stompi - Mon Jun 30, 2008 10:53 pm Post subject: Better time for happy hour Hi, the happy hour is now betweend 6:00 and 7:00 am servertime (UCT+0200), right? I don´t know, where the most from our dynasty are from, but for european users, this is not the best time in the morning. All, who go to school, study or work have no real chance. I really want to klick more than 400 average or click sometimes the most of daimyos and peasants, but that is impossible with happy our at this time. Could you plz make the happy hour between 23:00 and 24:00 for example? DemonicJ - Mon Jun 30, 2008 11:20 pm Hey stompi, im all for having more than 1 happy hour so that all members can have a shot. If there is enough interest in other times we will go for it ppj2005 - Mon Jun 30, 2008 11:37 pm It is not a convenient time for a lot of people. I think there was a previous attempt to have a happy hour at the time you suggest, before I was active here. The best way to find out is to try it. Perhaps some of our allies will join us in making their extra links available to the dynasties a bit earlier. mao_nagra - Tue Jul 01, 2008 12:44 am it cold be a good idea, I'll start to do it at 23 Rome time 
starting tomorrow 
jamiroquai_chic - Tue Jul 01, 2008 2:09 am English time 23.00-24.00 sounds fantastic or even 12-1am sounds good but getting up at 5am blowwws! really it does! mao_nagra - Tue Jul 01, 2008 6:24 am 23 Roma = 22 London 
ppj2005 - Tue Jul 01, 2008 11:08 pm Hmmm, Mao_nagra your note says trial at 20:00?, and you put out your links at 00:00. Help me to understand here. - okay I see you changed it. mao_nagra - Wed Jul 02, 2008 2:49 am sorry my mistake 
it is better to do it at at 00:00 be cos minicity restart at that time
ppj2005 - Wed Jul 02, 2008 2:57 am Yes, it restarts at midnight, but if they haven't clicked your link yet, why will it matter whether it is at 23:00 or 0:00? Folks participating in the happy hour need to put out at least one extra link only available for that hour. I am happy to put out the 4 extra links but expect to see more than stompi and mao_nagra (an hour later) putting out their extra links. If credits are a problem send me a message and we'll see what we can do to get your link out and the dynasty average rising fast. Mush... you say in your note you are saving them for when they count. As long as they are helping us pull up our average now, why aren't they counting now? jamiroquai_chic - Wed Jul 02, 2008 3:13 am looks like im setting my alarm for 5am again!! LOL sleep for 1.42 minutes woohoo! shumadija - Wed Jul 02, 2008 6:28 am OK, now, when is reset time, when is happy hour time? I'm confused now 
jamiroquai_chic - Wed Jul 02, 2008 6:30 am i meant uk time sorry love ppj2005 - Wed Jul 02, 2008 6:43 am We were trying an additional happy hour... or perhaps moving it. It doesn't seem like many of our allies participate anymore. I don't know. We were looking for input. I like the hour before reset... seems a bit more exciting (yeah, no life). I just wish they would move the reset time. jamiroquai_chic - Wed Jul 02, 2008 7:05 am I agree with moving the reset time.
I have no life either LOL so I've stayed up all night to make my daily average high, even though I'd already lost a fair amount this morning... But back to the point, I really do think the reset time should be in normalish hours. Lucy x mao_nagra - Wed Jul 02, 2008 12:03 pm
but it is, it depends just in were are you it is different if you leave in Australia or in London or in New York
jamiroquai_chic - Wed Jul 02, 2008 12:11 pm Well where does the majority of people who use the site live? 
mao_nagra - Wed Jul 02, 2008 12:19 pm I don't know!!!
there are lots frame Japan, USA, Europe, ... jamiroquai_chic - Wed Jul 02, 2008 12:23 pm Personally I think the best time to reset it would be the time that minicity resets, 12.00. But not everyone uses that... stompi - Wed Jul 02, 2008 12:24 pm The most people have each day a new ip, but it changes when they restart the router or have the 24h-disconnect and not at 24:00. That means, that you could have 2 clicks from some persons, when you show the additional link after 24:00 o´clock. And if you have for example only one link, you should let one link permanent and the happy-hour link each time on another position, that you can click it every day in the happy hour and not only exact at the time, when you clicked it the last day. This means at the first day after 24:00 till 01:00: 1 http:// link1 2 http:// happy-hour-link 3 http:// 1 http:// link1 2 http:// 3 http:// happy-hour-link 1 http:// link1 2 http:// happy-hour-link 3 http:// I hope that made it a bit clearer. So I would suggest the happy hour to be from 24:00 to 01:00 or maybe till 00:30 for the "early sleepers"^^ Feel free to correct me, if i have an error in reasoning. As the speaking about time zones here is confusing me a bit, I want to make sure, we all are speaking about the same time: server time is CEST (central european summer time), which is UTC+2. Right? Matemax1 - Wed Jul 02, 2008 2:25 pm I think 00:00 would be better. Nice idea though.
ppj2005 - Wed Jul 02, 2008 9:41 pm Well, if you all want it at 0:00, we can try it then too. jmhg - Thu Jul 03, 2008 1:03 am not to discriminate or favor one part of the planet with the happy hour, it could make a happy half-hour to an hour and the other half an hour to another happy hour, so that people use each time have the same right for hours more or less favourable understandme??? satcomunidad ppj2005 - Thu Jul 03, 2008 4:26 am You want to split the hour... I think I understand. I make my links available for all hours people want to participate in this, but most people do not seem interested in helping their comrades increase their dynasty averages, only absorbing the credits from them. Giving 2 half hours isn't going to change that. mao_nagra - Thu Jul 03, 2008 10:36 pm I will just do my happy hour at 00:00 but if I see that other don't collaborate I will no longer do it it is not for the 300, 400 credits that I use in it but it is a meaner off principles if every body collaborate fine, ells ... I spouse that every body should do it jmhg - Thu Jul 03, 2008 11:14 pm where is the happy hour and needs to be done stompi - Tue Jul 15, 2008 12:46 pm Just wondering, if you are still participating in the 00:00 happy hour. ppj2005 - Tue Jul 15, 2008 10:16 pm I still put out extra links at that time but I do not see general participation. I see several new notes about not being here for happy hour, and I understand the difference that one hour can make in totals.... the problem is that for us to have a successful happy hour everyone involved needs to put out some links. When we tried midnight I was seeing extra links from stompi and mao_nagra. The whole theory behind the hour is that if you and everyone else puts out 1 link.... it has cost no one credits you have just helped everyone else and they have helped you increase your dynasty clicks. If everyone puts out 5 links... the same. It costs NO credits as long as everyone participates and as long as you share that link with the dynasty only. It will cost some a few credits because they cannot hide the link from the history section. So where do the problems come from... it is easy to point to our allies who absorb credits during the hour and don't participate. I have looked at those clicking my links and whose links I have clicked during that hour. It is true that some dynasties give and some dynasties take during that hour. Before we try to fix these "allies" we must first make sure that our people are participating. I have been thinking of a new promotion that will award people who share links during happy hour but I need to think about what it should be and ways it won't detract from people who share several links all the time. If you have ideas for this, share them please. Perhaps our allies will participate in such a promotion and we can get a very happy hour going. By the way, if you are here for both hours (midnight and 6-reset) you can put the same links out for both hours. Share with me your ideas for fixing the happy hour time problem. Kristiina1 - Wed Jul 16, 2008 8:48 pm Talking about the 00:00 happy hour - nope, I can't participate. It's 01:00 am my time and I'm sleeeeeping then I usually put an extra link available during the other HH though.
ppj2005 - Wed Jul 16, 2008 8:51 pm I have noticed... the idea of the 2nd time was to give everyone who couldn't do the other a chance to get some extra links. I do not think the 0600 to 0700 hour will ever stop, because it is the hour before reset. mao_nagra - Wed Jul 16, 2008 11:39 pm sorry for the last 3, 4 days but I whose, and I am, almost aught off credits
