By now you know who I mean:-). Sry. Aye grasshopper I mean hippyman that is a question of relativity. Opimal circumstances: no angering, no lag (or minimal lag like less than 500 monsters) 100-110k per wave. With angering and some lag 50k is good. With unbearable lag and no angering 35k is good. With unbearable lag and angering forget about it.

actually, my start (waves 1-15 by my definition) is fine, if not the fastest here. It's at the beginning of the "score-zone" (starting somewhere between wave 20 and wave 42) that I fall behind everyone else...some combination of my hatred of excessive lag (oh, how i wish i could get speed hack!),and my tendancy to focusing rather hevily on supergemming rather than angering (as it is, I often feel like i'm only barely supergemming fast enough for wave 228)
... I suppose I could improve by calculating the optimal angering. (hypothetical example: given ~2 million mana, anger wave 25 to (150 million damage/wave, 10 waves allowed), calculated to be with a grade 13, a 12, 2 11's, then 10 grade 10's...this example is not based on actual calculations.).

On a side-note, I made a wave-by-wave breakdown for someone (map 15, wizard level 19). It took up most of the time i can spare for gemcraft this weekend.

Gemcraft 0 is most possibly the best game in all of AG.

Fractal,

Sorry I misaddressed, meant for hippyman. yes I know you have the fastest start no need to rub it in b:-)But I do have business w/u. Look at my pics from labeled 'work work work'. This might be what your looking for. Might be hard to "read between the pics" so if you have questios ask here or in comments. It's wave 30-60 it goes from ~4b to ~200b Pts w/200b on the track.

If this helps (or even if it doesn't) could you post your waves 1-20? Even if just for posterity? Thanks in advance;-)

hippyman

those numbers are no CE, and could vary from one Maxine to the next.

I spend more time fixing spellcheck than it spends fixing me. Previous post Maxine => machine

well i havent posted my pics yet, im not so sure that fractal has the best start anymore =p, ok maybe he beats me at wave 1-14 cuz we do have differant starts

wave 24, i began making my wave 91 angering gems arleady, i have 6 grade 14s,i hope to get 13 grade 20s(no im not suicidal i just want to score 10-12 trillion in 1 wave)

wave 24 = 1 hour per wave, it will continue this way but i can firepoewr while im here and auto mana pool while im away places

by the way, we need to give an appropriate name for wave 228.
Something fitting and will last until it is ridiculed and slapped around.

...13 grade 20's? 13 grade 20's for angering?...maybe you're not suicidal, conner, but you do seem to be "un pocito locco" (which i've probably misspelled, and means a tiny biy crazy)


now, where is that formula for score increase when angering...(I know the monsters bit, just need the details with score)...

hm...a fitting name for wave 228...
candidate one: 228 is the answer to life, the universe, and everything gemcraft.
candidate two: 228 is the question of life, the universe, and everything, where the question==how many hours does it take to beat wave 228? (and the answer=42)
but, as those are mouthfulls..
candidate three: the gemcraft grail.

no, i think a fitting name would be something with just one word, making finding the right name that much harder

oh, how i wish i could get speedhack...
hippyman, are you sure you're up to it?
gemgrade, equiavalent 11's.
11,1
12,2
13,4
14,8
15,16
16,32
17,64
18, 128
19, 256
20, 512
21, 1048

In other words, conner is planning to do 13*512~6600 grade 11's in the angering of wave 91. that's ~70 grade 11's per wave, not considering that 15-20 waves are just setting up the mana farm. you're planning 10 grade 21's, is 10,480 grade 11's. If you're planning it before wave 91, That's from 100-120 grade 11's per wave...again, not considering the waves used to set up the mana farm.
