I was never used to complain, but now....

No bragging whatsoever. What is there to brag about, finding decent loot? You aren't sympathising in the slightest, you are indulging heavily in the general craze of wallowing in self pity.

I will explain again, I am putting my experience over the weekend up for public consumption. I don't think that finding decent targets in a random matchup generator makes me special, though apparently you put a lot of stock into it.

Forgive me for doing what little I can to snap this ludicrous and over the top vicious cycle of abuse, derision and depression directed at a game I thoroughly enjoy. I'll leave you all to your wailing and gnashing of teeth about how unfair, broken and malevolent everything about the game and company is.

I am not trying to start a fight here so no "retaliation" is needed. I just struggle to believe that you're actually making this much. What trophy range are you in? How much are you playing per day?

Did You Th Rush, You Went From A Th8 To 10 In 3 Months?

Crystal 2, and I played on and off throughout the day. It is no big deal to pick the iPad or phone up three or four times an hour for a few minutes at a time.

As I said before, I slipped down to crystal 3 for an hour or so, and it seemed that there was a world of difference. My searching was being clogged up with TH8's and TH7's so I pushed up again.

I had steeled myself for a hard weekend, as I had admitted previously that the weekend before was very hard work with little joy, so I was pleasantly surprised. There were a few hours here or there where it became hard work and I just cooked some dragons and tested the water later.

I was using giants, wb's, archers and goblins (with a rage) and was taking on most bases that had 200k plus on offer.

My stand has always been like this: if a large of number of people saying the loot is bad for them, it very likely is. The problem exists, and that's a fact. SC should introduce more resources to the system.

Your baseless claim and condescending attitude prove nothing, sorry to say that.

The only fact is that a lot of people like a good moan, and you are indulging them.

A lot of the community got lazy with loads of collector raids. Now we have spells costing elixir, cheap boosting of spell factory, giants buffed twice and a reduction in the amount of inactive bases in the search queue. To my mind that is SuperCell pushing the game in a different direction to the slightly embarrassing situation of people being lionised for raiding collectors non stop and camping at TH9 to put up big numbers.

Sure at times the game has been excruciatingly slow for farmers, but I just see it as a challenge and something to overcome rather than something to cry about. Hitting the 'next' button is a price to pay for not spending much money in my opinion.

I would believe you, honestly :)

But you have to admit, 7,5 millions a day, as a th10, with the new loot rules... Is really awesome...

I use to earn that amount when i was th8, farming with barb/arch/wb... With the same procès you describe ( coking the next wave before attacking )

But now, with the new rules... The real problem is to find bases to attack with decent amount to loot...

And you prétend to loot 7,5 millions a day... I really want to believe you but seriously, how ? :)

If your troops are ready every 20 minutes, It means that If You're luck y, you find a base to attack every 25 minutes... and If we considare you are really lucky, you found every time 400k gold to loot... It means you have to play almost 500 minutes per day ( 9h )...If we admit you drop every time 400k gold, which is almost impossible.... And this 2 days in a row....

So, If I'm not telling bullsh*t, you are just awesomly lucky, no ? Or is there anything I don't understand ?

This is not an ironic post dude, I just try to understand how you can earn so much gold ;)

( ans sorry for My pitiful English again, I'm not a native english speaker at all.... I'm. Belgian :)

If you are a premmie th10, you are screwed. Mostly because of the gargantuan loot penalties and differentials between th8 and th10, I think you may have seemed to forget about that.:o

Let me attempt to help u out here :)

- $7.5mil a day
- averagely loot $200K gold per attack (not including any league bonus)
- That means 7500000/200000 = 37.5 attacks a day
- Assuming every attack takes u appx 8mins (to log in, queue troops, donate, wait for troops again, find a base etc) = 37.5 attacks x 8mins per attack = 300mins a day
- Total accumulative hours spent per day = 300/60 = 5 hours of clashing time non stop

OR

- 37.5 attacks x 20mins training time per attack = 750mins
- 750mins/60 = 12.5 hours a day of "on and off" playing and searching and attacking and donating and training troops and chatting etc etc...

Not easy.. Lol.. And its leisurely attacking strategy in his books..

*thumbs up*

Cheers~

Trophy range and time of day have a lot to do with loot. More active players at a certain times means less loot.

This ^^^^^^^. Clearly not leisurely playing by any means. The math proves it is more of the same thing anyone has to do to make loot now. Stare at a phone/pad for 12 hours a day. No way around it.

My big raiding time is before work on weekdays. I wake up 5:30 AM central time. Loot is great typically until 7 AM and then tappers off for me.

I also raid in a more variable way between 7-10 PM. Sometimes for an hour, others for maybe 2 attacks. This time is alright for loot typically during the week.

On weekends I get to sleep. I'll try closer to 7-9 Am and maybe randomly during the day. Now weekend loot is always worse but these days I avoid doing any major grinding. More than a few times I've found myself hitting next for 100,000 worth of gold and 10+minutes. I use to raid and clean the house weekends but this unpredictability is making this impractical.

For or me the updates has increased the variability in loot. Good times are better and bad times are even worse. These times are not 100% predictable either. I can have awesome loot for 2-3 raids, then find myself nexting for 10 minutes in the same session.
