Shouldn't a hardcore farmer and someone who is qualified to conduct a thorough analysis know how long the "take a break" timer is? You want us to accept your data and your conclusions but then throw in "8 or so?" It wouldn't have been that difficult for you to look at a clock when testing your theory, or even to look it up - it's published all over the place, including all over the forums.
We already know that the game uses a queue for village selection and that it prioritizes offerings based on recent activity. We also know that it provides village selections based on trophy count, and that the queue appears to reset after maintenance updates. They've never claimed it just randomly grabs a village. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if there are other factors involved. There's nothing dishonest or underhanded in making educated selections.
