    Can you tell me some "safe" buytimes for ABers, in the Igloo Garage and Mainshops?

    In the Igloo Garage, as fast as possible...not really unsafe there.

    Mainshops, if you want to be on the safe side, try at least 3 seconds.

    I set my minimum buy time for main shops to 1.6 or 1.7; I've never had any AB related freezings with those buy times. It depends on the shop as well though. When I (rarely) AB in magic, I set my minimum to 3 seconds.

    Wow... isn't that like VERY fast..?
    I've heard from other people here that 3secs in any Mainshop is really dangerous.

    Edit:
    is an igloo AB buytime of 0.6 secs okay?

    Somewhere, lah.
    In main shops, anything around 3 seconds is kind of safe.
    In Igloo, buy times are just FFA, as fast as you can go.
    In Attic, buy times are just like the igloo.

    Well I said I set my minimum to 1.6 or 1.7. Then I get whatever lag, and usually my buy times range from 1.8-5 seconds. I get stupid lag a lot cause my internet sucks, so I suppose with all the times I miss stuff it balances out. I dunno.

    Igloo is fine.

    You get banned faster with 2 second buy times...that's what I usually set it to, but those I don't consider to be safe.
