To the Multiplayers,

Those of you who play any "5 vs 5" games knows that there is the infamous "Suicide Spot," the position where you are surrounded by enemy players and your entire team is on the other side of the system.  There is no hope of running, as you will be caught and destroyed within minutes.  There is no hope of attacking, as your enemy closes in from all sides with seemingly endless fleet supply.  The only possibility of survival is to sit and pray that you go unseen - yeah, like that's going to happen. 

But really, what is the best solution to being in the "SS" - so to speak?  Is it better to simply give your resources away and lube up, or is it better to take enormous amounts of feed (assuming that your teammates actually have any to give and will give anything) and turtle for an eternity, hoping that later in the game you may actually be liberated by your allies on the other side of the system?  Do you expand quickly to three or five planets and hope you have enough time and credits to Starbase yourself, or do you make sure that you only have one or two planets and defend them heavily? 

I have heard and tried numerous different tactics, but am personally wondering what is the best tactic when placed in the Suicide Spot?
