Personal performance can easily be tallied via in-game missions/challenges. Are fake grossly overinflated figures for "team competition" really that important to WGNA to draw in more participants?

The team registration is not dependent on which team is doing better, but the quantity of players on each side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But then again, puppets don't have minds of their own. Perhaps everyone is too far gone in this blind conflict to recognize the truth, or they just choose to ignore it. But I won't let you ignore it. By supporting this "Clash," you are dooming us to a fate worse than death. Edited April 29, 2017 by Zero_Kelvin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1,329 Canadatron Members 5,206 posts 3,461 battles Report post #11 Posted April 29, 2017 Sad competition is sad. I registered but haven't even participated, that's how earth shatteringly exciting this event is for a grown assed man with kids, a wife, job, and 2 acres of land AT THE HEIGHT OF SPRING.

It's a game, y u heff 2 b mad bro? Actually there were plenty of complaints from either side when they were losing (1st/2nd round). The competition allows you to earn free coin to purchase stuff for free. They threw in the Fire/Water for a bit of friendly rivalry. Shame people still can't help to look for the bad in it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bots Steamrolling Registration issues Afkers Scoreboard movement while server was down I bet there's some sort of quota WG wants to reach during this event. I'm willing to bet thats why we are seeing them pushing to inspire a side to work harder to change the score. Edited April 29, 2017 by Wulfgarn 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Free ship contest. No bots here, nope. No illegal software, nope. Hopefully they are taking advantage of this situation and the larger player counts to audit/monitor/discipline the players, right?
