Wondy or Shads, just curious on what the current limits are on NW for aids between clan members? I thought clan members could aid to someone who was up to 10X bigger than them, but it seems more like 5X bigger is the current limit. Did that get changed for RTR and not changed back? Or has it always been that way and I'm just remembering incorrectly?

Windy just changes the code on whims sometimes, forget everything you thought you knew. It's all lies now.

Lies Juska, I aint changed nothin'.  That requires ~effort~
(also hi!)

Volky, code says it should be 5x, and it should give you a warning message that says so.
We're running pre-RTR reg code, afaik it's been like this a long while -- aid.php was last edited 4/30/2012

       
        if (($enemy[networth] > $users[networth] * 3) && ($users[disabled] != 2) && ((($users[clan] != $enemy[clan]) && ($users[clan] != 0)) || ($users[clan] == 0)))
            TheEnd("That $cterms[warlord] is far too large to require your aid! $cterms[warlord]s must be less than three times your networth.");
        if (($enemy[networth] > $users[networth] * 5) && ($users[clan] == $enemy[clan]) && ($users[clan] != 0))
            TheEnd("That $cterms[warlord] is far too large to require your aid! $cterms[warlord]s in your clan must be less than five times your networth.");

Last round it was 3x your size and you couldn't send aid.
Strange that it's now 5x if there was no changes?

To be honest I liked it that way. It forced me to be smart about aid and use it to defend eachother instead of simple spamming networth upward. Needed to play smart to avoid expensive runs.

Scouting has been a bit slower than I expected so I'll go for an extra week. The clan looks terrible I was expecting you guys to be way bigger with no resistance and abundant acres to produce with.

It'll be fun when I rip out my sword for battle. Don't get too comfortable cos the tyranny hasn't begun yet.

Its 3X for unclanned players, 5X for clanned players. Being in a clan has certain advantages, that's one of them. You guys were all unclanned, that's why it was 3X for you.

As for the rest... eh, we'll see.

I made a clan last round and had Octavia in there with me.

Well, then you had a 5X aid limit while in the clan.

I'm running maybe twice a week at the moment, same for Sean. Super busy and making no effort to lock and hold the land, or could easily be on double what we are ATM, fyi

I'm currently in top position by a huge margin BUT I'm intentionally dropping down to the bottom.

Apparently I found (and still find) my last visit to these boards far more humorous than my contemporaries.
