The Seafarer’s Rest
Lonely souls never to leave
The cold, crushing depths

Winner! see you guys in 25!

For this week first haiku following the rules below with your world name will be where we play today! We’re playing in 30 min so get those haiku written.

• There are only three lines, totaling 17 syllables.
• The first line is 5 syllables.
• The second line is 7 syllables.
• The third line is 5 syllables like the first.

If we played on your world in the last month we will pick the next “first”

Hey guys,

I’m really sorry this fix took so long but there were a lot of factors at work here. I think we’ve finally got bug fix and it should be live for everyone. If you are still having trouble please let us know.

First reply with full world name and gif of cat(s), we play on your world

Cos cat memes can tell you exactly what is wrong with WvW!

Disgusted by this post, you are just showing how much you care about WvW, ie very little! its more of a joke to you!

We play on a different server every week most of the time we use a random number generator to pick the world this week we thought we’d have some fun and make a post about it. We did not intend to give the impression that we don’t care. Just the opposite was we wanted to start giving more exposure to our play on live sessions. The cat gif idea was just a way to make the post a little more fun instead of “first person to post world name.”

Our play on live sessions are both a time for the team to have a bit of fun in WvW with you guys as well as a time to hear feedback from different people throughout the game. We play in both NA and EU worlds so we can get as large a perspective as possible. We do this in addition to reading the forums and reddit posts so we can hear the voices of people who do not post on the forums.

Did not originally have cat gif and then provided cat was not a gif. To Many tries

Unfortunately we cannot give you all the details. It’s as simple as that. I’m not trying to be mean but there are details of the game and the studio we cannot share with players. Though… If you are really passionate about this problem we’re always looking for good people to join the team https://www.arena.net/#careers.

I’d like to start off by saying the WvW team works hard to keep up with forums and also reddit. Your feed back and discussion is awesome and we love reading what you guys have to say. The unfortunate reality is we cannot reply to every post and so it may seem as though we aren’t reading things.

I’ve stated in a previous thread that deleting worlds and letting players choose a new world is something we have considered in many forms. At this time we do not have a solution that we feel solves enough of the issues with population balance while also hitting enough of our requirements for a change to be made.

As I said above we love the discussions and suggestions you guys have for WvW this particular problem is tricky as you guys don’t have all the details we are working from. A lot of the ideas we’ve seen have been well thought out and detailed they fall short because you guys are working from a limited perspective and not solving the whole issue.

Deleting worlds and redistributing players is something that has been considered and discussed. In the way described it is not an option that we feel works to solve the complex issue of world population balance. There are many factors involved many that are not immediately obvious without the data we have access to.

­­­­­­­­­way to go!

I was tagged up on TC, and we ran into that Anet zerg at the SE tower on the alpine BL. It was like…. seeing Bigfoot, Elvis, Tupac and Jim Morrison riding the Loch Ness monster. I’ll admit, I may have chased you guys down a little farther than I would have chased other groups, but I was in a state of shock. I didn’t think about a screenshot until 10 minutes afterwards. It was a good sight to see, though, and I hope it happens a lot more often.

There is a group of us that try and play WvW once a week for a bit so keep an eye out We try to do different worlds each time and I’m not sure the minionmancers will make a return next time. I guess we’ll see.

Are any of you confident enough to solo-roam? I wanna bump into one of you and annihilate you. In the spirit of sportsmanship, of course.

I solo roam some times but I tend to not have my tag up as I wont get 1v1s I’ll get 1v50s. A good way to pull the zerg to another map I suppose…

Rofl. Wish you guys would play more on EU Servers though. Barely ever see you around!

We actually do play on EU servers quite often so keep an eye out for us.

1 up 1 down will return once the bug fix makes it to live.

Hey sorry for the delay. Outnumbered is applied at the start of the tick. This means you’ll only gain or lose it at the start of the tick. So if you are on a map is Outnumbered at the start of the tick you’ll get Outnumbered pips for that tick provided you don’t change maps.

Hey Bunter,

We made a change to the way Outnumbered works that should help this feel a lot less bad. Outnumbered is now applied each scoring tick (every 5 minutes). Swapping to a map right before a tick will no longer grant an Outnumbered pip bonus. Instead, you must play on an Outnumbered map for an entire tick to earn the bonus.
