Lets finally see a game with no real limits. The limits should only be imposed by the system resources and common sense. If you don't mind waiting 5 minutes between turns as the computer chugs through and iteration then so be it. I'm usually so deep/lost in running a sprawling empire that a reasonable wait would not even be really noticed. But people who are type 'A' can choose a smaller number of stars for a faster response time. I can&#

I don't know about this limiting people's access to interesting information about something they love. Why does it matter when you became a founder or even if you are a founder? We are a community. I would vote to throw it open to everyone. I'm very fortunate to be working right now and to be someone who can participate financially in the development projects I love; like Gal Civ III and projects on Kickstarter. I participate because they are
