Please the torch commpetion (its my player opinion) was made to players, citizens of his lovely lands or alliances, try t o see how much they grow in skills -- tactics, via fights, and to give some awards, to the lands, that give to those, too much i dont like when i see (example) loreroot 1 golemus golmenican 1, none none none...
its to incentivate, the competitivity of the palyes is not necesary to build a indestructive army only one good and see if others have a chance..
is not a surprise, that some times only one land get a lot of score if u want to see ur land with score well fight, kill stop players that try to get easy pts form unsuspecting ply.
(maybe friendly alliances can exchange but donno)
if they win same thing twice, that's wrong
i dont think it was a bug but maybe ....
