    Also 50 crystals for first time kill. I think it was 56 tokens?

    Yea, and like 1.5m honors if you're into that sort of thing.

    So, my alt account has been suspended. All I used was Viramate, so they are officially soft-banning people that use it.

    Spoiler: show


    Only other thing I do is use my alt account to host/join my own raids, so I suppose that could also be it? Been doing this a lot for GW for farming purposes, but my main is currently fine.

    The crew we got matched up against has several (not all of them, but several) Rank 101+'s, whereas my crew currently only has one. So by all means, we should probably lose to them, but we've currently got about a 190M honor advantage. When do the JP usually do their big rushes during the Finals periods? I assume it's still the final hour of each day?

    Most JP guilds will have both of their ATs at the final 2 hours. If that 200mil lead is without hell you're probably in good shape if you have some people awake during the rush to keep watch on the score.

    That's weird I haven't stopped using VM and poker and I'm fine. Hmm.

    Someone in my guild was banned 2 hours ago for pokerbotting. He never used viramate. HRT posted another twitter message around the same time saying they're going to start doing permabans for people eventually too instead of just building up temp bans.

    I wonder if it's only pokerbot or was he pokerbotting during a raid and etc? It's interesting because I was using it for like 5 hours last night specifically, but I was turning it off when I was in battles.

    Wtf? Is Danua as shitty as she looks?

    Hoping someone might be able to help. I signed up for a JP account back some time ago and now I'm getting emails 1-2 times a week. I can't figure out a way to unsubscribe. Oddly enough Chrome doesn't offer to translate some of the pages that come up when I go to my page or for settings change and I have zero clue how to navigate around. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    That 200M was unfortunately with Nightmare already done. They've somehow managed to close almost 90M of that gap in the past hour though, and it was gradual instead of a spike so I don't think they've done their Nightmare yet. I would assume that gap shortening was their first strike time though.

    We're probably boned, but at least we made is past prelims.

    Do JPs even use their Strike Time for their Nightmare? It seems entirely unnecessary, and the team we're going against has their Strike Times set up back-to-back from 21:00-23:00, and I get this feeling their only going to do EX+ during it, and then will pop and kill their Nightmare in the last 15minutes. Is this a common practice for the JP to save their Nightmare until the final few minutes to give opponents a false sense of security?

    Yea. They could also all turn a bunch of EX+ in one at once and then do hell for a giant boost in points to scare you in the last couple minutes and cause panic. Most do it during AT anyways because it's just easier to organize and have a set time for people to know when to be on.

    Another tactic is to do hell really early but have people wait to turn it in. Then you slowly turn it in over an hour or 2 so it looks like you got an extra 100mil without even doing hell.

    That is really interesting to know. Especially the not turning in Nightmare bit. As of late, I've been having trouble letting raids sit in my pending battles though; it constantly wants me to turn them in before I can do anything else.

    Yeah during GW you can't have any pending battles before doing anything else. So if you wait to turn it in you're basically taking a break

    Not at laptop for like another 10 hours, is VM being nuked from appstore akin to it no longer working? Or is it just unavailable if you don't already have it?

    My Viramate still works; you just won't be able to redownload it it seems.

    Well, they legitimately closed that gap on meat/EX+ alone, then popped their Nightmare at 25min left (sudden ~100M jump when they had been very active for two hours prior) when we started to close the gap with our own ST. Dang.
