Does this look like any semblance of balance to you

The consensus atm sure does seem to be that W3 sucks everywhere. Only the bottom 3 brackets aren’t looking at 100k+ blowouts. They just have 50k blowouts, lol.
Free transfers need to stop.

Not stop. But made to be 1 per Char.
Or make it so anyone that does World Trans. can’t join WvW till the following week. Unless brought back to the original home world.
Otherwise. If Yaks got there kitten together (And GoM) they’d be able to do something.
I’m honestly open to some kind of treaty or alliance between Yak’s Bend and Gates of Madness. I’m not a commander, but I think unite-and-conquer might be the way to go here. But even then, with both servers so savagely demoralized…
if I see this situation exactly the same at the end of the week, you can bet hell will be raised on these forums. And not just by me.
So maybe now is a good time to try out the reason ANet pitted 3 servers together? If it works, then I’ll love it. Otherwise, I don’t see what the point of playing that mode is.

Still not a solution. What’s to stop 40% of the servers W3 pop from moving to which ever server won the last round at the begining of the week every week (which is pretty much what happens right now with no limitations)?
I get that the guesting service is broken but lets be honest, I’ve met maybe 1 person on an overflow that I’ve actually been compelled to group with after the fact and that was in the beta. Also, I haven’t actually PVEed on an overflow outside the first week or so post-launch (because no one is clustered up in PVE zones anymore and because overflow play doesn’t count toward guild influence on your server so why bother).
So who cares if guesting is broken? I wouldn’t be using it if it worked anyway and neither would most other people.
Free transfers were supposed to be a stopgap until guesting got less broken but all it’s done is assure that right now the bulk of the community (myself included) feels no specific attachment toward any one server or another because the entire system is so fluid. It’s a failure in design and the problem will not self correct.
I actually want to transfer right now because w3 on my server is functionally dead and will be into the foreseeable future but there’s no where to go where this won’t be a problem.

Needs to be 1v1v1v1.
They really are going to need to merge servers and then boost the number of people that are allowed to queue for each W3 map. The servers are imbalanced in every tier.
Even tier 1 looks almost like the picture in the OP. It’s silly and sad.

The best example of 3v3 large scale pvp I’ve seen to date was RFOnline, a Korean grindfest with a brilliant soundtrack and some outstanding concept and art direction. What made it work is that ad hoc alliances were formed to keep one faction from getting too much ground too long (and it worked for a pretty long time too), but this was made much easier in that the three factions represented were very visually distinct and leveling took so bloody long that when you had a competative level character of one faction or the other you were invested in that factions success.
ANet has some really good ideas here but when the community and their affiliations are in a constant state of migration and when one red name looks so much like any other red name.. challenges are presented.
SoR can have their points. My guild spend 40+ pieces of siege yesterday on retaking EB. We went to puzzle to replace it and it was camped by SoR.
Time for PvE leveling alts and doing dungeons.
Good luck next week.
Just another Yak.
