I'd like to point out this is part of the reason why only limiting it to 3-4 servers is not always a good idea.

Some servers have all their strongest on one group and others for the sake of competition have them balanced more or less. But when the merger shows up it boils down to 2-3 competitive with 3 negligible groups for the GNW.

If one merges a total of 9-12 groups one will see a slew of groups and 6-9 competitive groups and so GNW would never be dull. Yes it may require you to quit your group because your group isn't strong enough to be competitive if that is actually what you are looking to do. (To compete in the GNW and have a chance)


Coming from a merged server I believe the approach was correct but the scale was not large enough.
