Why is there a need for this plan? What are the creators of this plan hoping to accomplish?

Hi Sam S - The sector is in trouble. Is there a NEED for this plan? You will have to decide for yourself. People are becoming inactive faster than we can replace them and most of the alliances that have been active since the merger are pretty tired of the same old swapping of nodes. With all the tourneys and RIOTs many more players are doing SIMs and PvP. The hope, and the supporters acknowledge it is the hope, of this plan is to give everyone still active a chance to do whatever their personal preference(s) is. We have come up wit what we feel is a really very good model for the ARENA. It will create balanced teams, 100% inclusion and some real strategy in both team building and map play .. starting with location selection. Those who will be away for vacation or business just will not apply. Everyone else will be invited and smaller and mid level players will be able to level up w/o putting their alliance at risk. Should this make everyone happy? I am sure it will not but I honestly believe that given a chance it will be well received and revitalize the sector.

It sounds like a fair plan to try. I'm not trying to attack the plan, it just that from my perspective I've heard a lot about the plan and not a lot about why the plan is needed. Is there a way to judge the success of the plan? Probably there is not, at least not an objective way, but this might be something to think about.

Sam .. the only way I can think of is for players to try it, no matter if they think it a great or awful now, evaluate the experience and share their experience here and / or in chat. Those who choose not to try it might be proven right if those who try come to feel it was not a success but, IMO, only trying will tell. That's pretty subjective. I suppose a potential objective means to know would be if applications for the ARENA start growing or more players joining the sector and staying. If anyone a more practical idea, I hope they will share it.
