I think the answer is due to how much crew they have.

I thought it was only meant to be 3% for 1 fame, but some players do get more.

According to the thread I listed above:

"when one has fame, I think there is a different calculation incorporated in it

something like (crew/4)+fame level +1=gold taken

but that is ONLY if the fame is above 0"

ok is it attackers crew/4+victims fame +1 ?
or is it victims crew/4+victims fame +1 ?

attackers crew/
or ____________ 4 +victims fame+ 1 ?
victims crew /

maybe attackers-victims/4+victims fame=1

that's what i wanta know
or is it supposed to be something like an anti gravity formula.simpleton here would like to know,cause hey i passed all my elementry math classes yet these formulas seem to lack definative variables.
is there a pirate in the 4 seas who knows the straight answer?ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! :!:

i heard you can fix that problem by not getting hit with fame
or maybe thats just a rumour i heard

one might start to wonder if the info or formulas are just classified or are there different classifications

basically from my past experience the attack formula works like this...

1 fame attack = 3% loss

2nd half of formula works like this , for every crew member over navigation you earn .25%
----------------------------------------
for example

popcan attacks jerryrocks who had 100000 gold with 1 fame

3% 1 fame rule = 3000 gold

popcan crew of 14 vs jerry's 10 nav = 4 x .25 = 1% bonus adding an extra 1000 gold.

total loss 4% or 4000 gold. much lower than what I have been observing for the last month.

-----------------------------------------------
if this a game bug then the newbies are getting hit harder than usual and the settings need to be fixed

Another thread to take a look at:

(Fortunately it was small potatoes when it affected me, so I didn't get the good ol' outrage we see above)

thanks for the link

5.5% seems way too high to me for 1 fame , I must be getting the short end of the Random Stick lol

Post subject:  Re: Bug in Fame Calculations

From what I keep reading between the crew thing and then the random thing, just makes me think that there is a lot going on under the hood --- some we know and some we don't.

Maybe its a Superfleet Tax... ;)

sorry pop but for someone who cashes out for so much and so reguarly as you do and who takes a lot of my hard earned gold as you and your friends do so often .

If you are losing so much it only brings a smile to my face.I know i complained once myself but in your case i think its just karma So when you hit me next reme,mber i like it as a game not an income
