Revenge Shields, new feature idea.

Hello every one,

I recently had this new idea for revenges. It just happened to me that I got attacked by somebody, scouted his base and saw the base was loaded with resources. I saw she was still online, so I waited for about 5 minutes, she was still online, 30 seconds later I checked again and she had an active shield :rolleyes: . I know she got attacked because the TH was destroyed. I got really mad because I just missed it by 30 seconds. so I thought of a new cool idea that could be implemented.

When you try to revenge somebody and they had an active shield or the owner is online, you wold get a pop-up that would say "This village currently has an active shield/owner is online, would you like to revenge shield the base?" then you would be able to choose "yes"or "no".

If you choose yes, the village wouldn't be able to be attacked after the shield is lost or owner disconnects until you revenge the base or after 2 hours of "revenge shield", so that if you forgot to attack the base, other people would be able to raid it. However, you can only reserve a base every week to avoid this feature to be exploited and really make revenges more of a thrill.

If multiple people people want to revenge the same base, you would get in a queue, so when you want to revenge shield them, you would get a message on top of your screen that says "you have been added to the revenge queue", after the first person attacks them, they get 40 or 90%, they will get their 12/16 hour shield, after the shield is up, the next person's revenge shield will start, and so on. However, there will only be a maximum of 3 persons in the revenge queue at a time to avoid having to wait too long to revenge some one. if there are 3 persons on the queue, you would get a red message on to of the screen saying "There are too many people on the revenge queue".

When you chose to revenge shield a village, when the owner of the village disconnects, the shield runs out or you are next in the queue, the 2 hour timer for the revenge shield would start to run. If you are online when this happens, you would get a pop-up that says "[name]'s revenge shield has started" and a big red button that says REVENGE! (like in Liam Neeson's commercial) and a smaller orange button below it that says "not now". If you are offline when this happens, you will get a notification saying "[name]'s revenge shield has started".

If you reserved the base let's say 30 min. ago and the owner wanted to log in to his village, he would be able to do so, when he logs in, the reservation time would pause and continue where it left off after the the owner logged off. so, if he logged in at 30 min after you "revenge shielded" the base, played for 40 min and logged off, the timer would resume with 1h 30 min of "revenge shield" remaining.

When you revenge shield a base, the owner would get a notification saying "Your village has been revenge shielded by [name]".
Also when you revenge shield someone and there is 15 minutes left of revenge shield, you would get a notification saying "Revenge shield on [name] is about to run out" so that you wont forget to attack them.
When the village you have on revenge sheild

Let me know what you think of this idea! :D

Sounds abusable if two people super carefully match up, like with Jorge Yao's accounts (not accusing him of anything just an example) where he cheap shielded according to an interview, attacking himself for the shield. Then you could revenge shield that guy or gal and give him or her an indefinitely long shield.

I thought sc changed the way revenge works so this exact thing couldn't happen... Why would they change it back? Sure revenge is broken, but that would make is 'brokener'.

Just ignore the revenge feature. They will eventually take it out. It's just taking awhile cause some people are attached to it for whatever reason. Then people will complain to bring the broken feature back. (Like elixir for th8 walls).

But they made a commercial about it! It'll just be their little pet hook, no matter how useless.

Clash of Clans likes to throw a curveball, you got unlucky with the thirty seconds. But this would be so easily abusable.

This could be exploited, and it just seems like people with huge loot would be a lot more unavailable, making it harder to find a decent base.
