Thanks to the OP and everyone for all the really useful information. I'm on day four or five or something with a soon-to-be TH4 and I kind of squandered my first three days. Though I somehow won against the first person who tried to attack me. Still not sure how that worked out.

UGievArchers: Thanks for accepting me (IGN: witko) even though I am basically useless to you at this juncture.

Hey UGievArchers, we can still win this war if our big guys get on and take their last attacks. We're only five stars down, the enemy is out of attacks, and we have several left. Make up for lovely people like me who couldn't even get one star!

edit: poo poo, I guess they did have attacks left. I thought I looked at all of them. :( Still, only four down now!

I love this game. It's pretty slow going for a casual nublet like myself, but I don't mind. My main account is TH8 and I think I've been playing for around 10 months. Hmm, that's actually a scary amount of time.

The walls don't bother me either - once you've upgraded everything else, the only use for elixir is making big armies, which are pretty good for getting gold. Already at TH7 you get dragons which are lots of fun once you no longer need to worry about elixir.

Blumpkin has actually been cool as hell since he joined UGievArchers. Maybe we have that affect on people, or maybe there were extenuating circumstances in the other clan he was in (I have no clue, I only saw the thread drama) but he's been A-OK in my co-leader book.

I read a few reports in here of people having issues restoring their accounts on new devices/after a re-install and having just gone through it, I can't recommend linking your device to Google+ enough. Brand new phone, fresh install of CoC, and the only thing you have to do is run through the tutorial (which was an adorable little burst of nostalgia for how simple the game starts out) and then link your device. It took less than two minutes, tutorial speed run included.

Cbear posted:

Did you do that without linking to another device first?

I'm thinking of buying a tablet just as a backup.

Basically, I linked my account on my old phone, summarily murdered my old phone so that it only functioned as an After Dark screensaver, and when I bought my replacement phone, I just downloaded the app and then signed in to Google+ and my account was restored. You don't need another device, just link your poo poo before something bad happens.

I am on Android, so Google accounts are a heavy portion of what I use to log in to various apps, but is there no option to download the Google+ app on an iPhone? As long as you have the G+ app, you should be able to use it to link applications.

edit: I have no idea how iPhones work. But the more I hear about their limitations, the happier I am about having an Android.

You gave no troops at all this season and you had an insultingly bad base layout. Someone literally said "It's like he blacked out mid build." I didn't kick you but I'm not upset that it happened.

Send a help request to supercell with all the details you have, but you're probably SOL. If anyone wants to write up a paragraph about linking your base to google play or gamecenter I can put it in the OP. I don't personally know much about it other than "you probably should do it"

There's really not much to it that requires a tutorial.

Click gears icon > Google+ Sign-In > Click "disconnected" > Enter your G+ credentials. If you ever have to re-install, you're basically hosed if you don't.

That said, Blumpkin you were a pretty big asset to our clan and we'd like to keep you around. I don't know if you ever did any IAPs but if you can provide receipts for those, as well as "Blumpkin SA", TH9, 668 trophies (at the time of writing this), then maybe you can get some help from them.

What's the point of the disconnect step?

It just displays as "disconnected" until you actually connect the accounts. Once you go through the steps, it displays as "Connected".

Furthermore, if you already have your G+ or Facebook accounts configured on your phone/tablet, simply clicking "disconnected" will pop up a brief window that does the whole thing for you, and then you're done. It's a two-click process in that scenario.

Is this really a viabe strategy?

It worked for him. He can probably be more descriptive but basically he dropped cups until he got down well below any rankings, and scoped for people his TH level to raid for untold riches. He'd also wait for them to come attack him, scope their base, and then go revenge on them for all of their loot. It seemed to work well and it was funny watching him do it.

I'll try and get back in asap. If anything my base is still on top and set up for the same bait strat that seems to have been working the past few wars. If you really need the space I understand and you can boot me.

You didn't get included when the game set up the war this time. I don't know what that bodes for you restoring your account, but I'm a little worried for you. It's like the game already decided you're just not there.

For the record, we considered kicking you, but I thought it might be better to keep you in the clan for now (since UGievArchers has plenty of room) in case it helps your account get restored.

I think it varies from clan to clan and depends also on the circumstance. UGiev has a lot of L3 donations, and it's basically expected, but we're on average a lower-leveled clan. During war time, it's understood that people will be specific in their requests for certain levels and types.

I'd definitely like to get into one of the goon clans since I am now playing this regularly again. I would like to do it with one of the clans that does some semi-organized clan war stuff. Does this apply to you guys?

We are pretty active in Clan Wars, for sure. I don't think we're at the ultra-high level of other goon clans that hit start war as soon as the last one ends, but we're aces with war/regular donations and helpful to new folks looking for advice.

And apparently my pet peeve is TH7+ sniping the lowest level opponents before our lower TH folks have a chance so, uh, don't do that.
