Post subject:  Clarification as far as Fame

Ok, so I get the whole Fame thing--- but just to clarify, If your fame is 0 and you are attacked and they succeed, then they should get 1% of your gold.

For instance, if I had 1300 gold, and someone attacked, with me having 0 fame, then they should get 13 gp right? 'Cause I ended with 0 fame, and was attacked just a lil while ago and the attacker got 62 gp, which is closer to 5%. Did the fame calc change? Did I miss something? I mean I look at my stats and it states 0 fame, but I can accept that there could be a display error.

Interesting. Before I went back into the game, was attacked again by the same person, same money and fame and it was 12 gold this time.

Momentary lack of math?

they attacked you again? hopefully it was a different day since you can't attack someone 2 times in a single day..

As for the gold calculation, that is a little odd with a 0 fame...but once you go above 0, then you might find the calculation a little off due to a somewhat hidden factor, me thinks

Post subject:  Was definately zero fame

Chronology was in a nutshell, I played early in the day, ended with 0 fame.
Got attacked by user late in the day, 62 gold.
Got attacked very early next day, 12 gold.
Then I played my moves for that next day.

There wasn't an opportunity for fame to change between the two attacks for me. I was not in the game at that time.

There is an undisclosed factor in the attack calculations that is causing this.

It's not a problem with the system -- it just adds a little more randomness. Smaller values will have a larger margin of error, though.
