Revenge.

PS, I wouldn't leave my th out if I knew I could revenge whoever attacked me, like was intended in the game.

Remind me to only zap people that attack me first

This would encurrage revenge attacks in the game. Because right now, i dont even bother with revenge as i never know when i can attack even...

Great Idea!

Actually it's pretty useful. I managed to join a guys clan on my revenge list,tell him to get off, and steal 500 dark Elixer with 3 spells and gain 10 trophys. And even Got to share this with him

Only problem with that idea, is that it pre-supposes people don't break shield... In crystal and above, you get sniped so fast, that breaking shield isn't an issue, so the countdown would be next to useless (imo)

TBH I dont really care much about revenge, as you say it is useless so I never bother.

Definitely makes them regret zapping your storage, even though they'll probably continue anyway.
For all I can say, zappers will be zappers.

I actually do the 39% thing a lot (though not when revenging because I never use revenge). My policy is simple, if you design your base in such a way that it is difficult for me to get even 40%, then I will take what resources I can and leave you with 39% or less. A well designed base is one in which 40% is easy (or the town hall is exposed), but 50% is hard. There are certainly times when bases fool me and I get 44% and then realize I am in trouble, but when I see I am in trouble at 30% that means I am going to cut my losses and give them no shield.

My last attack was for 100% of the DE and 36% total. If they had more buildings on the outside I would have gotten 50% and given them a shield, but since I new I couldn't get to 50% I stopped before 40%.

We all play this game together. If you are going to deny me a league bonus, I am going to deny you a shield. Trophies don't mean much so there is little reason to design your base in such a way that people can't even get a league bonus from you. That's why my town hall lives in the corner. I try to do my part.

The thing is, we don't want to encourage revenge attacks because they are bad for the game. People tend to be willing to use more expensive armies when revenging (which destroys unnecessary elixir) and they get no league bonus (which creates less loot). The main reason I don't revenge is because it doesn't pay as well as looking for bases through nexting. The less revenge people use, the more loot is available in the economy.

I wouldn't actually suggest they remove revenge (because it could cause some ill will), but the less it is used the better.

All I want is the revenge button is ONLY available if that person is available for revenge (offline and doesn't have shield)

It make revenge much easier. Yes, I agree that the majority of the time, the button still won't be available, but it's better than you have to click on each and everyone to find out.

This.

I also enjoy zapping anyone who goes TH sniping with a full DE storage.

You'd think people would realize that putting yourself on 40-50 revenge lists with a storage full of DE is a bad idea, but common sense ain't common.
