1. Does the system influence have a cap ? Hard, soft or otherwise ?

2. Does the "Protector" title function as a constant "King of the hill" type contest ?

3. Will one system's influence ever affect another system in ANY regards such as story,  or cutting off the ability to easily travel between systems because of Warp storms, Black crusade fleets, etc ?

4. Would it possible to implement a running scoreboard of sorts for each system so that when the current protector is "Dethroned" they are moved into the second place such as the current weekly overall Glory contest functions ?

 I believe most players enjoy the bragging rights that healthy competition brings out in a game that is fun.

P.S. (This game is pretty damn fun so far)
