As its procedure. Once the mistakes had been made, the only choice was Rollback with Fleet Recall (24hours no ticks could be argued though).

The reason for this, is that it gives an unfair advantage to people with fleets not recalled.. I.e. anyone eta 4 or lower will still land uneffected but anyone eta 5 or higher cannot, as galaxys have 24hours to organise defence (thus giving an unfair advantage). Thats the reason why the fleet recall rule was implemented (I.E. Its aimed at screwing everyone over, not just late launchers).

To take your scenario.. Your eta 4 when it rollsback.. You get to top50 and your galaxy mate gets to #1 spot. The people who launched one tick later than you (eta 5) have no recall, as the galaxy can organise defence on every wave (as 100% will be online during the 24hour period). Is that fair? that some get to land and some dont?

Note: Im not explaining this to just you but to the PA Team. As they dont understand it either.. As they often roll the ticks back to a point where early launches get to land but late launchers dont, which makes the fleet recall redundent.
