Elimination 2019 Player Stats · · 52 likes

Here's a page full of stats that I'm updating as teams are knocked out.

It doesn't really work on mobile because it's a really big download.

To give you an idea of what it looks like, here's a small screen shot:[image: profileimages.torn.com]

(edit): Only players that made 1 hit or more made the list and none of the quitters are in the list.

The elimination-2018.html stats page has both total attacks and attacks per day for each player (hopefully I've downloaded them all correctly).

I used the following information for number of days:

team-cupcake 15 days, 12:00:00
snowflakes 15 days, 12:00:00
dongs 14 days, 10:00:00
villains 13 days, 15:00:00

Wiki Downtime Estimate · · 3 likes


For several days now, the wiki has been down for maintenance.  Can we get an estimate about when it will be restored?

I would think it would be the company with the lowest company id... https://api.torn.com/company/27?selections=profile&key= <your api key here>

Advertising Cost · · 2 likes

Keep in mind that making more customers is not really important if it costs you money. You just want to stay 10 star.

You should try to set your ad budget as low as possible to stay at 10 star.

Adjust it so that you are near the middle of the 10 star companies for income.

It counts defends lost. Also it took several hours to download the initial stats which means it is probably a little on the low side. You should consider it as about 90% to 95% accurate for tickets lost.


You can get better numbers by looking at your defends lost stats.

People seem to be slowing down as it wears on. I think you will remain #1 in attacks / day.

Dumbest thing you ever did in Torn? ·

I paid BodyBagger to beat Duke for the mission before all the NPC farming happened, but forgot to accept the Duke mission first. >.<

Craps 'stuck' ·

I've placed a lot of craps bets and every time you have 1 token left, you can spin twice and get the UI to do this. This is a bug where the craps UI doesn't properly count down to zero tokens and lets you make an extra spin.

It's not really a problem though because you can play again when you get more tokens.

Craps "algorithm severely flawed" ·

I play craps on torn a lot. As far as the dice go it seems just as random as any other casino game. I don't know how you can really change the algorithm since it's just die1 = rand(1,6) followed by die2 = rand(1,6)

Maybe he means the UI for the game.  The betting is clunky and on mobile you have to scroll up / down a lot do to the betting / roll. 

Honestly though, I rather it not be changed at all until I get into top 10 losses

I think it depends on which language you select. Here's an example in python 3.6



#!/usr/bin/env python
import argparse
import requests

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
description = 'Create a csv file of stocks symbol, forecast and current price'
)
parser.add_argument('api_key', help='The api key to use')
parser.add_argument('csv_file', help='The file to create with the csv contents')
args = parser.parse_args()

response = requests.get('https://api.torn.com/torn/?selections=stocks&key=' + args.api_key)
stocks = response.json()['stocks']

with open(args.csv_file, 'w') as f:
    f.write('{},{},{}n'.format("symbol","forecast","current price"))
    for stock in stocks.values():
        f.write('{},{},{}n'.format(stock['acronym'],stock['forecast'],stock['current_price']))


# edit -> fixed erroneous description about api key

Ranking up is different for each company type. Here is an example for a candle shop 73517.  It's on the slow slide, but can provide a general idea if you have all the education done and the stock blocks.

To get to 10 star, try to make the most money possible.
