I don't think this was revision and revoking...

...I think it's another bug...

...which speaks to PGI's ability to check their own work, and we are all well aware of their track record of such so far...

So before someone else wants to scream at me via private message about how they think the game works and why Clans deserve to die, I'm simply pointing out its existence, not trying to propagate some kind of conspiracy theory.

As a member of the unit whose tags were above Tharkad (R79T), I call shenanigans on PGI's silent attempt to erase the clan victory.

I agree - but I don't think the map, season, leaderboards, or quite frankly who wins really matters much anymore...

House Steiner representatives made a deal with House Marik to buy up all our Space Bacon to feed it to Jade Falcon occupying Tharkad.
The Falcons couldn't control their appetite and ate it all up making them gain so much weight that they couldn't move to their Mech cockpits in time so all their Mechs got destroyed and Steiner liberated Tharkad.


Replicating the christmas miracle of George Washington, apparently.

You didn't win anything. The win conditions as published during the actual event? Didn't win those. Total number of matches played? Didn't win there, either. There isn't any rational way you can claim you won Tharkad.

Can't we say the same thing about Luthien?

Also, no win conditions were ever published about Tharkad.

Having read the article again, specifically the stats one, I retract my statement. Either way, Clan Victory here is BS, IS victory on Luthien is BS too.

Of course we can. I claim Tharkad on the moral high ground of I barely shot my friends in the back at all!

I can claim all sorts of things.

Did PGI declare the an I.S. "win" after Luthien?
No? Then it's not the same thing.

The I.S. did not "win" Luthien

Luthien was a tie.

The I.S. was not handed an (undeserved) "win" after the fact.

If the I.S. was handed a "win" after the fact on Luthien i would have a bright shiny new mauler sitting in my mechlab.

After Tharkad PGI were all communicative about the "error" (being ToW bar) and said it would be fixed before next event. "I own my mistakes" was the term used.

Luthien event comes along and we are promised that it'll work... However, as we predicted, it still doesn't work but in a totally different way.

This time though PGI have gone to ground & have said nothing for what, 3 weeks now. Just a delayed stats posting and a subtle planet reassignment.

Poor form indeed.

This is why I'm caring less and less and less about Faction Warfare, the map, and leaderboards...

Christ, MRBC and NetBattleTech did better jobs than PGI.

Yeah the map in itself is rather uninteresting and I hardly ever vote for anything. The game mechanics in itself is a little bit more interesting then QP IF you can get 2 good premades to face off.
