Hello,Could we have some information about the frequency of this event ?I mean, this is a great idea, but so far, 2 oppenents, one was bugged, and the other one didn't even bother playing. So if this will by a once in a month thing, well, it seems a lot of effort for pretty much no fun. Hope this is a weekly event, considering how little time is needed to play it, with basically 2 minutes to set defenses and like 20 minutes at most for the offenses, within 48 hours. So far, the hype was equally high that it is low after testing it.

Well if GA 2.0 is like GA 1.0 hopefully enough people do not bother playing it will go the way of tournaments...(actually i was not here yet for that would have been cool to try it). Anyway Just say NO to GA !!!!!!! No on 16... er GA no on GAChant with me NO on GA no on GAEdit heh no on 16. I loved that movie booger prestley on the guitar !!!!I say no to this post.It's way too early to make blanket statements about GA, especially since we haven't even had a full one yet.

Otherwise, it's been the same pattern for months and months, until this month.

GAs being a week long, with only 3 days of actually fighting...is way to slow.

There's plenty to do already in the game.TW is about the slowest things should get. But there is a lot more to do in TW anyway. More possible D teams to set. More attacks possible to do. Coordinating with other people takes longer...and there isn't 4 days of down time in TW.

What extra TWs?

We went from 3 to 5 a month

No we didn't.

Cadence was 2 TW one week, TB next, rinse and repeat. There was one month where TB broke and they made it up to us by compressing the following month to fit the missing TB in. Otherwise, it's been the same pattern for months and months, until this month.

It's fine. There's plenty to do already in the game.

TW is about the slowest things should get. But there is a lot more to do in TW anyway. More possible D teams to set. More attacks possible to do. Coordinating with other people takes longer...and there isn't 4 days of down time in TW.

With 3 seperate 24 hr phases we could do it as much as twice per week. Give a rest day in the middle. Say, Mon-Wed, rest Thurs, Fri-Sun. No rest between the Sun and the Mon though... Unless it goes to 3 phases, rest day, 3 phases, rest day, then you would get 7 or 8 per month... I'd like it a bit more than once per week though.

Each run will take a full week. The phases will be Preview - Def 1 - Off 1 - Def 2 - Off 2 - Def 3 - Off 3 each 24h long, so seven days in total. My guess is that it will be monthly.

Oh yeah, duh. This was just a exhibition.

Carry on. Nothing to see here. These aren't the droids you're looking for.

Preview - Def 1 - Off 1 - Def 2 - Off 2 - Def 3 - Off 3 - Review

8 days. Today's Dev post stated there's a review phase after this event, so that means the review phase has already been coded and we can assume we'll have at least 1 review phase as well. Let's just hope there no review phase after each offense phase.

I'm hoping for twice. Once a month doesn't seem like enough for such a big new feature. I would be fine if there were 4 per month and we were just running them continuously but I'm sure you're right that it won't be more than 2.
