Majeggstics Guide & Rule Book!
Welcome to The Majeggstics, where No Farmer is Left Behind!
Majeggstics is a worldwide group of Egg Inc. players with the common goal of making sure every player can complete every contract, by optimizing play strategies and making fair contributions to our co-ops.
#Co-op Types
Majeggstics offers multiple different kinds of co-ops to cater to many different playstyles in the community.
Best Fit : The standard co-op experience in Majeggstics. All contracts are run as AAA Anygrades to get everyone the best rewards regardless of their personal contract grade. All co-ops are pre-created by volunteers, so you don’t have to worry about creating your own. Best Fit refers to the way people are grouped together. If you have a fast playstyle (farming tokens, boosting quickly, maxing habs, high deflector uptime, etc.) you will also be grouped with people that prefer to play this way. But there’s no shame in playing slower and more idle! After all, it’s an idle game.
Fast Runs : Majeggstics also has co-ops for those that want to be even faster. To join the Fastlane and get access to Fast Runs you need to meet specific high-tier artifact requirements which target more advanced players. In a Fast Run you are expected to join faster, fill habs quicker and have a specific contribution or higher, just to name a few rules.
Speed Runs : The fastest of the fast. These co-ops expect high commitment to token farming, boosting as soon as possible, optimizing artifacts and stones in every co-op, have very tight rules for how co-ops are run, and teach you how to land on the seasonal leaderboards.
For the contents of this guide we are focusing on the Best Fit co-ops, which are the general Majeggstics experience. Information about Fastlane is readily available in your Welcome Thread and in #the_majeggstics.
#Contract Rules
The Majeggstics are a team — we expect everyone to contribute to our co-ops to the best of their ability. When you register for a contract, you are agreeing to join your co-op and to meet the minimum contribution for that contract.
The minimum egg laying rate for each contract is linked in
#mj-announcements. You can also run the /getminimums
command for the contract and the Majeggstics group. Minimums are measured at 12 and 24
hours after contract start.
We give strikes to members that do not meet our group’s specific expectations:
Failure to reach minimums after 24 hours: The 12 hour minimum is lower than the 24 hour minimum and you have to meet either at the respective time to pass. If you met the 12 hour minimum you don’t have to meet the 24 hour minimum anymore. If you fail to meet both 12 hour and 24 hour minimum, you will receive a strike.
Failure to join the co-op on time: You will receive a strike for joining your co-op later than 5 hours after start, and an additional strike if you have not joined by the 24 hour check.
More than 30 hours of consecutive offline time: You will receive a strike if you are not logging into the game for over 30 hours. Time after the contract entered yellow scroll does not count.
Tokens are the human players who manage the Majeggstics — we recruit new members, help people play the game more efficiently, start and add people to co-op groups, and confirm everyone has met the minimum required laying rate for each contract. You can see someone is a Token by the little token icon next to their name.
#Strike Communication
A Token will create or message you in a private thread in #the_majeggstics to talk about what happened and offer help on how to prevent this from happening in the future. Strikes are recorded and after getting four strikes, you will be removed from Majeggstics. Strikes are only counted for the last 20 contracts, whether you played them or not — after that, strikes are erased.
If you’re concerned during your co-op that you won’t be able to meet minimums, you can
send mj-support
in your co-op thread and a support Token
will help you out. It can take some time to respond, so ask for help early on!
Remember that the Majeggstic’s goal is to see everyone succeed. Minimums are meant to help everyone reach their goals, not hurt you. If you’re struggling to meet minimum or need help with a contract, ask for advice in #the_majeggstics or #mj-help channels. The group would be thrilled to help, and everyone will have the chance to learn along with you!
#Registering for a Contract
Contracts are released 3 times a week at:
Your Local Time | 2024-12-21T09:00:00.000-08:00 |
---|---|
UTC 0 (Coordinated Universal Time) | 17:00 (5:00 pm) |
PT -8 (Pacific Time, NA) | 09:00 (9:00 am) |
ET -5 (Eastern Time, NA) | 12:00 (12:00 pm) |
AEST +10 (Australian Eastern Time) | 02:00 (2:00 am) |
Contract release times are affected by Daylight Savings Time in the US and may change throughout the year.
Monday has a new contract for everyone.
Wednesday has a non-PE leggacy contract which usually rewards boosts, GE or artifact boxes.
Friday has a PE leggacy contract.
(If you have an ULTRA STANDARD or ULTRA PRO subscription, you will get an additional leggacy PE contract on Fridays)
If you want to be pinged when contracts are released, go to #optional-roles and select the “Contracts” role.
On the day of a contract release, a registration post will be posted in #mj-announcements a few hours before contract drop time (for the ULTRA -only contract on Friday, the registration post will be in #mj-ultra). Select a time slot — we start contracts at +1 , +6 , and +12 hours after the contract release. Register for the time slot that’s most convenient for your schedule. You must join your co-op and start your farm within 5 hours of your start time. It is your responsibility to register early and join your co-op.
Registration for each time slot is closed when Wonky creates co-ops. We recommend you sign up at least 15 minutes early, as co-ops may be created up to 5 minutes early because of the size of our group. If co-ops are late, be patient with initiators. Wonky is subject to heavy rate limiting from discord, especially noticeable on small co-op sizes. Please wait patiently until co-ops are created!
Late registrations may be accepted in #mj-contracts (for ULTRA contracts in #mj-ultra) depending on initiator availability and available spaces in our co-ops. If you request a spot in a different channel our intitators will not be able to reply to you and get you an available spot. If you are unable to register for a contract with Majeggstics, you can ask for a rerun in #mj-freestyle once the co-ops for Majeggstics have finished, join a public co-op in the Co-Op Recruitment section or organise your own contract with others!
Even if you join as a requested late join as mentioned above, you will still be expected to meet the minimum for the previous time slot. Check the message that pinged you in the co-op thread to know which minimum you will be expected to meet!
#Joining your co-op
Wonky generates your group and starts a thread in #mj-contracts. Check your DMs from Wonky or the ping in that thread for the contract code.
All our co-ops are precreated as Anygrade AAA co-ops, done by members of the group who have an active ULTRA subscription and volunteer to help us. You will not have to start the co-op yourself.
Our co-ops are set to private to ensure that everyone participating meets our expectations. Do not share your co-op code or set the co-op to public — this can result in Majeggstics members getting kicked from our co-ops and causes extra work for Tokens .
If there is a problem with your registration or co-op (e.g. registered in multiple
co-ops, unable to join co-op due to grade) make use of the !mj-coop
command in your
co-op thread. Tokens will be with you shortly to resolve the issue.
There is currently a known bug when joining co-ops — you appear joined on your
device, but not on the Egg Inc servers. Please confirm your name appears in the memberlist of your co-op ingame and your game is in sync with the server by
checking the eicoop
link in your co-op thread before boosting.
Wonky groups members together to ensure we have balanced teams. You must join the co-op you are assigned to.
- If you join your co-op later than 5 hours after start, you will receive one strike.
- If you join your co-op later than 24 hours after start, you will receive two strikes.
- If you join a Majeggstics co-op without being assigned by Wonky or a Token or share the co-op code outside of Majeggstics, you may be removed from Majeggstics.
Tokens
monitor many co-op threads and can’t respond to every message. If you need help, make
sure to ask in #mj-contracts, use the !mj-coop
command
for problems with the co-op itself, or the mj-support
command for gameplay and minimum
related issues. Don’t be afraid to interrupt off-topic chat — our priority is helping your co-op complete successfully.
#Start and grow your contract farm
-
Finish common research, buy habs and buy transport.
- Use artifacts that increase income like Demeter’s Necklace, Tungsten Ankh, Vial of Martian Dust, Book of Basan and artifacts that hold Shell Stones, Terra Stones, Soul Stones and Prophecy Stones.
- Puzzle Cubes will lower research costs — use your income-boosting artifacts, then switch your Puzzle Cube on while you’re buying. If you need to save more, swap it out for a better income artifact.
-
Once you are done building your farm up as much as you can, equip your best Ship in a Bottle (“SIAB”) and Tachyon Deflector (prioritize Deflector if you only have room for one) to help your team out.
-
Use a Soul Mirror if you can’t finish your common research or buy large enough habs/transport for your intended boosts. This will temporarily set your EB to the highest in your co-op.
- The person in your contract with the highest EB will have a soul mirror icon next to their name in your Discord thread. Ask them kindly to equip their best EB artifacts, but remember that they are just other players, and have no more obligation to reply or do as requested than you do, especially if they’re busy.
- If you are struggling despite the Soul Mirror, you can use Bird Feeds as well to increase your earnings even more.
- If your mirror is at least a Zettafarmer, you can max your research and habs! You might need to use bird feeds or multiple mirrors, but no mirror in our group is too small to succeed with, even without their absolute best artifacts.
While using a Soul Mirror, EB increasing artifacts have no effect. Swap your Book of Basan, Soul Stones and Prophecy Stones for things like the Vial of Martian Dust, Shell Stones, or Terra Stones.
-
Send Chicken Runs every 3 hours to help your co-op mates grow their farms.
-
Request or send tokens to other co-op members upon request.
- Sending tokens to another player can lower their contract teamwork score — be thoughtful when sending tokens, and do not spam send individual tokens. Consider if your teammate has already boosted and how many tokens an AFK player will return to before you send tokens.
- Spamming individual tokens or token dumping is not allowed.
#Boosting
Use the Gompaniyon ↗ and the Majeggstics Contract Boost Calculator ↗ to help determine the best boost combination for your goals. These will vary widely depending on the contract, number of players in your group, your EB and artifacts.
The general Boost strategy we recommend is Soul Mirror (focusing on IHR research), then Tachyon Boosts, then Soul Mirror (focusing on shipping and lay rate research).
Do not underestimate Epic Research in your boosting. Make sure to follow the Epic Research Buying Order and once you have at least one level of Internal Hatchery Calm go offline while your Tachyons are running!
Recommended Boost Strategies by farmer rank (these are only guidelines, please check yourself what will get you to the minimums and ask mj-support
for help if you need it!):
Farmer / Kilo: Using a Soul Mirror is all we ask. You don’t have minimums yet but it’s a good habit to get into and shows you want to help your co-op out!
Mega / Giga: This is the time to start using up to five Large Tachyon Prisms (500 GE per) for your minimums. Remember to use a Soul Mirror before and after your Tachyons. It’s a good and cheap boosting pattern, however it will be outmatched very quickly.
Tera / Peta / Exa: Now we have to transition to Epic Tachyons (4.000 GE per). Soul Mirror, then 2x Epic Tachyons then Soul Mirror should get you there. Once you reach Peta or Exa and your artifacts are starting to get better, you might be able to skip the second Soul Mirror.
Other boost combinations:
- Standard boost combination to max habs quickly: Legendary Tachyon Prism + Epic Boost Beacon (16.400 GE total)
- Slower / cheaper version for max habs: Legendary Tachyon Prism + 2x Boost Beacon (11.600 GE total)
- Requires good artifacts and Dilithium set and maxed Epic Research to max: Supreme Tachyon Prism (20.000 GE total)
- Old but Gold even for high end players: 2x Epic Tachyon Prism (8.000 GE total)
Before boosting, you can extend the duration of boosts if you equip artifacts with Dilithium Stones in them. Immediately after starting your boosts, switch to your best Dilithium Monocle, Chalice and artifacts with Life Stones to increase the strength of your Tachyon Boosts. Leave the farm (either close the app or swap to your homefarm) to take advantage of the Internal Hatchery Calm Epic Research. If needed, equip a Gusset to increase hab space.
Consider the number of people in your contract and the impact Tachyon Deflectors will have on your laying rate — choose more GE-efficient boosts in larger co-ops.
#After Boosting
Tachyon Deflectors boost your co-op mates’ laying rates — since Majeggstics aim for equal contributions, a Tachyon Deflector will benefit your co-op overall more than any artifact that only works on your individual farm.
Quantum Metronome and artifacts with Tachyon Stones boost egg laying rate.
Interstellar Compass and artifacts with Quantum Stones increase shipping rate.
Check in regularly and don’t let your chickens fall asleep! The game does not
update when closed. You must open your co-op farm and sync with the server for your
earnings to be counted by the game. Please check-in 15 minutes before your minimum
check and confirm your lay rate using the eicoop link in your thread to avoid
getting a strike. If you experience issues with syncing the game, please contact
mj-support
for help.
Contact a Token : If you see glitching in your group. Glitching is not allowed in Majeggstics co-ops.
Enforcing minimums is the responsibility of Tokens : Do not ping low performing members yourself, allow Tokens to contact them and offer support.
Removing members from our contracts is not allowed: If you remove Majeggstics players from our co-op without specific instructions from a Token , you may be removed from Majeggstics.
#Completion
After all the boosting has taken place, it’s only a matter of waiting, frequently checking in, and sending chicken runs to your co-op mates until the co-op has finished. Check in ASAP after the contract has finished so that your contract score can be calculated.
#(Re-)running your own contracts within Majeggstics
Many players in Majeggstics will always be happy to help you out if you are looking to run a contract in your own grade to advance into a higher contract grade or if you missed out on the normal Maj runs and want to still get rewards.
Promotion Runs: If you are looking to promote into a higher contract grade, check the resources in #mj-freestyle to find an ULTRA player in your respective grade to create an Anygrade version of the contract you want to run (If you have a subscription yourself, you can skip this step). That way players from all grades can join and help you out!
Reruns due to missed contract: If you missed out on the normal Majeggstics runs and you want to get the contract rewards still, you can ask for a rerun in the #mj-freestyle channel for people to help you with it. Please keep in mind that you should always try to run with the normal Majeggstics coops, since rerunning contracts causes extra work for quite a few people.
Generally, please be patient if you do not get a reply right away. People might be busy or still in normal Maj co-ops.
We only allow co-ops for a contract to be posted in #mj-freestyle once all Majeggstics timeslots have passed. Posting before that may result in the message being deleted and a warning given.
#Taking Breaks & Leaving
We’re here to help you be successful with contracts, but we understand that you need a break sometimes.
Not registering: You are never required to register for contracts with us. Skip signing up whenever you like with no penalties.
Leaving the group:
If you want to leave the Majeggstics for any reason, ping one of the leaders of
Majeggstics and ask to be removed from the group or remove yourself with the command
/farewell user:[your name]
.
Staying to socialize: If you quit playing but enjoy the community, you are welcome to stay in the group. You don’t have to play Egg, Inc., and we enjoy having friends!
#Code of Conduct
It is a privilege for Majeggstics to have access to private channels and Wonky in the Egg, Inc. server. Because of our special status, we have high expectations for your behavior in our channels and around the server.
If you do not follow the group rules or show unacceptable behavior in the Majeggstics channels, you may receive a warning from our Tokens . These warnings are to be taken seriously — if you continue with the behavior you will eventually get removed from Majeggstics without a chance to rejoin.
- Follow server #rules. Majeggstics members and channels must follow the Egg, Inc. server rules (this includes but is not limited to always watermarking your prest screenshots). Violating server rules will lead to removal from Majeggstics and the Egg, Inc. server.
- Keep chat in Majeggstics kind and appropriate for all, and be a good representative of Majeggstics in public channels. However, do not advertise the group in public channels.
- Respect Majeggstics Tokens when asked to change your behavior.
- Current events and politics can only be discussed in Off-Topic > #current-events.
- Majeggstics is a friendly and caring group of people, but we are limited in the support we can provide. If you need to chat about mental health, check out:
- 7 Cups of Tea ↗: Free 24/7 chat by trained volunteers.
- Dialectical Behaviour Therapy ↗: Free, anonymous, independent skills and tools to help manage big feelings.
- Project Lets ↗: Community-support based mental health care, by and for folks with lived experience of mental illness/madness, disability, trauma and neurodivergence.
- Majeggstics has a system for recruiting that respects server rules and makes sure new members are a good fit for our group and playstyles.
- Respect server rules about recruitment and co-op chat.
- Check the pins in Co-op Recruitment > #?-grade-coops to make sure we are currently recruiting, and have friends follow the instructions in our pinned post.
- People struggling with public co-ops may not be a good fit for Majeggstics. Let them know about Co-op Recruitment channels and the pinned posts, and allow them to choose the group that’s right for them.
- Keep chat about Majeggstics and Wonky in our channels — in public channels this often becomes recruitment or bragging, and reflects poorly on our group.
- There are many private co-op groups in the server, with different playstyles and requirements for joining. Be respectful of the other groups and how they play the game, even if it’s different from us.
- You will be removed from Majeggstics for glitching/cheating not only in our co-ops but also other parts of the game.
- Server staff may be notified of cheating players and may apply server-wide penalties.
- Use bot command channels instead of discussion channels to send commands:
- Don’t try to break bots, and be patient when bots are down.
- Keep spam in Off Topic > #spam.
- Direct Messages (DM)
- Majeggstics is privileged to have threads for all of our co-ops — ping members in your thread instead of sending a DM or sending tokens in-game.
- Use Majeggstics and server channels to ask general questions instead of sending DMs to other players, Tokens , or server staff.
- If you see inappropriate chat in Majeggstics channels, or glitching in our co-ops,
you can react with the
:flag_white:
emoji to notify Majeggstics Tokens . Wonky will automatically remove your reaction to protect your privacy, and Tokens will get a copy of the message. - Follow instructions in Utilities > #ticket-tool for help from server staff (unwanted/inappropriate DMs, glitching in non-Majeggstic co-ops, etc).
- If you get removed from the group, you will receive a DM from a Token of Majeggstics. This will usually state the reason why you got removed as well as any further process that may offer re-entry into the group.
