Yeah I found him, att'd him 10x for 30k a hit each. I thought the max was higher than that.

He is not crazily strong, I am sure some gold players would hv been able to crack him. Have you come across badtz Maru? Att 32k def 34k, income $2m/h, cash $4m...lvl 106 all buildings upgraded to lvl 10.

Wow, about 10 minutes ago actually, I just hit fight from rivals screen, saw I lost, like you said over 30k defense and I moved on. I'll have to check out the hood if I see him/her again.

At level 106 that sounds like a smart cheater.

Question for the forum.
Is there any advantage to just attacking from the rival list?
I always click on "rob", go to their hood, check out their stats, then decide to attack/rob or not.
Thanks.

Speed. It's efficient if you're confident with your relative strength and/or don't care about losses.

Loot drop seems better, but that's just anecdotal or a hunch or superstition on my part

Coming back to Badtz Maru, she (or perhaps he) has all her lofts, crematoriums, wholesale warehouses, beachside inns etc all upgraded to level 10. Only her nightclubs are lvl 6. Strangely, she is an inactive player, with only 1700 fights won and... 178 robberies! Yet, she has 464 M4a1.

Yeah max has always been 30k a pop on fights. I think that's something that should change though. If they're dumb enough to leave that much $ unbanked, then so what if they get it taken. There's even an in game warning about banking your money. If this player still showed on my rival list, I woulda cleaned him out.

Badtz maru requested me to join his/her mafia in the last few days. My lists are all funky though, so until that gets updated I can't go see this person's hood.

I finally saw nob. I can't touch him. I tried once just to see, and nope!

My list is funky too, I cant scroll down beyond the first dozen or so...I wonder if there is a fix.

I was told there was a fix or update in the works for this, so that's why I said I will add more after the problem gets updated :)

They're working on it.

Total upgrade completion times (not including construction)

Beachside Inn = 618.15 hours
x2 = 1236.31 hours

Wholesale Warehouse = 515.84 hours
x2 = 1031.68 hours

Total upgrade hours = 2268.29

Hours since introduction of buildings (approx Dec 14 12:00 AM PST) = 591.25

Balance hours = 1677.04

1 gold = 0.2 upgrade hours

Gold to upgrade balance hours = 1677.04/0.2 = 83852

Cost of gold @ "Vault of Gold" price = $5600

10% discount = $5040

Tramp, thanks for the math. It's quite clear this Maru is an anomaly...or a time Jumper... Ok a few things you have established (1) her game is almost a mathematical impossibility (2) she spends outrageous amounts...yet she plays the game very little... Now how could someone who spends so much effort and money appear so disinterested in the game?!?!

COULD SHE BE A TEST BOT ? You know...as in the bots mentioned by funzio in response to Joeycool's or was it peanutts complain about not enough high level players? Maybe she is first generation, not fully automated yet, but she is created by the developers.

This is amount needed just for those buildings. She has tons of other buildings all level 10 that gets her to $2m / h income. Not to mention all her upgraded defense infrastructure and weapons that gives her 34,000 Att def points.

Due to the time certainty of the new buildings, that's all I could definitively comment on. Take my comment as saying that, if legitimate, the minimum possible dollar amount since December 14 is north of $5,000.

LOL. You may laugh but since I started "shaking", my M4 drops have actually improved. Maybe it's a psychological/psychic thing. Must maintain proper mental attitude

Only thing I can say is that some people have more money than they know what to do with. Either that or something smells fishy.

Have to say, there seems to be something to khung's method. I'm trying to figure out if Funzio used state tables instead of a true RNG. In any case, my rate is far north of the reported 2% at the Junkyard.

Step 1: hold iphone/pod between thumb an pointer finger.
Step 2: shake iphone/pod up and down in sync with the sounds of the 3 gunshots when looting. (should be 3 shakes total.)
Step 3: collect M4a1(s).
Step 4 (bonus): believe it will drop! Lol...seriously its the law of attraction.
