Normally, I wouldn’t bother, but is it possible for someone to hit level 42 legit within 3 days?
A friend of mine was attacked by someone in middle of base redesign, so I thought I’d go rough em up a little (I had army + max goo cap, and no one attacks me T.T), but I noticed that his profile page says it was made on May. 23, 2012, 3 days ago, and this guy is level 42 and has ALL buildings MAXED, I’m talking all walls, and even fortifications (champion’s 6 too).
Screen shot attached.

Afaik, the only possible way for this would be through shiny, but it’s far too unlikely for anyone to go to that extreme…
If this is legit, then I don’t mind, but if it’s not… do the community a favor and report him.
TBH I hope it’s legit, I really wanna attack that base ^.

3 days? Definitely hacks or creepy rich person.

It just occurred to me that he has inferno buildings, and it took me several days of patience for the skull to fully open up, and no amount of shiny would speed that event up, so unless there is a glitch concerning that, I’m starting to think it’s not legit…

Edit: a friend of that person’s (mtanks) might also be non-legit, it’s not maxed, but does have quite a lot of stuff maxed, most buildings forted (some maxed), and a level 6 champion (no walls btw), and that account was made only one day earlier.

I’m in a war with a rival empire. Our town halls are too far away from each other, so the only “battles” are the picking off of outposts. So far my strategy is to suck out as much resources as possible by raiding the enemy’s outposts day and night, and to capture only the best-defended outposts(which would be about 30-40% of the total). I don’t think that I’m making any progress with this strategy.

What should I do? Should I move my TH into attacking range of the enemy’s TH? Or wait for the enemy to do the same? And am I not taking enough outposts?

What? Empire? Outposts? What are you talking about?

If you take enough op’s you should be able to take out his/her main….or move your main within range, if you really want to take them out.

is it worth recycling my WM and making a new one? 2 out of my 3 OP’s have nothing in them, the 3rd has a basic kit, those 3 kozu’s to the right are always around that damage, AND eMpNuKeMaN attacks me a lot

yeah, or you can jump to a friends place

@nimbus You are in a very unlucky situation. No Kozu farms, a hostile empire, and apparently unhelpful neighbors. As king and yourself said, recycling is a valid choice and you should move again if these conditions are present in your new location.

P.S. your enemy pissed you off right? You should pokey raid his housings and hatcheries to waste his goo, 10K catapult upgrading buildings as even the slightest damage will halt the upgrades, and then take as many of his outposts as you can. THEN recycle your maproom as a final middle finger. His(now yours) outposts will be deleted and his resources wasted.

kk, btw the main reason he keeps destroying my base is his level 5 gorgo :/
EDIT: sadly he has no upgrading buildings or monsters hatching ATM except 1 pebble shiner in 1 OP
EDIT 2: damage done :D

This might not be a question, but i don’t find a tread. And start a new tread could be obnoxious from my part.

How can i report a problem? I have two days reporting a bug, and a week with this problem. Or it’s just my luck.

To the right of the game window , you can press the GAME tab ,
and you should find the report a bug link there .

About 5 day’s ago I started receiving the message “Oops, Something Broke….” Happens all the time now, sometimes breaking every two minutes and sometimes I can’t even get the session to recover. We have three players in the house with the same problem, each with unique accounts and one is even on a different computer. Maybe just a coincidence, but it started at the same time (or close to the time) that the Memorial Day add started popping up when I first open the game. Anyone know how to sure this? Thanks.

If you use wireless it might delay the game so you lose connection ,
and try to start a new web browser for each time you log into another account as that also make it act strange .
Not sure if it will solve your problem , but worth a try .

On box yards how come daves go through one block when they destroy and this means they also do on pathing but no one believes me except sternkomplex can u explain this plz im fully sure about box yards not 100% on the pathing.

Daves can walk thru 1/4 block paths if needed ,
the path has to be 1,5 blocks wide to make sure it follows the path if it hasnt have to walk to far to use it !
So dropping in a dave or 2 abit later might mess up some pathing yards if they have to walk to far to use it ,
Thats also why NECs are important for your layout .

Thanks SPIFF1. One machine is on an ethernet cable, and the other is wireless. I did reboot my router and also did a speed check (with success) to verify I was talking to the internet OK. All other web activities are cool, so I don’t think it is my internet connecton speed. Was kind of hoping this was a game server issue, not mine, but evidence does point to my side considering two differetn systems are having the same problem. Arggggg….

Thanks, already fill those. but any way to know if my report was received? I know this is just a game, but it fun to defend your territory.

First it gets to Kong and then they send it to KIXEYE if needed , so you prob will not get a respond .
But you can also send KIXEYE a mail here : http://www.kongregate.com/forums/81-backyard-monsters/topics/244002-how-to-contact-kixeye , if you want to , but be patient it will be some auto return mails first and they prob will not help you much as the game is here on Kongregate .
As you havent given any info about your prob as i have noticed =P

I’m trying to attack with Zafreeti, but i get logged out every time. I’m attacking with other monsters and everything runs right. Could be something simple, maybe an update?

Some of my lvl 41 Kozu farms, when completely emptied, now give 5M resources each when they used to give near 7.5M each. Is there any explanation for this? I really don’t need my Kozus depreciating during a war.

Is Teratorn damage different now?? I used to be able to farm wilds with a certain number but that failed today by a lot.

Edit: Nm, something weird must have happened.

Okay here’s a weird one for you-
I’ve been in a battle for a bit and after making around 100 daves with my various OP, one of them never runs out of daves! It can only hold 3 at a time but every time I transfer them to a new outpost, it still has 3 in it, yet they transferred successfully and are completely useable. I haven’t opened the OP since im afraid either the infinite daves will go away or it’ll glitch me. Also whenever I initially attack and +daves when attacking, it wont let me change my catapult from pebbles to putty but counts it as an attack and I lose all the daves even though I never actually flung anything in. Did I take over a hacked OP or is this a glitch? Not that I’m complaining but I just want to make sure doing anything to the OP wont screw up my account.

hey… i have a simular problem before…(attaking)… when i sends in the monster it wont move… and later it does or not… but you cant run out of monsters…

people thinks that a bug/hack… but i say its your internet… i cant use my internet to attack players… try a friends internet and reply this if you still have the problem

I have a Nice question, not going to read through 160 Pages to see if it was already asked, but I flattened 3 of the NPC Villages, Now they aren’t in my Map, I’ve took out 2 Player town halls, What do?
