    You could be wrong considering that player data needs to be sent to both rival syndicates upon being matched to each other. Maybe not so dumb...

    Edit: This topic has gone 22 pages without an official response from GREE. Which is what I'm most interested in. (Will agree, that's too many)

    Plus skill point allocation.. I know you guys with million+ atk/def don't care... It is still an advantage to know these things that the average player would otherwise not know.
    Unless your stats are 4-figures skill points are irrelevant. Even then it's debatable.

    lso, if you don't see it as an issue and that you're positive it's obsolete & no longer in use.. Why are you still discussing this? Don't you have better things to do than go back and forth with the little fish in the pond?

    Also have to add- For supposedly not being a proponent of this database, you sure know a lot about it. More than you're willing to tell I'd bet.
    I've explained repeatedly in this thread why I talk about it.

    And I don't decide who I do and don't talk to based on their stats or their syndicate. You seem hungup on a weird 99%-er vibe, with some big kabal at the top keeping all the little people down or some similar nonsense.

    I know about it because it was discussed, at length, by all involved. On the forums. Publicly. I know most of the people behind it and most of the people targeted by it, so I've heard all about it privately, too.

    And it is not more than I've let on. Between myself and the other guys in this thread who know what's going on we've given just about as much information about the database as is possible to give. But because this information just reinforces what we're saying you choose to believe that we're hiding all the juicy bits. People love conspiracies, but in the end if you take them at all seriously you're taking the first few dozen steps down a road that leads to excellence in tin-foil hat design.

    k thx for the background on how you've been involved with it. Now do this one (and read my reply to BigMoney)

    "You ignored the Synd War scouting thing by telling me that intel-sharing occurs at "my level". Don't ignore the program/database's potential advantages in a syndicate war. Okay?"

    I didn't ignore it, I've answered it repeatedly within this thread.

    Myself and others pointed out that scouting info-sharing is more effective than the database would be, if anyone used it, anyway. So use the real, existing tools that provide the benefits. Don't worry about the hypothetical uses of a non-used tool that would be less effective.

    As it stands your concern with the database is that people who don't have it might use it for something it's never been used for to perform an easily performed function to a lesser standard. As I've said time and time again - this is not in the top-10 issues in CC today.

    Okay, fine..... Still want Official word from GREE. Regardless as to what it will be.

    Two things though,
    1.)Anyone who's, in the know answer, is not GREE's answer
    2.)A lack of an answer from GREE, does not mean, "It's okay", is their answer.

    So I'll leave it at that. Had fun going back & forth with you all & thanks for increasing awareness of this "obsolete & no longer used" tool. Especially, for those of us who weren't on the forum when the initial discussion took place.

    (I enjoy being a pest, if that hasn't been made apparent)

    In case you missed it in the other thread, transferring accounts between players is a TOS violation.

    Everyone from top syndicates sharing intel should be banned for modifying gameplay for others.

    BF Tuna, if you have that much IP at rank 210, you might want to consider a higher placed syndicate. If your stats are good enough, you can apply for almost every group in the top 25..

    The question at hand is not the sharing of intel but how the intel was obtained.......pretty sure you already knew that.

    The only time I've seen any mention of a team having intel on a team through any means other than scouting was Solemn Carnage having Rogues' full team and stats before the war ever started. Someone asked that question in one of these marathon threads. Give me an hour or two and I'll find who asked it.
