How about that 8 EQ's in 8 hours costs 2800 favor. Add the rest of the spells...

Someone just brought to my attention (using -rep) the fact that world speed changes the cooldown time. Since he courageously left no signature, I'll just respond here.

4 hours is for world speed 1. That's the slowest speed. Which means that if your world speed is not 1, you'd be able to cast spells faster, i.e. even more than 3 per 10 hours. I was actually being generous with my assumptions.

I think I deserve an apology, but I probably won't get one.

No see, you wil lget one ''I apologise'' i made a uber fast response cos i am quite angry on your crybabies cos someone is casting a few spells on you (yes its few until its above 1000 spells)

I simply calculated 3x 4h fast and forgot 1st spells = 0 cd...

Hate bandwagon is still there... so what if he casts 3 spells in 10h? i can do that too simply with 500 favor in stock and taking daily and cast it all on your within next 10h?

When someone will cast LB on your for the next week each 4h then you can complain a little... then again you must've stirred him up real nice that he bothered to spend so much for so little.

I take it back. I accept your apology. Reputation doesn't matter to me at all, don't worry about it.

Its just i think people are overreacting with this ''problem''

Its a TEAM game... and even if you give 1 player UNLIMITED gold he cannot defeat 120 players...

He would get physically and mentally tired before achieving this.

I've unlocked the thread as it had been locked for cleaning and players to be warned of their rule violations. I am not against you voicing your complaints. I allowed this when the old 1.26 worlds were updated to 2.0 as long as it was civil and within the rules. I appreciate constructive criticism, but not posts which are just meant to spew disgust and hatred of the event and further the 'bandwagon of lies' regarding what will happen. The event has only been running for a few days, and yes, there is the issue with the 24 hour cool down but that will be addressed once Inno opens on Monday.

But as you are aware it is not just one (using massive advantage from Grepolympics) versus 120.

I hate to point this out after making peace with you, but if you assume that he has unlimited gold (and that his opponents don't), he actually can defeat 120 players. It would be hard and tiring, but still possible because of his instant army replacements.

I'm sorry to hear that because we have at least two that fit that category against us but I believe that you are quite correct.

I am afraid you are incorrect. Gold can only be used to a certain extent with army time cuts. There is a formula, which gives its use a limit.

I am not aware of this formula. Please elaborate.

As far as I know, you can use it as many times as you want to cut the training time in half. I suppose once you get to the last second, the game might not allow you to reduce the time to fractions of a second. Also, even if it does, it still takes some time to click the button. And mathematically, if you keep cutting something in half, it'll never disappear entirely. But that's all irrelevant, and I doubt that your comment was philosophical.

EDIT: My mistake. There is a formula as you said, according to the wiki.

Still, if I understand the formula correctly, you could theoretically produce one Erinyes per city every 20 seconds (let's say 45, if you include clicking time). We're no longer in "theoretically invincible" territory, but I think we are in "godlike" territory.

No see a noob is a noob my friend... if he sends unescorted transports CS with revolt attacks uses archers to attack with cerberi and believe me some still do this after they got 2+ cities on olympia after 2 MONTHS! then no gold will ever help them even unlimited...

i can agree with this but what happens if all this gold lies with experienced players ... its like a country. It has got 1000000 bombs , enough to destroy a country 5 times its size , and suddenly , UN says , dudes upgrade your bombs to atomic bombs by paying us environmental hazard fee [ :p ] and then the "dude" does it and suddenly we see rampage and destruction in opposition country .. :p

And you know Alcarin that neither you nor OoA are noobs . :p

Using of gold should be allowed, no doubt, but only with cooldown period as everyone is saying..

Also you all can +rep me if you like my example :p

I did not spend many gold as many in Unknowns or on olympia would like to display... (not even 10k so if thats alot then ok ;) and even those 10k atleast 30% went into reducing build times not buying res, and another 50% or more went into favor... i doubt i bought more than 60k res alltogether (4x each))

Id rather see shop to remove resource at all than making CD, cos CD is more annoying than removal... if you make CD on 4h for example it means to be top i have to wake twice during the night (well or atleast once and once early) just to stay at top.

Or make number of purchases available per day/week for example you can purchase 5000 silver X times in the next 1 week so i could still choose when and when i want to sleep.

See Helliswell i see people complaining on grepolympia who still attack with archers and/or time their attacks RANDOMY within 10min and it is not their 1st world... but funny It is my first world on grepolis and i am doing so great, without paying for gold with all my money.

Ofcourse grepolympia sucks for such players if they are so **** that they actually use such maneuvers they are always behind and now its just more evident. And i am safe to say with me having unlimited gold and them having i would still win this olympics just give me option to di it slightly faster.


So id agree on limited amount of purchases per day/week for all resources but not on COOLDOWN (like buying once then have to wait 4h cos that interferes with sleep ttoo much imo)

Yeah the gold thing here is strange? I do not understand, went to sleep last night it said next free attemot in 2 hours, wake up and it says next free attempt in 16 hours? does it reset, so all my free attempts will occur when I am asleep? WOW

Alcarin89 , i have no doubt you and your alliance would have got them in any case .. i am not doubting your abilities or saying you reached so far in the world only because of gold ... so dont take the criticism of using gold in olympics personally ..

what i am trying to say is that many other players, players who deserve to be at bottom inspite of all the premium that could be made available , are using grepolympics to not only get even but far far more powerful than they deserve to be .. thats all ...
and this is also my first world only but thing is you can also learn ..
and no need to make CD 4 hr .. you can keep it like mood .. if you demand for more laurels.. your CD increases.. how about that???

P.S. - Tell me honestly .. did you like my example in previous post :p ( because i really love it :p)

Is it just me or are all of you new Forum comers from one World?

Let's be honest the only reason you guys are spamming up this thread is because your on the receiving end of a gold buyer who's just Bolting all of you.

If you weren't on the receiving end of this, you would be accepting GrepOlympia without many issues.

Sorry to break your heart but i am not on recieving end of either bolts or attacks ... what i am on the recieving end is to see that while i built up my city slowly and laboriously up to 9.5k by farming every 10 minutes as i am a non gold user ... a guy whos a full fledged gold user, with all his premium advantages had only reached 6.4k 3 days ago , suddenly jumped up to 9.6k within 1 day ..
thats what i am against ... as for the world part ..
yes alcarin89 and i are on same world

Umm that's what I was talking about.

Same World, who have a few big spenders. And everyone from there is just mass complaining.

Lol I agree, I don't care for grepolympics but is it really a reason for people to start spamming a thread or complaining about it??
