We reminded our members manually a dozen times through several in-game and external ways and still only 20 got ready in time to set up a defense team.
So I’m all in for more prominent ways. Otherwise just remove Guild Wars completely and send out the rewards at weekly reset anyway …
Correct me if I get this wrong but with the old GW I thought you could set your defenses for the week any time prior to the day in question? So if you forget to do so Monday, that’s only one day out of six that you missed.
But with the new GW, if you forget to set a defense team then that’s it for the entire GW. This prep time really needs to be expanded.
even better, towards the end of the old GW, the defenses “tried” to remember the last defense set so even if you are gone for the first half of the week, you might still have something set. Might not actually have been the right defense sometimes, but it was better than nothing.
You have 1 day to realize that you are on a GW week and 2 more days to push a couple of buttons)
