I actually double checked all the numbers after the PS, didn't make any mistakes in the calculations.

I've never actually been pang'd. All my failures are faults of my own. Anyone else like this?

i get panqz'd only when i do special attacks (gs/br) even when sending ~15% oversend.

I always send over the 10%.... Usually by 10k. I still get a mehul once in a while. Really makes me mad too, when I know it was good. Sometimes there's human error too of course.

FTFY.

I think I was mepangqzd on one of my DHs this set, and the others were a result of me being half retarded. I am sure crest will be around to argue that half is too small an estimate shortly.

there are many ways to make error and sometimes attack just fails even with big oversend.

Vic is full retarded. Your number of DHs just screams n00b. Even H2o, the king of DHs doesn't have half as many as you.

For what it's worth, it's none of those. The target and his 2 allies didn't change in NW, I oversent 11%, target has no Def bonus, isn't a Dict, etc.

I was shocked enough to go back and recalc the break on the ops a few times, nope, nada. Couldn't figure it out.

lost interest?

somewhat weird that he made 18 lgs and didn't get retalled even once. #6 might have retalled but #13 deleted his country before it happened.

Yeah, that's crazy, I had been watching him in the news already. Wonder what happened there.

Good news for the rest of the techers on the server I guess, prices seem to have spiked a little already.

Being ignored like that must have depressed him. So he flounced off to seek attention elsewhere.

wouldn't work well since there can be tons of tech x coming on market 2 hrs later at lower price than what vic bought, risk is high to lose money.

many want to be sure that their stuffs sell so they undercut and some are just morons who sell at low price (like i said elsewhere that if bushels price is 40 then some will sell bushels at 35-37 or even lower).

if you want to be sure that your goods sell then sell @ standing order.

Actually that's not even correct, someone could fill that order slightly before you and by the time your goods get on market the standing order is met.

But the best way to do it is look at trends and gauge from there.
