So the latest announcement in a string of hiccups from Kabam results in the following
This aw from matchups today will be cancelled and points won or lost will be clawed back AT THE END OF THE SEASON
So let me get this straight, if we win, we raise our score, and then we face a harder opponent and lose
At the end of the season, the win and points from winning get removed, so it counts as 2 losses? Make this make sense please

The best way to do it is to reward no points this week.
Right now say we are on 10 points
Say we win and get 5 points, we are then on 15 points, say we face another alliance on 15 points and lose, ok we are back to 10 points, but wait, our points we won get clawed back, so now we are on 5 points even though we won 1 and lost 1 because we then faced a harder alliance
In a perfect world, there would be a "reset the Contest to right before War started" button we could press... and this would delete any points gained since the start of this War, freeze every Alliance's War Rating, and return the exact amount of items & units consumed during the War period - and then start the War from scratch tomorrow.
Unfortunately, the Stark Foundation hasn't given us that button yet, and it could not be implemented overnight, so we have to work with what we have here.
As of now, the plan is for the points gained by both Alliances to be zeroed out either after this war or after this season. Anyone who entered the War before it was canceled will be receiving a Compensation package (still TBD).
I've brought the concerns about War Rating to the team and requested that we try to find a way to freeze it before this War ends, but that's where these tech limitations may come into play - this has historically been a messy thing to do... we're absolutely going to try to, but please keep in mind that it just might not be possible at this time.
It's way after hours, and this will all be figured out tomorrow, and once it is I'll be following up with what's going to happen, but in the meantime, I wanted to hop on to provide a bit of clarity.
Regardless, I'll be sure to bring this up tomorrow as well!
As in shut down the current running war, like you have done on some AQ days before?
That would probably be best, that way there are no points or +/- to worry about, and no “we got moved up and faced some way stronger alliance for the next war so would be a certain loss” complaints.
