raid sched change 9am server time to 6pm =) sea/ocx/au to early eu.

or 7pm 8gmt to 2 am 8gmt

there are good and bad in both. but higher tiers are.more focused on holding defending and has more coverage.

competition drives people. of course you want to win. =)

alliances will happen. meetings will yake place. plans will be made. in short, servers vs servers vs servers.

not for my ego, but for wvw.

global reset. before tourney starts all will have no server. from there, choose.

sure some servers will be stacked but thats just how it is.

or the opposite. they will play more because it has meaning by tournaments. Glory of being no.1 =)

> Players did play long hours during the tourneys but that's not what drove a lot away. It was all the glaring imbalances and lag (that people noticed and became irritated with during the tourneys) that turned people off after the first tourney. It was real frustrating when you are about to cap SMC or (insert objective) and lag comes in and no skills happens for minutes then you find out your dead and it just so happened the lag gods favored one of the other sides., and when that happens over and over in a competition people get real upset. Most of the people that quit the game cause of lag are long gone but I remember that being a big factor and causing double digits of players from a couple guilds I played for to quit. So yes technically Anet is correct in saying that tourneys resulted in player loss but that isn't the WHOLE truth. :)

we still have those without the tourney. :/ so why not return tourneys hehe

winning the week has no meaning now.

players quit now for whatever reason. players rest then come back

it wasn't so bad. was fun then. hope they will open up for this in the future.

Untill you can personally adapt your body to lift a 77 Chevrolet long bed pick up over your head with those noodly arms of yours, the player base cannot adapt to the current meta to a level that will demonstrate a universal enjoyment of it among the player base.

yes it does.

yes i is limited to the fame mechanics which has nothing to do with that analogy.

One can hope =) wvw is meaningless for now. until they do tourneys

it can restart agai =)

=) why assume it will end bad when it was good before.

fight for your server. for your allies. and money source for anet is from the pve guys.

players do not transfer every week.

to fight poison use poison. =)

> We already have THAT purpose. Tournaments were a proven fail, the only good thing that came out of them was the limited use finishers that should have been re-used by Anet imo.

for now there is no meaning to wvw.

tourneys were the best time wvw had. =)

Raid schedule

8am server time to 4pm server time. =) open tag.

support scourge. =)

deso will be fine. =)

yes =) it gives wvw meaning.

yup difficult to coordinate purge flames mabtra of solace and light fields plus resist. but it can be done with practice.

rite of dwarf and demon stance helps too

=) he who is skilled will adapt and make things work.
