 seems to drop on broccolli atm., obviously they can't handle the Jade Falcons ;)

The newly formed merc unit I am in was dropping there today as well since we have a Smoke Jag contract right now. 8 wins in the 8 matches I dropped there.

GSR changed from Steiner to CSJ yesterday, and had been dropping exclusively on Broccolli Custard.

It's good to finally get constant matches.
