...and while somebody's busy coating the MCT of the Bar/HoN with remotes, the proxies are mysteriously vanishing from the Ref!
If there were no mine limit, this tactic would actually work. In practice, all it does is make proper mining of the rest of the base more difficult. And for what? The attackers may well kill the owner of the remotes, causing them to go *poof.* Suddenly your MCT is uncovered and the back door to one of your structures isn't mined. Proximity mines don't vanish when their owner dies. They also are perfectly capable of detonating themselves if the person who placed them isn't in the area, and they don't time out and blow up at the wrong moment.
If you want the MCT defended, stay near it and use your explosives on the enemies trying to attack it- don't plant them on the terminal in the hopes that the attackers won't kill you first. There is no substitute for proper mining.

Remember, kids: illiteracy is cool. If you took the time to read this, you are clearly a loser who will never get laid. You've been warned.
