Late last night, I read this on chat:

"lol, I make 120k per tick! vault is pointless now"
Player: Triface
Overall Rank: 62nd
Megahertz Rank: 114th
Bandwidth Rank: 635th
Crew: LUElinks

Message:
I spend all my money any chance I get and upgrade only Mhz and vault so good luck.

He was talking to his LUElink buddies...sometimes a non-working crew chat is a good thing, no?
I'm sure one of you can give him a run by tomorrow....
 
the virus is really worth it, especially while you are sleeping. I'm on level 5 and i'm already up to over 13k/tick. Woke up this morning to around 200k credits, luckily no one attacked me
 
After one day of implementation, I'm ready to declare operation excel spreadsheet a success 😉

Err... I meant level 5. I did it end up selling to get it.
 
egads, I'm sliding backwards in rank. Thank god no one else was using yoyo's spreadsheet! I had over 250,000 credits available at one point.
 
Just upgraded to rank 5 virus

Infected Machines: 1,891
Income Per Tick: 9,455


Hey Vegita, what's the scouter say about the Income per Tick?


ITS OVER NINE THOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSSSSAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDDDDD
 
I posted the prototype above.

Steps are
- paste in the current ranking (I did 150 to 600, but when I get back to Madison I'll do 1 to 500 maybe?)
- The left side of the sheet calculates ranking change since the last time data was entered.

If the player has not moved up ranks during the data pasted in, I assume that they're not actively spending.

Then I go through those targets and look up their stats to see if I can get past the defense. I found a few targets that are quite juicy using this method.

If we can get someone with coding experience to strip out the rankings every half hour, I would assume that it would be simple enough to build a tool like this considering I just did it by hand using excel.
 
Wow, I got hit hard by one person several times while I was sleeping. Did anyone notice that alot of clan members are hitting you? I seem to be getting hit by whatCD and such alot.

Mainly just people I've hit in the past attack me 😛

I've been getting hit really hard so far today. have lost over 2000 infected machines. building up my defenses 🙂
 
Here are a couple others, if it helps anyone (last night's info)
18464 = 256th,
19684 = 249th

Of course, these may have changed, but at least you know that if you have under 19k kbps, don't attack someone ranked 240th in mhz

Oh, and I climbed back into 1st. 🙂 I should be upgrading the virus to 6 by tonight.
 
Here's another tip (although, it's pretty trivial) - when buying massive amounts of mhz or kbps, don't bother with the math. I just finally realized this - I had been sitting here, actually bothering to figure out exactly how many of each I could afford. Just put in numbers more than you can afford in each one (fill each in with 5 or something), and it'll just buy all that you can afford & drop the rest. Saves about 10 seconds of vulnerable time (and, those 10 seconds would have been all the difference last night & saved me a few 10's of 1000's of credits.)
 
If you guys haven't figured out this too, you can actually sell and buy at the same time. So let's say you want to sell two lesser and purchase a more powerful upgrade, put two in the sell column, and one in the buy column, it will automatically do the math for you and purchase whatever you can afford.
