Beyond frustrated with PVP battle glitches

I am well beyond being frustrated with the glitches in PVP battles. I think I was the last person on the US servers that was still interested in the PVP time rankings. But I just spent about an hour trying to work around a battle that kept repeating while taking a marble colony. The colony should have taken 20-22 minutes. It was pure luck that I was able to get through 5 large colonies without an issue in August. I understand why everyone else has completely given up trying to break onto the world rankings for average times. Are the servers for other countries experiencing the same issues?? I am sad. I will now go sit in my corner and learn some Deutsch.

From what I have seen the majority of the bugs have been tied to a specific map on a specific tier. I guess I mean map a has this bug, map b has this one... Best you can do is send a ticket and help them get it all worked out.

Wonder what would happen if we all did expeditions again and all send support a mail saying we are going to start one and they are to be on standby for the inevitable bug that's bound to happen :)
