Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 4]

[Pickles]

Uhm. Has anyone gone to battle yet?

...Apparently Awakened was randomly replaced with the Order...?

I went to battle and got told that the bystanders were in danger and it's like I never signed up for anything at all.

It is hanging up on the "loading" screen for me.

CW, that stinks that the Awakened got switched out on you.

I battled, but it's buggy. I kept getting the message "Sorry, you won nothing" -- but it wasn't true. So check your inventory before you go to the Obelisk battles and make sure you won all 15 prizes. The other BD glitch is that at least once in every single battle, it says "sorry, had trouble processing, send again." If you refresh, you'll go back to the main BD page, and won't have any active challenges. But the battle will still count. (You'll just have to navigate through to your opponent again.) The other option after getting the error message is to change a weapon selection and hit the "battle" button again. Usually, you'll get the "battle over" pop-up on the first try (sometimes it takes multiple tries), and you can battle the same opponent more quickly. There's a ton of lag in the BD, but I managed to get 11 battles in yesterday.

ETA: Sway wins. I forgot to pick my boon until after dailies, so I don't know if they're actually working (I chose bank bribery), though it looks it.

[Pickles]

*headdesk* I loaded my dailies specifically thinking about how I needed to check if we'd won first, and still collected bank interest before selecting the boon. I REALLY need to get better about that - that's twice in the last 3 times we've won that I've done that!

Last I checked, stocks are not working, so the stock boon may not be the best option this week...depending on when they get it fixed.

ETA: This week is Thieves, Brute Squad, or Awakened. Meh. Definitely not Brute Squad. I'm up for either of the others, though!

[Siniri]

I've got to leave soon. Since CW still needs Awakened and they (usually) have decent boons, I went ahead and joined them. Hopefully we can get CW that theme this time (and they don't go poof again!).

[Pickles]

Here's hoping they don't poof! Maybe this time there will be cake? HAH.

[Blue]

Yah. Awakened it is.

[Chivewarrior]

I managed to join up-- now let's see if it works.

Excellent! A complete bandwagon

I have already begun battling, but haven't yet hit my goal of wins...

[Chivewarrior]

I have been having trouble making the Battledome work.

Weird, the "quick reply" box was gone from this thread.

Anyway, I was able to get 27 battles in last night before bed, but the BD got worse as I went along. Instead of taking 2-3 minutes per battle to load and having to select (or deselect) weapons once to make the battle actually submit, I started having to select/deselect 10-20 times before a battle would send. After two battles of that, I gave up for the night. I'll try to squeeze battles in here and there as I'm doing other things on my computer (to make it less frustrating)... Actually, I should be battling while I'm doing my dailies, now that I think about it!

Hope everyone else is at least able to get 10 (or whatever the minimum) in (and as much more as possible so we can make sure Awakened wins).

That is weird. I'll need to look at that today.

Battledome has been super laggy and still isn't reporting prizes.

Minimum is 20

[Chivewarrior]

I've gotten four so far, because it's been so laggy and dropping and difficult. Getting to twenty is going to be a nightmare.

[Blue]

No kidding. The Battledome lag is insane today.

Plus every turn says, "Sorry, there was an error sending/receiving data. Please try again.". But, waiting for a few moments, it clears itself and processes the turn.
