It's not always sandbagging.
How many defence slots you having to set? And have you definitely got the right guild? There's a few alliances out there that make tiny adjustments to the guild names.
Defence slots is 22 and we went in with a full guild so they 100% sand bagged
Again, it's not necessarily sandbagging. People have real lives. Everyone is really quick to accuse people of trying to cheat the system. I shouldn't have signed up for this TW as I have assignments due, but I did. We still are only going into TW with 40 as lots of guildies have stuff on this week.
Looks balanced on the GP front, going of average GP they have 316.8m GP signed up.
To the other guild does it matter whether the egregious imbalance is intentional or not. They are no less screwed because jears were in the right place. The fact it can happen unintentionally is a direct and immediate path to abuse as is the case with all exploits.
Why dont they just go straight across guild GP ?? Then we wont have this problem and if you lose then its your fault for having a crappy quality GP. Lets put the responsibilty back on the players to conduct quality competition not some kind of regulation that produces the opposite of the desired result.
Whole guild GP doesn't work. Then you end up with the same problem. If two guilds both with 300m GP face each other, one with 40 signed up and the other with 50, it's still a massive imbalance.
The most reasonable solution is to keep signed up GP, and incorporate the numbers signed up into matchmaking too. That way the average player GP will be equal for both guilds.
Those are all valid points, I'm suggesting that maybe the first algorithm period is total guild GP. After you get a close match on that, then let the sign up dynamic work itself out. There isn't a scenario where a 164m GP like mine will beat a 200m GP guild like the one we're hopelessly fighting today. 10 GL's to our 3. Do people really believe that the 200m guild is going to be nice and send its worst 30 to fight our 35?
This is the issue. Guilds that are in totally different realities are being matched.
