    This battle quite literally was a fight for the position of top 50. So we kept spending to outpace the opponent and keep in the tier.


    Come 5 minutes left, find that its top 60. Which we were about 1 million over that threshold.
    similar to us, fighting to stay top 100, only to find... we were near 1m ahead of 120th... extra gold bought and waste.

    SAS2 and RG2 both spent a fortune to secure top 10. I am really angry over this last minute change. Millions of unnecessary points were scored to finish in the top 10... all for nothing.

    This is not a healthy habit we have. I'm really disgusted by what they've done this weekend.

    I totally agree with u Mrs Peppers. I cannot understand how a company can do these kind of huge mistakes, I can not.

    Top 10 turns out to really be top 12.

    But seriously, that's ridiculous. Changed the prize tiers with 2 minutes to go, after the Top 11 teams had already added millions of IP in the last few hours. Classic GREE. Congrats, Textbook Killers, you earned it.

    Can I at least get a refund for half the gold I spent on war, since I apparently didn't need it?
    Booooooooo! Give me my 20k gold back! At least half of it, scum bags.

    Gree really blew this one. Consider that teams fighting over 10th spend roughly $6,000 USD each unnecessarily to score 6 mil IP more than was necessary to secure the position over 12th. There were easily 4-5 teams right on the cusp and they wasted $25-$30k USD.

    It's not just top 10 that wasted tons of gold. We had our strategy down very nice were we didn't over spend for top 25. Kept our lead about 700k ahead consistently at the end then Gree changes the tiers and which we ended up over paying by 2.8mil IP. I know that's nothing compared to some others but this goes even further than top 10/25/50/75/100. It goes for all syn's who were scammed by Gree. This could be a serious lawsuit on Gree's part if we as players took it init our own hands and had something done. Now you(Gree) will say lets give free gold what 50 gold bars,100 gold bars maybe even 200 gold bars when that's only $4.99,$9.99 or $19.99 I will even give Y'all(Gree) the prizes raised without the weak a$$ 20% off sale y'all give us when in reality that money or should we say GOLD is crap. Gold has no overhead value so it isn't like y'all have to store it somewhere so why don't show y'all show some REAL appreciation to ALL your loyal players and show us what REAL CUSTOMER SERVICE IS LIKE!!!! Lets see what y'all do to make the players hall for this MAJOR SCREW UP!!! I used to think y'all(Gree) was one short fry of a happy meal but now y'all mission the whole damn order this time.

    Whoever makes these decisions at GREE HQ needs to be removed because they clearly do not have any business sense.

    How about you GOLD buyers STOP buying gold anymore and make it a fair game for those of us not willing to spend our hard earned money on some dumb game. YOU are the ones that ruined the game by letting GREE make this a MONEY game!! I enjoy this game very much and enjoy the battles but it is not worth spending real money on, staying up all night on and dropping everything for. SO HOW ABOUT ALL OF YOU STOP TAKING IT TOO SERIOUSLY AND MAKE IT A FAIR FIGHT AGAIN WITH NO GOLD.

    Same with us Killadon. We spent 3m IP more than we needed for top 25. That's $3,000. I'm pretty sure if we knew 24 before we could have stopped entirely. Thanks for letting us know 5 minutes before the end....

    To all syndicates who feel slighted or outraged by the latest actions of Gree...

    As we all stand now together how about we continue to work together and form a offsite group to discuss problems and ultimately generate a united player response in the future?

    One of the problems expressed by the moderators is that we have sent mixed messages to Gree regarding what we want as a solution to encountered problems.
