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.

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.

Not anytime soon (sorted by real rank this time, samples from last 24 hours). Give it about 3 months or so:

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.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

  • Varine Varine:
    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
