Club Wars bubble issue
My club (I'm not the president) just lost to a team who got ahead in points and then just left all their citys bubbled so we could not attack them. We lost by only a few points, is there a way to get ...

well you are the one surprised that this can be type of a strategy, did you think your first post was worth more than my replay?
So you are saying that you are happy playing games where the best strategy is not playing?
I was surprised that the developer would not have thought about this and come up with the simple fix of putting a time limit on fixing buildings and losing war items. What developer WANTS you to just stop playing?
My surprise was not the type of strategy, but that there was not a implementation to prevent it.
My club does not deliberately sit in a bubble but do attack those not playing on the other side.We get points and you do not get war materials to use against us.Hit me and I will use those against you even if I am busy doing seasons.not all players are available to play every war. I do not believe in making a grown adult do something they have decided not to do.
Agree, we do the same thing, but if the players are not participating, and they are timed out on getting out of the bubble, their team will lose more points, because the opponents will be able to attack again, and they loose the war making items.
this will force presidents to either keep non players or find new members that will participate.
While I completely agree with your postition, I believe the 4 hour window is not realistic. When you take into consideration the different time zones the mayor’s club are in and the fact the majority of folks either work or are in school it’s too short a window. I proposed an18 hour window for cities that launched an attack that were hiding in the bubble would have the city repaired automatically (earning no war items) and be subject to attack. It is only fair that cIties that did not launch an attack and were bubbled can only be attacked if they elect to repair their city during the war game (you already had a free attack). Is this a perfect solution - no, but it’s a lot better than we have today.
That’s not the issue at all (players that aren’t available to play - that happens). It’s the deliberate strategy of running out the clock to win when available players are not repairing. Imagine if during a football or baseball game one team just sat on the bench and stopped playing once they got ahead! How long would that be allowed?
The problem is that a win is worth quite a bit and the war items are fairly costly. If you are going to win, you can play it safe and stay bubbled. At that point, you will get the cards you earned and the green money and war dollars ect,, but you also can stop getting war deliveries. When you are doing a COM and war at the same time that can be difficult, best to take advantage of the rules and stay bubbled, concentrate on COM and take the win.
Not how I like to play but I get why teams do it. It is an option so you can't really blame teams for taking advantage, the only way to "fix" it is to change the rules. In hockey you would get delay of game, in boxing you would start losing points...
