I was thinking sort of along these lines to be honest.
Already given up, lost Butcher of crydee (t4) my tier 2 demi and a tier 1 demi on wreckages that appeared would be 100% done in time, sick of losing demi's and regaining none, ive been massing a lot and not had a single request, considering they are supposedly increased in likelihood to gain them, im not seeing a damn difference.
i expect more people will be ignoring demi's all together now.
I like the update, but i think its systematically flawed and unsustainable, especially since it relies on the rest of the server going to the same wreckage.
It should be a set number of hours, per wreckage, per wreckage level, per demi, per demi tier.

^ lol at losing the butcher. Also PM with the tourney you wanted cuz I forgot, I want to say it was the plague but I'm not sure now.
@sniperwax: The intention was never for one or 3 people to polish off a wreckage. Maybe a tier 1 with a solid devotion, but otherwise it's an ascended wide attempt. Son goku ended up with the right idea, after some time. I thought you would coordinate a bit better and earlier than this.
That being said I'll lower the bracket capacity for some smaller tiers so they're easier.
EDIT
A few numbers changed. The newer tier 1-3 will have a smaller bracket to randomize starting resources, and a bit more time to harvest. T1's where halved approx.

I have a concern. Demi's are less likely to join the more you have right? I have lost demi's with no new requests as well. My concern is if whatever is used to determine if you get a demi is updated when you lose one in a wreckage. IE, you have 5 and lose 4, does the system still think you have 5? If so you will never get a demi again. LOL.

No, it's calculated at the instance of 'finding' a demi. So I guess you would say it's updated instantaneously on change.

Suggestion
When a Harvest is at 100% done
the timer to explosion senses that and completes at 10 times the rate!
The Great Wreckage of Faheem
Tier 1
Time Left: 75 hrs 23 mins
Mass Harvesting Progress: 100% (0 left)
Energy Harvesting Progress: 100% (0 left)
to being done in 7.5 hours!
Anyways.. who knows

I think the reason why it doesn't (a reason I forgot) was due players having over the max amount of demis.

the max ats of 4k to 5k as we using more ats harvesting for mass/energy and there is less active players due to them harvesting wreckages.
or give a more often refill for ats

It seems to me that regular demi-gods are rather pointless now.
I only have 5 regular demi-gods,
(because I was silly enough to send a demi-god into a wreckage without knowing what I was doing...)
I can't get a replacement demi-god, even a crummy one...
cuz I have no stargates,
I have no stargates because I have no mass and no energy,
and I have no mass or energy because I can't spare the attack turns to go get them.
Thanks for the GAG demi-god, tho...

I come out ahead... so I think that's a net gain for me...

I have 5 left... but they aren't equipped,
due to the costs involved, so they sit around and collect dust.

there is yea but u need to equip it to get it to generate over the max and then once u run out of energy u loose the extra generated ats so there is no point in harvesting imo for now cause the less are playing ascended for the less ats and more harvesting

Why bother having them? Easier to find, so find something worth equipping.

The actual idea in itself wouldn't help. Having extra space wouldn't help the lack of turns needed to get back to what people used for other business.
Also, update, I couldn't think of the reason why I didn't finish them when mass and energy were zeroed so they now do that. You will notice three 'time left' titles: "Completed! Waiting for turn change"," Waiting for turn change", and just the time left.
First means you won, second means you're dead, the last is just the natural time left.
