Is there any available information on the concept of "Double Dipping" Would dearly like to find a comprehensive explanation on such so that I can copy and paste, and that I don't have to run thru the explanation time and time again with new arrivals !
Any assistance would be very much appreciated - thks

Great Buildings produce their collections in one of two occassions:
(1) Every 24 hrs
(2) When it lvls up (resets 24 hr timer)

Double dipping is when you collect from the GB and then immediately after collecting lvl up the building. This results in two collections instead of a single collection for the same amount of time doubling your income

In order for it to work it has to be directly after collecting. The closer the timer gets to when the next collection would have been finished the more likely you are to cancel out the normal collection.


Is that good enough for a copy paste?

The swap threads are for players with Great Buildings (GBs). Rather than just pump Forge Points (FPs) if blueprints/FPs/medals player put their FPs into each others GBs. The swap mechanism ensures that for each FP you put into another players GB you get 1 back. That way all players mutually benefit and no-one loses. Example of a swap thread at work: X places10FP into W's Tower of Babel (ToB) and asks that the next player contributes 10FP to their Lighthouse of Alexandra (LoA). This would normally get abbreviated to simply "LoA please" The next player Y then contributes 10FP to X's LoA and states to which of their GBs they want the next player to contribute. So "CdM please" The next player W then contributes 10FP to Y's CDM and states to which of their GBs they want the next player to contribute. So "ToB please" etc etc etc. It is worth mentioning that it is polite practice never to level a players GB. Always leave it 1FP short of the next level. That is because most GBs give a bonus reward such as Goods every 24hours. When you level a GB it gives the owner the reward and resets the reward collection clock. So the optimum process for the owner of a GB is to wait for the collection clock to give the reward, collect, make a 1FP contribution to take the GB to it's next level, collect the instant reward, Effectively a double collection. May the Forge Points be with you. PS:-Thematic swaps are swaps that only accept a few GBs (only the ones said in the name ).
-You can level a Zeus , a TOR or a GB in the mud . -Contribution must be done right after posting .
- A free swap thread is a swap thread in wich the donator chooses himself in what GB he's gonna put his FP

You could write it yourself. Only need to do it once. Why should others do it for you?

Whether we like it or not - people thrive the best when we're all interdependent on each other instead of trying to do everything ourselves.

We could make all our own clothes, food, computers, essays etc or we could do the things we're best at, and ask for help where available on the things we're not so great at
