TOPIC:

Hi, this is my first post, so forgive me if I do anything wrong.

I've noticed that my company is removed after a while when I'm disconnected. It is fair, because when I'm not playing I shouldn't block slot for anyone else.

From the other hand: I want to compete on long/extreme servers (1000M/15.000M CV) and the only way for me to do that is: start in evening, disconnect at night, finish in the morning (or check if I won/lost).

Should I:
1. Leave my machine connected during the night?
2. Disconnect, and my company would not be cleared due to long/extreme goal?
3. Assume that I cannot do anything because my inactivity will clear the company.

Which one is correct?
Which is not against the Rules and good taste?

Thanx in advance and greetings for whole BTPro community!

you could logout and hope for someone else to stay online to prevent the "1 hour no players reset" timer. or you could stay logged in yourself, or start early, and complete it the same day =)

You can type !resetinfo in chat to check the settings for the server on automatic reset (1 year takes roughly 13.5 minutes). The 15 billion doesn't have an automatic reset, all other servers do.

The only way to avoid this, is to stay in your company.

Also, there will be no points awarded if you're not in your company when the goal of the server is reached.

So you should either make sure you can play for long enough so that you or a competitor can reach the goal of the server, or you should leave your machine connected while you're AFK, which is fine to do btw.

Thanx for both answers. I didn't know about "1 hour no players reset" and forgot about !resetinfo. I like the idea of being connected whole night but is it really appropiate/acceptable?

ofcourse it is, 15billion isnt a number you could earn in just a few hours, that is one of the reasons why the auto-reset is disabled on that server =)

Yeah, I know. I suppose it would be 12-15 hours in my case (taking into account my experience and "15 fastest games" list). I will start with 1 billion to verify my assumptions.
