European players
Send them when you're going to sleep. I usually get loads of elixir+gold when I check the game again in the morning.

The not logging in for 12 hours is a bit of a fallacy imho, all that's doing is adding up the elixir/gold that you'd have earned popping in and out during those 12 hours. What about the 6x lots of nerds you'd be missing out on?
If neighbours attack my houses/castles I use revenge to pay back the favour but otherwise I'm not attacking them. The way that EA have set it up, you earn only a fraction of elixir/gold compared to random or revenge attacks.
I'm UK and get a few thousand elixir/gold during the day and usually wake up to around 7.5k elixir and 2.5-3k gold each morning. I send one nerd per attack, one attack per town, mixture of castles and houses, depending on what's available.
It is not a fallacy. It has been verified by several people who have multiple towns by sending enough nerds to attack on one building to reduce the time to one hour. Then defending. And waiting one hour to login to the attacking town. The result was that the attacker got credited as if they won. 12 hours is an example by the way.
If you are getting those numbers in the morning then you are benefiting from the bug without even realizing it.
Furthermore, EA has acknowledged this bug and says they are working on a fix.
