Fix The Revenge System
This commercial where Liam Neeson takes Revenge:

is a lie. Supercell seems to be a great company but I've never seen them outright misrepresent their product in advertising just to get a few more players.
The big lie is, of course, that you can actually take revenge on someone. Should you actually tap the revenge button you will see either "cannot attack, village owner is online" or "cannot attack, village has active shield."
The last time I got revenge was during the Superbowl--for the non-Americans reading it's like our own little World Cup. Since I was watching TV it was a rare opportunity to have my phone out and have CoC running. I kept trying for revenge. Watch some plays, eat some food, tap some screen. This went on for forty five minutes, because I know if I don't get him JUUUUUUST as he signs off, someone else will attack. Then the reason I can't get him changes from "online" to "active shield," which is a 12 or 16 hour problem. Like I said, due to the first Sunday in February pretty much being a national TV holiday in the US, I had the time. I will not have the time until probably the next Superbowl.
Right now Revenge is a vestigial organ, the appendix of Clash of Clans. Perhaps in the olden days it was thought to have a use but it doesn't really do anything today--or at least the odds of it doing something are very, very low. Is revenge part of the game? Are players supposed to think twice about who they raid?
So how to fix Revenge? I'm sure there's a darn good reason for villages not being bothered while the owner is online, but maybe Revenge ignores shields? hmmmmmm, That won't work. You have to attack a LOT of bases for that wall gold, so now your shield might as well not be there at all.
Can you at least give us a shield countdown? So when I log in I can see Raidy McRaiderson will not be behind his precious shield in 6 hours and 47 minutes. Maybe he'll break the shield and attack someone else (I'd see that), maybe I'll be asleep and can't do it anyway. It'd just be nice to be able to plan.

Probably the best thread about this idea that I've seen. Not unbalanced, great idea

Nope, there's nothing wrong with the revenge and the commercial.
Liam Nesson could be:
1. Watching a replay of an attack and revenge it (assuming that it has no shield or the player is offline)
2. Watching a LIVE replay attacker logs out right after Liam's speech. Then, Liam attacks.
And DUH! Everybody should know that it's a commercial. Commercials always uses visual presentation rather tnan actual representation.
About the thing you said that revenge isn't a thing anymore:
Still nope, if you're ♥♥♥♥♥♥ as Liam Nesson, you still have the oppurtunity to revenge attack that player, as long as it won't go off the defense log. I revenge attack anytime without problems. It's either I attack right after they log off or for several hours, hoping they're not online or not bearing a shield.

revenge attacks should ignore shields, otherwise its just another raid without the league bonus, that way it really is revenge, i mean why call it that if nobody ever wants to use it, if the town gets beat during the shield they can get extra shield as a result, i have pages and pages of revenge that are never available, and now i dont even check
or at the very least have a higher trophy penalty for losing a revenge raid, 100 trophys or something, at least make it count for something.
by that i mean the attacker would take 100 of your trophys if he wins

So you want people to revenge attack you while you have shields up? :smirk:
