Yo, there be some dude up in my neighborhood who signed in once back in October- got 1 influence, and ain't never played since den. That fool be Capo of my block!

Now y'all know I believe that children are the future, but I lose ma focus and jack that chile. My bad cuz The Don got his back and sez I'm attackin too weak of a playa. WTF Don?

My motto always be 'one love' but this fool be like a thorn in ma side. I know he's out dere on his $5 droid gaming some tetris, while I be bringing hard iPhone-style.

So ma question be: wat up wid dat?

Peace y'all.

Build a turf on top of his, so instead if a thorn in your side he'll be a dollar in your pocket.

I see how it be, I thought we's all playin a game up in here- but dis is serious bidness. Let me break down in different terms...

Ahem

Obviously becoming Capo of area is based upon influence that was the first thing I tried; however, there are other considerations. First, how often do the game servers reassign Capo- on a nighly basis? weekly? Second, should the perimeter of my zone completely envelope the current Capo's? Shouldn't it suffice that they both be in the same town. For that matter, how are the algorithms in the game delineating the end of one town and the beginning of the next? Is it based on zipcode data or something else. Finally, are the game servers taking into account how long the current capo has been capo to decide who becomes capo.

Not that it would really help you, but if you offed all your property and got your influence low enough you could probably capture his turf.
EE Zee Dec 21, 2009

This guy is driving me nuts, he has 1 turf with influence 3, I have him surrounded with 3 turfs influence 28, 28, and 35--- and his is capo of the town! I think the capo assignment algorithm is either flawed or I am smoking too much crack again!

Must be some good crack or u dont zoom out and see whole city most likely
its
bigger than a
block and u can see his other turfs
EE Zee Dec 21, 2009

Nah, I click on his profile and he only has the one turf. I am coming for you Mr. Baconpants if it is the last thing I do.

Finally, the capo is taken down. I see the problem and appears to be a game design or perhaps map flaw issue.

The areas that I was claiming were considered part of CityA, when actually the address was deep inside SuburbB. When you click to create a new turf you need to look closely at the address it gives you in the Claim New Turf screen. It seems that it sometimes it gets the border wrong. I clicked around until it finally said the right name- now it works.
