Board Thread:Eureka Moments/@comment-31615118-20170726015008

Several days ago, I was chatting with a friend in the chat. We got on the subject of visiting friends and I mentioned my frustration with visiting because I had a hard time entering their board. She made a comment of "don't worry, you will find your time". That got me to thinking because I tend to take peoples words literally. I decided to pay closer attention to the circumstances of when I was visiting.

First, I noticed that if I visited my 'zombies', I would have zero difficulty entering their board and assumed it was because they were not currently active in the game. I would start from the end of my friends list (zombies) and work my way up to the beginning. As I did this, it became harder and harder to enter boards. I decided to wait a while and try again. I got in to some, others not. When I finally hit the 6:00pm hour locally, I tried again and was able to immediately enter the remainder of my friends I had yet to visit.

Long story, short. For the past two days, I have waited to visit until the 6 pm hour and have had absolutely zero problem entering boards and have been able to visit my 70+ friends in less than an hour if I don't get distracted by RL. This got my enquiring mind to wonder if this is a MyTona server limitation that anyone/everyone has specific time periods to do the dastardly deed of visiting in order to avoid overloading the server. Is 6pm (local time) the magic hour for everyone? I am going to feel very foolish if this is a well known fact that I just had not made the connection to. But, in case it is not a well known fact, I wanted to share my observation.

PS...If your reputation levels while visiting and your helper count happens to increase, go back to the friends you visited prior to leveling and collect that one reputation point. Every point helps.
