I could see where incit could take up that amount of time, but I can’t see why anyone would torture themselves that way. Log in to see images!
and we’d both agree someone grinding the slow forums isn’t doing it for domination. so theres actually a sizeable hour difference between raiders and non-raiders. |

Planning which forums to run for pistachios, maybe watching which forums are available for solo-vanilla, tweaking their toolbars for speedrunning… |

I’d grind one if it gave me the high pistachio. I’m actually considering right now whether I should be running some slower ones for the pistachio or going back in my cycle for the quicker speedrun ones. But I don’t have headsets and am doing it all by myself. That’s not exactly a “no time” activity.

planning pistachios is pretty easy. I keep all the forums in a toolbar folder, and move them to a different folder once i’ve ran them. rinse, repeat after you’ve done the run. if you do the math for your above scenerio of going back for lemons or whatev, thats a 1 time calculation that takes maybe 10 minutes.
otherwise that takes only seconds once you’ve got it set up.
you only need to reconfigure your toolbar once. takes maybe a minute.
solo vanilla does take a little time, and I think the increased reward for it is pretty good right now. Pickled Dickbutt edited this message on 07/30/2008 6:04PM |

‘solo’ klans could effectively counter a raiding klan. A big advantage is all the alts are effective, whereas the klan raid alts are all expending visits on one focus. Think how this would work if a new season started – it could be a considerable advantage, as when one raiding player gets an bumured place in a higher bracket, a number of seasoned solo raiders could do the same with all their alts. Weight of numbers would then counterbalance the higher scoop earning potential of the klan that is raiding. meeeeeeeeee edited this message on 07/30/2008 6:56PM |

that’d be fine too. coordination plus time and effort. just decentralized. |

A folder in your bookmarks toolbar
Log in to see images!
this last week i finished up a 40 forum pistachio run, so once i restarted i’d move all the links back to the “Pistachio” folder, then move them 1 by 1 to done’d as I did them.
if you decide the math works better to do faster forums instead of the full 40 forum loop, then just make a third folder for that. Pickled Dickbutt edited this message on 07/30/2008 6:10PM |

Actually, let’s not forget that raiders pwn forums during the raid. So the time added on by raiding is really quite minor. |

oh, i took that into account. its still about a 5-7 hour difference, unless you’re grinding for flezz, in which case you’re not going to be doing domination anyway. |

2-3, 3 times a week. 9 hours total, i am accounting for the difference in doing speed/pistachio vs raiding as being 5-7 hours. |

Hm… and you’re accounting for doing speed/pistachio on multiple characters? |

no, but thats sort of a different issue, since doing speed/pistachio on alts doesn’t benefit any one main, and thus isn’t counted towards single bracket dominance. |

I don’t see it as a different issue, since alt-based raiding is the issue. |

well you can’t expect the time devoted separately into speeding/pistachio looping alts to apply in a manor that would promote any one of the alts to be more competitive against a raider — unless you are raiding with them as you do the speed + loops, in which case you are well entitled to the vanilla you get from such time and effort.
its sort of parallel to what meeeee was saying about how a clan full of solo vanilla players would do fine if they had enough numbers in a bracket with a raider.
essentially its a different issue because there is no mechanism to earn community lemons or pistachio Pickled Dickbutt edited this message on 07/30/2008 6:49PM |
