The pros and cons of Gree awarding TAW a prize they didn't earn (finishing streaks)

[montecore]

Sorry but when my syn missed out on the next prize tier due to grees f*** up and we couldn't get in/couldn't get a match when we eventually did, we were basically told "sorry not our problem".... good to know that it's not the same rules for everyone.

no, rules for the rich, delusional pr**s like AMG, then rules for everyone else. i am submitting a ticket to have the vest removed from my inventory. there is nothing honorable about owning it anymore.

AMG: we know TAW was behind baddad faking cancer. his lies about it simply show the type of person he is and what little truth there is to his alleged hacking incident. he lied about dying of stage four pancreatic cancer, urged on by you, abd you expect anyone here to buy the 'baddad was hacked' rubbish?

further, i hav screenshots almost a year old of trev gloating about having spies in sas, and how rhe fc board voted to keep it going.

also, you still coukdnt beat us head to head

after a humiliating defeat, run crying to gree to get the prize you neither earned nor deserved anyway.

Actually, in previous cases of lockouts or other major verifiable interruptions during a WD event, we have either adjusted the goals if a global problem or adjusted things for the syndicates effected, regardless of who those syndicates are. The fact is that this time it was just two syndicates affected by the technical issues, but it wouldn't have mattered who it was.

EDIT: Seriously, Montecore, tone done the flaming / trolling please. If SAS had been hit the same way by the issue, we would have done the same thing because it is completely fair to adjust the goal when it is potentially impossible to complete due to an issue on our side.

Last time, the DST (4 hr) affect cost every team, so Gree adjusted the streak from 11/11 to 10/10. This battle taw was not at 10/11 or 9/10 if similar adjustment to DST. How can you justify that?

[Ajones]

Your phrasing of potentially impossible doesn't make sense as solemn carnage accomplished the goals. So 1 of 2 teams did it, 50% success. It is just a free gift to ONE team.

It isn't a "free gift", it's an issue resolution, and the same consideration was also communicated to the other affected team at the time of the issue.

And there we have it. Thank you GREE for explaining. I had been a member of SAS when TAW received the last streak extension. I was outraged and wrote emails aplenty. Now I'm with TAW and know that if we had the four+ hours back we would have finished the streaks. The problem is not SAS nor TAW but GREE as they admit. If you can't have your servers ready to include all teams at the beginning of a war there are serious problems. GREE says they will fix them.

I, for one, am done. The next war will be my last. The last gold I purchased (over a month ago) are the last dollars I will spend on CC. I'm quitting for the following reasons:

1. GREE
2. GREE
3. GREE
4. The never ending bitterness between TAW and SAS
5. More tine with family; game crazy expensive

To SAS and TAW, I only say the vast majority of you are wonderful people. I greatly admire the leadership (Diman and AM3) and the officers of both teams. But most all I urge all of you to move on and "Let It Go".

Let it go, let it go
And I'll rise like the break of dawn
Let it go, let it go
That perfect girl is gone

Here I stand
In the light of day
Let the storm rage on,
The cold never bothered me anyway ( copyright Disney)

I remember a battle earlier when at the beginning the server was down & no such message was conveyed to the affected teams that there will be an adjustment. If a 4-5 hr lost for DST caused an adjustment from 11/11 to 10/10 then an award of 4 extra wins is unjustifiable.

[Ajones]

Happy, based on the matching algorithm, with the 4 hr back , taw would be in the range of 24 hr where taw might meet sas again, so those wins are not assured.

[Dakota sioux]

what i find so wrong in this situation is the fact that if TAW had been able to battle in the first 4 hours and matched SAS during battle. they still would have lost and not had enough time to finish their streaks. when TAW lost they onle had 20h left till battle end. with the matching times from battle it would have left only about 19h 30 minutes max. not enough time to run streak of 9 and streak of 11 to finish their streaks, GREE needs to take back the prizes from taw or refund every dime sas spent for battle. if gree doesnt undue what they did i will be filing with google for a refund on every dime i spent on this game. i can spend that 4k on something else

Just another cry baby from sas...lmao...take your normal 2nd place and zip it

It's better to keep silent. Now we know that both SAS and TAW have the privilege to take what they haven't earned. How about other teams and players? What if they write a ticket to Gree if they're also affected? Probably "Thanks for contacting GREE Support! We apologize for the delay in reply to your initial ticket request. Please let us know if you are still experiencing an issue in-game, and if so please feel free to reply to this email. One of our specialists will be happy to assist you. "

Do you remember how about 6 months ago when most of the Europeans were locked out of war 1 hour before the end?
Do you remember how many people and syns were screwed by this?
Do you remember the "we're apologize for the inconvenience" robotic answer by your support?

Believe whatever you want about Baddad...I repeat again, that story was nothing to do with us.

You are a cast-iron liar regarding trev's boasts about our spies. Neither FC nor TAW has _ever_ had spies in SAS. You on the other hand, exist purely to put spies in any and every syndicate you consider a threat to your precious streaks. We fight against whoever is matched with us, whilst you have actively avoided us time and time again. The truth hurts. Lmao.

We have beaten you plenty times head to head...do you want the ss posted? The plain truth is, you have _never_ placed #1 despite trying several times...FACT, FACT, FACT. Suck it.

I'll give you one thing though, you are #1 at spouting a constant stream on meaningless drivel. Whatever.

...and the mods should ban you for that expletive you wrote above.

[Ajones]

Happy, I too may follow your example if this is not resolved to my satisfaction by the end of my current gold supply.

[Ajones]

I agree there is too many accusation being thrown around on both sides.
