Once the winning conditions are met crowns are handed out. How will the conditions be met is out of my hands. Unfortunately, on this world it happens to be by the runner up tribe disbanding.
All members of the winning tribe received 200 crowns each, however we appreciate individual work as well. Being in top 3 of the world in either of the two categories requires time and dedication, therefore we award it and I honestly do not see a problem that 2 players are not part of the winning tribe.
I also stated the reasons why we will keep the world open in the meantime, however that does not change the fact that it will indeed be closed once en15 is launched.
As you can imagine there is a lot of feedback regarding world closing (I am not talking only about forum related feedback) and we can't fulfill everyone's wishes, we try our best to make everyone as happy as we can and that is a hard task.
I hope you guys understand.
