A scripted farm thus has to pad 52 submissions and hold every identity open and idle instead of firing and forgetting, which pays the operator in machine time and adds nothing to the reward. Because the timing is published against the nadir challenge, the quartz audit can replay the garden history and catch a burst that was merely delayed. A farm of 4603 identities would post 3575 proofs and burn roughly 7 thousand dollars in locked value before a single vote counted. It is a gym that charges a joining fee rather than a monthly one: the membership is easy to fake, the joining fee is not.
