Good Luck on the log.

Some more runs.
Not going all that strong lately.
Slow mining this week, migration mobs to kill

Cycled: 10444.43ped TT
TT results: -1205.33ped (88.46%)
MU results: +333.90ped (103.04%)

I could swear my hitrate has been extremely low everywhere lately, too bad i didn't start tracking hitrate when i started, CBA starting in the middle of the log

-> Data spreadsheet

 

[Arrovs]

All my migration time its 20%(atleast i hope it vents as high in average) - some time it drops to one claim from 20 sometimes come to 3 from l0, but i vish it could be 25%.
Vill see vhat vill happen soon.

 

[Cail]

Was a bit longer dry period, buut it got covered with one good run in the end, so far biggest claim of this log, 456ped Gazzurdite with lvl 5 amp.
Hit lvl 38 prospector, took around 12.500 peds in TT cycled from lvl 37 -> 38.
Still on the green with MU, yey.

Cycled: 12819.80ped TT
TT results: -1192.55ped (90.70%)
MU results: +652.46ped (104.83%)

-> Data spreadsheet

Edit: How many drops does it take to get Something Out Of The Ordinary? Think i dropped around 10k bombs before my break too since the last one i saw.

As far as I know OOO comes in waves. If you hit a dry period expect to have a few OOO's coming soon. Just hope it's Angel Scales

I changed my spreadsheet a bit, i'm now collecting every month as their own sheet,
for example:
Cail's mining log - 2011 August

And keeping one "Overall" spreadsheet which includes past months and current month:
Cail's mining log - Overall

Since i did do 23 runs in just over a week, it'd get quite bloated if i kept it all in one sheet, this is neater and tidyer

 

[Cail]

Starting to hope that the 90% returns do hold true.
Why does every noob get ubers/towers/ATH's when they start keeping logs?

Cycled: 18019.89 TT
TT results: -2443.83ped (86.44%)
MU results: +23.43ped (100.12%)

Breaking even with 122.9% average markup, shrug.

 

[Schism]

Well I believe you are doing pretty ok.

Eventually you will get that hof or couple of globals that will make you closer to 90 % TT again and increase profits

 

[Cail]

Well this keeps going brilliantly.

Cycled: 19988.83 TT
TT results: -2994.43ped (85.02%)
MU results: -299.31ped (98.59%)

Cheers, i'm sure it'll pick up in the short future too.
And, pics of what exactly? Nothing much to show for at this point
Biggest hit so far 456ped Gazz, could upload that, i'm sure to upload anything with 2 X's in it though

 

[Piotr]

I seriously hope my tt return will go up, cause from 2k unamped drops i got bck 55% tt return, not one global, not even XII. However pvp mu somewhat saved me from going broke (200 ped loss after mu) but its pretty much bs whats going on.

 

[Cail]

Cycled: 21770.39 TT
TT results: -3538.33ped (83.75%)
MU results: -658.57ped (97.15%)

Yup, yup, still nothing much to show.

[Cail]

It did go a bit better then.

Cycled: 23670.89 TT
TT results: -3471.51ped (85.33%)
MU results: -321.53ped (98.72%)

Hit a 349ped Gazz HoF, and obviously this forum doesn't accept PNG images, CBA converting it.
-1104 peds from 90% returns.

-> Data spreadsheet

 

[Cail]

Run #50 done.
Some niceness after the new VU, 10 minutes, 2 HoFs (well, i'm not gonna count a 100pedder as a HoF since the HoF list just wasn't filled), but a nice 315 pedder Niksarium sure does count.

Cycled: 25571.65 TT
TT results: -3361.25ped (86.86%)
MU results: +184.24ped (100.68%)

Popped a bit on the green side with markup now, that's cool, still a bit short from 90% TT returns.
And some eyecandy:


Also unlocked Fashion Design while drilling up the 100pedder Niks heh:

Cycled: 29214.67 TT

MU results: -618.80ped (98.01%)

Went onto red again.
Found the first SOOTO of this log, 1.05ped angel scales, yay.
Hit lvl 39 prospector on the last run (roughly 16.5k peds cycled after hitting lvl 38).
So, how 'bout those 90% returns huh?

[Cail]

Small update, brilliant mining again.

 

[Norm]

Looks like your results suddenly changed after the VU update, which is exactly what happened to me. I had 8 or 9 runs and my max TT return was 78%, with a normal amount of globals and a normal hit-rate, but my average claim size was really low. I wondered how others were doing post-update. Probably just coincidence, but it prompted me to head over to Rocktropia and check out the mining there...and of course I had a 152% return on my first run there. Too bad I decided to go unamped to check out the new areas.

Anyway, good luck...hope it turns around quickly

I'm down on 5k since 1st of September, started way before of VU update, seems like this is global.

Looks like Brahma inhales. (smile.jpg)

About the 90% returns, i would say under 5k probes is definitely not enough for good overall tt returns. Check out my log, that took a lot of bombs to get to 90% returns

Saying that 84% is not bad considering you are using amps

Yes, well, 11800 drops atm. (or, 12k since i did a 200 drop run this morning and didn't have time to put it in yet), just only started the log recently so, have to see

Well, no Happy birthday swirlies here.
Only happy here is that i got one run with a little bit of profit with markup.
Still sinking.

Starting to close in on 80% TT returns.

[Cail]

Are there any amped miners that can make profit on markup?
The amp markup is eating a lot of my profits, and the ore markup just doesn't cut it.

im starting to feel this as my future return too, but im even not using amps and taxed areas.
And this game ignores any skill points too. It dont makes any changes in success. Even shovn success rate dont shov true colors.
Ok, too much said. Keep it more 70k peds and it should stay ze same.

What amps? What MU do you pay? What MU do you get? What gear do you use?
