The Unite Cup event is being forced upon us.

What I consider is Nordeus should never implement a feature in which we depend on the association fellows to proceed.

I have been telling them the Phase 1 rewards are a mockery small beer for two hours, yet they are still playing it stubbornly. lol

exactly ! we had this event last season and at the end everyone had the 405pts. nobody gained anything except 6 days of lost time ! weekends are enough for assos.

The Unite Cup event is being forced on us. If associations don't participate they are left for dead in the division and very likely they'll face relegation.
It is wrong that the event awards points. Last season we participated because we had to despite how crap the prizes were. No choice ! And at the end of the event the entire TOP 30 had all achieved the maximum 405 points and i thought "hmm what a waste of time, nobody gained any advantage at all as they'd all achieved the 405pts available. You are simply FORCED to participate by nordeus or else you risk getting relegated.
It is wrong awarding points. Not everybody can play a 6 day event (every 4 hours). Associations are a weekend game and alot of people joined assos for that one and only reason.

SCRAP THE POINTS !

Create an event by all means where people are under no pressure to join. Not a 6 day event that leaves those (who can't play) FOR DEAD !

I hate this event as well. Every association I have been in fights over activity or lack of it making the game less enjoyable. The last association I was in was worse, we were asked to spend tokens on it.

And you are right, there was no improvement in ranking as everyone completes it. Basically the ones who benefit are the more socially active players who are able to form good associations.

Totally agreed mate

I am in a Platinum association now. We fought our way up, nuts and bolts, warts and all. Events, hard fights, one-sided fights, we had it all.

So I think I'm qualified to make an objective opinion on this --

I think United Cup event further sieve out the fluffs from the pearls. I think the main advantage I see is it will lessen the ability of associations who pumps in lots of real cash money but are lazy.

your comment is totally irrelevent to the subject. whether it does "this or does "that, the event is forced upon us. nothing to do with fluffs or pearls. it is affecting everyone !
they should re-name the event : PLAY OR WATCH YOUR ASSOCIATION GET RELEGATED !
The divison points need scrapping. By all means keep the event but only with prizes. People who enjoy associations at weekends are being bullied by Nordeus into taking part ! it is disgraceful.

PS we all fought our way up. Doesn't give you a diploma pal !

My previous associations had big spenders who had high quality, are lazy and were willing to spend. I think they were lazy as they seldom attended matches, overall quality 150 plus with whites only around 180. Probably used personal trainer alot. We ended up finishing event in 2 days. I agree that lazy poor teams wont make it but lazy players who pump in real cash and are willing to spend have no issues

Interesting discussion there guys.

Just on a side-note @minamino; it would be awesome if you didn't verbally attack those that disagree with your opinion or at least reply back with that tone. Everyone is here to share their views and engage with each other in a meaningful and respectful way.

Cheers
