AT generation Bug

Attack Turns: 15382

Now this account is in perg. Only way to gain ATs is through natural generation IE no buying/trading of any sort to gain ATs.

So my question is, how has he generated (and still generating) over 15K ATs? Am I missing something or is it a new/old bug?

Sidenote: account is inactive

Actually in Pergatory there is a market available.

Use 1 market turn in exchange for 2,340 non-transferrable turns... so you can buy up to 14,040 turns per week in pergatory.

Non-transferrable turns do not show up on spy reports.
The turns Wasmguy sees are - in fact - transferrable turns, and the only ways to get those would be to buy them on the Black Market (not possible in Pergatory) or ascending (just not *that* many, especially without broker).. seems unlikely.

A few hours ago, me and a few friends of mine (5 of us in total) had less than 5K an hour or 2 ago, and now we all have more than 15K of ATs. I can't imagine that this is an early Christmas gift, isn't it? :P Or is this that AT generation bug thats happened

Those ATs are personal turns, thus not possible for being displayed during spying.

And also, not related to this bug, as this was reported way before the present was issued. :)

From what I see my officers/alliance do, you do. They sell at 'market value' (which is currently about 3T per 5k AT according to the game). :)

3 Tril per 5k (500 mil per AT/7,5 bil per 15)? You'll feel robbed then .... LOL. At least an encouragement to use your AT before you enter Perg.

3T per 5k is 600M per AT. Biiig difference of 20% to your figures! ;)

Just do one of two things. Since Pergatory is inaccessible 2 days after your last attack, attacking is not always the best option. What I recommend my guys is to either sell off their ATs to others, or dump them with someone until they return to Norm permanently (though I am glad they usually sell them), half of our alliance is in Pergatory - usually. :P
