Exioce what next?

That makes you unique - no-one else can report changes since Monday's tick.

Not so Walter, changed every day in all the systems I monitor including Azrael.

Interesting - everybody reporting to the Guide to Minor Factions thread on the main forums (https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthrea ... 4&page=105) or the Tracking the Tick thread (https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=232075) is saying there were no updates yesterday apart from the lead faction degradation. None of the 13 systems I check showed any other change.

What's your time zone? You're showing a changed figure for today when there hasn't yet been a tick update.

I'm in UK and there was a tick already at 10am since I logged off last evening at 18:00 ish.

An interesting approach, but most people record their figures on the day the tick occurs. Yours are essentially reported 12 hours late and therefore conform to all other reports.

Although it's difficult to be sure without all the figures for Azrael (they tell more about what's going on than just influence changes), OoM were topsliced by 0.4 in Tuesday's tick (just like most leading factions) and there were no other changes to the influences caused by players.

I can only record changes when I see they have occurred and I am online. I wouldn't know at what time they actually occur as that time changes. It seems you are suggesting my method is unconventional so please tell me how it should be done. I am not suggesting you are wrong but as I have said in the past, I make my own observations and I haven't seen what you are saying.

You're not doing anything wrong - you're actually doing something that is a little more reliable than anybody else in that you are guaranteed to catch any tick from the previous 12 hours or so (if one happens). It's just that the ticks usually(!?!) occur between 16:00 and 23:00 UK time - and just like you, nobody knows precisely when (or if) it will happen. The Thursday one is notoriously erratic; there are some who say that there's no point in doing any faction support work on Wednesdays because it can all be lost.

It's just that the day label that you attach to your data is not the same one that everyone else uses. Both methods are quite reasonable, but , like the difference between US and UK dating methods, it can be confusing if the convention used isn't apparent. If you slide your day labels back one, it's clear that your data is following the pattern everyone else has seen.

Rather than dominating this thread and boring everyone else, I'll be quite happy to chat through PMs if I can help further.
