Yeah lets go into every GM event and expect utter crap from now on.
I don't understand your complaining. If you thought it was crap, don't participate? Nobody was forcing you to do anything.

O how I miss the days of Uthgaard, where events were actually fun, exciting, and ORIGINAL! This is a game, so we are sorry that you are not having fun doing the job that you volunteered for. If your idea of fun is griefing the blue server to get your jollies off, go back to red.

The event last night to those who participated was a complete and utter waste of time for everyone involved. Stretching on into the 3-4am time slots on a weeknight, like most of the events that go on now, you got to see a normal CT and Inny in fear with 150+ people. Then by some gawd awful prank, of all guilds TMO is in charge of loot for some fkn reason. The guild who has the worst reputation for not playing nice or sharing is telling people to work together. This was by far the best joke of the evening. The close runner up was watching the live stream and laughing at how the event was a total cluster fuck on the staffs behalf. No one knew what they were doing.
I'd really like to hear how you would have handled loot better than TMO who let everyone present roll.

In regards to the event itself, I really think it could have gone better. The stuff seemed like it was hastily put together and took a very long time for rewards for just a slim few involved. However, it is very much appreciated that effort was put in to do an event at all.

I thought it was a "fair event" and it was something different. Only time I've ever had a chance to loot an AoN or Puppet Strings. At the end of the day though, events are not about loot, and I feel it was something different than vanilla play. If the lag out and zone crash problems didn't happen, I'm sure less people would be complaining. Those problems were out of GM control.

Not sure what people expect from a volunteer project.

CT and Inny are loose in the world outside of their realms. Not clever, nor original, done last year without the engage. Its not about the loot, its the event as a whole. Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't zones like EC and WC made to handle a higher population compared to zones like Lfay. Keeping the event in EC like what was announced hours before the actual event took place, would have prevented things like this from happening.

.......A normal CT and Inny in fear?

'Cause inny and CT in fear are normally lvl 60, CT normally has lvl 60 golems, and they usually roll with 500k hp. Also, inny is usually in fear kickin it with cazic. Not to mention both those mobs had abilities set that they don't usually have.

You can talk all you want about 'the days of uuthgaard', but the fact is that there was no such thing as 300 people in fear killing gods when uuth was around. We simply did not expect that big of a turn out (lfay was impossible to manage, and THOSE god mobs broke right off the bat - were not using any abilities we had set them up with at all. Those things should have been melting face fast enough to keep lfay population down).

You had 4 staff members in skype trying to fix the encounters and keep things exciting, and when we realized shit wasn't working, we adapted quickly and set something up that was 10x more fun in fear. If you didn't like it, sorry. I know a lot of people did, and i know we had fun running it.

Was waiting for this QQ thread once lfay started desyncing. Thx for making my morning [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

To everyone who enjoyed/had fun, your welcome! Next time we'll set something up that compensates for the desyncing problem (IE, keeps under 200 people in the zone).

Oh, and lowbie event was hiding items on merbs throughout norrath. Congrats to anyone who found our treats!
