In the old regime, team members would all get the Roman Numeral award on their personal page if they were on one of the top 5 teams. Currently the trophy appears only on the team page. Any possibility of extending that to also appear on each member's page?

I fixed the Great Race III stage that still required TvT. If anyone who is at that point in the game could quickly verify that everything works as intended, it would be great. It's the "Tug of War" event in the sports festival. That stage should use 50/50 now.

I finished the race instead of waiting for the fix, but I still want to say thanks for listening. I'm sure it works fine now!

Hi all
Have noticed that occasionally, 4 or 5 times over the last 2 months, that scores for Word Wizard were
not included in the team score. Yesterday, my score for Heroes wasn't included. I am not asking for it to be changed, just thought it was worth looking into.
Kind regards
Nicott

To make it a more even field for other teams other than the elite of League A, would it be possible to create a Premier League with the top 8 - 10 teams and reallocate the places in the other leagues?

The bottom two of Premier League get relegated and replaced by the top two teams of League A.
The rest remain as they are now.

I think that makes perfect sense, and without doubt would greatly enhance the enjoyment of many in my team "The Scrambled Eggheads". We were initially placed in League C from where we made good progress into League B and then into League A.

However, since then we have been regularly relegated and then promoted between Leagues A and B, and it is again likely we'll return to League B again at the end of May. It's become a monthly ritual.

Forming an elite league consisting of the teams who are really serious about competition might be the way forward?

I absolutely hate this idea. It would never end. Once you get rid of the elite teams now, there will be other teams that beat you on a regular basis. Will you want to get rid of them too. Where does it end?

I'm with DireWolf on this. Leave the system as it is. There will always be some teams that get relegated each month, no matter how the league lines are drawn. If a team regularly "bounces" up and down between leagues from month to month, that is unfortunate, but drawing different lines just puts other teams in that position. The "bounce" problem will always be possible because if you can have promotions, you must also have relegations, and some teams may eventually settle out in a "borderline" position. Reminds me of baseball players that were called "AAAA". They were very good AAA players that, each September when the rosters were expanded, got promoted to the majors for awhile, but always found themselves back in AAA again at the start of the next season.

Agreed. It ain't broke.

Great idea, gme24

The brilliant top champs could be escorted to a FT Valhalla Hall of Fame in a blaze of glory - like Wesley did for the Ascension Quest completion - there to reside permanently, having sacrificed their grey cells on the battlefields of endeavour, while the rest of us battle on far below, cutting and thrusting in our little horned helmets.

Maybe there they could then fight one another for one coveted top place only every month in that impressive category.

TvT is a great challenge and has quite re-ignited my enjoyment of the hourly games AND it came at the right time too. We're still stuck in social isolation here and it's driving me nuts. TvT lightens the ennui. If not for FT altogether, I don't know what I'd do.

League C seems to be playing new questions game twice :


"
For June we are using 6 games for the 33 team sapphire league.
Team Heroes Daily Game New Qn Game New Qn Game Easy Hourly Pot of Gold
"

Yes, I was also coming to report that. I'm in a League C team and only five games have the Team v Team icon on the home page.

Fixed.

How difficult is it to have "Mind Melt" and "Word Wizard" be mutually exclusive?

I don't agree that they should be. I'm in seventh heaven when they are together.

We had a three-way tie for 13th place this month in the A league. While it wasn't a major deal relatively speaking, I can imagine a time when it'll cause a team to change leagues. Can you add a tie-breaker so that it's not (apparently?) TvT placement? There are a lot of simple statistics you can take into account, like which team has the best median score, etc.

Three teams had the same end of month score - 113. Only one lucky team placed 13th. That team also has three black cats on the team's info page. The other teams placed 14th and 15th. I'm not sure what you mean by "TvT placement" because I'm accustomed to TvT meaning the now defunct Team vs. Team game. The final placements were determined by how the three ranked in the Team Heroes game at the end of the month.

Yesterday I was not credited for playing Fill in the Blank for my team. I don't know how many other Cats may not have had their scores counted. This is when I played and how I scored:

Hi Mirajane,

I asked the same thing last month on another thread. Try this link, look for my question and 1nn1's response.

https://www.funtrivia.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/1256179

With that information, I never look at the results until about noon UK time when they are usually showing yesterday's scores instead of the day before's.

I noticed the same thing this morning - which sort of depressed me, because it involved some games where I got really good scores ! Thank you so much for posting the link to the previous discussion. It isn't noon in the UK yet, so it's probably a matter of waiting a bit longer before panicking.

Dang. I knew this. First the scoring page was blank. Then scores showed up. I never considered it went from blank to old scores. I'll go back to waiting until sunrise to check scores.

Is there a time when you don't get really good scores LadyNym? :-)

Thank 1nn1 and others for the explanation, I knew I couldn't explain it eloquently so didn't try!

July games selection in League A appears to be the same as June. Is this one of those things that doesn't automatically change and needs to be manually switched?

See Wes' note: https://www.funtrivia.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/1268327

Good news: Wesley came up with a schedule of games for division A which changes every month, and keeps things fresh. I have added it to the scheduler so each month it will now follow the schedule. Hopefully the monthly tvt game selection woes are now behind us.
