Proof inactives do get removed!

[TheGreatPhoenix]

Yes, that's very possible. What I don't know is if the maintenance breaks trigger the inactives to be pushed down the queue or if it's in built into the main code.

When was the three weeks? What day to what day? Also were there maintenance break at that time? If so, then how many weeks did the break come after she stopped playing?

There's no guides currently. But the queue depends on the activity of your opponents. I think there is "activity levels" like for example: You log on every day, you are in front of queue. You didn't log on for a day, you are pushed a little further, and so on.

I believe how it works is when you log off you are put into the front of the queue. That means the longer you're off for the further you go towards the bottom.

It's true this happened to me, I went inactive for 6 months and I stopped getting notifications saying your village was raided by name. When I logged back on 2 weeks ago my FULLY exposed mines and collectors where FULL and my defense log was completely clear. Inactives aren't even prioritized there flat out not even there.
EDIT: To be clear I stopped getting notifications after the first few weeks.

Yes that happened to me too, I'm just curious why for my daughters account if was only a week or so.

Hi,

there may be some churn happening when maintenance breaks happen but it's a big jump to suggest that it is intentional.

By the way, my "Son" account get's looked at by me once every few weeks at most (sometimes it's months) and it's always been raided every 16 hrs - regular as clockwork.

Ok it's a sample size of 1 but still pretty compelling. My daughter stopped playing for a while, then picked it up again and the last attack on her was made 2 weeks prior to the restart point, exactly 3 weeks since she stopped playing. So it looks like it takes a weeks inactivity before you are either removed from the searches or pushed so far down the queue that no one can realistically find you.

i guess we all knew this already, because if it wasn't true we'd still find the odd base with those wall spikes which were effective on wall breakers until the AI was changed. So I guess I'd just ask SC to cut the ♥♥, and acknowledge that something happens at the maintenance breaks which effectively removes inactives from the search.

If your second account get raided every 16 hours for the whole time and some others don't. Then... it's just lucky you for not getting raided. You are still there, just hard to find.

Is this really necessary?

Its not luck.

My experience with a mini account.

Over Xmas and January the account would be raided for 3 days and then stop and wouldnt be raided again til after I logged in.

During February the mini was raided continually for 3 weeks straight.

I suspect something in the game mechanics is locking out some inactives after 3 days whilst allowing others to stay in match making.

They have openly admitted that they remove inactive bases. That is why the loot is so bad after maintenance breaks. I have lots of shared accounts which i rarely play and there is always a continual streak of getting attacked every 12 or 16 hours and then all of a sudden it stops. My brother didnt get attacked for 15 days!

[MAXZ99]

if this was true the top player could buy a 1 week shield and never log on with that acc again and he would stay at the top forever. Is this legit?
