Seeing as there is a lot of confused people, I'll sort this out..
Q: Why do I only have 500,000 credits?
A: You got reset, lol. But remember to vote for the 10mill, it'll help a lot.
Q: I only have 500 turns, but when I joined last round I had 5000? WTF?
A: You get 500 if you are a member at the start of the round, but if you join after the beginning, you start with 5000. Remember to vote for an extra 225 turns.
Q: Do I stay in my alliance?
A: Sure, as long as you don't leave it. The reset won't kick you out. Of course, the leader might.

Q: Do I keep all of my fleets?
A: Yes, but they'll just have 0 ships. If you don't even have the blueprints, send a message to e, because It's a bug.
Q: I voted, where the heck are my bonuses?
A: They'll take a while to transfer.
The key to burning.
Lets say you have 3000 turns(max at beginning of round)
Extend Commandship- 300 turns
Build facilty- put all those segments towards workshops till you get to 1000
E.C.-300 turns
B.F.- All towards Farms
E.C.- 300 turns
B.F.-Farms
Repeat those steps till you have have around 400-500 turns to spare
Then Build Some ships, or trainiee fighters (at least 25k-30k)
Thanks to waylain for that.
But remember, only do missions if you buy solid ships, because swarmers will cost you. ;)
