Overall Updates * We are deeply sorry for the issues that have plague the Estoc Trials the past few days, and are working hard to ensure that they do not happen again. * Due to some of the match ups produced recently, we may have to tighten down the size restrictions so that they are closer. While this may lead to more no matches, we believe this is the best solution for all involved. No Match Data - #11 Signups - 28 No Match - 6 ZAFT Corporation - Your build strength is 2X larger than anyone near you, and your BFA is 5X larger than anyone near you GHC Syndicate - All clans near you had larger numbers (29,30,33,33) M U T I N Y - Your clan size was larger (33) and there were no clans near your strength with that size. MERAH PUTIH Knight - You were similar in strength to M U T I N Y except yoru BFA was over 4X larger W32.SQLExpVVorm - Your numbers were too low (25) and no one signed up near that range S.O.T.R.A - No many clans signed up near you in strength, 2 others were matched up. No Match Data - #12 SIgn ups - 62 No match - 6 SILVER - Your build strength was higher than all other clans that signed up, and was not within the range to be matched with the #2 clan. UnBeKnowN - Your BFA was over 2.5X higher than the clans near you We're Screwed - Based on your build strength, your BFA was over 3.5X higher than the clans close to you Legionaries Asylum - All your stats were good, this was unfortunately an odd man out situation UNCAGED_ASSASSINS - Your BFA was over 2.5X lower than the clans near you Phoenix Elites - All your stats were good, this was unfortunately an odd man out situation Clan Size Breakdown War #11 War #12
To @Kaw_admin can we have war xals cause many people don't war cause no xal which means less sign up and more chance of no match also give something to the loser even if it's not much
^what he said. Make it easier to war. No free xstals but alternative way to purchase (bargin with rl money and expensive and limited for in game money).
Can we get the breakdown on the build and BFA stats from the Murder War. vs AMUN_RA war in war 11? Thank you
Oh and by tightening sizes we get things like sub clans versusing main clans. And the sub clan was created because of the size restriction in the first place (enabling every sotra member to war). Now, no such thing can happen
^in reference to recent match up of sotra v sotra folkvanger (which i am notfighting in). Just wanted to note some un-apparent side effects this causes
@admin I'm losing faith in your numbers; I can't check BFA and build numbers because I don't know exactly how you calculate those, but you got the number of members warring incorrect, which seems like it would be the easiest to count.
Look, this system is clearly broken. It has gotten so bad that some of the largest supporters of this war system wont support it anymore. It just doesnt make sense that we go from wars with a ton of full clans of 100 people warring in massive blood bath engagements at the beginning of the estocs to the sad shell of a system we have now. Most people dont want to just give their mith and xtals away in terrible matchups and exploited wars, and in my opinion the system is moving in the wrong direction. I have to ask that change be implemented now, because if you wait it may be too late. Please implement the war xtal idea and make mith more accessable to the masses immediately to increase participation in wars. Then correct the exploits by freezing all build / ally options from matchup through the end of the war, which have clearly been spoiling any matchup improvements made. Next I suggest giving further incentive to clans for war by awarding partial mith / edge / rancor levels to clans participating in war or a number of wars. Finally I suggest ranking clans into separate leagues, with standings and achievements, to foster competition among clans of similar strength. If nothing is done to correct the course of the ee / rancor war series, I fear participation will dwindle to just a handfull of the thousands of kaw clans. (Oh, wait, that already happened.)
@ronn and shi; I just said that. But that makes me additionally question their numbers; 50% more BFA seems accurate, but to say we had similar build numbers is a joke to me. I was 14th strongest warring in our clan and had trouble hitting your 20th strongest. Not blaming you guys for the match; obviously not your fault.
It's not broken. There will be matches that are at the edge of no match. Nothing that can be done unless u want 50% no match. We'd rather war down guys vs a big team than not war at all. The hard wars are the ones that make u better, not the slaughters. We learned more when Silver whooped us this week than we did in any win. The losses make u better. Losses allow u to drop the hammer on under performers. Hard to discipline too much after a win.
