If we assume you're being migrated into leaderboards that were created one day one of ships, then you'll be fine. Keep in mind that they made thousands of leaderboards that day.
Well that’s the issue, it seems like they are just going to split this shard in half which doesn’t solve any of the issues.
Keep in mind that we haven't seen the in-game message you're talking about. I can't draw any conclusions from messages I don't have. But, from what you've said, it doesn't sound like it's a straight 50/50 split into two new leaderboards. From what you've said it sounds like they're taking your current board and breaking it up into existing boards that are now normally-populated. So if the average board had 500 players (which, again, is a guess--but a slightly more educated guess. I spent 6 days straight at 321 in my board by just starting a battle and retreating instantly, so we're probably not far off) and your board has 500 players, then they're not just going to break you into two leaderboards with a population of 750 and leave all the others at 500.
It sounds like they're going to normalize you. But, again, you have to keep in mind that it's hard for us to say anything since we don't know what they told you. We only have our interpretation of your interpretation of what they told you, which is a photocopy of a photocopy of a photocopy.
