I wouldn't want anyone to get the wrong idea about who might report this entire second page for flaming...
I'll just say this much:
I'm about to do it myself...
please, pretty, pretty, please,
knock it off, all of ya flamers.

both sides admitted to using similar PPT tactics...
you're all in the same boat.

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.
hmm, but I clearly state this as an experiment
I made myself some time ago, and the times used are the optimum ones for extending ppt.
and there are absolutely NO DATES quoted, just days, which with the weekly reset being when it is, is not changable.
no names were mentioned, or even hinted at, this thread was started out of curiosity, not to point fingers... there is nowhere even the slightest hint that you were the person Nostra was talking about, so one wonders why you are so certain it was you?
In addition I'd like to add that I was demonstrating how an
ascender could be on ppt for 16 days, you are not ascending anymore...

Eelyzabth, perhaps on account of current events in the Galactic Colesseum...
nonetheless, we should proceed as if none of us knows who it is...
Harchy,
it seems no one is quite sure just what the limits are on PPTs bought with cash,
although it does seem possible to extend your PPTs indefinitely,
provided you are willing to spend way too much time and cash
on the computer, online, and ingame...

well, each time you purchase 10 dollars worth of goods you will receive an hour (which can stretch to 1.5) so if you have the money i suppose you could technically but goods every 1.5 hours... has anyone ever purchased items in quick succession? I am intrigued to know? as for the 2 day ppts, other than ascending they are strictly 2 per week, you cannot even see the upgrade page if you already used 2
edited to add : I haven't read the galactic thingumy, came across this one by clicking view new posts... I tend to avoid the areas where people are nasty with each other

you could if you didn't require sleep lol...
but yes, my example gives you a 6 hour period you would need to buy 10$ worth goods (4 batches) then you'd be in a new week, 2 more ppt, making 20 days, but you would then have 3 days of none ppt, so unless you were sad enough to spend 3 days buying small amounts of naq every 1 1/2 hours, you would HAVE to come off ppt, for a day at least (then vac mode lol)

it sounds like it is probably possible...
if you are willing to give up large parts of your life,
if your Comp, ISP, and the game never crash
during the few minutes that you absolutely need to be online
every 90 minutes...
frankly, even my part-time job probably pays enough
to rebuild even a top 10 account more cheaply
(and more sanely),
than insisting on PPT every 90 minutes for so long...
...yea, basically what Els said...
though it's theoretically possible to string some goods-purchased PPTs together
so that you probably wouldn't have to be on 90 minute intervals for an entire day concurrently...

Though it wouldnt work as well as the way Lizzy suggested given the extra half hour thing you can get. but if you purchased good from black market multiple times, rather than in one bundle, would that stack?

CJ darling, so nice to see you here, yes, i did mean to buy $10 worth, wait till the ppt was out including the 30 minutes negative counting time, buy another $10 worth...
Kaboomer : *gets out my knitting and puts my teeth in a glass*
sorry
did I just ruin your image of me?
and I agree, I would just Vac mode. I've actually never yet allowed a ppt to run out naturally, I get soooo bored.

This is a good question, aiming at the core of what I was asking ... wheter or not it is possible to be on PPT forever ....
Would the bought support packages stack the bonus ppt time if bought ?
