I'm the first to shout when there are things I don't like. But this is probably the best effort they have made towards the community in months. They have to be backed and not bashed/criticized. After all the efforts we've made to make the end times change (and the money they have invested in it), we would just say : throw the whole thing to the garbage because 20 people could show the system can be abused ? We would lose ALL CREDIT if we asked them to go back to what it was. Don't expect any future change in the game if you destroy time shards.

Even though I could not find a match worthing more than 25 points in the last hours, and considering I was a high scorer in my shard, I was queued like I had never been before. So I hardly could unshield either. I wouldn't mind adapting my gameplay if I can sleep better and improve my health. Many EU players wake up at night for MPQ. They are addict there is nothing to be done about that. So we should think about this first. Most of the player base was not affected by these changes, only the Top 20 Alliances probably was. MPQ does not revolve around the Top 20, and D3P made us understand that long ago. Now, about season rankings (Alliance/Players) : - what difference does it make if you are Top 10/5/1 in the Season considering the **** rewards you get ? - haven't you proved so far you were a good player in the last months ? As long as ranking higher does not bring more juicy reward, I don't see why we should be bothered by the time shards... X-Men guys want to break the ceiling every event. Let them do. If others want to challenge them, let them do. Once again, you proved that one can succeed with money (and luck) in MPQ, but that's nothing new. The new system has to be improved, not deleted.
