Yes I saw it. It looks true, I'm just saying from the wiki language, I was lead to believe TGAL could = 0.

Thanks everyone for the rip-roaring debate.

So you're saying TGAL is 0 so long as you're not getting a turn? Lol that IS true...or else private market would always be 0. But cuteness aside, I think you get my point.

If you can Never be in a 'logged in' state(like updating a table with logged in status TRUE when you login...), why differentiate logged in/out in that way? It needs to be rewritten.

units_on_private_market = (units_on_logoff*(0.985)^TGAL)+bonus*unit_rate*Land*TGAL

This part of the formula calculates decay:
(units_on_logoff*(0.985)^TGAL)

If TGAL can never be less than 1 (i.e. 0), then you HAVE decay. The quote from the wiki states it's possible to have NO decay, which is not true from what you all have said and what I've seen in-game, since there's no way to make TGAL = 0.
"If a country logs out with X troops and logs in before a new turn arrives, there will be no new troops and no decay on the old troops."

I don't think it'd be hard to just query for a logged-in state or not, but that doesn't matter. If the game doesn't check that, so be it. I'm just saying the wiki implies that it does...

Excluding PM of 0, it's impossible to not have any decay if TGAL can never be less than 1....just look at the formula. If you argue that there can be no decay in that, you're not understanding the formula.

I get what you're saying, I really do. I'm just saying this quote on the wiki is not true, and so it's misleading: "If a country logs out with X troops and logs in before a new turn arrives, there will be no new troops and no decay on the old troops."

Key being 'no decay'(excluding PM of 0), which is impossible if TGAL is always > 0. Does that make sense??

One other important note.

Whenever you sign in-- you want to ensure you buy those units before the next turn hits, otherwise it all resets. So make note of the time when you sign off.


I get what you're saying, but the formula and wiki doesn't say that. You're saying TGAL can never be <1. But the wiki makes clear distinction between logout/logon(which as someone said the game doesn't do), and it also states it's possible to have no reduction in private market which would mean TGAL = 0, ("If a country logs out with X troops and logs in before a new turn arrives, there will be no new troops and no decay on the old troops."), which apparently isn't true.

My key point being 0.985^0 would = 1 and not 0.985, so there would be no deduction. This must have been the intent for the quote above to have been mentioned in the wiki.

If reality isn't matched up with the wiki, it's no wonder this gets asked a lot, per drkprinc

Well that's good to know, but it's not what the wiki says. Perhaps the wiki should be made more clear(or correct) if what you say is true. Thanks though.

But according to the formula, and the note in the wiki, if I don't logout then the value of TGAL should be 0. Any number to the power 0 is 1, so my private market should not deplete at all while I'm logged on.

Basically you're saying the formula given is wrong?

This quote is impossible is what you're saying, except PM be 0?
"If a country logs out with X troops and logs in before a new turn arrives, there will be no new troops and no decay on the old troops."

I wonder if it's using my turns on hand to calculate "TGAL" instead of using actual turns gained...and it does it every turn not only after logouts/logins it seems.

According to the formula in the wiki, the private market should not decrease at all if you don't log off. I've been logged in and watching my private market drop with every new turn that I get. Is the formula not accurate or is there something else I don't know?

units_on_private_market = (units_on_logoff*(0.985)^TGAL)+bonus*unit_rate*Land*TGAL

No, logging in and running turns for 10 minutes a day is not the same as sitting at your computer all day and immediatly sending someone a frantic message the instance someone spies them.

You have me beat on that front, you are way better at mindlessly sitting at your computer and playing a text based game... All day.

Keep nerd raging kid. This is fun.


Is he actually making excuses for himself?? Lol that's precious.

This coming from a guy whose spent how many hours now 'mindlessly' posting on this forum with a guy who 'supposedly' sits at a computer playing a text based game all day? So what, you just do it all night then?

Scott, what's it mean if You know My country and I don't know Yours? It means yours goes unnoticed in the lower ranks. And no, I don't remember what asshole talked what fluff to me a month ago...accept Clint. Maybe you remember all of these things with that 'busy' life of yours

Also, that does remind me...so you're the asshole that messaged me "thanks for the land asshole, still finished better than you" or something along those lines within the last 2 minutes of the set? And then I outjumped your ass and put your properly under my boot? Yea, that was real cute of you to run your mouth and lose Lol...how did that feel, Scott? How many hours of sleep did you lose ragin' about it?

Also, I'm pretty sure this way all before the posting about bots in forums? You still have no proof of anything. But, yes now that I see that country name I will admit I do remember exchanging unpleasant messages with you about it.

You just puking out what I said in forums isn't valid. Anyone could say those things(see KingMe's confession), and like I said, I don't believe I gave a long winded lecture about bot hitting to some Express Noob, aka you. Tell me your country name that set and let's check history.

No I remembered, was just waiting for you to deny it, like you did, so you would have to backpedal, like you just did.


How is asking what country a backpedal? Claiming a country that's known to be me doesn't help, and you didn't tell me your country # either. You're making half-assed accusations and when someone else says, "oh it may have been me", you don't even acknowledge it. Why are you still posting, Scott? Don't you have a life to live?
