 Just curious as to what the longest SST run anyone has made without busting. What made me wonder is a run tonight of approximately 20 mil before busting. I have had runs to 10 mil fairly often, but tonight's run lasted a long time (blasted steal delay) and I've never cashed like that before on a single run. I was using two colts for the SST.

You mean the entire run of turns?or 1 port pair?
Wy world sst routinely gets about 5-7 mill per port pair.I have seen higher but never really watched.Think I will now. _________________ My scripts can be downloaded at http://www.grimytrader.com/. Ore *****. Even in my signature it's blocked out. |

I had a run (SDT-during CORPWARS) that was somewhere in the 18-19 Mil range. Longest SDT run that I have ever seen. I have the cap here somewhere.

i was there for zoso's run on SDT which is much easier to bust than SST, he did net 19 mill and ran down about 1600 turns in one run, it was the sickest run i have seen by far. before that the most i had seen in one run was about 9 mill

It was for 1 port pair before bust. I think I probably should have bought my lottery ticket last night since going that long is pure luck. _________________ / Promethius / Enigma / Wolfen / "A man who has no skills can be taught, a man who has no honor has nothing."

To do an apples/apples comparison, we should be talking turns, not cash... but its the cash that is more memorable. My longest SST was in a solo game, about 800 turns, ~12M.
So, in short, a 20M run... you rule. +EP+ _________________ Claim to Fame: only guy to ever crack the TW haggle algorithm, and fig/shield/hold price formula, twice. |

when I was testing my team sdt script a few years ago, I had an SDT run in the 1200 turn range, but that was in an unlim turns simulation, with the blue buying 1k shields everytime it went to dock. heh. 1 nice run out of 300,000 turns.

Well, I think it's official Your run rules. Zoso's sounds impressive too.
Now, anyone want to release figures on how much $/hr their steal scripts are clocking? heh |

Really what you want to compare is number of consecutive steals. Money, turns, etc all vary between ports, haggle routines, and whether you're doing sst/ssm/sdt.

... and TradeWars has a way of evening things out; less than 10 steals today and busted!
