Just an FYI to everyone who is looking for feeding:

I was attacked by blain 10 times today. The result:

blain's naq gained: 0
blain's units lost (exluding defected): Roughly 1800
defected units: Roughly 6000


In otherwords, I GAINED 6000 units from these attacks, while losing 0 turns. For this reason I believe that it is actually possible to be fed this era not only by taking another's naq (through illegitimate ways), but also by being massed by someone else that has an unhappy army and large amounts of untrained units or attacking units (whichever group it is the defects from unhappy armies).

Unfortunately, this method of being fed results in the one receiving the benefits of feeding while losing 0 turns, making it arguably more efficient than "standard" feeding. It is also going to be harder to determine who got fed through this new method vs who was simply massed.


I just hope that I didn't give anyone any ideas about how to feed, but something tells me Kikaz or Akhal are going to dash those hopes...

EDIT: On top of this, I didn't choose to have blain attack me 10 times, whereas with "standard" feeding methods I must choose to spend attack turns to take the naq from my buddy. I (and anyone else) could be looked upon as a feeder simply by having a strong enough defense and happy enough army such that all attacks are stopped while units defect to the defending individual.

Did you? Sorry to repeat it then, but I guess I must have missed it. I don't know how to get in touch with an admin, otherwise I would.

For the record, I'm not a cheater which abusing that bug would be cheating.
Anyone who cares enough can get in touch with jason easily and report bugs and get them fixed.
Just because you are sore for failing to do the only thing you attempted last era don't try to accuse me of things :)

Who the heck is Feri? And by "bug" do you mean feeding? Because the admins have been aware of that problem for a while I believe, long before Akhal got a case of the munchies.

And another mystery is solved by the great Scenester!

Getting back on topic, though:

It was explicitly mentioned in the previous era that feeding was illegal, thus I think we can accuse you of cheating. And just because I didn't take the time to contact Jason (which admin is Jason, by the way?) doesn't mean that you are no longer cheating.

On top of this, some of us don't know how to contact Jason (or any admin).

Though to be honest, I can't say I tried to hard to figure out how to contact an admin (but I did try).

To talk to admin Jason... go to "(new) chat" in the top left hand corner of the Q page. Then go to the channel called "#theplace" and he will be there called ~admingone ... or something similar.

Only problem is that he almost never responds :D Fridays are your best bet.

Hooray! I'm learning something new!

Also, I'd like to say that blain is feeding Nitro, and has also given units to Hippy Fool on a number of occassions. He's also "force feeding" (as I've decided to call it) me, but I don't want his help (and I'm guessing Hippy doesn't want to be "force fed" either). Any ideas on how to get him to stop? I can't think of any way, which means I (as well as Nitro and Hippy) may be getting a boost throughout the entire era. I may suck too much to win even with this boost, but the Hippy doesn't need a nice bonus to come out on top, and with blain's help I fear he will be unstoppable.
