    Another week, another dirge!

    Its Groundhog Day!

    There was I, hoping Supercells 10 diamond offering signaled recognition that task drop rates and task variety have been screwed for a couple of weeks, and that this weeks derby would be better. What was I thinking? ....I really should have known better

    Nothing has changed, we are still trashing hundreds of sub 300 tasks, struggling to find 320’s at all. No town tasks, all boats and baskets when they do show up, little variety!

    This week we have the least number opted in for a regular derby that we’ve had in years, simply because people can’t be bothered with a boring struggle with the miserly drop rates and awful task variety, and struggling to complete the derby. A challenge is fine, but this is something we do to relax and enhance our normal lives, even if we are competitive souls it needs to be enjoyable too.

    I know of hoods dying, leaders quitting the unequal struggle against the game and keeping their hoodies happy, frankly the derby is dying .... is this really why you want Supercell? Or is this all part of the plan to wind the game down??

    I agree. In a hood of 24 we have 16 opted in. So far 8 have not managed to get a task. All we seem to do is trash only to receive more low point tasks. It's about time SC sorted out the bugs (& there are plenty of them) and created some different tasks.

    I’m not sure this will be fixed Fifio, increasingly I believe the derby is being made this way deliberately. Either to try and make people spend diamonds, or to start driving the game into the dirt.

    Well if it is deliberate then it is just driving players off the game more.

    It has been incredibly boring this year with a tiny amount of any new stuff.
    Derby was one of the few things that kept me going. Otherwise just repeats and totally boring.

    Hope next patch will bring something interesting as it is now it's better to play something else.

    Here is the issue, the bigger teams struggle the most because we don't get any more tasks on the board than smaller teams.

    This week we have "empty boards" a lot because we have 25 opted in members. Many of our team like to get there tasks done early in the week, making it even more challenging.

    Your only option in a big group is pay to speed up the board or wait until later to choose your task.

    I think we all would like better 320 drop rates, but I think supercell is doing this for a reason. And that is the top teams are paying the money to speed the boards. Hopefully they throw in some mystery and blossom derbies so teams that don't pay that money can be competitive!

    I tell my team, unless you want to pay the big bucks, let's just focus on casual playing. We have stayed in Champions League for years playing this way.

    If you don't want casual playing then spend the money.......All online games are going to this way of playing.

    We were lucky we had a great start in the derby, mostly boats and baskets with eight farms opted in

    320 baskets have dried up and minimal other 320 tasks.

    We now have a board of four 320 boats and nothing else. We keep deleting all 230-299 tasks

    End of Wednesday 3 players opted in trashed 543 so far. I can imagine what the neighbourhoods with more players are going through

    I play Solo, it’s not a barrel of laughs either right now.

    I don’t understand, it’s either raining 320 Tasks (Power Derby) or they’re as rare as Hen’s teeth (now).

    I think the Derby, in its current format, has had its day. It needs replacing with something else or a MASSIVE overhaul. But we need a BINGO Derby (or two) to get that Achievement first. As soon as that’s done, I’ll rethink my game.
