I dont have a bot or the experience to know about that... But once again alliance has been caught for staged battle, so my tip for not getting banned: Dont accidentally put out only healers when your friend accidentally attacks you with accidentally high exp boost.

Yes thats true. The trader should make his items more attractive by traveling to you. Stuff thats in your vault is your responsibility. About spying: The shops scrolls can be changed by bg, so even if you spy one cant be sure that those are the only one he can buy. Nevertheless one alternative i ...

ontariomoderate

The artefact/scroll trader is currently only available in the capital. It would be a nice addition if he could be accessed from different cities instead of having to travel back and forth just for that. A perfect vault may unlock remote trading: In other cities there would also be a trader tab when ...

Last weeks werent too bad with max 15min bugged each, but today it felt back with around 3h after cap.

A vast majority of messages are of gov. (blue symbol) type which makes this group ineffective to search through. The first step i suggest is to at least exclude explorer related ones to a separate new type. This would still be the biggest group but also keep the gov. type reasonably full ...

ontariomoderate

Should that also apply to neutral ones? I think a reduction like 50k -> 15k would be fair and upkeep could be cut by the same amount so the only difference is that it is less effective for staging.

ontariomoderate

I use firefox or edge but like i said it all points to the server code beeing buggy and not the client code/browser.

ontariomoderate

I agree, it is very annoying when players just use vaccation to make lakes uncapable.
At the same time bg gain could be continued for the owning player, that would make a fair change.

ontariomoderate

And to replicate it, when were your recent barrack cap&losses and checking price substraction? I think the time the server needs is not deterministic so migth also be instant some times and several h another...

ontariomoderate

In this case yes cause the previous discounted price is higher than current population. Like said, if there is enough of all types it will substract the higher price and queue it properly.

ontariomoderate

Tooltips are displayed correct in all domains. But its the server that tells the result of the action so some code wrong there, reloading does not help. Like here: according to the reduced slave cost and current slave in this barrack it should be possible to order the selected amount but server ...

ontariomoderate

The global bonus lags behind up to several hours after capping a new barrack. The reduction tooltip shows the correct amount but when recruiting it either substracted more than displayed or an error pops up (if ressources would be negative).

By the way, would the admin want to detect accounts transferred out of their control, there's a rather simple way: All of us provide an email when opening our My Lands account ... but when transferred abnormally, in all cases I happened to be aware of, the new owner got the login and password ...

I agree, its very possible to get that much income per day. Also dont forget 20M is only the direct gold from ruins, another 6M by exchanging wood-iron and even more on market. Sacrifies are indeed a very effortless way to get a lot of gold. With barracks the unit can be up to 20 times worth more ...

The dictionary defines a third party as "a person or group besides the two primarily involved in a situation". So, sorry to contradict, but the present wording of game rules allows for a player to use self-written code. Yes, but the situation is about 3rd party code. You are not involved in the ...

ontariomoderate

Anything else as MLs is 3rd party, self written code is already not alowed.

ontariomoderate

Lets hope ml comes back to the browser soon, so pw manager can do its job again...

ontariomoderate

By the text "As a result of your victory, your Hero was able to cast the spell..." it would mean that both heros and artes spell have independent chance to be casted.
If thats true in total 2, 1 or 0 ruins could be found. But maybe this way is too good...

ontariomoderate

I suggested that there are 2 types, Grail AM and Grail PM. AM has 8am relocation time and PM 8pm. Capping a AM grail is worth 24h such as it is with PM grail now. Both types can exist but its type doesnt change. Just when a new one spawns the type is rolled again.

ontariomoderate

Yeah the only thing i can imagine one can do is to always generate a new pw until you get a nice one. Of course thats not good usability...

ontariomoderate

While I think changing the time might be useful, I don't think changing it while the grail is out is very useful. I think a better method might be an in game message to all players that the grail has appeared, moved, and disappeared. And each time it appears a specific "move time" could be set. On ...

ontariomoderate

Grail relocates always at the same time, but a single chosen time is sure not equally good for everyone... As simple solution i suggest a second grail "AM" type which is shifted by 12h. Once a new grail spawns its type is randomly selected "AM" or "PM" and theres some visual indicator to players ...

The basic parameters of these troops are doubled and defense +50 for the duration. Such power! How should i be able to defeat such skilled players? Oh wait, a new timed quest "Maximum³" appeared. This is my chance, i pay the bg right away: quest.png Now my hero is able to raise def to 100 instead ...

ontariomoderate

I will need to cowardly yield against such skill and fast-build my new Temple of Artifacts Allowance where I can utilize the favor points generated to turn on the artifacts for my heroes at an hourly rate. It's my only hope now. Noooo! You are still able to resist my powerful premium wizard?! I ...

Right? Maybe admin want to encourage more catapult usage...

If its true that its not for lakes and since catas wont work against cities there still wont be a way to counter the service.

ontariomoderate

Agree. First it makes rare and expensive artes completely useless forever, second how should a village be ever be destroyed before it can be repaired? A perfect building with 90% protections would need about 50 attacks, and on avg there are 50 players online at the same time this server. Just ...

I never said it can't be played in different time zones -- neither did Zarko for that matter. His method involved turning back his computer's clock .

Careful messing with things like this -- dangerously close to rudimentary cheating tricks. Many time-based games look to the computer's clock to run things, messing with it can change game states. (This is why the game data must by synchronized periodically ... thus "Game Saving..." or why the ...

This idea could be approached in myriad ways, but I think it depends on the balance developers want to have with players. They could even just incorporate "hero missions" as a separate mission type you have. Effectively you could have 8 hero missions and those are reserved for your heroes and ...

Could be interesting but there should be some requirement for those additional rewards. It would fit to send army for a chance: -carriers > resources -mages > bottle -mercs > scroll -certain number all units > bg, arte, rune That means if one sends enough carriers together with mages he could find ...

Thats a real issue, id like some info too. Those how play for long time might find some way to get it working but sure not all will manage it or its too much effort.

My guess is that it is rounded down after multiplying it with the size of the army. At least thats what those calculators seem to do...
So 1 unit with +1% has 60hp while 10 units will have total 606hp instead of 600.

Why do their abilities often have the 2h attack rule restriction while scrolls with the same effect dont?

We could combine both ideas: a science that invites a slave trader for 1 day at activation. One can buy at a market for fixed price and slaves are "generated" instantly just like exchange tab. Without trade between players theres no storing problem and science would keep it away from all-day ...

Those are good ideas. Some effects you cant get elsewhere and those that exists already have fair %.

2.5% sounds fine for me: 4M bid -> 4.1M instead of 4.005M

I think that it is fair to give the first holder an advantage. So not everything is focusing on the last hour but take late slots and it runs through later or cost bigger amount to bid by others.
