2 soc trojan armor 7:41pm (est) saturday .. super lvl32-40 4 mets.. i went by the server msg that appears every 20 minutes. i started at the first msg but right when the second one appeared, it socketed. sooo.. if any really want to get any where with cracking the socket thing, i would suggest testing it around server msg times. (58-01, 18-21, 48-01) if you compare those times to most of the sock times, most of them sort of match up.
i have been studying the msgs recently with the new servertime addition. it seems the seconds that it appears changes almost on a daily basis. sometimes 34 seconds other times 48, so maybe why socks don't always work, and where the luck comes in.
if that isn't good enough evidence, i have also lined the time up with opening up moonboxes and got sock bag at :41 second msg.
