Ok I've read everything I could find on how the new slotting system works for tw. So can anyone explain to me wth happened here?

Friday

20:00 TERRORIST v Enrage sub max refund guild
20:03 Dominus v Enrage 130ish members of avg level of 98ish 3 month old guild so I assume max/close to max refund
20:06 GoldDigrz v Enrage New guild of 30 members 1 week old so very low max refund

Saturday

20:00 xTAINTEDx v Enrage sub max refund guild
20:03 Synesis v Enrage not sure of strength but old system = max refund guild
20:06 Mortal v Enrage close and possible max refund guild
20:09 Drakon v TheEmpire This bid shouldn't matter at all I assume w/ anything


Sunday

Radiance v Enrage #2 tw guild on the map

Now the comments in yellow = info about the guilds. Now here is where I am confused. Radiance bid FIRST on wednesday and got stuck all alone on sunday night. Dominus bid fourth on thursday overall and got sent to friday night with 1 and possibly 2 sub max refund guilds. Those are the only ones I know of (bid times) off the top of my head.

If I understood the new slotting system correctly wouldn't the 1st 3 "max refund" guilds get slotted together on saturday night that bid? How the hell did Radiance get sent to sunday night all alone? How did Dominus (who bid 4th) get sent to friday night w/ non max refund guilds? Is there more to the slotting system I'm unaware of?

    tw's go like this first 3 to bid get saturday night the next 3 get friday the 3 after that get sunday but then it changes a bit cause it needs to coordinate the tws with the other guilds too so an attack and defense cant be on the same day. The Max refund of a guild means nothing but its strength it wont change how the tw times are.

    about the best i can explain.

    Everything has its beginnings, but it doesn't start at one. It starts long before that... The world is born From zero. The moment zero becomes one is the moment the world springs to life. One becomes 2. 2 becomes 10. 10 becomes 100. taking it all back to one solves nothing. so long as zero remains... One.. Will eventually grow to 100 again.

    They changed the time layout from the old system to stop people from exploiting it. Its quite possible they shifted it again to something more random since again, people were exploiting it. Just count yourself (or the bidders) lucky they arent doing actual bans for exploiting the system.

    You obviously didn't full read my post as the 1st bid got sent to tw all alone on sunday night whereas the 4th bid was sent to friday night.

    I think the new scheduling system is very similar to the old scheduling system except instead of the relative position of land within a faction's territory for the initial ordering they use the time when that land was first bid upon.

    For all I know that was the only change.

    did you not read what i typed too you only typed one faction's tw list where i know there are more wars then that. the tws are also based on the other faction so if they had 4 bids on them and then attacked the faction it would get pushed to sunday night.

    There was 1 other tw last weekend and it was Drakon declaring on The Empire. Every other tw was an attack on Enrage (Enrage was outbid by Drakon on The Empire).

    After talking to someone who monitors the bidding closely last night it turns out that the following occured:
    Bid 1 Radiance= 1v1 on Sunday night
    Bid 2-4= 3 way gank on Friday night
    Bid 5-7= 3 way gank on Saturday night.

    Hopefully can get some more good info on this and post results after today.
