Also, the UI follows the same pattern as raids and other events. First button brings you to a view, next button brings you into the event as a member of said event. Consistency is key to a clear and usable UI.

Agree. Consistency is priority. But you don't get assigned ranking before you have joined raid. So, at least in this part, consistency is broken. One of mods, or devs mentioned that this may be confusing. If this is confusing, and they acknowledge it, then there's a space for improvement, right?

Who could have known one can take part in Feats without taking part in GA, whereas some Feats are directly linked with player's activity during GA? It's not obvious, and I never saw it discussed or mentioned. I think it's the first time people came to realise at all that they may be disconnected if you forget to do something.

Dude, you need to chill out. You have no one to blame but yourself for not clicking join.

I made a mistake, but it turns out that the renewed enrollment process was "confusing", to use the word the devs used themselves. Seems like there are two parties to blame.

It's funny you're so demanding when you made the mistake. Show a little gratitude while their confirming you simply failed to click join.

I think I deserve the same gratitude from the devs for raising/supporting this topic on forums and helping them make the game better. There's an issue, and the issue needs to be solved for other people not to get confused in the future.

When I'm demanding answers here's what I expect to hear:

Q) What is the action plan here? What are the next steps?
Q) How do we (all the players on the list) get to participate in GAC?

We need an explanation if we're locked out from GA for the rest of the Championship or still have a chance to join next week.

Q) What steps can be taken to make sure this does NOT happen again?

The devs could take notice of cool ideas - say, making a GAC/GA icon that changes color once you've joined.
They could have made a separate thread in the Announcements section and explain that while we're all authomatically enrolled in GAC, it doesn't mean we've joined GA, because it's confusing.

I think it's normal to provide feedbak and get answers from the devs, whereas your "chill out, dude" adds nothing to the discussion.

Again with the self righteousness...you deserve nothing regardless of what you believe.

However, feedback is good to improve a system. Misplacing blame and acting like a crime was committed against you is laughable.

Sure, the system can be approved, but self accountability and simply paying attention works for most people.
