    maybe people should stay on the board when they are shielded. it's not like they can lose points. have it so they can't retaliate. then they will be big point targets for those still climbing.

    I think it'd be nice if shielded players weren't invisible. But then people could hit max, swap to cupcake, and get farmed for infinite points. Maybe if their score "phantom" decreased anytime they lost while shielded so that shielded players would be visible and hittable but only worth a finite amount of points to other players?

    Maybe one option would be that shielded players could be targeted once before going invisible, you wouldn't be able to hammer somebody, but would get a bunch of viable targets.

    This has been sugessted before and, no, just, no. Couple of issues here. First, if anyone can find you, they can hit whenever. Doesnt sound bad, but itd make pvp more like pve and shield hopping would be useless because you could take a hit 1 second after you un# if someone had qd you already. Even if you want to set it so they cant lose points if you start a match while they are shielded, how long after they un# would they lose it? What if a match took 20minutes? Skipping for no qs isnt much fun, but its part of the game. Try going at different times, you may find one ml ore active.

    In response to putting everyone in one shard, thats how it used to be from what i understand and people complained it catered toncertain time zones, which ot did. Hence the 5 options. If you allowed cross-slice qs, that wouldnt work either, you could just join s5 and get the biggest qs from earlier slices, itd be one giant wave. Great news for s5 guys,but not really anyone else.

    Welcome to my nightmare, been that way for me for so long I've forgotten the last time I got 1000 points. My thought is, if I have enough points that I'm visible to everyone then-

    everyone should be visible to me!

    You really don't want that.

    There are probably 100 players on <100 points for every player with more points than you that is unshielded. Enjoy that skipping.
