Game TheHelper Town - The Official TheHelper.net MyMiniCity City

I believe the #1 city is constantly hit with the CMC Booster program so the only way to catch up is to somehow match those super high numbers that the huge proxy list they have and whatever else they do - and catching up does not pass them.
 
4th superskyscraper and rank 59!

Hey guys 20K mark!
 
I wonder if the minibotville uses a bot?

Given their growth in the last 24 hours, they've got quite a large number of "unique" visitors. Yes, it's most likely fully automated.

We should be able to hit #13 with our current growth, and if we keep our current trend.
I'm going to google minibotville and see what I can find on em.

I am going to be implementing something in the next month that will increase our growth probably double. I don't know how much more I will be able to go after that but it is possible I could even triple or quadruple it if I spend the time to do it. It will take a while to do though and there is a point of diminishing returns and once we get up there it will be a lot of work to maintain. We will just have to see.
 
Nothing you can really do to help at this point. We get the majority of our visits from the Link Exchanges that I work - I do Yarolds, Tend My City, Hydra System, Utopia, AutoClics and MiniVille Site - and sometimes minivisite even though it is spyware laden. I usually run most of these for kjs-corner as well as a couple for my friends at paztopia.

It is fairly easy to double what we have by the same basic priniciple as WoW bots farm gold. Once it gets implemented though it is something that one person can run.
 
We are pretty big now and you cannot look at the loss of a few population as being a problem anymore. I have lots of things going on (clicks aimed at our city) and unfortunately that is going to cause an inbalance from time to time. Not all the things I am doing have the best balance algorithms in and alot of times I am just pushing population and letting other things catch up.

If you want to help find some good proxies and add them to a list you can give me in text format that I can submit to CMC forums to get in the VIP program.
 
Note to self and everyone.
Do not use the multi-link opener when on the CMC forums click list hting.
I can't read the language they're giving me but I think there was too many connections from my IP or something.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.

    Or even third party. Like if you don't have an original one in a functional condition, you cannot play this game properly. Like yeah the keyboard mods exist, but I think those are BARELY functional
  • Varine Varine:
    And since almost all of my programming experience is with defunct shit now, I figure my best place is helping preserve legacy stuff. Which I don't know how to do necessarily, but I need some kind of a hobby and figuring out how older things worked is the only shit that really interests me. Well soldering and restoration is fun too, but no one is bringing me new stuff to fix and restore, so it's mostly old shit, and I LOVE OG Xbox so much. I want to make sure it can function as long as possible, until someone can effectively emulate it at least. I have like 15 I was going to fix over the winter and didn't get to.

  • Varine Varine:
    I also have a couple OG gameboys, but idk if I can do that without like, manufacturing new parts that no one makes anymore and I can't do that right now
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Currently in the middle of getting the probate process going. We're doing the informal probate process.

  • Varine Varine:
    A probate is usually done with a will, yes? If so I am sorry for your loss

  • The Helper The Helper:
    Yeah Tom, me too sorry for your loss buddy my mom told me she finds out her olds friend died from Google searching them. She had not talked to one of her old friends in a year and found out she died from Google. Also another one in the same session. RIP all of them my sincere condolences Tom

    We have some elderly guests that regularly come hang out at the bar at the end of the night, and every once in a while we don't see someone for a few weeks and then someone shows up with their obituary.
  • Varine Varine:
    We usually let them do their memorials there in the morning if they want to and I'll make them some snacks and drinks. There was one guy named Tom that came in like every night and would sit by himself and get a bunch of soup and a glass of wine. idk why but he LOVED our fucking soup, like he would order a fucking quart of it at a time and would always get so sad when we stop doing it for the summer.

  • Varine Varine:
    But he also loved our calamari, which is another thing I hate but it sells super well so I can't change it. There was one day he came in and was asking me how to make it, because he tried to at home once in the off season when we stop running it and he really wanted it lol
  • Varine Varine:
    I think he's one of the only people I've made recipes for for free because he really wanted a broccoli cheddar, and it was like dude I don't have a recipe, it's just whatever I have, but here, this is how you do it
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think he ever figured out how to do the calamari in a pan though, like idk how to do that either. He was afraid of the at home deep fryers though and it's like yeah, that's fair, I am too
  • Varine Varine:
    He was just such a sweet old man, we had two servers pregnant and they held a baby shower together, he was soooooo fucking excited to get to see a baby. Unfortunately he died a month or so before they were born
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So I decided to Google some people that I had not seen or heard from in a while and sure enough one of my old best friends, we had a falling out years ago but whatever, find out he died of Pancreatic Cancer in January. I have also lost a few of my closer acquaintances from growing up the last year. Getting old - people die - I kinda thought it was going to be this way a few years ago....

  • The Helper The Helper:
    Forum running super slow again
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Not really clear from the stats as to what is causing the slowness.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    We get a lot of guest traffic so it may just be the load is getting too high and not from any particular source.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Looks like the server is maxed out on CPU.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Oh it looks like a lot of the traffic is Silkroad Forums. That domain isn't protected by Cloudflare.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    But the old Silkroad site is still on its own server. I just had a test site set up on this server for it.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I just disabled that test site. Let's see if that helps the load.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Looks much better already.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I had actually forgot about the Silkroad site. I had asked
  • The Helper The Helper:
    SD Ryoko about it and he said the couple of people left on there really like it, that was a few years ago, maybe I should check back
  • jonas jonas:
    I guess when you're getting old, and the last day of soup season draws near, you start wondering
  • jonas jonas:
    will I make it to the start of the next season? or was this the last time I'll ever have my favorite dish?
