There's perhaps only a handful of people who know how LGing works. I know because of Enshula's data & help. In fact, I've made a program which calculates almost down to the acre.

And I'm referring to LGing (which includes a player's DR). Qzjul doesn't provide the formula, but with reverse engineering, it wasn't too hard to figure it out.

i think we are talking about different things. You're talking about the formulas behind landgrabbing.

i'm talking about the real landgrabbing before ghostacres where you struggled with blood to gain your 30-40k acres through bottomfeeding and retaliations. Back when it actually took WORK to get a good final networth. Now it's all about landtrading and helping others to get fat from ghost acres.

so no... you don't know anything about landgrabbing.

the formulas for ghost acres have changed a LOT since then. They only really had an impact for topfeeds.

ghost acres were negligible for bottomfeeding and midfeeding... so they may as well not have been there.

EE originally didn't have them but qz introduced them later to curb membership decline.

My original post about you not knowing anything about landgrabbing stands... because you've never actually done a full set of landgrabbing.

You know people get deleted for swearing and inappropriate messages a fair a bit and you are also turned into a shade of purple.
Mind you Tella has giving me plenty of warnings in the past about calling people fluffs and other not so nice words.
Hell once I ignored his warning and I was deleted over a nasty exchange of words with fatty cuz I kept swearing at him over his repeated topfeeds and BS land grabs on me.
Of course I pleaded for reinstatement but they told me to pound sand cuz Tella had warned me twice the day before

Wrong Bstrong. I'm referring to calculating LGing players who are in DR. Not DR 0.

The new DR system hasn't even been out that long, so to say it's been out a long time is already incorrect.

My program calculates DR based on exact times of attacks, not eestats DR (which is inaccurate).
Also, I highly doubt many people know the attack gains formula (which includes DR), because it took me awhile even after using Enshula's attacking data. Many of the programs out there use the old DR system.

Enshula does it all manually, whereas my program calculates all the best targets for a particular player including DR/networth/land/ect.

lol, we had several of these in PDM, first from Detmer, then BigBen, and finally the one Auspiggy wrote that was the most accurate and expansive. It could calc anything, not just landgrabbing - lemming calcs, SRs, SDI decay, DR (before and after DR nerf) it was flipping aces . . . 3 years ago.

Old formula:
Landgrabbing Returns = (Target's Acres) * (NW bracket percentage) * (DR Factor) * (Military Strategy Tech) * (Tyranny 20% Bonus) * 3 (if PS) or 2 (if SS)

Old NW % || returns system:
NW % | | returns <0.30 | | 0.0031 0.40 | | 0.0077 0.50 | | 0.0122 0.60 | | 0.0168 0.70 | | 0.0213 0.80 | | 0.0258 0.90 | | 0.0304 1.00 | | 0.00350 > 1.10| | 0.0377

Old DR system:
Target has been hit 0-2 times in last 24 hours: 1.0
Target has been hit 3-4 times in last 24 hours: 0.8
Target has been hit 5-6 times in last 24 hours: 0.5
Target has been hit 7-8 times in last 24 hours: 0.33
Target has been hit >=9 times in last 24 hours: 0.2

Qzjul posted the new DR system, but not the NW% || returns formula. Enshula did a massive # of attacks to get the data and I created a program from it.
