Those ties, again.

I lost 5 pts in this event, and I’m currently 68th in Platinum.

And that’s fine, I’ll get me a rare, and I don’t really deserve to be in the top 5 given that I played my first game without any spirits in my deck icon_razz.gif

A little bird tells me, tho, that they’ve dropped 3 pts in Gold, and they’re in the top 5. What? really?

Does Gold Tier need to be a little bigger and Platinum a little smaller maybe? There’s at least 1,600 players in the single Platinum Tier bracket this event. How big is the Gold bracket? Is there more than one?

Wish I was in that bracket. I’m currently 7th in gold with perfect and at least 11 people have the same score.

3

Definitely more than one bracket, with a softer second bracket.

Don’t worry, it will normalize pretty quickly when people realize they no longer have to rush to play at the start of the event.

I’m in the same bracket as you. Same score (105) and currently 12th.

I’m not complaining though. Before they overhauled the node refresh mechanic, I had 0% chance of getting anywhere near the leaderboard.

Had finfished 10 minutes after node refresh and placed at 6.
Thats only frustating. Thats no fun at all

I’ve just recently moved up to gold and I had planned to stay up till 4am (since I was already up till 230) to try to compete for top 5 at reset… But I napped out and didn’t wake up to my alarm.

I’m hearing that there was a bracket which only had 3 perfect scores about an hour ago… but when I finished an hour ago, I finished 16th in my bracket. I wonder if they’ll ever get a system in place that doesn’t screw over more than 33% of their player base lol

At least at Platin something have to change. I regret to go to platinum.
Ive got Full pts and this cant be right. Usually i work at these time and cant go for it within 10 minutes and then just to get place 6 and a fatpack wirhout rares

I still cannot fathom how a time based tie breaker is a good idea!

So if someone scores a perfect round but they had to complete the last refresh a few hours late because of work or life commitments and they end up 26th and no fat pack.. how is this fair?

Seriously, rewards should be given to the joint score - e.g. Joint 1st reward then say joint 28th reward (if there are 27 ties) and so on.

Stop with the stupid first come, first served basis, seriously.

This give to me the Feeling of wasted lifetime.
This way i loose the fun at this basicly cool Game.
Good for my wife, not so good for hibernum.
