Heh does anyone you farm constantly keep sacrificing their spies to sabotage or recon you? Heh in my intelligence, the same guy just massacred 100 spies in 4 tries

oh dear... :o
you might be nice and tell them what's going on, and perhaps invite him/her to visit TGA (here)

I tend to feel sorry for these types of people :miffed:

Me too.  Poor spies didn't do anything wrong- their commander was just an idiot!  LOL

Riiiight.  You don't become a spy by being stupid!  LOL

BTW- the last time someone tried to recon me was months ago.  :hehe:

Covert Mission Report

Under the cover of night, your 2,609 spies sneak into UndeTakeR's camp.

As they approach the enemy armoury, an alarm is cried out by an alert sentinel. Your spies are quickly rounded up and executed. UndeTakeR is now aware of your actions. Your Chief of Intelligence recommends preparing your defenses against a retalitory assault by UndeTakeR.

I bet your rank dropped a little after that one.


Title: Farm spies
Post by: Lord Lanair on January 13, 2004, 04:40:57 AM
I've never had that many spies!  LOL  


Title: Farm spies
Post by: Knightinferno on January 14, 2004, 08:30:37 AM
LOL the sad thing is now that when some newbie builds all their rank on CA but then thinks they are invincible and try to spy you with all the spies, but then its fails and they are back down from like 14k to 146k  :blink:  


Title: Farm spies
Post by: Lord Lanair on January 15, 2004, 05:17:45 AM
I've never seen that before.  What fools!  LOL

People should apply a little more logic when playing this game.  :P

Post by: Knightinferno on January 15, 2004, 08:18:17 AM
Heh well it happened to me. I was attacking this one guy that had like 30 guys but then a day later i get a report saying that 1432 spies try to sneak in but failed. I look at his rank and hes all the way down. Heh  :ph34r:  


Title: Farm spies
Post by: Lord Lanair on January 15, 2004, 12:49:31 PM
Ouch.  Did you send him a nasty/insulting message?  LOL  


Title: Farm spies
Post by: Knightinferno on January 16, 2004, 08:27:37 AM
Yes i did heh. I gave him the silent message of dum azz by killing off all his spies and rank :devil:

Could anyone please tell me what the CA amount is for spy immunity is it 150k or 180k
? Thanks.


Title: Farm spies
Post by: Lord Lanair on January 17, 2004, 05:27:58 AM
Neither.  It's closer to 140k (I think the exact number is like 136,000, but I'm not sure).  ;)  


Title: Farm spies
Post by: Knightinferno on January 17, 2004, 06:07:30 AM
Heh im gonna keep adding my CA for rank and the slight chance they're gonna take out that spy immunity and put it in like 1 mil :sheep:  


Title: Farm spies
Post by: Lord Lanair on January 17, 2004, 08:17:49 AM

Why wouls someone be foolhearty enough to send everyspy they had up agaisnt a high level player.  In my experiencew the more you send the more likely you are to get caught.  Unlike most of you I am not in the upper echilons of the spy community and therefore must be cautious in technique.

Maybe they didn't want the spies anymore and wanted their rank to drop? Or maybe, they want the person to know they have an eye on them?

Sometimes, I see a target I want to come back to later... I send a spy in... knowing it will get caught... but now I have that person in my logs so when I check names, I can go "oh yeah, that dude who gets a lot of TBG... lemme go see what he's got right now" ... I use it as a way of creating my 'check this person out often' list.

Hmm, I guess bookmarks are OK if you do everything on one computer... but if I login from school, home, and work... bookmarks won't cut it.
 :rolleyes:

keep a copy of bookmarks in your inbox.  or carry around a notebook and keep track of names and things

Post by: Crash2950 on January 29, 2004, 06:37:05 AM
I think the whole spying thing is a good idea.  Thats the way I keep up with them as well.  Of course I'm in the same situation as Tracy.  I bounce between ten or fifteen computers and its hard to keep up with otherwise.  I know all about server stores and inbox lists its just easier to keep track.  As a bonus, if your spy gets in you have a partial inventory.  Just a thought.

what sucks is when the server dies and those lists get lost...  :( sooo many nice farms...gone... :miffed:  but spying doesn't work much at higher ranks.
*thinks of D&D balancing issues
lots of things need to be fixed in KOC...


Title: Farm spies
Post by: Crash2950 on January 29, 2004, 11:55:53 PM
I have definitely seen more than a few things that need to be fixed but it is still quite entertaining.  If I knew when I started the things I know now It would be a whole lot easier.
