The camping out wasn't intentional...I got bored with the constant fighting and raiding, so I decided to invest in money building upgrades and would just check the game twice a day, tops. Early on, it was easy. Got up to two 3-level Manors, no problemo. Then after a bit I started getting raided more and more and I figured out that the players had all suddenly surpassed me. Both startling and humbling. Rather than give up on the game, I decided to see if I could "adjust" to this new way of play. So far, so good. But I've still got some catching up to do. LOL
