    What is the point of the "Unable to find villages to attack" message?

    Hi. This is not another thread complaining about how broken Titan league game play is. There are plenty of those already!

    I'm just genuinely curious why those of us staring at clouds (I'm currently at 4650-ish) get the message "Unable to find a village to attack!" every 5 minutes, forcing us to hit the retry button if we want to continue searching? If I didn't want to keep searching, I would just hit the return home button, close the game or throw my iPad at the wall in frustration! The game should just keep searching until it finds a base, however long that takes, right?

    I can't think of a good reason to have this message in the game, unless SC are trying to catch out people that don't notice the message in time, are too slow hitting the retry button, get timed out and so they become someone else's whale?

    Yes, this just happened to me...

    That's a good question, but I guess you are answering it already. They want to make sure people have to remain active in order to find a raid.

    There is a general automatic timeout in the game after 5 minutes of inactivity.

    This is just making sure it still happens if you are searching taht long. I'm not at all sure it is right that it does that, but that is why it happens.

    That sucks cause everytime you go back to your village it resets the build timers on your barracks and spell factories and the heal timer on your heroes.

    If you boasted it's wasting that time
