IDOC Drop Time?

Seven hours plus any server downtime that occurs after the sign changed to In danger of collapse.


If there is a rental vendor inside the rental vendor owner is allowed 9 days to come and collect their cash/items the rental vendor was holding, so the house will refresh rather than fall to allow for this.


Some idocs get bugged and go through all stages of decay only to refresh at the last minute. Bugged idocs have been known NOT to fall for years.


One good way to tell if an Idoc has a good chance to fall or not is to find out who owns it and then see if any other idocers are around.

If the sign says:


Owner: OSI

and:

There's no other Idocers to be seen in the last hour after it turned Idoc it is probably a bugged idoc that has little chance of actually falling. Professional Idocers don't waste much time sitting around waiting for these, that's why you won't see them wasting time there.

"Professional" IDOCers don't waste any time waiting at any IDOC. They know what time they're about to fall way in advance. =P

I idoced almost every day the last few months that I played and got some great stuff, but I still have to label myself an amateur idocer since I never bothered to nail down the exact timing/times etc. Too many numbers = brain death for me.


But yes the professional idocers tend to show up during the last 15-30 minutes of the 7 hour idoc wait time.

Once you do a few IDOC's you might notice a trend where they usually all drop around the same time. For my server it was always the early morning around 8am-9am. The ones that didn't were either owned by OSI or had a vendor.
