My palace is a level 36 and it's been several days now that I've been waiting. I already have the pioneer 8 award and I waited until the JoT event started and went to location x255;y825 in Jot and set in that location for five or six seconds  I then moved to location x5;y5 so I could shield my castle before I got hit. If I did something wrong please tell me because I can't figure out why I haven't recieved the award.

    What do I need to do or where can I go and check to see what if anything I did wrong?  I got all of my info from the vikingshelp website and they have given me the correct info on all of my other achievements that I've went after and recieved.  I got all of my info for the pioneer achievement award for levels one thru eight and they have been correct so I figured the level 9 would also be right! My understanding in the past is that I only needed to set on a location for three seconds. This time I went when the event first started and got on location.I sit there for at least three seconds and then went to the top of the screen and pulled down the location thing and typed in the location x5;y5 and hit enter.  Now I'm certainly not fast on the keyboard!! I'm a 72 year old man who has to use the hunt and peck on the keyboard!! Any advice on what I can do?

Try Support I guess. 

You are certainly right about support,I went to them and told them that I hadn't recieved my pioneer 9 award and went thought all the steps that I went through,They told me that if I'd followed the correct steps that I would have recieved my level 9 reward!  But when I wrote back and asked them what steps I needed to take so I could correct myself ,they refused to tell me!!!  It's like they make them up as they go!!! 

Sorry but I don't even know what a macro is!!!!!

   Well you know me,because I talked several times with you before I contacted support! You couldn't help me and support wouldn't help me. I was mad because they told me that the enjoyment I got from searching for the answers was as much fun as playing the game! After working the mid-night shift in a machine shop for 40 to 56 hours a week I REALLY enjoy looking for some BS that they could have told me in less than a minute!!!I want to play the game to relax and sit back and rest,not search the internet for answers on how to play their game!!! Besides if I knew how to cheat as your buddy impleyed I wouldn't be asking you or support on how to do something in this game! Please forgive me for venting my feelings at you!!!

hi everyone

Hello Everyone:

    I'm still trying to get the pioneer 9 award!!!  I'm unable to figure out what I'm doing wrong!! I'lll start at the beginning and tell you what I did,step by step.  As soon as the event started I went to x255/y825 in JoT. I sit there for close to a minute,long enough to get spied on 5 times and attacked 9 times. I then moved to x5/y5 and shielded up and went on to playing the event and waiting for my reward! Now a few days later I'm still waiting!  What do I need to do different next time?

    Also on a different notice I pray for all of your peoples caughtup in the war!!! Please keep all of your players up todate on things because I'm sure that people from around the world want to know and they are also praying for all of you!!!   GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU !!!!!!!
