lets take a minute and we can have a nice, long, slow, sarcastic round of applause for the grepolis players council. which has been an absolute train wreck from the start.
lets start at the top...
1. GREAT JOB INNO. after making your big announcement your followup has been...lets be nice and say "underwhelming." the lack of clear direction on how the voting process would go, was followed up with a poorly made poll, designed to favor those listed at the top, with others not even being visible without scrolling. that would be a lesser problem, if there was any kind of guidance given to the council. but over a month in, they still dont have any idea of communication from inno with whats going on.
2. OUR WONDERFUL COMMUNITY MANAGERS. Putting forward the kind of effort, and keen responses, we have come to expect from them. While being able to track through every meaningless post on the externals to make sure no 12 year olds virgin eyes get corrupted by a semi naughty word, they were somehow unable to realize that one of the applicants doesnt speak english, and not once, but twice, simply copy/pasted applications from other candidates. He was not only included on the ballot, but given a premium location. BRAVO! This sterling performance has been followed up by the council members regularly waiting 3+ days to get a response when a question or problem has arisen.
3. US. THE COMMUNITY. Probably the most disappointing of all the poor performances. for years, i have heard nothing but complaints and ideas to improve the game. on every external page. in every skye room. in every alliance forum. and after years of wishing, we got a real chance to get some input. how did we respond? by having more trolls apply than real candidates. followed closely by everyone...as voters, simply clicking the first 5 names on the poll in voting. how do i know you did this? BECAUSE THE NON ENGLISH SPEAKING TROLL WHO USED A COPY PASTED APPLICATION WAS A TOP VOTE GETTER. you have no right to ever complain, when this is the amount of effort and responsibility you can give to try to promote change. in fact we should all be ashamed.
4. THE 5 GLORIOUS COUNCIL MEMBERS REPRESENTING US. - this is not shocking, considering how they finally got into place...but still equally disappointing. for over a month now, THE ONLY INSTRUCTION FROM INNO, is for them to vote on an inner council member. simple enough right? no. not for these savants its not. firstly bear goes missing and completely without contact through the voting process. leaving the other 4 in a dead lock of emotional butthurt and bad feelings from previous servers. they are all more concerned with personal agendas and screwing each other out of the position than they are actually performing the positional duties.
so the next time your wondering whats happening to this game. just remember the tale of the players council. and how good ideas and be soiled in under a month. this game is falling to crap because of each and every one of us. not money hungry devs. lets all be proud.
