Ready Up Option For Prep

I believe many players would welcome a ready up option provided to Leaders or Co Leaders on preparation day to speed up wars. Of course once a clan is ready they can click ready up to signify their clan is ready to begin the war; once both sides are ready preparation day ends and battle day begins. There would also be an option to unready if the leader/coleader decides to back out and wait for the original duration of preparation day.

I know why preparation day is so long to help alleviate time zone differences between clans, but some warring clans are from the same time zones on occasions or even time zones close enough to end the preparation day early once clans have planned, and filled war castles without detriment to either side.

Any feedback is appreciated as long as it's constructive.

Anyone got any thoughts on this one?

Yes, one requirement or they could not do it is that they need to keep the total war cycle at 48 hours. So any time taken off prep day has to get added to war day.

Also, what happens if the first clan hits the button and waits. And waits. And waits. And then finally everyone goes to bed. Then a couple hours later the second clan hits the button and now the war starts at a time the first clan was not expecting and they aren't/cant be around.

And also my thoughts on self bumping can get me banned so I will hold those back.

If you read the post in its entirety that situation is answered.

This change would make all war win stats meaningless, as some clans would start finishing wars every 25 hours, whereas others would have to keep waiting 48 hours between wars.

Only some of it is answered, and only sort of. Plus JohnnyBGoode has raised another good point that also should be answered. So you have a few things to work out there.

I don't think I would go as far as meaningless, and 25 hours is very doubtful and extreme timetable. How often do you really think two clans will scout, plan, and donate in a hour? I'm hoping this trims off 12 hours give or take a few not 23. I do agree the top clans wouldn't like it at all because it could skew a win count as far as a race of top clans, but the community as a whole probably doesn't care. I think anyways.

Describe to me what is still unclear on an option to unready up to you.

25 hours is actually likely unless you are adding the time to the war window so that it remains a 48 hour war cycle. And also if you do keep it a 48 hour war cycle that answers the stats problem which you are mistaken that the community doesn't care about.

Oh i read it and outlined that scenario. You were the one that failed to read it in the first place. I'm not gonna mess with you anymore the vote is 5-1 and you are probably the one. I think everyone else sees what I mean by an unready up option to avoid a war start. And no two clans readying up in an hour is very unlikely unless its a small clan war.

Go troll on with your idle hands somewhere else you aren't going to get a rise out of me.
