    Happy Friday, everyone!

    It's crazy to think it's already October, I don't know where the year has gone.

    Not a lot of updates for this week's TGIF, but a few things we want to mention:

    Punch Bug Fixed

    Earlier this week some players were experiencing some issues with punching. The developers were able to quickly get a fix out and clear out the bug.

    Thanks to the players who let us know and to the devs for the speedy resolution :)

    Pirate Clan Location Update

    Just a reminder that last week we released our new Pirate Clan location of Madagascar.

    This week the Boss and Treasure Hunt challenge has been released and Crafting will be coming next!

    General Updates

    Boss Health Bars - Some may have noticed an off colour silver on some boss health bars which has since been fixed.

    Also next week is Canadian Thanksgiving and our office will be closed on Monday. There may be a slight increase in wait times for tickets for anyone that writes in over the next couple days.

    Lame Joke of the Week

    What happened when the Turkey got into a fight?
    He got the stuffing knocked out of him!

    Where is the explanation for the raid stuffup from last week where they ripped everyone off with 20% less damage done on each attack the silence is deafning

    I thought I noticed that too... Also, how many people are participating in raids? now we have a 50, 25, and 5% benchmark, how about color coding the placement list like individual raid progress status. Green = 5% , Yellow = 25 , red = 50 , and black above (or whatever scheme you want), but let us know. I finished 1188th, 647th, and 318th. All ranked in 25% but none above 5 % and I have no idea how close i was on either side.

    In all fairness, I said in Kong day 1 there was a massive defense increase/weaker atts. Averaged ~ 70k att damage (20 stam barrage of course) rather than the usual low 100k att's with a full team. As for the why, may well be to have a "bad" raid season after lifting the raid cap. Do bare in mind than Mitch even said that (and I paraphrase here) "Although the numbers were good, overwhelming negative feedback led us to remove the cap". A "bad" season would help push for reintroducing the cap if you want to be all tin foil hatty. Most likely they got the balance wrong and have been too busy to address it mid-season.

    I really like that for an idea. In BA you can scroll through the whole leaderboard & it lists total participants so it's easy to work those figures out. Bit of guesstimation with the raid 5% cut-off.

    But going back to the original point, I was on here a load during last raids to let feeling known. Thought I'd wait to see the fallout for this one rather than just talk to a wall. I would say put in a ticket if you want any response. Slight abuse of the system but it's not like they regularly reply here despite this area supposedly being the main route for feedback/comments that aren't ticket worthy.

    Dont see the point in making this game into something that it is not. This is a clickety click game. There is a small element of "fighting" but the fighting is just clicking on a (mostly) black screen in response to text prompts and click boxes. Absolutely no real fighting gameplay.

    If interested in a REAL fighting game, switch to a first person shooter game with a graphical interface such as Fortnite, the newly released Assasins Creed Olympus or one of the versions of Halo. They would satisfy your bloodlust better than a clickety click game. Also in Fortnite and other games you can actually talk directly to other players in real time. Then you wont be wasting time and money on a non-fighting clicking game you consider pathetic

    I agree with the raid damage. What took 6k actions now takes 7500 to do the same damage. Money grab one way or another that has not been addressed. The earlier response was (we didn't change anything) Right! /// Looking at how C.A.S.H finished (post #3) and got the 25% rewards, I finished way higher in all three categories. Funny how we can only see the top 4 pages. Are the top 4 pages the 5%? Who really knows, they won't show how many accounts are actually doing raids. I would like to see a total breakdown of all who played this raid season posted somewhere, anywhere! My thinking is, they want it a secret so they get less tickets on their math abilities. How about, have the leader board set up and show the top of whatever section you are in. Say if in the 25% then show the highest 25% person, not the very top person. Something to that effect might make the leaderboard worth looking at for those of us in that section. Or, something like, 25 more kills to get to top 5%. Just something.

    There was a thread created around Daily Rewards this past weekend that I have responded to. We are in process of making some changes to the Daily Rewards and one of them will be the daily reset. We are going to move this to a calendar day system to remove a lot of the ambiguity and confusion.

    Where is the explanation for the raid stuffup from last week where they ripped everyone off with 20% less damage done on each attack the silence is deafning, there has been no reply whatsoever

    Its obvious that there was no "stuffup". The new Spectre raid in LCN was simply made about twenty percent stronger than the older ones.

    I adapted to the changes without spending extra: I only opened one raid myself instead of three and skipped the public raids completely. Completed 8 instead of 10 . No big deal. World keeps turning.
