There was a major stink when the April leagues started about leagues encouraging tanking by resetting ones league history every month. In other words, if you had previously placed in a league and earned the incremental league reward, you could obtain that reward again when the new league season started. A player who dropped to a very low league during the month could then accumulate all of the league bonuses again in the new season.
So, when you placed for the May league season into a league you had been in previously, did you get additional gold?
If you haven't placed yet, don't vote until you have.
If you moved into a higher league for the first time at the start of league season, don't vote, but you can tell us in the comments if you got the expected reward.

I was Master III 4351LP before the season reset, then I played all of them and got to Master II.
From April season I was at Diamond II moving to Diamond I but not of the battles did count towards Legendary Pilot or anything, so something might have changed.

I'd inched my way into diamond 1 on April 1st. Got bored of the battles and used fun bots to slide down to toggle between gold 1 and diamond 3.
Today I started as gold 1 and got 100 gold for season end. Played the 5 battles, stayed in gold 1, but it says my next league advancement reward has already been received.

I started the leagues less than 100 points away from Masters and ended up Masters 2 by the end of month 1. Month 2 today ended with me at Champion and I think I got 400 Au. I've not gone down in a league yet, but this month I may have a hard time staying in Champion - cause it's hard enough to maintain 50-60% wins as a random with normal MM, but I've been stung with what looks like faders in quite a few matches. This pilot was in a close match were she/he scored about 100K with this hangar --- notice that this is a former Champion level pilot from the 2nd cup count and the sub-par hangar. To me, this seems like a pilot fading down to the basement --- we needed 6 pilots in that match. The only good thing is that I still got loser's gold from the event, so every match I play to the end for silver and gold placements.  |

I just finished my fifth qualification battle. Started in Gold II and needed just 12 points win or worse to go back to Gold III (that would mean 90 Au more for advancing back up, in case of a reset). I got better and so I stayed in Gold II. Haven't received any gold (and definitely went down below 1900 points during qualification).
So, it seems the desirable behavior of the system is no reset - which makes sense. Pity, there must always be someone who differs.

4 losses and a win in qualifying for a new league, mainly through missing members, put me in Silver 2... no Gold.  (I got 70 Gold when logging in for reaching top-Silver last month) |

iOS and finished the season a few points away from Expert III. I had previously pushed into E3 before and got the 140au reward (pretty sure it was 140). The season ended and I got the end of season reward of 140au (began season at D2). Then it started my qualifying - by the time I finished I must have made it back into E3 as I got the league advancement notice but no gold reward because I had already achieved it in the previous league. I have screen caps but will only post if asked (on my mobile and adding images is a pain).

Seems like it is still inconsistent and buggy then.

There must be a lot of tankers who saw the league season changeover coming and dropped massively. As you're rising up again in the leagues, are you grabbing all the gold league placement awards on the way back up?
I assume you are as everyone seemed to expect this behavior, and you would be coming on the forums to warn others if it wasn't as was thought. Please confirm here anyway, as I have been skeptical that this was the intended effect.

Gold III was supposed to be my next league, but ended up staying in Silver I. Still received 70 Au though.

There's no gold for moving up. Shows as "you've already received gold for this league"

I started in Silver 1, got all the way to Diamond 2 then tanked about 50 or so games and dropped down to bronze2. Climbed back up to Diamond and got more gold the second time around. Going for 3 times now.

April leagues I was in diamond. Tanked down to silver 2 right before the reset. I did get gold right after the qualifiers for placing in silver2 but nothing for silver1 or gold3. I guess I gotta go back up to diamond again b4 I get anymore placement awards. What a load of caca. Thanx Pixo for finding another way to screw over your supporters.

When did Pix say you can tank to get all the gold rewards again? Sounds like there is a bug as to whether you get an award for placing. I have not received one either league reset on iOS. Both times I placed in the same league I finished in the season before. Other players in the same situation claim to have received gold for placing. And still at least one tanker in this thread claims to have gotten multiple awards which were previously earned, while this one didn't. -Amid |

Pixo may never have said it but plenty of people on their Facebook page sure did, tank down b4 the reset and earn gold back from league advancement on the way back up. I can't be sure because this was the first time I tried it but my experience contradicts everything I read that made me do it in the first place.
Also in the spirit of full disclosure, now that I think about it, I don't think I got gold rewarded after my qualifiers. It was the end of season award for finishing in silver2. There was no gold after qualifiers for placing back into silver2.

I received 60 Au for being in Silver II, but I'd dropped back into Silver III a few days ago and climbed back into Silver II without receiving Au again. |

I started the last season in Silver 3 (Android) before advancing to Gold 3 in the same month. Finished the last season in Gold 3 and still in Gold 3 after qualification. I got 80 AU after the 5 battles.
Just to share, two seasons ago I was in Silver 3 then got advance to Silver 1 and stayed in Silver 1 after the qualification battle. At that time I got 70 AU.

I moved from Gold III to Expert III last month. I just got into EIII before end of the month. I received 140 Au for end of month. I then qualified in E III and received nothing.
