In other words, you winning a global challenge will not give personal points to any of the other members. Your builds can increase your personal points as well as your faction's total score only.
Right, that is what I am saying. Imagine a pirate captain sharing his booty with other pirates not on his crew. I have spoke my mind and offered my opinion on this, and I do not want this to turn into anything negative, so I will drop it now.

OK, I know we're trying to move on here, :) but I'll just offer this quick counter example:

Your 'pirate captain' captures a ship. He gets to keep all of the booty (personal status points) for himself, but he also contributes to the general lawlessness of the seas as a whole (faction points). This is more of an indirect benefit to the rest of the pirates out there, since he has weakened his enemy, than to any one other pirate individually.

I don't know if that helps at all, but that's just what popped into my head when I saw your example :)

You aren't sharing anything, you're making the Queen of England say "oh bloody Megablocks, the pirates captured another one of our ships".

edit: ..or what AK said, same thing.

While we're on the subject, I also think it would be a lot easier to read if we quoted less. There's really no need to quote the two previous posts just to add a short comment.
