That just goes to show I need to upgrade my covert some more...

Um, I didn't receive my last turn, or shipment of naquadah. Any one else have this problem? All I was doing was updating my farming list, which involved going off PPT in order to spy on potential targets.

Seems to have just now updated.
Anybody know when the PPT bonus runs out?
Edit: ah, nevermind. about 5 and a half hours from now.

Got your targets all scoped out do ya? Just hope that someone doesn't beat me to my big tickets.
Damn, did't realize how much I had put into UP in the past 5 days.

you not the only one, I just noticed I got back the turns I gave one of my officers to finance his raid to buy a mothership.

I've got the big targets scoped out. In the meanwhile, I'm hitting what few accounts I can find who aren't on PPT.

I'm not all that concerned about it, in 5.5 hours I'll have added over 300 to my UP, which is significantly more than I lost.

I believe none of the ostracized accounts went on the PPT.

Your right, I've been hitting almost exclusively ostracized accounts.

Dammit, I can't find any good targets.

Too bad you don't have any more folks with 645,843,231,000,000,000,000,000 naq anymore... Those were the times.

10 minutes til PPT is dropped. And to think I was nearly dozing off 5 minutes ago.

grr, game deleted my mothership, weapons, and dropped me 10 covert levels...

I'm protected for -1 more minutes...
And I have found someone with -36billion naq...
haha! And there goes the server overload! (at least from where I'm sitting)

Well I was beaten to the punch on my two prime targets. Not really surprising. I still got 700+ Mil from one guy though.
And now there's so much traffic that the server can't handle it all.

The game is running very slowly right now, which means I've only gotten to hit one target for 350 mil so far. Its bugging me.

Well, now I'm waiting for a server time out on even just one of my four active tabs.

I think they may have fouled up because after 2 hits the server crashed on me and I can no longer gain access. I sure hope no one attacks me seeing as I have close to 450,000,000 after 2 raids. But yeah, the irony of the game crashing due to the fix for a serious bug is pretty damn funny.
Except of course for the people like me who are now basically defenseless from anyone higher up than us. Oh well, unless they have to reset the server again I did manage to make two upgrades to my covert action and massively bump up my UU production.

I got to do nothing. Got ready to hit target, was hit before I could click attack. Another target suddenly lost like 300% percent of their naq (totally fucking serious there, it's between 250% and 300% loss). And now I get to watch it time out.
EDIT: Hey, apparently bitching get me to connect to the server!

Ahhh, much better. Got my UP About to where it was before the thing went to Hell.

Well I managed to get back in, and with 5 attacks and 68 attack turns I managed to farm 1,385,291,171 naquadah. With this money I bought 2 levels of covert action, putting me up to level 16, bought over a hundred more nuclear volleys for my mothership, brought my UU production up to 1900, upgraded 1000 home base guard to defensive NID team, upgraded 500 offensive away team to offensive NID team, bought a shit pile of new guns for my soldiers, and generally gorged myself on the unprotected bellies of my farms. While I'm sure other people got better, I must say that was a hell of a lot of fun.

Damn it, spent most of the naq I looted replacing what the game deleted, because it forgot to delete the weapons leftover from the bug incident when everything else was restored.
Lost 10 levels each from covert and anticovert, 25,000x str 2,560 weapons of each type, 4000 unit production and my mothership Tempest of Blades.
And I still haven't rebuilt everything.

That was nice, I've hopped around four hundred slots up in the rankings. Looks like a lot of people missed the feeding frenzy.

except I loaned mike (crystal) 100 attack turns to finance his mothership aquisition, and he got farmed by Malcom_X.....
seeing as the guy who attacked my officer is 197 in the rankings..... (erm there's not shit I can do to him)
