An Open Letter to SE: The win trading on Triple Triad Tournament must stop.

I concur with the OP. Made a few posts about this already. Id personally love to see it get cancelled and restarted. That way the people who cheesed it and bought wins will have ended up spending it for nothing, and will also have to learn to actually play TT. Its a broken system and needs to be postponed until its something that isnt exploitable

A japanese community manager said that the system will be reworked next week with all the players suggestions, but no message about a possibility to cancel the current tournament.

Randomly matching people does sound like a smart way to go about it; have a match start every five minutes, and pair people up from a pool of those seeking tournament matches. Be sure to disable any ability for the involved players to chat with one another while in-game. Win traders will still have the ability to throw the match - but it will be much harder to work out an agreement beforehand.

To be honest, I was never much invested in Triple Triad in the first place so I don't really have a pony in this race. But seeing how the tournament was handled... Oy vey.

Hey... don't be mean. I'm 11th and I did not cheat

Then I'm not referring to you. Good on you.

the bad idea was to put card as reward for the tournament anyway....

I really wanted Lightning this week, so I'm a bit sad, but yeah that's a good news.

I'm not 100% sure it will be next week (he said it but that's SE so...), but asap, I guess.

Lightning is A917.

On the Japanese forums there has been dev posts saying they are looking at feedback and changes will be made, which is good.

Until then however, I think all the tournament rewards should be removed, except for the 1,000 participation reward.
