I could envision a situation where a player in Silver with a big base and no loot basically gets banned from playing again if all the things fall just right. Tell me this isn't real.
- Play for 3 hours + VG?
- Empties all loot into walls etc. Leaves really low loot.
- Maxed out TH10 scary looking base for anyone TH protected
- Offers less than 15k/15k/1000
- In silver so no cups
- Even collectors are guarded such that 30% is hard

Nope. They are finished. For good. If SC hasn't fixed this problem already, then obviously they want those players eliminated so there are more clouds for the rest of us.

So this means in english
"You went 30 minutes without getting a shield, you should be happy we let you even play."

Craig is totally screwed. That guy always spends hours online and then rushes to war attack right at the end. NOW, he will completely miss them.
Sorry man...couldn't resist!

Well it will be a big pain in the butt for people trying to coordinate late in wars. If your base is low value you could get locked out for 30 minutes.

That's ok, Jamie will steal his iPad and go on a rant in the SC forums for him.

I have no idea what this personal break stuff is. Wtf

Yeah... they'll have to do something with that locking you out three times thing. Other than that... so far, so good IMO.
John Bender

So if you're online for 3 hours straight you get the PBT? And then can't raid again until you're attacked?
Can someone explain this to me like I'm me?
Thanks

On for three hours and you get the boot.
If you get attacked and get a shield, it's just like always.
If you don't get attacked or get attacked but don't get a shield you get a 15 minute village guard to reset traps, raid, whatever.
But after the village guard is over you get booted again a 2nd, and the a 3rd time unless you get a shield.

What does "on for 3 hours" constitute? On without logging out period?
Could you dodge this by logging out for 5 minutes?

"Playing" includes clan chatting, watching war attacks, filling CC requests, redesigning bases, rebuilding armies, and (allegedly) village guard time even if you aren't online at all.

My TH8 that is fully loaded has been attacked once (29% so no shield) in the last 6 hours. Very odd.
Sputnikv8
Footballguy
Yep. Same here. This will be a big penalty. And as was said above, if you are waiting until the end for a planned finale, you could get locked out. And there is no timer, so, unless your track it....you won't know.
Very anti-clanwar of them.
Pretty sure you can cancel the be off six minutes, cancel the village guard, be off six minutes, cancel the village guard, be off six minutes and then be good for another three-hour session. That's 18 total minutes off every three hours.

If you have been raiding for three hours, they think you deserve to lose loot.
That's all I can come up with.

I dunno. The threads at the sc forum don't make it seem that easy. I don't know and rarely play that much in a row, but, if its a cumulative timer, it can impact me during war easily. I like to get a shield during attack day and watch war activity. Also with no timer visible, how do you know if you are "allowed" to boost? Boost barracks, whoops...break time for you.

i get that keeping the game runnign to be "online" all the time is technically cheating, but let's not call this modding please.

Yea but seriously, #### that. What business model drives away it's constituents and then penalizes them for not garnering some arbitrary shield?
Dumbest ####### thing I've ever seen, makes no sense.
culdeus
Footballguy
But the latter part is not antimod. Not being able to carry enough loot to attract a shield is not a reason to freeze people out.
Black Box

They want to force everyone to have to expose their base for a defense.
But if people are not getting defenses and unable to get back on, it seems like they will have to tweak that.
ETA: They should definitely show the online timer as a countdown or something.

Ok, thats a serious flaw. All the crap said here about why we should uninstall, this one seems legit. That said, I assume they will repatch this part.
Cliff Clavin

If you want a shield that bad and have no loot, put your TH out. Cost some trophies but if you're in gold/silver, who cares?

Day 1 went good for me in terms of gaining more than I lost. But not being able to time my 12 hour shield will hurt. Plus, now ill get attacked as I sleep. If I don't get shielded, I'll sleep through village guard
Really think they should give you an option for auto reset traps. Shouldn't be too hard

That won't work. And it's exactly what they are trying to stop. Did you not read the warning they give when you get frozen? They specifically say that if you are some kind of jerk that leave their TH out still go #### yourself.

I would be pissed if I was a legitimate player and getting locked out.

Th11 need primarily elixer. To get it need to barch and use lightweight armies. That doesnt fly in high levels.
This is one of the wierder things. The warden needs elixer only.
Also the loot in silver is insane. Honestly, I think it dries up everywhere in a few days. Especially elixer.
With the huge cuts in league bonus and no th snipes its just simply more efficient to hammer weak bases with gibarch.
AcerFC
Footballguy
Um, no. Every base I have come across at 3341 has more than enough elix. I am max in elix right now and dont see that changing in the two weeks it will take for th11 to build. I have to say that so far I am happy with how I have done. I havent lost anywhere near what I could have or thought I would have while being able to take down some monsters. The only issue for me is losing my night 12 hour shield knowing I could collect full collectors. Last night wasnt so bad.
I also will never be able to attack 3 times in my shield. I wont boost and spells just take too long to cook.

And nice to see that people can still mod in wars. Meta clans are safe.

I agree but its gonna take a lot for this to keep up. Many people are stuffing for th11.
Won't really be able to evaluate for a couple weeks when everyone that went th11 gets there

You all still start at like 6pm? I suggest pushing back to like 1 or 2pm. This puts you in China's bedtime. Not to be racist but its pretty well known they just don't give a ####. The Muslims you get tend to play clean.
