If they want us to have 5 attempts, then change the duration from 3 days to 2 days, it's more then enough time for 5 fights

Why would that matter

Because 3 days to do 5 attacks is way too much time. I rather enjoy the current format, 3 days is perfect, 5 attempts a day is perfect.

This just boils down to another example of CG not doing what they have stated.

They communicated it four times that I am aware of:
1. February Road Ahead had a section talking about all new raids would have a maximum number of total attempts per player.
2. Raid Summary references “Total Attempts” versus “Daily Attempts”. For reference, look at the Krayt summary, then look at a Legacy Raid summary.
3. Launch day bug reports from meathead included the maximum of 5 attempts per player not working correctly.
4. The update details also referenced this, stating they already fixed it though.

If you want to argue that it should be 5/day, no problem. But CG is just going to ignore you if your only point is you think they didn’t communicate it.

1. Feb RA doesn't state a number, just that attempts will be limited. Different for each raid.
2. Total attempts: 5. Could be worded better....but thats a nit pic.
3. Fair point.
4. Also fair point.
BUT, if 5 attempts per player were really intended, then why did Waffleking state that if you have 7 teams, you can post 7 scores and neither Crumb or Meat corrected him? Why would he even think using 7 teams was a thing if you couldn't do it?

Why did the raid launch with this system in place? How did this make it past QA? Seems like it would be really easy to test....but I can believe this one as testing doesn't seem to be a focus anymore.

The point in the RA was a limited number of total attempts per player, not per day. The Feb RA was almost 3 months before release, so maybe the number wasn’t decided yet. But the system was.

I can’t answer about Waffleking; I assume you are referring to the live feed which I didn’t watch. But the print communication was pretty clear.

As for testing, not sure this would have shown up as they would have had to test the raid for more than 24 hours. I doubt they were paying someone to test five attacks then sit around for 24 hours to see if it reset. If they still had the player test program, maybe it would have been caught.
