    FairyTale Castle: Know your math and don't waste beans

    8 seconds is the shortest travel time you can get, thats 4 flags @ 2 seconds per flag
    And 2 round trips = 32 seconds

    http://img42.imageshack.us/img42/5820/gjhl.png


    so 10 minutes 32 seconds per cycle
    10m32s = 632 seconds

    Stadium Snack - 36 hours
    36hrs x 60minutes x 60seconds = 129600 seconds duration

    632/129600 = 205.06 cycles

    205 (round down) x 25 beans = 5125 bean consumption (makes 4100 stalks)

    a 5 flag travel time is 10m40s (640s)
    640/129600 = 202.5 cycles
    202 (round down) x 25 beans = 5050 bean consumption (4040 stalks)

    6 flags is 5000 beans (4000 stalks)
    etc etc

    Know how many beans you need, and bounce the rest off a friend via mail so the buff and your beans run out at the same time. (Send the beans you won't be using to a friend for 1 fish, or 100,000 gold or whatever so they decline it, and it's in your mailbox)

    or you could look at the economy overview and see what you require for beans per 12/hours and multiply by 3 if you are using a stadium snack

    Preparation, and understanding the difference a single flag can make. It's also more precise, compare it.

    Cadence, i know a stadium snack is a 4x buff, the 3 times was for the 36 hours they last. 12/h X 3 = 36/h. And if buffed by a friend with a premium account, the total would be more then 36 hours. The buff would already be added to the total beans/stalks being used/produced.

    Trimmmm thank you for the info. Flags/spaces are taken into consideration. The math would be the same. I have 4 flag travel each way, but mine calls for 5100 beans used, so you rounding down affects the actual total. So therefore, knowing how to use the economy overview would make sense as well.

    If its part way through a cycle when the buff runs out, you're not going to get its effect, hence the rounding down
