After looking into the reports of inactive teams/team members receiving titles, we have found an error in the character transfer process that was not removing these teams from eligibility. During the next regularly scheduled maintenance we will be correcting team data and adjusting titles as well as rewarding drakes to anyone whose title has been properly corrected to Gladiator.

This is in addition to removing the additional achievement titles that were given in error.

So if I actually earned Rival title at 80 during S5 do I get to keep the achievement?(I understand I am losing the title b/c I didn't earn it this season).

You should not lose the Achievement.

My friend got gladiator when S6 ended, then transferred, is it likely that he's going to lose the title?(he was in gladiator range, his team was active etc, he just thought it was safe for him to xfer after he got it.)

So this error only relates to inactive teams whose members transferred? Not to all inactive teams, whose members just rerolled?

^I'm pretty sure there were no errors inactive teams, just on those who transferred.

Also Neth, was this the only issue discovered? The gladiator cutoff algorithm which was used is very accurate on the EU realms, but not on the US realms.

Is this issue being solved to the EU realms as well? If it is, then there might be more than just transferred inactive teams. Sorry if this seems to long, I want to help solve this once and for all.

Ya I agree, the error seems quite high. Something like 20-25% less glad teams than what was estimated on our bg. Also, i had one more question... When people from our bg transferred, sometimes armory updated by eliminating their team and sometimes their team remained on armory with nobody on it. Was that the error? I mean, was the error the teams that remained? or all xferred teams. That latter may account for the % error that we have all noticed.

Are you guys also going to recalculate the teams that the PR wasn't within 100 of the TR as inactive? Since that's what usually happens and I don't think it did this "Gladiator" calculation.

Nethaera-

Is there any way you could explain this a little bit more.

At what point would the people have had to xfer for the error to happen. For example I know one of the inactives on my battlegroup originally had people that xfered at the end of the season but they didnt xfer directly from that team

ie they left the team, making it inactive and then xfered near the end of the season.

Also, is there any possibility of further errors with inactive outside of the transfer problem.

Q u o t e:


It's teams where they transfered but did not disband the team before the transfer. Also neth, I really believe that the math used on it was wrong altogether.

18878 (a team which tanked 20 games in game rank)x.005=94.39 We were rank 94 that tuesday after then end of season 6 tied with another team. Both of us got duelist. So please check the math as well.


EXACT same story as me dude.

Used the same method for the marker team, it was ranked 7833 meaning 39.xx teams should get it, I was 39.

I've sent word along and will return if I get additional information for you. This all may very well be tied in to the correction that will go in with the next regularly scheduled maintenance. I'll do what I can to let you know if that's the case or not and we'll continue keeping an eye out for any other discrepancy claims.


Please make another push, send Kalgan another email --- please get some senior level action on this.

First off, much appreciated neth. I didn't think this actually going to be fixed, thank you for taking the time to help correct this.

One thing I am unsure of though, did you see if the inactive teams with no one within PR range were counted the first time around? I understand that the teams with no one on them are going to be fixed, but it doesn't seem like the other inactive teams that actually did exist were counted out either. Or was this just caused by people who transfered to a different battlegroup, and got gladiator there from their team on their original battlegroup?
