I could not sleep, so I logged in here and then went the arena for a few quick flights at 0020 Eastern.
The late war arenas were 140/100 Orange and 98/150 blue. Why at such a late hour and with less than 250 players wanting to fly late war are we still being forced into two arenas? I was curious as to when the arena balance would shift, so I kept trying trying.... 130/100, 97/150... 120/100, 95/150... 110/100, 92/150.... then finally 98/100, 95/150. 45 minutes for this transition.
I do not get the forced balance when early and mid war were capable of up to 350 each but had only 5 and 12 players respectively. Two WW1 with 6/100 and 0/100, AvA 1/200, Dueling 40/200, and 0/650 0/650 special event arenas. The hint I would take away from this is that customer wants do not match HTC desires. Players want to fly late war and HTC resources might need balancing, not the players.
