Jesus. Some of us pay a lot to play this game. I dropped a vault or two to max my BH right before start. All of the posts about launching this on a weekend are so right. When has CG ever done the right thing? FML for being so addicted to this game.
*sighs*
All this about weekend launches.
The exhibition- which was stated explicitly to be a test run- was tied to the title update. The title update was a three-day process that occurred from Monday to Wednesday. Thursday was launch and signups. Friday was matchmaking and the first defense phase. Saturday was the first attack phase, when the critical error occurred. Had this exhibition continued, tomorrow would have also been a critical event, the first round transition. That is seven consecutive days of key events, with an eighth key event on day ten, the final resolution and payout.
Please tell me how you would fit this seven-day sequence of linked key events into a five-day work week with none of them falling on a weekend?
Let's say you choose to decouple the title update and exhibition. A move which would involve delays that this playerbase is not patient with no matter how much they say they hypothetically would be when moves to get prompt content encounters snags. Now, you have to place a seven-day exhibition with key events on days 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7 in a five day work week. The only way to do that is to launch on Tuesday. If they started on Tuesday, then the launch would still be three days out and they'd have no data. Because they launched Thursday, it crashed, they got data, and they're still ahead of a Tuesday launch.
Project management!
Further, this was explicitly stated to be a trial run. If you chose to spend a large number of resources on a trial run, that's on you. Not on CG.

Real project management would not accept failures of this scale for such a mature product. Real project manage.ent would clean house of poor performing resources.... just saying...

Hahaha so much is broken
Why start this over a weekend? Was it the same person who made you guys always post big controversial posts on Fridays too?
Can CG get anything right before a weekend? More at 11!

Crazy how many things were screwed up on this beta-test... Oh wait I mean "exhibition" ?
But hey, I will take some free rewards for doing nothing! ? Just wish they would have made it more clear what this was really gonna be.
You mean like when they said...

As you are aware, we are running two Exhibition events to ensure the feature is working as intended and to allow players to practice with the feature before engaging in the full Championships.
Testing is an explicit function of the exhibition.

You know you complainers sound so childish. Why don't you get a job doing this and play your own game if this one bothers you that much. Childish.
Spoken like a true cat lover. I'll bet you have like 40,000 of them in your lap right now.
