Covert levels

After being inactive for almost a year, I realized I should set my goals. To get an idea of what's happening, what's the highest covert level and how many have it?

IF you can stay outta trouble, you won't need anywhere near that.

I have 35, but then, I am doing my best to stay outta trouble.

If you saw my 42.5 page farm list,
you would understand why even Dubby has level 35 atm.

(still ascending further at some point,
my next ascension prolly gonna be black market if the math works out.)

you needn't worry about getting cov 41, really 38 or 39 will do for most players at least for the time being

I assume you have something like cov 35-36?
You have three choices.
1. Leave while you can.
2. Buy your way.
3. start a NG account and hope you might end up better.

There is a secret 4th way, except it requires massive amounts of time, and it wont take the whole of your summer, just most of your time as a online game loving human being.
On the flip side if you choose none, anybody with two covert levels higher than you (a handful in every alliance), will take you for a joy ride in every war. You will end up sacrificing massive amounts of spies just to keep an attack and def safe, if you don't build the spies you will effectively have no defence during any given war and no attack over about 1 trill.

Although....there is another flip side (we are now in 3-dimensions), accounts are quite cheap now even though people paid big cookies to get them where they are, so number 2 is looking pretty good.

Are you implying a newgrounds account can transfer to a mega main account?

There exists a keyboard letter that, when held down, exactly at the time of ascension will grant the user an account that likes of which will destroy the universe.

My assumption is his account will be more crap than the stock standard he will get if he goes through NG ;)

It just brings up an interesting question about how good that stock standard will be...I guess stay tuned...

I'm pretty sure Admin said on an IRC chat once what the stock standard is going to be, though I'm sure it's not "set in stone." I could try to find that... >.>
