    That may not be a complete troll job. I haven't gotten any rewards yet and the counter's still updating on the status page.

    I think we may be in soccer overtime on that one.

    What is this?!?!?!?

    I guess this is one way to chew through some of those health pack hoards out there coz I am needing 1 or 2 per every other battle so far...

    I’m not because I’m using one 4 star and two three stars. Making good use of daredevils stun lock. But it’s very slow. It’s only one event though and it’s all bonus rewards over my usual flow. So I won’t even go for anything more than 21 wins over the event. Play until my teams need healing and return the next day.

    Sometimes the time required isn’t worth the rewards. I can let that cp and fury cover go.

    I figure it is something like 8 battles per day FOR 7 DAYS, which on the face of it isn't super terrible. We have all become addicted to 5* match damage though - I kept on punching an enemy Fury waiting to get some AP and he was just like "Is that all you got?". As predicted Elektra's black is the VIP.

    What is this?!?!?!?

    Soccer games last 90 min., but if there's a play stoppage they don't stop the clock like in football or basketball. So when the 90 min. run out the referee adds extra time to make up for any play stoppages, but only the ref knows how much time he's going to add.

    Everybody else can see that the game clock is out, but the game's still going. It might go for another 5 min. It might go another 20 min. Eventually the ref will just say it's done and that's it.

    That kinda seems to be where the team up challenge is. The time is out, but I haven't gotten any rewards and the counters are still going. Maybe they added extra time because the roll out on that was such a mess.

    I have never heard it referred to as "overtime" in all my years of following the game, I guess this must be a US or Canadian term maybe?

    Yeah extra time is the usual term.

    Even Americans and Canadians refer to it as extra time.

    Overtime is when the game is tied and you play an extra 30 minutes (2 15 minute intervals).

    What you are referring to is "extra time", time added on at the end of each half used to be called Injury time but is now basically just called "additional time". The phrase "overtime" does not exist in football that I have ever heard of in the UK, Europe, World Cups etc. "Overtime" sounds very American sports. The fact it was combined with "Soccer" which is not an American term itself but an American adopted term used because your Handegg game is called "football" makes me extra suspicious.

    Anyway...10th Anniversary - I have a Paste Pot Pete feeling. 😎😎

    Anyone notice their event quests went from 2/11 to 1/11 even after completing the 2014 quests?

    Came here for this exact reason. Me and my alliance are seeing the same thing.

    Many in my alliance (including me) have had their number go from 2/11 to 1/11, but a few haven’t. I’m not too worried about it since the end is 2 months away, and task completion should be easy enough to verify.

    So I went from 2/11 to 1/11 a couple days ago. After updating today, I’m 1/10, so apparently, this really is a countdown…
