Leaderboard for january shenanigans

How was one guild able to run more raids than physically possible during the month of January?
  • Yo! I'm in Bad Motivator, we got top 10 in January. Basically, you have to sacrifice a raid and prepare the week before to have max tickets and both raids going as you enter January. We saved, but didn't sacrifice a raid for the cause

    I don't know the math on it and maybe someone from conclave can explain it but I would assume it would have to do with when their payout is in comparison to their time zone and the leaderboard rest. As a member of one of those 7400 teams I do find it a bit annoying that someone can score more then to max 7400 without dev help. Maybe the devs need to look into a regional set up for the boards.
  • I've been crunching numbers today and only way I found is if their guild reset time is before the points reset on the day. Either that or they were awarded extra tickets somehow.
  • Start a raid 47 hours before end of month, max your tickets before?

    I don't think they were given extra tickets. I do recall they were on the board very early. So I would assume it is time zone based. Would love one of their members to explain how they did it and what time they collect coins at.
  • We lost out to the Russian guilds like Starforge last month based on time zone so I'd imagine it's something similar

    The Top of the list....
  • 31 days in Jan plus 150000 Max coins is 18 rancor. Plus the raid launched in Dec but finished in Jan is 19. That was the Max.
