Personally I'd prefer if emperor was not based on AP at all.
The way it is now, we crown the biggest AP farmer. Depending on your server, that might just be some useless person who only goes around killing and uses emp to further pad their AP rank. If emperor was the player most recently responsible for the most keep captures leading up to throning, that would make more sense to me personally (or group leader of the group responsible)

This of course begs the question of how to measure how one contributes to their alliance's war effort. How would you value someone pvdooring dragonclaw compared to someone taking a defended objective when outnumbered? Or zerging a keep at 1:5 odds? The current system certainly isn't ideal in certain respects, but it honestly isn't as bad as some people make it out to be. Most people view a lot of good guilds as nothing but AP farmers but their impact on the map is more significant than most people would like to admit.

I personally don't understand why this guy didn't get more Agrees and Awesomes. This is the most idealistic and genius concept I've read in these forums since day 1.
