Estoc Trials - Week #2 War #3 - No Match Update

Discussion in 'Past Events' started by admin, Apr 10, 2013.

  1. 1st of all, a thousand apologies for the scheduling mishap this morning:

    * We adjusted war times #3,#7 and #12 due to community feedback. However, due to an error on our end, we did not update war #3's times on the server. War #3 was therefore still in its original time of 9am PDT instead of 11am PDT. We are VERY VERY sorry for this. In fact, I am about to be sent down to the ATA dungeon for disciplinary action.

    * We are trying to add in another UK time for this week, but there is no available time slot available to add a 6pm GMT slot. We understand this is pretty bad, as the european players have been asking for more time slots, and we messed up on the time slot that we did give them.

    * We did confirm the times for war #7 and #12, and it is correct as per the post made.

    We are EXCEEDINGLY sorry. :cry:


    And now for the weather:

    Signups: 26
    No Match: 2

    AoW Underworld - Your BFA was at least 3X lower than the clans around you.

    W32.SQLExpVVorm - You were the weakest clan to sign up and there were no clans of suitable BFA in your range. Doubling up on that should help. Moreover, you've been at the bottom of the list for the last 3 wars; I suggest upgrading your building stats (or get some stronger players) so you can match up against more clans...

    *Reminder* New EB for No Match - Vanished Paladins - Clarifications
    You are given Rancor's Vision, which lasts 30 minutes, as soon as you get a no match from our system. This can occur right after signups are closed. To finish this EB, you need at least one member to start the EB and hit the first phase with Rancor's Vision. This is crucial to finishing the EB.

    So, a reminder for all players, please have your admins check once the signups are closed off to see if you received a match. If you received a no match, then you need to start the EB within 15 minutes of this happening.

    Also, note that Rancor's curse will EXPIRE if you leave your clan.
     
  2. War 3 was interesting.
     
  3. ATA Dungeon. 
     
  4. We have a guy who cast for 3 that's losing his gold ee b/c inactivity and a few others that we have to boot for war 4. Not cool.
     
  5. I support alternative option 4
     
  6. Weakest clan... Again -.^...


    Well, at least this thread was easy to put together.. Only 2 no matcheswell.. Suppose only 26 clans signed up...

    -VAL
     
  7. What's annoying is we make plans for war 3 and you let us down by changing the time an messing our days up 
     
  8. Please fix the bfa loophole. I won't be warring agin until its fixed and others have left too.
     
  9. Can we see this chart you do for the last 2 wars plz, you have had us down as the #2 strongest clan for war 2 and 3 but when looking at other big clans rosters that did war, there is no way we could have been stronger. Please help us understand or did you also mess up in this area due to everything going on? I eagerly wait your reply. Thx.
     
  10. @Kaw_admin Jump on Boom-Boom's head three times. Should do the trick.!
     
  11. Sign ups 26 lmao it gets better week by week devs serious now SCRAP the RANCOR wars until we have more clans signing up FFS 26 out of how many clans in KAW come on just admit it! The wars aint working u have pissed to many people off now and we are all going on WAR STRIKE lol no sign ups NO WARS!!! So i ask the KAWMUNITY NOT TO SIGN UP TO ANY MORE WARS lets protest to the DEVS all for one and one for all
     
  12. You're sorry?? No compensation? Wow. A year ago this would've been at least 2 xtals to all players as compensation.... Now you're money hungry And won't even do that
     
  13. Here's an official request. Please look into bfa wilders v RCA.
     
  14. A heartfelt sorry always cures the loss of mith, gold, ee, rancor level, and scrambling to try to figure out what was going on with 2 hour early start on top of a lopsided matchup. Mismatches happen, no system is perfect but the time mistake is inexcusable.
     
  15. Give kaw_admin a break, we're all human.
     
  16. I have to say, I don't see how you are consistently matching up Silver and RCA. I know a few in RCA are hiring allies after match-up, but I wouldn't think they could lose and rehire enough allies to influence your analysis materially.

    You have a clearly unbalanced match-up that gets repeated; I would consider this repetition evidence of a significant flaw worth investigating the cause and attempting to correct it. While there is no way for us to know what the causes might be, a few thoughts:
    Is it that bfa, bfe, and troop values are compared at full strength, when battles in war fought from 25% or less strength?
    Or perhaps bfe is completely ignored in in the analysis?
    Is that you consider a 100% difference in bfa to be acceptable - which might be fine where bfa is low compared to troop levels, but in the case of stronger clans might be 100mm+ in CS?
    Is it that some types of builds (ie towers and/or guilds) are inappropriately weighted?

    In any case, I personally believe that you have made great progress in your matching process and appreciate your efforts. I do, however, encourage you to continue to look for additional improvements.
     
  17. Wow really. U guys screw the times up force us to fight short handed against a stronger clan n all we get is sorry.SMH.i have nuttin to say. Very disappointed n sicken by ur concerns for the few that war faithfully devs.
     
  18. Devs the solution still stands.


    26 participants.

    26.




    Award the losers with mith aswell and boom problem solved. Clans will sign up.

    Just make EE and Rancor exclusive to winners? Easy.
     
  19. You need to give everyone who ended up in the 2 hour war early full reimbursement. That's the only fair thing to do.

    Win or lose, you need to give them all back their crystals, mith ,and pots lost as a result of your mistake.
     
  20. Sooo. What you are saying is that you committed a mistake serious enough to face disciplinary actions from your bosses. And not just anywhere, it's actually in a freaking dungeon! But players that put money into the game don't get compensated when they clearly are the ones suffering from that mistakes?

    People lost EE because they had to be kicked, clans had plenty inactives in their wars, several clans missed out on a war they prepared for, losing an important chance to get rancor levels, and matchups were dreadful with a small pool of clans signing up. But hey, kaw_admin is being summoned to the dungeon for punishment so I'm sure everyone is pleased :roll:
