This creates some logistical issues, but there’s also the potential for waiting until the counter counts down to start your Banquet with your new ally (assuming AQ payouts creates this issue, of course). However…
…why do players have to worry about this at all? Resolution should have been forthcoming last week.

Banquet doesn't start until Dec. 20, but needing to be in the Alliance you want to be part of needs to happen by Dec. 6/7 area, which again, goes to delayed rewards are going to hurt players with hard decisions. Especially since we have war season rewards coming out by hopefully midweek of this week...(not holding my breath based on the past week's hiccups).
So why does it take so ling.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but unfortunately the team has hit a snag in the process of getting these rewards out and the timeline has been updated to target Wednesday this week. Apologies from the game team and the community team alike.
There are a lot of theories in this thread about what's taking so long and why it should be "so simple" so I wanted to shed some light onto the situation.
It is not as simple as copy+paste as some have suggested. One team has to run data queries to gather all of the placements of players from the previous season to set a "map" of who is getting what ranking of rewards. I don't know the exact intricacies of this process, but it does involve a lot more manual work than you would expect.
After we have this map, the new rewards need to be attached to it, another manual process with margin for error. Time is taken to make sure there are not errors in the process, which unfortunately lengthens the wait. To the best of my knowledge, the snag in the timeline this time around has come in updating the rewards from the previous season to Season 10's reward scale, yet another manual process impacting thousands of players.
After all of this is finished, there's yet another process of setting the rewards live in the game and distributing them to all accounts.
If you've seen our previous post discussing the tools used to manage banning modders, this might seem familiar. It is many more steps than meets the eye and our systems do not automate the process. It is something that is being worked on and we're hoping to grow better equipped as time goes on.
So what’s your plan now for people who are sitting on max glory?. Cause you are now dumping 2 weeks worth of glory on us at once
How is this hard?
