Today, I finally listed in the number 1 slot in the Unification War's Most Popular Empire Contest. Contest runs on weekdays only and player wins with 15 minimum clicks.

Here's the last five winners:

12 March : LailaTheNight, starfoxy, Gantz03, Ismar
09 March : cotempty, HOPELESS
08 March : Detti
07 March : XcarnageX, Gantz03
06 March : TheGuard, Shindo, TheTitan

How the contest works ?

Each time someone click on my vassal link, I will be given a point. This point is accumulated (no expiry) until I have sufficient points to reach the top 5 empires. Usually, a player only needs about 20-30 clicks so its not that hard to get to the top 5. My fellow fed mates start the clicks last Saturday.

Number #1 Wins 70,000 planets and 2nd to 5th wins 50,000 planets! It's bad timing though, because I decided to do planet and system restructures on my empire at 2 o'clock this afternoon to upgrade Parthenon and dark systems and I still don't receive yet my prize. The bad news is this, according to the Game's Rules and guidelines no. 2: "When receiving the prize, the winner's points will be reversed, if you have 10 points it will be -10."

Since I received 33 clicks from friends and fed mates, my empire will then have -33 points upon receipt of my prize (70k planets).

I spent the whole afternoon upgrading my latest dark system to level 10 (X) and a Parthenon system to level 30 (X) while Junjun was busy with his classmates working on their amplifier project. It's sound was working properly when they tested it with our videoke.

Meanwhile, my daughter left early this morning to represent her school in the Quiz Bee Competition but unfortunately, they arrived few minutes late and were unable to join in the said competition. She felt bad when she arrived home and blamed her school mate for being late. I knew she reviewed a lot and was ready for it.

Anyway, day was great in general. Randy and I watched Deal or No Deal even we're busy playing Unification Wars. My mic sometimes didn't work but, I was thankful we're able to pray the rosary before he left for work. Effective today, they adjusted their time back to standard time (minus 1).

Randy logged out at 9:40 pm, an hour earlier and, I was supposed to go to bed but, since am still levelling up Parthenon system, I have to finish it before my Damage Protection (DP) expires at 03:54 PM tomorrow.

Now that I won the Empire's Popularity Daily Contest, Spartacus, our Fed Leader assigned Randy's empire as the next one to be clicked.
