What is the tie breaker for Territory War?(I'm sorry if this has been covered somewhere, but I browsed and searched - both these forums and the internet in general - and still can't seem to find the info anywhere.)

There isn’t one. Both guilds get 2nd place rewards if they tie.

They could at least make you tie for 1st instead of tie for 2nd. Shame.(Thanks for the response, though!)tie for second prevents coordinating a tie to both get 1st place rewards

Also the reward difference is super minor.

Boom, first place rewards for everyone.

What do we need a tie breaker for? How often has a tie happened since the scoring changes?

I think I covered that in my post you're responding to... Excerpt:

... it's probably not something that happens frequently enough for CG to actually fix it. ... But still, it's a shame (even if a minor one).

If I misunderstood your question, I apologize.

What I mean is, because a tie is extremely unlikely, why bother creating a tie breaker? From an ROI standpoint, why would CG bother? It might not have even happened at all in the last 2 years since they made the change.

So, what I am asking is, why do you think they should fix a problem that doesn't exist?

I would agree it's not game-changing, but I wouldn't call an extra zeta and omega mat super minor, especially at the lower levels and for non-whale players.

Again, I feel like I covered this. Excerpt:

To be clear, I'm not asking for CG to fix it. If the information was available, and I didn't have to post here to find out there was no tie breaker, it's really not something I would even have started a post about. But you guys love to take any minor complaint or (attempt at constructive) feedback and blow it all out of proportion.

So, I apologize. Especially since I'm not a kraken and haven't spent thousands of dollars on the game, I have no right to provide any feedback or expect any consideration of my opinion.

Y'all have a nice day.

I'm always surprised how many people here expect full agreement when they make a thread.

I'm not expecting full agreement. But especially where the OP already said it's probably not worth the effort to fix it, it seems unnecessary and harpy-ish to swoop in and imply that I'm wrong for even mentioning it because it's not worth fixing. It seems both redundant and needlessly combative and/or dismissive. It could have easily been said, "Yeah, that is a bit of a bummer in your circumstance, but I agree it's probably not a big enough problem to warrant a 'fix'."

Generally speaking, I try to stay constructive and build understanding even in disagreement, rather than try to diminish or dismiss others' opinions. But that's just me, and obviously not an internet or even forum mandate. That said, I know it's impossible to win with trolls and I've said my peace, so I'll just unsubscribe.

I'm not combative, but probably am dismissive. I don't think it's an issue for several reasons:
1. It doesn't actually happen
2. The rewards difference aren't enough to bother with
3. The reason it gives 2nd place rewards is valid

I'm not trolling, I'm just disagreeing that TW needs a tiebreaker at all, regardless of the fact that you agree it's not a needed change. Prior to scoring changes it could have been warranted, because ties happened all the time, and even then people were more mad about their win record than the rewards.

People really need to learn the difference between a troll and a difference of opinion.

@StarSon Your input is noted and well understood. Where comments have come off as combative is that they seem to imply I'm wrong for asking for a fix, when in fact I never did. That's where my responses to you have been of the general theme that we don't disagree. I agree it's not worth a fix, as I said from the beginning. That doesn't mean it's not a (minor) shame, at least in my opinion, but again probably not one I'd have even posted about if I didn't have to ask the tie breaker question to begin with.

And I do appreciate those who have engaged in an informative and even positive/joking manner, (esp. SithVicious & CamaroAMF). I think most of the toxicity, both in this thread and all over these forums, is from TVF. Having come to that very pertinent conclusion, I'll probably just look for a way to ignore/mute him.
