COMPLETED CG Imperial Drive for Golconda Port (Trade)

I would rather give them a world with a space port so any size ship can land there, rather than an outpost that can only host medium and small ships. Once this goal is over the federation will get bored and leave them to their fate.
I must admit, being this far behind the Feds with no chance of winning and never did is sapping my motivation to keep delivering. Even getting in the top 25% isn't that much of a motivation because the difference won't be that bad given that we'll probably be on tier 4 or 5 at best by the time the Feds win...
My second ever community goal, but I feel jaded already.

Don't despair.
The Emperor will recognise her own.
Besides we know we were on the right side of this thing, even if the wrong decision was made.
<insert 21st century similarity here>
While we may lose in commodity, we win in community.
I read that in Sisko's voice.
There is an irony about the statement that I like especially in that voice.
Interestingly, if E : D would have a proper PvP system and therefore open-only for CGs, Federation currently wouldn't stand a chance ... last times I checked, space was crammed with Imperial combat pilot.
Hard to believe any hauler would be able to make it through that net in one piece.
Okay, it might just have been coincidence, but I somehow doubt that. And maybe the Federation pilots would have set up some kind of convoy system if that would have been required, and possible.

Imperials do love their narratives.
On one hand complain that Feds win all Combat CGs and on the other claim those puny Federal pilots wouldn't stand a chance in combat.
Actually these numbers tell me that not only does the Federation have more support, these guys also transported 10% more per contributor.

You mean like the tin-can they are currently squeezed into? You'd rather disregard the wishes of the inhabitants of the Golconda when they chose to abandon their initial mission of inhabiting a planet in favour of living as a permanent entity in space aboard their ship, by forcing them to inhabit a planet? The Fed's goal is the only one that is actually doing what the Golconda inhabitants want. They're essentially saying "Your ship is no longer fit for purpose, so we'll build you another one and let you stay here in space".
Seems to me you're more worried about where you can park your Cutter when exploiting them through trading commodities...
There was definitely a missed opportunity here for another alternative: to have the Alliance compete with the aim of building them a new megaship. Still, a ship that can arrive at its destination in moments rather than generations would have presented some interesting choices to the Golconda crew in terms of what they actually want to be in space for.
As for the outcome, I would think that whatever is created would result in a new faction as well as a new outpost, planetary or otherwise. That will mean that, in theory, they can expand and take over other outposts in the system and even spread to new systems. So if people want them to have more facilities, then supporting their faction afterwards can achieve that.

I went all out in the first phase because "it was the right thing to do". This second phase is such a let down for me on many levels!
The worst was adding the double reputation for players from the winning side. As it stands the is a 2:1 Fed:Imp participation, and the delivery levels show this.
Players want to fast track the Federal rank (I assume it being the slowest to achieve).
The only reason I see that the Alliance is not involved, is that they have no ships that require a rank to purchase. So those players that are aligned to the Alliance (through RP) would have to work with their opposing superpowers.
So it just shows that FDev want to hand the newer players those shiney ships hidden behind a rank. what comes next, a super portal in SOL that will transport you to Beagle Point in 5 mins...
Frontier, over the past few months have been watering down any sense of achievement in the game. This game to me was all about the Long Haul to achievement, but is slowly becoming a "Hand it on a plate" game. I could go on but, it would become off topic.

You also forgot that All fed ships will be discounted as well. So Those who want another corvette or another FGS will also back the Feds even if they allready have the ranks to buy them now there is no point if there going to be discounted soon...
Day five
CG may end early due to completion by feds to reach final tier of 15mill..
5276073 / 15000000 Empire
vs
13451293 / 15000000 Feds
Don't count on doing this for all remaining days we passed half way and they are over 13 million allready...

Cant blame anyone for being discouraged seeing that the opposition has twice the numbers.
The tin-can which is several miles long and much bigger then the Fed outpost you're proposing? Yeah ok. Plenty of room for the Golcondians I'm sure.
Oh and I have over 4B CR in the bank, so its not as if I need the credits, let alone 'exploit' them, but your concern about my Cutter parking on double yellow lines is noted and appreciated.

Could have got yourself a nice shiny Corvette with some of those credits
This is exactly the reason, the devs added more stations to the Ceos + Sothis runs to make it harder, but with this double rep bonus it will take no time at all to rank up. The Empire is still insanely easy to rank up between Ngalinn + Mainani
