Regarding Championship Warfare

I like it. It needs a few tweaks though because there ARE a few issues that need addressing.
First and foremost, the concurrent time with Guild Wars causes display glitches and forces refreshes.
Being assigned a bye in a knockout round is a bit more common than not. Yes, a refresh fixes it, but that then adds to the server load.
Secondly, trying to get bets in again causes more odd displays and forces refreshes. Raise your hand if the march button stays away once in a while.
Times mentioned are Pac because that's my time zone and the servers I play are west coast.

A solution for the first problem could be to move it back 1 hour. 8 pm instead of 7 pm. If it overlaps NL we are already out of GW.
Or 7:30 pm. Most GW's are over by then anyway.
As for the second, I believe I have a reasonable solution for that as well. "Let it Ride."
Allow us to place a wager that covers the whole fight. Then we won't have to exit GW, click the CW icon to wager, close it and re-enter GW.

Thoughts?

On my server, CW is always at the same time as the Noble Lady. It's quite stressful if you want to do both events. I'd like to sit down and just watch and enjoy the fights, but I can't. Got to bet quick, watch the %, run for the lady, claim, bet, run back to spot, watch the %, run for the lady, etc. I don't enjoy this time. They should keep the CW at current time but move other events that conflict with it. I wouldn't mind if they moved the NL before or after CW on my server. Would it be too much to ask the developpers to move conflicting events case by case per server time?

Difficulty is that US CWF occurs in 3 different time zones with a maximal of 4 hours of difference. Hard to avoid all events across all 3 time zones without pushing it past midnight for East Coast. To do it earlier in the day would also conflict with a lot of people's schedules and will conflict with Baal for at least one time zone.

What about "Let it Ride" for betting?

This is a great idea. Instead of clicking "bet gem" you click let it ride after the first bet made .. and it keeps making the same bet for the same amount for you until you un-check it.
