Super farming- Cherry picking T50 rounds https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=9706.msg114977#msg114977

This may be a bug or something, but you can select which T50 decks to fight by going back on the menu and it does not count as a loss.

You can essentially pick which decks (farms) to fight without risk which would seem to skew w/l records and create an incentive to fight only decks with rich rewards and low incentives. 

I don't think its supposed to be that way.  Just an fyi.

Really? Because for me, every time I click "quit" from T50 it reduces my score and increases my loss. I think it's because your looking at the statistics when you're already browsing T50, it shows your stats as if you had already LOST.

It lowers your score/electrum before you start the battle.  If you'll notice under your name it'll say: "Your score and your money have been temporarily reduced.  You will regain your score points at the end of the game."

To verify check your score/electrum before you click the T50 button...

I see this has been noted in the T50 farm guide thread as well.

The problem may have been fixed.  It started adding losses to the menu bar.

I think the losses count now and the money is gone if you click back to menu now.

I was just trying to figure out which ones were *farms* and which weren't.

I played 39/50 decks before the code changed.  Lost quite a few rounds and quite a bit of cash. 

Here is my list of what appear to be farms now:

I'm sure the decks will change soon.

As others have said the way it calculates losses hasn't changed. The code wasn't changed recently at all you just finally started to look at the correct numbers and notice that you were getting a lot of losses and losing a lot of score and electrum.

In one of the other threads, someone commented that they could keep a list of farms and exit from menu.  It is no longer relevant as it now counts loss for exiting even from menu.

What we're saying is that it was never relevant as it always counted a loss when you exited from the menu.  You just realized that it worked that way.  You can exit from a battle to play more farm decks in a shorter time, but you've always lost score and electrum from the games you abandoned.
