we made more credits than others doing missions not doing the same one just doing missions we came out with what we did and it got fixed. obviously people who win the game make more credits than others and that is all we did. we just knew it was working. we werent like 'i bet the fleet cost calc isnt on so lets abuse it so that way we are #1' we didnt do that we just played. there was no click f5 button and you can do the same encounter it was do missions.

Not everyone who wins the game finds a bug/loophole and exploits it before reporting.

How is this any different from missusing any other coding error, the auto refresh bugs etc?

Well to awnser your question in a compleatly civial matter EVERYBODY was using your so called bug because Everybody was playing on the same ruleset some of us more skillfully used it to gain an advantage. Isint that the whole point of the game? To use your skills to out run the other players.

Ok my last post in this topic.

I understand how you have been playing to get your position, that you went to trouble to find out the perfect way to do missions. And I do understand how all the time you spend would feel wasted if you do not get recognised and it would feel you are called a cheater.


But the thing I do not understand is how you do not call this a bug, you yourself must have felt like this wasn't supposed to be happening otherwise you wouldn't have reported it. And if this wasn't some error in the game it wouldn't need fixing.

I think you all know how I think about it and as I do not see me change my opinion in the near future, it is futile for me to contineau discussing it.

well i cant help but agree that in the past all similar situations people have been punished for abusing a bug in the game.

my point was that emy would never stop crying if he got reset or if he didnt get a reward so i figured it was better for the whole situation to just forget about it and more onto next round.

I'd just like to add a small point which I feel is relevant to this debate....

Until Emi fixed the problem, everyone had the same opportunity to discover the oversight, therefore the ranking positions were fair at that point.
The moment the update was implemented, a greater issue then arose. It made it virtually impossible for anyone who hadn't used/discovered the problem to have anything to play for.  This isn't fair, and thats why the round should be ended quickly and preferably with reduced rewards and halls listings. 
At the moment, anyone in the top 10 is guarenteed a placing, 11th is a million miles away. Remember this server was set up to try and find an alternative way to play SpaceO which is more equal and balanced, this has not happened.
It seems all parties here are fighting their own corners, but please look for the good of the game. I know its hard for the ones arguing for a reward that havent had a halls listing before, thats why I think there should be a compromise of a reduced reward.
