    Clash of Clans Newsletter - Edition 3

    The Clash of Clans Newsletter
    Edition 3 - Have you missed the last edition? Go check it out here - Go to Edition 2 ->
    This edition’s headline: Report from the Mods from their trip to Helsinki


    Mods Report From Helsinki
    Recently, Daddy has made a thread discussing and reporting what went on in Helsinki. The mods met all three game teams and forumers were given a quick insight about the game Smashland. Though that wasn't all, as Daddy told us that there was going to be a huge 'Game Changer' this year for Clash. Also to note was that the Support team has improved for Clash, and ideas and changes were brought up to the devs for all three games.


    Optional Update
    Yesterday (25th of August) saw Supercell release an optional update to the game. This update was to change the speed of troop/sell responsiveness in battle. Supercell urge all users that still have these issues report it to them thus it'll be fixed.


    Clash Trivia
    How well do you know Clash of Clans? In your head work out these answers and tell us how well you did! The answers are provided at the end of this edition.


    1. How many THs were there at the start of the game?


    2. What Month and Year did Supercell release Clash of Clans to the App Store?


    3. What do Villagers do to obstacles?


    4. How much housing space does a Wizard take up?


    5. How many Dark Troops are currently in the game?


    Top Suggestions of this edition
    The Clash of Clans News Team will post two suggestions that stood out the most on the forums during that period in every edition. These ideas are heavily supported by the community and deserve to be recognized here.


    No Troops Selected while nexting in PvP
    The first idea of this news edition will talk about a forum request for SuperCell to remove the automatic selection of the first troop when going into battle in the PvP. It happened to almost every player that they misclicked and deployed a troop instead of clicking on the Next button, so this idea comes in help to stop this from happening.


    With this addition, when going into battle, no troops will be selected so in case of a misclick, the game won’t deploy any troops because none are selected, thus fixing the issue of accidentally starting a fight.


    23 Hours of Preparation Day
    The second idea presented in this news edition will not suggest any new feature in the game, but it will ask for a change into the duration of the Preparation Day from the Clan Wars.


    This suggestion was created by a forumer, ClasherTimothy123, to suggest a decrease of the duration of the Preparation Day from the Clan Wars, from the current settings of 24 hours to 23 hours. This suggestion wants to prevent clans from constantly delaying their war time. The amount of time taken to find an opponent delays the wars every day, that clans end up taking a day of break to reset their starting war hour. This suggestion would give an additional of one hour to balance the time taken to find an opponent, and possibly keeping the wars at a constant hour.

    No PM reminder? .

    This is good mate, keep it up!

    One suggestion is that the headings and the paragraphs should be spaced farther away from each other, the text of the headings overlaps the text in the paragraphs.

    INVICTUS FAMILY
    Kings | Lords | Beasts | Nobles | Fire
    Stats: Toothless | TH9 | Co-leader | Level 114 | 530mil+ GG | 566mil+ EE | 675+ W.Stars | 22/250 Lavas

    Thanks for the newsletter. I never stopped to read about 23 hr war, but this summary explained it very well and it makes perfect sense. So this will certainly serve to highlight some great ideas that would otherwise be missed. Much appreciated.


    Thanks TerM!

    Got kinda worried snooks might be gf, but seems there's no gf in the set-up so she is absolutely confirmed.

    Nope no PM reminder; was rushing to get it released and I haven't got the time today to spend 20 minutes making a PM to every 5 people on the subscription list.

    Yep, headings will be fixed for next edition as well.

    Will do.


    Also would like to say that hyper linking hasn't been done as well as this, schools starting for me soon so new editions will hopefully still continue, but may be moved to every 2 weeks or delayed.

    Nice work and a good read!

    I liked that your editor's pick of suggestions were uncontroversial ones that everyone can get behind.

    Only one typo that I saw ("sell" instead of "spell").

    Another interesting bit of "Daddy news" buried in a thread this month was that changes to clan description are now logged so SC can target just the offender in the case of inappropriate messages (not the whole clan leadership as was previously the case).

    Looking forward to the next edition.

    I actually like the fonts - a bit crazily spaced but gives it personality.
