We just finished an impossible war, so this bad matchmaking algorythm is back again !! So time to report it.

We are a small group ~1000 world listing, the German group is listed no 185 ! (16500 points vs. 19500).

They have 1 SA (289), 4 AA and some GA.
We only have 1 CWA (242), 1 AA and 4 GA. Completely unmatched. They reached max score of 75 points of course, so this was impossible to win from the first minute.

We lost 98 xp points, there was NO FUN in playing the war, and we did some boycotting to avoid spending more on this impossible war.

NO FUN guys, so FIX that damn matchmaking algo again !!

They really need to increase the allowed search times. The match parameters widens with time, but seemingly widen too fast (or eventually widen too far).

Or to put it another way, would we rather wait 2 days for a fair war or wait 2 hours for an unfair one? I'd rather wait 2 days. Granted it won't take that long but the point is to allow longer waiting times.

Are there workarounds? I guess we can sit and manually restart war searches every 10 minutes... but that's no fun :)

Fact is, no two alliances are the same, and there aren't a zillion alliances simultaneously searching for war. We'd probably be surprised just how few alliances search at a given time....
