**WINTER OF WOE - BONUS OBJECTIVE POINT**
As previously announced, the team will be distributing an additional point toward milestones to anyone who completed the Absorbing Man fight in the first step of the Winter of Woe.
This point will be distributed at a later time as it requires the team to pull and analyze data.
The timeline has not been set, but work has started.
There is currently an issue where some Alliances are are unable to find a match in Alliance Wars, or are receiving Byes without getting the benefits of the Win. We will be adjusting the Season Points of the Alliances that are affected within the coming weeks, and will be working to compensate them for their missed Per War rewards as well.

Additionally, we are working to address an issue where new Members of an Alliance are unable to place Defenders for the next War after joining. We are working to address this, but it will require a future update.

AW Points deduction

Our alliance has lost 300 points for an unknown reason without any explanation? Is there any reason for this or is it a bug. I don't think anyone has been piloting to my knowledge but an explanation would be great thank you

    Might want to check in your alliances, my bet is there are people logging in for each other, maybe to cover while on vacation and not necessarily to fight in AW for them, but that doesn't matter, you will lose the points no matter what.

    Check your alliance for account sharring/ Pilioting, hacking and modding because a deduction of points is the penalty for that.

    Some are a bit harder for us to figure out because they won't tell us anything ( like account sharring and piloting) but for hacking and modding.

    You would have talk to your alliance, check their champions, their titles, to see if they took the hardest paths with multiple nodes up with low champions or ones who couldn't do it in aq and aw to at least get the general idea of who it could be.

    There's a lot of stuff going around right now, especially tool generators on Facebook and other stuff, some people seem to think they can't get caught but they didn't eventually.

    Anyway that's the only ways for your alliances war rating to be docked especially by that much.

    "no reason" then the ally wouldn't have lost points...so it was for a reason sorry but someone was piloting modding or hacking in your ally.

    Ive just post something similar. 300 point deduction on matchmaking. Why is so many alliances being affected if its sharing. Many do actually share. But far to much of coincidence so many have same issue at the same time.

    Makes me laugh as the finger always gets pointed at the alliance yet we have a company with multiple issues through game on a daily basis. All that been forgotten about that at this point in time yes? Or is just when you guys are affected you point the finger at kabam?

    This post hasn’t been deleted yet? They never discuss bans or penalties in the forums. Or Ever based upon the community feedback. Only a matter of time til this thread disappears too.

    If you are in a situation where you’re using multiple accounts, you need to be the originator of all those accounts. You can get hit with the penalty for using purchased or inherited accounts.

    And to the mod that eventually closes this, aside from the typical response about privacy.. maybe include what you would do if you were the leader of an alliance in this situation?

    Or give the leader the option of removing the offending account, instead of having to play a guessing game

    They do love the guessing game.

    We also lost war points and can’t think of a good reason. Can someone explain this. If a player goes on holiday abroad and logs in to play the game, will that count as account sharing as they will be in a different part of the world, if that is the case do we all have to inform the games team when, where and how long we are going to be away.

    Or a different phone, if theirs happens to be on fire.....

    In my opionion, I believe the mid tier alliances are getting hit for 3rd party software violations while the higher tiers are for piloting.

    Not impacted but to help identify these people, a * should be added to the beginning of their name that stays even if they change it. Helps leaders decide if they want to risk it or not. Otherwise they will need to figure it out without much to go on other than guess work.

    Sadly there is no way of knowing if someone is breaking the tos, as we don’t know what the games team decide on we don’t know what the player is doing. We are in a Vicious circle.
