===== ALLIANCE GIFT GIVING =======
1) Cool 2) Issues with Current System 3) Suggestion/Request for Possible Future Changes to System
------------------------------------------------------------------
While the Alliance Gift Giving is Cool, I gave my Allies a medium gift and so far they've received: Small Wolf Lure, Some type of Defense Boost, , etc..
HOWEVER, it would be nice if the person that bought the Crowns & Gave their Alliance Allies the Gifts, may be got one themselves?
ALSO, I think that MANY individuals/Gamers might be (TOTALLY) opposed to the current system, which basically notifies a person's Allies whenever they spend money in game. Which is NOT necessarily something everyone wishes to have BLASTED to strangers, even if they are in game contacts...Just Sayin' and while I do not mind too much, since the entire reason for my purchase was to make a gift to my allies, it would be nice to have the option in the Future of keeping my future purchases PRIVATE...
As an improvement to this system, how about:
1) The Giver gets to schedule delivery? For Example, I didn't need the crowns, I had 400+ to begin with, but I bought a package of crowns in order to "Gift" my Allies with a 1st World War Celebration Present, as we are participating in our 1st World War tomorrow! *Woot-Woor!* <=Our terrifying War Cry! *laughs* My point is, it would be GREAT, if the Giver had the choice of "when" to schedule delivery, as certain dates might have special meaning depending on Alliance type/Geographic location & local celebrations (ex: different cultures celebrate different holidays per cultural beliefs, etc.
EVEN BETTER THAN AS AN ATTACHMENT to Crown Purchase(s), HOW ABOUT AS STAND ALONE GIFT ITEM
PACKAGE PURCHASES?
For Example: Meh, I don't care about the crowns, as I mentioned previously; however, I wished to "gift" items to my Alliance Allies, so it would be GREAT, if I/we could purchase either specific "gifts" (boosts/equipment far more advanced than their lvls, and/or special armies/extras) for our allies either individually (as incentives or awards) and/or if you sold "Gift Block Packages", even if they were undisclosed "surprises" determined by the system. For Example, if We had the option of purchasing Item Gift Blocks for $20 = 1 Gift Per Each Alliance Ally However many that is (and/or) say Gifts sold in Blocks of 10 for X amount of $.
Then have the 10 (or however many) Items showed up in Inventory next to a Present Icon that showed the number available. And under
the Alliance Gate=Alliance=Pop-Up Sub-Menu which lists All Alliance Member Names, Rank, Last Log-in, Level, etc. AND at the TOP, where the catagories are listed, the Present Icon were shown...Then, when the Giver wished to Distribute the gifts to their Allies, they could click the Present Icon and Everyone would get a gift of whatever the system sent (and/or) if done INDIVIDUALLY, in the Same Sub-Menu where "Visit, Promote, Demote, Kick" shows up, Have the "Gift" option button show up & when clicked, a "Gift" is distributed to that individual, which then shows up in their inventory list with a note from whom they received it. And at the Top of the Alliance Menu, the Present Icon with Number would show the total remaining gifts available to distribute.
======= WINTERY GIFTS =============
I am uncertain if it is just me, but I am online at all hours of the day and night; however, I have only seen maybe 8 or 10 MAX 'Wintery Gifts' show up in my Town Center Layout. Typically, when you have done "Air Drops" I have seen them regularly through out the event. However, this time, I have gone days without seeing any 'wintery gifts' show up. Again, I am uncertain if this is intentional and the gift delivery is so sporadic that I juat haven't gotten that many gifts, or if there is a system issue an whatever regularly scheduled 'wintery gifts' I should be getting delivered, just aren't being delivered properly. So, I guess this is just an fyi?¿?

======= PEACE TREATIES ============
I have contacted Support about this, but as I've reached my rather high limit of "Fed Up" with it, I will mention here too....
COULD YOU PLEASE REVAMP THE PEACE TREATY SYSTEM/Process to give Players AT LEAST a 5 MINUTE WINDOW BEFORE ALLOW THE SYSTEM TO SICK ATTACKERS ON PLAYERS??
or BETTER YET! Maybe REMOVE whatever it is that makes USING/HAVING a Peace Treaty End RESULT IN A PLAYER GETTING IMMEDIATELY ATTACKED UPON THAT PEACE TREATY ENDING! It's kind of RIDICULOUS!! That a System option intended to keep a Player from BEING ATTACKED, Literally is what RESULTS IN THAT PLAYER GETTING ATTACKED!! *rolls eyes*..and when I say "Immediately", I mean immediately! I hung out online today in game waiting for my peace treaty to end, as I was planning an attack. I logged off to comment on this forum. And when I got the Peace Treaty End notice, I attempted to log in. However, although I immediately attempted to log back in, the IMMEDIATE of the system sicking an Attacker on me resulted in my logging into (within 1-2 minutes of getting my PT end notice) a having been attacked already!!
===== NOTICES & I KNOW YA MISS ME, BUT..=====
Also, I am getting notices from the system that make NO SENSE!! For example, today, after I logged out, I IMMEDIATELY (aka instantly) receive a "Your Troops await Your Command" notice. REALLY?? I'm literally gone from the game less than ONE MINUTE!, they can't miss me THAT MUCH!! Thia is not the only time that I have received a notification message from the game immediately after having logged off, which was along the line of 'come back' or 'needs attention' to draw a player who has been away from the game, back into the game;however, I am pretty certain that it was NOT intend as a reminder notice for a player who has logged off only one minute PRIOR to receipt of the notice!
THANKS FOR YOUR EFFORTS & YOUR TIME!!
