Felyndral Neighborhood Watch

[DeletedUser]

Question: Katwijk, how up to date is your most recent accounting? I joined this game just last week and seem to be located further into the map. I assume by reading this thread that I must have taken a vacant slot. I am surrounded by cities, although not all of them active apparently. Is there hope then that some of these inactive cities may be deleted and replaced by more active players?

If you join a Fellowship, then you're assured of 20+ active traders and visitor. While there's certainly an incentive for visiting the neighbors, it's more about escaping from the 50% markup for radio button trades, and improving your boosts. The extra cash and supplies are nice, but I prefer to design my cities such that I can ignore visits and quests most of the time.

The information was current at the time of the post, and I repost any time there's more than a couple of predictable changes. At the moment the threshold is right at 60 days for vacating an inactive city.

You're part of the second wave, you can't really tell who has been there for how long, but PART of your neighbors have already survived the first round of removals, so they could "quit playing" randomly. Half of folks who were part of your incoming wave are, more predictably, going to be cleared out 60 days from when they started.

There's a bunch of interesting stuff today. One of the technical issues is that in Ring 244 at 12 o'clock, genevadugger, we had a jog to ring 244 that was messing up a lot of our distribution theories. The "missing" sectors were backfilled, so there's no jog anymore, thank goodness.

We filled 3 interior vacancies in Rings 152, 154 & 156. There are no new vacancies in our 1 o'clock radial sample, and the outermost ring 244 has rotated from 1:45 around to 3:55.

For those of you who are fond of Cut and Paste tables from Excel, the recent Xenforo 1.5.5 release is SMARTER about how it handles Excel Ranges.

• If you have a spreadsheet with LEFT ALIGNED cells, and the appropriate columns for the BBCode tables, you NO LONGER need to strip out the linefeeds. If you have any right aligned cells they will look OK on the first pass, but a repost will try to honor the alignment (which might be what you want).
• Posts still ignore font changes, so it's a bit of a swamp that we'll need to drain before we'll be able to tell exactly what's happening.
• The previously necessary technique of buffering the BBCode through an Excel text box doesn't work any more. It refuses to post a message that it claims is TOO LONG, and you can't even look at the data using the BBCode editor. The interpreter may be balking because of the LACK of linefeeds, but there some indication that is trying to honor FONTs and COLORs from the Excel text box. Or there maybe there's just something peculiar about my data. I'm still trying to nail down the exact restrictions.
• Further tests indicate that you can enter the original edit box code DIRECTLY into the BBCode editor, and everything works just fine. If you try to paste from the Excel text box directly into the Rich Text Editor, however, you're limited to a dozen table rows, the interpreter hangs up on "too long" and won't even let you switch to the BBCode editor, after the fact. So the limitation is apparently associated with the Rich Text Editor trying too hard to make sense out of a long table.

So far the new 1.5.5 XenForo update is EASIER to use with Excel, because the Rich Text Editor is now happy with Excel Ranges, and you can simply skip the buffering step that was previously needed to strip out the linefeeds.

We're intentionally showing two endpoints for the outermost spiral. We've reported a bug whereby the flat top of the global map hexagon does NOT fill from 11 o'clock to 1 o'clock, as one would expect, but rather it backfills concurrent with the forward fill from 1 o'clock to 3 o'clock.

Over the past couple of days we have vacated and refilled cities in Rings 160, 162, & 164. We've also had enough immigrants to add two more full rings to the global map.

We added four new rings of immigrants today, which is the most ever. I'm now comfortable with my understanding of how the map develops, so I'll be updating this thread less frequently.

So I've read through this thread and I still can't figure the odds that if I started a new city in this world, I will fill an interior vacancy rather than be deposited on the outside edge of the map as my current city in Winyandor.
Curiously, I am left wondering if there has actually been any isolated cities relocated within the same world to replace a vacancy.

 

[DeletedUser61]

• You'll nearly always get in interior slot mid-week. The map ONLY expands when ALL of the interior cities are still secure. So avoid Sunday Afternoons, because folks "try it out" during the weekend, and that's when we see our big surges.
• Cities are never moved once they're established. We're not happy about that, but the developers have only said that moving cities would be very difficult, so it's not going to happen any time soon.

 

[DeletedUser]

I started last night (monday night), but I don't see any of my neighbors names listed here, so I assume I'm on an outer slot, unfortunately.

 

[DeletedUser1972]

well its quite possible they are sick and tired of hunting down the server that we need to logon onto as i stated in my post on here,Iand I do like the game i was catching upto alot the top players with not just 1 but with both my Dawgs just built my Magic building and Flying Boat n my nain and been playing only week at the most even stupid Kabam put a server logon up these games beat R2Games and Kabam Well at least Elvenar does not sure of the rest

I know this thread is a few months old, but I hope this will be read.

I have recently lost a couple cities from my map - somewhere between April 10 and 14, 2016. I have read through this thread and, though I don't understand all of what was explained. I understand enough to know some cities have been removed back in February. I have found nothing stating what may have happened a few days ago to the two cities on my map. As I am also on the edge of the map (I don't know what ring, or node or whatever), therefore, losing a couple cities is somewhat important. More so, if more cities will be removed. On the flip side, gaining 2 (or more) ACTIVE players would be awesome!

Has another round of removals occurred? If so, how often is this to occur? How soon are the empty slots expected to be filled?

I also am situated close to three cities where the Main Halls are in the process of upgrading, no culture buildings are available to 'polish,' and the Builders' Hut has it's capacity of boosts. Additionally, many, if not most, of the cities around me seem to be abandoned, though many of these do, at least, have a culture structure which I can 'polish' for coins. Quite a number of players have seemingly lost interest in the game.

I feel a regular removal of inactive cities/players (and consequently adding active ones) is imperative to keeping the interest of many new players. When a new player sees so many inactive cities, it does not encourage play. The idea of trading without a fee to the close neighbors which are 'discovered' on the map is great, but is negated by the fact so many neighbors are inactive.

Yes, I am in an active Fellowship, but I ALSO make regular visits to my close neighbors to boost my coinage.

Though I am not truly complaining, but voicing a couple concerns. I dare not make a complaint without at least attempting to offer a suggestion:

I see where inactive players/cities are placed on a suspend/remove & replace list once a 'Where are you?' email remains unanswered.

Perhaps the developers can develop some algorithm or program to replace these inactive cities, individually, as new players join. This can probably be set up to be done automatically (from the list) and could eliminate lump exodus and open city spaces.
Because the more latent inactive cities will most likely be in the interior and the outer rings will fill more slowly with such a program (if ever), perhaps indicate every 2nd or 3rd new player to replace an inactive city and the others to fill the outer rings, or vice versa. The actual distribution would certainly depend upon the number of new players, and number of inactive cities.
In this way, precious server space is used optimally, open city spaces are eliminated, players are added into the world map interior and exterior somewhat evenly, and the oldest inactive cities are replaced regularly and in a timely, orderly way.

Maybe this can help solve a seemingly ongoing problem.
If I should post this somewhere else, please let me know. Thanks.

There are two answer to your concerns: Current and Soon™

The current circumstance is that everything is based on a concentric spiral.

• New immigrants occupy the open slot that's the closest to the center of the map
• We're still growing a bit, so even cities that are on the outer ring will eventually get some neighbors
• Inactive, low-level, non-premium cities are lagged for removal after 30 days, and are currently being removed after 60 days or so
• Because folks arrived together they'll age out together, so the apparent effect if an expanding ring of vacate cities that currently reoccupied within a couple of weeks.
• While the US region is still grow fairly fast, most of the other regions are not, and the folks who had the misfortune of being located on the outer fringes of the map are in hurt status.

The developers have indicated that they're working on an improved immigration algorithm, and Provincial Tournaments have been released on the Beta server which creates and additional demand for well populated neighborhoods. You'll need to skip over to the Beta forum if you want to follow that discusstion

• I'm using Chrome, so Ctrl+ScrollWheel is a zoom, or you can use the menu zoom that's available in Chrome and also in other major browsers. Zooming is not actually very useful, because you can't read anything and it messes up your city screens as well. You're zooming everything that's in that particular browser tab.
• I actually hate the idea of allowing bots as neighbors, because that approach just papers over a major structural problem and delays the implementation of a real solution. Isolated cities need to shift toward the center of the map.
• The actual criteria is inactive for 30+ days, UNLESS the city is sponsored by a premium account or has reached the end of Chapter III.
• There's a lot more detail over at https://us.forum.elvenar.com/index.php?threads/nine-near-neighbors.1248/#post-7835, Map consolidation is fundamentally important topic, but it's very very messy.

I have no way of knowing how recently somebody logged on, other than noticing when their scores change, but I'm expecting the following cities to get zapped within a few days.

• Ring 72, 1 o'clock Navaeh
• Ring 76, 1 o'clock fcaler

I'm also watching the vacant cities to determine if they're merely filled with new immigrants, we're getting about 15 immigrants per day, OR if isolated cities ever be shifted to what would hopefully be a better location nearer the center of the map. Note that it will be several days until the pruning reaches the edge of the map hexagon, which is what will isolate some active cities, but Shizuka's city in Ring 242 between 5 o'clock and 6 o'clock is the city to watch. If immigrants are being used to fill up the vacant cities, then Shizuka's city has been hung out to dry.

The following table starts with Nanabarb's city, which is at the exact center of the us3: Felyndral map, and then follows the 1 o'clock diagonal for the first 80 rings. You'll note that a handful of the cities are vacant at the moment, and tracking exactly what happens to those cities, and how soon, is the point of this exercise.

I'm sampling ONE of the spokes on a bicycle wheel.

The actual algorithm uses a spiral, so each spoke on the wheel will see similar activity.

The new move algorithm will move you CLOSER to the hub of the wheel, but only if you're a active players who's surrounded by quite a few Goldmines.
