suggestions

This is just a suggestion to increase activity during the first couple of days of a new month. I don't know how this could work exactly, but possibly a 3x multiplier on energy generation that scales down to zero on the third day could give players an additional incentive to be active on those days.

Reverse crescendo, you gain energy at a 150% rate early, and it scales down to 0% on the final day.

Someone will tell me why it’s a silly idea

That was sort of where I started with the idea but I believe it makes dumpers too strong, which I why I was putting forth a 3 day limit. Even that might be too much.

It'd be a buff to scoring normally too since switching targets every 2 fights is just as annoying as needing to wait for dumpers to accrue energy to avoid relogging every few fights. I think there's some merit to the idea, plus there's some room to play with balance-wise between it and crescendo (even if crescendo is an abomination that needs to be purged).

Yeah. Another way to do this is just give everyone some amount of energy (1000) or a days worth of energy generation at the start of every month, whichever is lower.

Where's Zal at to suggest removing EPH, and having people attacking just gain energy, cs style. :D

The aim of this suggestion is merely to make the first day of a month more active. At the moment it is essentially the least active scoring day of the month, which feels like a wasted opportunity.
