And please no vault weekend during battlecrashers

Hi everyone,

First up, if we can’t all be civil to one another I’m going to have to keep the thread permanently locked. I’m sorry to the people who’ve been having a normal civil discussion about the Vault weekend and battle crashers if it comes to that.

Secondly, I just want to make an official statement that the Gnome spawn isn’t affected by Battlecrashers. Gnomes take priority. If a Gnome is meant to spawn in a battle, a Battlecrasher will not.

Lastly, I wasn’t planning to admit my bed time last night but I was up until 4am playing Gems of War last night for fun and to maximise on the pet rescue time during the event. We do play our own game. In addition, when we test things we don’t just play it for 10 minutes, QA spend much longer on it than that and we have a PC we can dedicate to running non-stop battles and tracking data to test a far higher sample rate than a small group of devs could. We rely not only on tests by humans in internal and external QA but that data from that test machine too.

The Gnome spawn rate this weekend has been completely normal as expected for a Vault weekend.

For a game you hate so much you sure spend a lot of time playing it.

Just want to add my final results:
418 games, 46 gnomes = 11% gnome rate
Plus 95 battle crashers for 47.5k gold :money_mouth_face:

Previous vault event:
1082 games, 105 gnomes = 9.7% gnome rate

Seems about the same to me. I can understand how it might feel though, there were streaks where it seemed there’s no gnomes around (20+ battles of no gnome or just BC) and there were streaks of gnomes (1 arena run had 3 gnomes in 5 battles!).
