Powerplay Arissa Lavigny-Duval Power Play Cycle 14

[Lord of the Isles]

Wrong week to be away it seems..
Could probably have put in 15k of effective fortification.

Trouble is, it was hard to know what was most effective when so much of the undermining was ninja stuff - enemies not cashing in their merits until the last few hours. At 02:00 GMT (when I stopped) we had a buffer of about +380 CC but that melted.

Oh well, back to the drawing board. First job is to jettison this full load of Corruption Reports in my hold...

Undermine/fortify system is badly designed (IMO). Cycle is one week long, but promotes night/last minute camping.

Also logic:
1. Some guys wreck havoc in ALD system.
2. ALD people are fine.
3. Same guys deliver reports about their deeds to enemy power.
4. ALD - everybody loses their minds (turmoil).

Sorry about those Corruption Reports.

We need to start treating the in-game GalNet system reports as exit polling. It simply isn't accurate. Which unfortunately means we need to recruit more fortifiers and have them do what y'all do every week. Start at the top and work your way down. I have to admit that I've fallen behind in daily fortification duties over the past few weeks. Granted, I haven't played the game much over the past few weeks, but I'll get back into it. I fortified before the tick for 6 hours straight. Unfortunately, I was low on funds, cargo space, and allotment, so while I helped, I didn't help enough. I'll get back to that, as we're probably going to need massive amounts of fortification over the next couple weeks.

So that was fun.

Great work on fortification throughout the week, pilots.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it was enough.

Tonight was a true example of Ninja Undermining.

About a dozen systems went from 0-11% to 101% over the course of six hours. Half of them in the last 40 minutes.

We'll see what the damage is in a half an hour.

In any case, this is an example of mass using of "Ninja Undermining bug". FD aware of the problem for a long time , but did nothing. Try to deal with this vulnerability is useless. We can not fortify everything. But we can play in this game too. Let's burn the galaxy . Maybe then FD pay attention . I remember one TURMOIL, when they have been able to fix the problem for the day.

I don't think it's a bug, but a feature.

If we can't fortify everything, then it deserves to be undermined like it was this week. Without fortification, these control systems will not remain loyal to the Senator.
