why did no one farm this?

Yesterday I was quite shocked to find so many good hits on a little farming run. My question is why didn't anyone pick the 'low hanging fruit'? Each and every account had no defense and it's not as if the server is totally inactive as there were about 90 acounts on the time.

Are some of you so indifferent that you can look at 300 trillion dmu and still say no?

Yes. I save my turns for something a little more juicy then 300 trillion.

I creep though shadows
I rise up at night
I live just inside you
And give you a terrible fright
I walk through the darkness
I lurk under your bed
I live in your wardrobe
I creep up in the shed.
I tiptoe through the corridor
I follow you anywhere
I rip your braveness apart
And never ever care
I am fear so don't come near..

Re: why did no one farm this?

Yes Fremen & Kikaz I know you guys wouldn't waste your time with it but my guess is that the 4Q I picked up in a 225 turns should have been enough of a carrot for about 95% of the actives on the server.

I just find it fascinating that suddenly on 1 totally random afternoon my farms had twice the dmu they usually have. T'was the start of a long weekend here down under, might have been the partly the reason

Re: why did no one farm this?

It is all a matter of timing.
When I still took the time to play ascended actively, farming was far more profitable at certain times of the day, with the low point being no people suitable for farming.. high points were quite worth the while though.

Re: why did no one farm this?

Sounds just like origins LOL. When I wake up its good farming, when I come home it stinks.

I guess I follow behind someone who actively farms as there is rarely any decent hits on ascended when I have time to play. Anyone with good DMU out are to small for me to hit. Plus the boring nature of ascended doesnt hold my attention past 4 or 5 pages in the attack screen so I tend to wonder off.

I believe you because my crappy daily experience at 8pm Sydney time confirms it's true. I come home from work and half the accounts have under 40 trillion :smt076
