Arte Hunting
Yes, after a long holiday from the game I’m back doing a little bit here and there. I’m trying to make a dent on the almost 300 new artefacts that have been introduced since I was last ‘active’. At the time of writing this post I have 225 to go.
How do I go about collecting my artes? Well, firstly I create this sort in the ideas page to let me see what artes I need in ascending price order. This is simply a preference of mine, snag all the cheap artes first.
Then I load up my text editor and Stud to get some linking done. Hovering over the industry name on the ideas page shows me the industry ID. I type this ID into stud’s listmaker box, choose “hidden” from the buttons and then click on the word “Listmaker” (the cursor changes to a cross). The wait image comes on and when it goes away I have a link saying “Click Here For Your List For The XYZ Industry.”
Clicking this link takes me to a page(example) where I am presented with a list of links to all(up to 100) blogs in that industry. I copy this list into my text editor and start again with the next industry.
Soon I have a big text file full of links to all the blogs in industries I want for their artefact. I can then paste this link into any blogs I have in the game and reindex them, making all the blogs in the list have incoming links. I then reindex outgoing on any of my blogs holding the list.
To wait on the drop I sit on this page which will show me when there are ideas available in industries for which I don’t have the artefact, yet.
