Default Should fame scale with time of day?

Well as the topic states, I personally think the fame you gain from tombs victories should scale with the time of day, or maybe even the amount of teams competing in halls.

I know I didn't write much considering the nature of the statement, but I like to be direct.

Your opinion?

A better way would be to sum the fame of all opposing teams teams, average it, and grant a bonus based on how much more fame they have. For example you could be playing on off hours and still run into a top 20 guild. If you win do you really deserve a fame penalty? Along the same lines during peak hours you can run into a bunch of newb groups. Fame bonus based on apparent opponent skill would be nice. As for people grouping with a bunch of low ranks to boost their fame, picking up a bunch of newbies is usually asking for it. Additionally if a rank 9 takes seven rank 0 players, gives them builds, trains them, and then beats rank 6 teams he deserves that bonus.

In a 3 way match:
Sum up the total fame for team 1 (player 1+player 2... +player n)
Sum up total fame for team 2
Average fame ( [Team 1+Team 2... Team n]/n)
Sum up fame for your team and compare to other teams. If it is less you may get a bonus.

The theory: A rank 3 team beating a rank 6 team either means the rank 6 was overrated or the rank 3 was underrated. Since you can't remove fame boost up the rank 3 team.

Well I do like your point, that it's still possible to face a challenging team in off-hours, and thus calculating rewards based on what you faced seems more fair, however to add to your point maybe a reward based on how many teams you faced would be fair as well, considering how hard it can be to repel a 3v1 gank n' whatnot.

Yesterday we went up against a level 20 guild "Random PUG" and won.. but we only got 1 (one) fame for it.. and we weren't even a guild.. that's not fair.
