Re: Perpetual PPT

@ Dubby_CompGamerGeek2

I dont think its a bug .... and it was not about ascending ... as the person in question is an unkown for longer time already.

As it seems ... it looks like the ppts are being bought ... which boils down to my question:

Are we able to buy none stop ppt with $$ and what do you think of it if its so ? ( being able to buy ppt none stop )

i think its possible, i mean not to mention any names, but there is at least one person who does seem to have the ability to use ppts whenever they need one. So if cash spending is limitless, then its definitely possible to ppt 24/7.

Re: Perpetual PPT

Well I know of a way within the confines of the game that allows you to be on PPT for all but 6 hours in any given week

You could then potentially max that out to a full week if you used the market 4 times right at the end to buy turns etc.

Re: Perpetual PPT

I regulary ppt for 6days str8.

Hop on the first one just prior market reset which effectivly gives you a 3rd weekly ppt.
On top of that the 12h alliance time stacks so you`re cruising for 6.5 out of 7 days. infact, Each time you extend your ppt you can "buy" yourself half an hour with the meter going into negative by waiting for the next turn (exposing yourself only for a couple seconds after the turn lag) so 6.5 & some change lol.

And you can do it like that every other week.

No cash or ascensions involved. Buy a few things to tie you over for the 0.4soemthing day and you get 2 more ppts to make it 11 days.

Re: Perpetual PPT

LOL you DDE Dudes a bit frustrated because you couldnt mass the defence I built for Mayhem last year?

Get a grip, do the maths and stop whining on forums.

I came back from vacation and received my Christmas Gift.
I bought 1 x black market turns to take advantage of the Double Bonus Offer.
I used the normal 2 x PPT.

Someone massing you probably used Alliance PPT through the week.

If you still need help with your maths feel free to contact on msn.

Mean time, another chapter in my book called Why are all these made people following me :-D

Isn't someone a bit self centered here?

Robe, the world does not revolve around you. You should have known that already ;)

Re: Perpetual PPT

Robe's a bit self centered? Who is it Nostra is referring to then Deni maybe im a bit Robe centered too ;p just seems to me Robe is the person Nostra is on about.

Now quite smack talking no one is on ppt for ever, yes $$ can make the game frustrating and annoying for non cash players, but when u make a post about it, it doesnt change anything every1 jumps on you, trust me i learnt from exprience, they just call you a whinner heh so do your best to ignore it, y'all get your chance even though we all know most of the people posting here wont even try to mass the account, heh maybe thats why they are posting cos they aint going do nout ingame, gotta do something to make it a team effort i guess.

Nostra yes i do agree with you ppt is annoying especially when you want to mass, but its part of the game hate it or love it its part of the game, $$ players always have the advantage whether it be extra ppts or extra resources or the ability to merlin 10duals every day of the week, its just how it is.

So far comments seem ok but yeah do not start flaming and dont spam. Do not make this a personal issue, thread should be about the issue in general. Establishing one person can do it is fine but dont keep discussing one person and your personal issues.

as a 2 week ascender I can guarentee that using alliance ppt and the free ascending ppt, its possible to be on ppt for a solid 16 days!! (i tried it once just to see, it was the most boring 2 weeks of my life, I eventually gave in and used an extra ppt for merlins)

)wk1:1:friday 12.00GT to sunday 12.00,
wk1:2: sunday 12.00 GT tuesday 12.00 (alliance ppt used just before turn change monday adds 12 hours to this ppt) takes you to tuesday night 23.59...

wk2 : 1 ppt tuesday night to thursday night , 23.59,
wk2:2 thursday night to saturday night, 23.59
ascend, free ppt saturday till monday, plus alliance 12 hour tuesday 11.59 GT..

wk3:1 tuesday 11.59 til thursday 11.59
wk3:2 thursday til saturday 11.59

and with the extra 30 mins a go you get as negative count time, thats a bit over 16 days LOL!!


What a crazy coincidence then, with the exact same dates and times quoted on a specific player.
I am relieved to hear that DDE were not using general to incite propaganda.

By all means, lets keep the discussion general because I agree with Deni that the topic has more value that way.

Re: Perpetual PPT

I PPT for up to 8 straight days every other week when im on my early shift,

PPT Friday - Sunday
PPT Sunday - Tuesday
PPT Tuesday - Thursday
PPT Thursday - Saturday

And then i guess if you where in alliance that had ultra active leaders you could technically make the 12 hour alliance PPT last 18 hours, if you knew what you where doing, and that would be using game mechanics to your advantage.

But i guess in any standard 7 day week of 168 hours.

Say right before market reset, you used your last PPT, giving you

3 x 48 hours = 144
Alliance 12 hours = make it 18 if active.

Your up to 162 hours, of PPT, but this could only be done every other week, i guess you could use Black Market right after turn to add the extra 90 mins ( 60 + -29 to turn )

Unless someone is doing this every week without fail.

Nice of you to post an off topic brainfart, robie ... but euhm ... I clearly stated a question ....

Your post is as off topic and usefull as me asking

"That book of yours, that a comic book by chance?"



And yes ... this has the potential to become a flame thread now....


I asked a clear question in the topic header ... and whatever it relates to is irrelevant ....

I asked: Is it possible to be on lasting PPT spending $$ and what peoples thoughtss were on it ....

You already refered to it as whining ... your pointless brainfarts in your excitement to say something negative about DDE superceeds your perception of what this thread realy was about .... thanks ...

Re: Perpetual PPT

In direct answer as per the black market

This is the official black market. It is called such, since the trades involve an external to game resource ($$). The trades, here, though - are of course guananteed to be delivered.
The market is restocked from the regular market monthly, with limits per player on each resource.


With limits, so im going to say NO you cannot be on a never ending PPT, although i dont know what the limit is, it would also cost a fortune so LOL @ the player who spends $10 every 60-90mins for PPT.
