You tell that to badidol
I always thought that too untill I read the Discord post replay when he was apparently on Vacation and had to come in to answer a question about this subject because another Member of Staff said it stayed the same.
BTW: I never said anything about the Miracles/Monuments/Wonders changing - Just the Resources.
He definitely said this in the german discord:
"der merge Ƥndert an der map: nix "
= "The merge changes on the map: Nothing"
-
Correct and yet Wrong as well!
Per Badiol, (Discord post) each server when they start up will RANDOMIZE the resources at startup - so, on the new server, the same Island will not always have the same resources as the old server! Not to mention you will have 5 - 13 OLD servers merging into each of the 2 or 4 new servers, meaning that there other players that were on those exact SAME coordinates as you but on a different server.
Nope, that's wrong. The map on all servers for both miracles and resources will stay the same as it is now.
The location of the old temples on server 1 will change and will be the same as the layout of the current servers.

Dear players,
the old man has to apologise.
The community brought up the topic of miracle and res distribution on the map in the wake of the upcoming merge.
I am sorry to admit: the old man remembered it wrongly.The maps are not randomized, as I said, they are the same on every island. You were right, I was wrong.
I checked with developers and the facts are, this time for certain:
- the maps are the same on every server (miracles and resources)
- the merge does not change that
- the ONE AND ONLY exception are war servers, where the miracle Ares is replaced by a random miracle
Again, I'm sorry for the confusion. I'll go take my vitamins now.

Thank you for the clarification.

I have a question.
When people will start coming, how they will know the positions of others, to send a unit? Many people will come to 50:50 (and all other cords) and if the island is full, they will be moved automatically.. only system knows where
Or they will start sending units, randomly, to everyone in order just not to move?
No matter what your current coordinates are, the system will place you at those coordinates again. If you know your opponent's coordinates in advance, by sending troops to their city at the same coordinates on the new server
So how is this possible with multiple servers moving to one server? What if someone from a different server has the same coords as one of my towns?

On the day of your merger you will have the OPTION to Merge, as will the players on other servers in your same community.
As you click to MERGE you are placed into a QUE!!! The first into the que gets placed 1st then the 2nd and so forth
The game will TRY to place you on the same Island if possible, if not then it will try to place you on the SAME type of resource island close to your original location as possible!
That is why, you need to log in and merge A.S.A.P (As Soon As Possible) to get the best locations possible. The later you merge the better chance of NOT getting what you want and thus making you have to use the FREE Island Relocations tokens that you get (1 for each City/Polis/Town that you own)

So what about all the bots and scripts people use to placehold towns? Will they be rampant right off the bat like they are on all the other servers? This is my third merge i have been forced into and i spent good money moving towns to islands and im gonna lose that. No wonder 40% of our 200 members in my alliance are going to leave the game. No wonder 30 of our members that played for 15+ years have already went inactive. When I said perseus was losing people because the unlimited upgrades made the game unplayable people said no....that server is well populated. Well if we have to merge again I guess I was right.
oh,and the game is unplayable unless you have super high upgrades and the guys with dozens and dozens of illegal multis had no problem upgrading to the 20's and some 25. Even worse when they have a billion gold and half a million gens. I now tell our smaller members when I see them getting attacked on my gen page to just v.mode or they will farm you and the smaller honest players pay the price because GF cant figure out how to end the hiesenberg bots and scripts.

Don't torture you head.
According to some .. rumors, there are scripts also for the merge for moving bots and accounts to specific times.
We both know, where is the exit. You don't play a game any more. This is .. bussiness. The same.. what is happening in the world.

They would have to have a script to click on the button to initiate the merge, choose the correct server and then click the button to merge itself
If there is such a script - I do not know where to get it - but would like to have it so I do not have to be up EARLY to do my own merger on March 25th
Remember: They give you FREE Town Relocations, you do NOT have to buy them, so that you can move to a better location if you do not like where the game placed you.
- I still have 11 from the last merger; did not have to use them when I was moved to where I am currently at
- I will get 12 more during this merge for a total of 23 FREE Town relocations available to me
This will be my third merge as well -- From Lambda to Ny (past), then Eurydike (present) and then to Medusa (future)

If you pay attention to the merge time, decide to be available at the merge window, and merge ASAP, you will simply get placed where you already are.
If you don't like where you end up, you can always graveyard and merge on your own terms later.
-
And if you choose the graveyard option, you have a wider choice of which server to go to.

For those thinking about Graveyarding during the Merge
Dear players,
we have added a clarification about the non-active accounts and their move to Asphodel, please feel informed:
FAQ
What happens if I donāt log into the game during the migration period?
If you do not move by the end of the merges, you will be transferred automatically.Accounts that have not been active for 60 days or more will be moved to Asphodel after the voluntary migration period.
You have to wait out the 14 day "Choose your server" period before you will be sent to the Asphodel server if you are Inactive for more than 60 days otherwise the game will pick a server for you!
-
And if you choose the graveyard option, you have a wider choice of which server to go to.
There will only be 3 US servers after the Merge. Minotaurus (opened February 20th), Medusa (New recipient) and Themis (New recipient)
ALL other servers will be merged into Medusa and Themis
-
Question. if someone is slowboating you will it cause you to not be able to merge?
-
Question. if someone is slowboating you will it cause you to not be able to merge?
I don't believe this is covered in the FAQ. Here's what I have. I'd assume the question is in bold. Here's what I believe will happen: your original account is banned and put into vmode. Any attacks that are in progress might go through and hit your town (similar to if you vmode while an attack is incoming) but additional attacks are not possible.
I can't confirm, I've never engaged in this type of behavior before a merge. What is clear is if I'm attacking you and I merge, then my fleets are cancelled and returned to my originating towns.
----
Should I have a lot of big fleet movements, upgrades, etc. running when starting a merge?
No, as with every transfer (and maintenances as well btw), running events will often be cancelled and then the invested resources might be gone. That's why we keep saying not to have bigger events running before a maintenance or a transfer. As a few players seem to have not remembered this for the merge, here's your reminder.
Will I receive a premium relocation for a town on a premium slot?
Yes, you will.
What will be merged?
Weāre going to merge together multiple servers and communities. All of the servers and communities affected are listed in the table at the bottom.
What happens if I donāt log into the game during the migration period?
At the start of the server merge, all accounts will be placed in vacation mode. If you do not move by the end of the merges, you will be transferred automatically.
Accounts that have not been active for 60 days or more will be moved to Asphodel after the voluntary migration period.Can I still create new accounts on the old servers?
Yes, however this will only be possible for a limited time. Registration for new accounts ends about a week before the merge.
Can I move my towns to an island of my choice?
You receive the same number of Town Relocation items as the number of towns you own at the time of migrating.
I have more accounts than there are target servers. Can I have multiple accounts on the same server?
Yes, the rules for multis remain unchanged, and you can have up to 11 accounts.
What happens to the resources I have invested in island buildings such as Helios Towers, mines and miracles on my original server?
The resources will be refunded and placed in your inventory. For Helios Towers, youāll receive an item in your inventory.
Can I redeem these resources any other way?
No, the resources will be given to you in two bundles which are tied to donations. They cannot be redeemed like ordinary resource bundles.
What happens to the troops/buildings/ships I currently have under construction?
Their status will be transferred to the target server and construction will continue as normal.
Do I have to use my Town Relocations immediately?
No, the Town Relocations do not expire.
What will happen to my capture points and crew?
The crew is transferred to the target server, capture points are lost during transfer.
What will happen to my alliance?
The alliance itself (not its members) will be transferred together with the leader. As player in an alliance, you will have to coordinate among yourselves. Once on the new server, members will have to rejoin the alliance.
What will happen to Cultural Goods Treaties?
These will disappear with the merge. However, it will be much easier to find new partners on the more populated servers following the merge. The Festival of Worlds event will also boost this initially with various bonuses.
What happens if multiple players/alliances with the same name move to the new server?
It is not possible for multiple players/alliances to share the same name. If a name is already in use on the server, then you will receive a new name and/or be requested to change your (alliance) name.
What happens to troops that are en route or battles that are taking place at the time of the merge?
Battles will be canceled, and troops/fleets returned to their home towns on the new server.
I have large amounts of resources en route in Freighters. What will happen to them?
The resources will be returned to your home town.
What happens to my donations?
Donations cannot be transferred. You will however receive tokens for your donations on the target server.
Is there anything special I need to do if I have purchased premium content?
No, these will be transferred to the new server and can continue to be used as normal.

I was referring to after the merge, when the dust has settled, if someone isn't happy with where they ended up they could go through the traditional graveyard process and have more options than just the US community.
Quote from Splinaexcept if you have high score... -,-
An account on the graveyard still has way more options than an account on a current US server looking at the 2 merge options.
