Are the other (alleged) loaders going to be banned as well? Or only some, cause they got caught? Also, will Kong be making a statement regarding the speculation that said banned accounts can be bought back by the perpetrators?

Why are drunk cards the reward?

Because that's the next BGE. I know most of us were expecting a music card, but I'd rather have drunk.

Why?
I'd rather get another 4 Skore so I can quad it. Right now, a fused Skore is usable with the BGE buff but unless I quad it, it's just going to sit in inventory once Music goes away.

We know drunk is the next BGE. But it has always been a current BGE reward card during rumble. In the case of 2 BGEs at one time, it's the newer one, but obviously drunk doesn't start until next week. 4 Skore should have been the reward.

To quad/fuse it.
Otherwise, like I said in my previous post, it just sits in inventory when the BGE buff expires.

because I only have one of those, so I'm not quadding it anyway, and I have lots of quad music already.

fail on having a drunk card as reward. the new drunk combos are weak anyway.

So how is my guild playing the same team that we played in our first rumble match (that we lost to) for our 6th match (that we lost to again)??? How is that matchmaking?

Can we please have an answer to why drunk cards are the rewards for a musical bge?
This breaks with tradition that we always get rumble rewards for current bge.

Next BGE begins in 3 days. Wouldn't rather have something to prepare for that than something that only useful another week or so

Rematch prevention is every 4 matches.
And like usual, my feedback is that Kong needs to tweak the MMR formula to take into account margin of victory/loss. We lost two matches this Rumble by ~500 points and in both instances, our MMR dropped by ~4000 points. Not much fun for the guild that we crushed next by almost 14,000 points. If the goal is for more competitive Rumble matches, please adjust the drop so it takes into account the margin of victory/loss. If there is concern about point targeting, just add some randomness to the MMR formula.

I would rather have a second 4 Score to fuse with. Also, music isn't over for another 2+ weeks after the rumble ends. So instead of getting something to make several really good music combos with, we will be getting something to make bad new drunk combos with. Boo-urns.

It's because people will now have to buy the music card to fuse it and thus it makes more profit that way! Good business decision. People would not even delay purchases now since they know the reward isn't the music card!
They should change the policy to: "The reward would be the one that makes the company the most money"

Beside the fact that the card in question is not available to be bought right now, I have never felt the desire to buy more copies of a card that was offered as a rumble prize, especially at the end of a BGE.
