Wheres all the GM events been at.

[Kagey]

When I first started here I was a little weary about the amount of GM attention the server would receive. But then at level 16ish I was in Kurns Tower and was witnessed to one of the best GM events I've seen in awhile.

Because I was too low I obviously couldn't join in but dropping Delf masks n such made me excited to take part in another when I was 50+

Here I am now at 55+ and no sightings of another GM event. Is Velious taking so much a toll that their is no time for these events until release? which is no where in sight.

There have been a bunch of minor GM events since July of last year, like gnome races or runs following willowisps from EC to Qeynos for rings of shadow, or numerous GM events on red. GM events aren't announced so if you're not on to see them happen you probably wouldn't notice that they happened at all.

Larger scale GM events require some level of scripting and since it has been all hands on deck for Velious, I'd imagine that there aren't a lot of people clamoring to take a break from scripting in their spare time by scripting in their spare time for benign events.

Maybe we could entice them by asking for malignant events?

The Development Team is different from those who would script/run GM events. Uthgaard's gone, and I'm pretty sure he's the only one who knew how to script super-cool GM events.

The event Kagey mentioned was run by Derubael, Uthgaard was long gone.

I imagine the number of GM events is inversely proportional to the amount of petition questing, forum lawyering, bitching about rotation, and making names like Dickpouch McMeatwallet.

PetitionQuest probably spot on there. A GM's gotta want to do an event and have time to put it together, PetitionQuest surely drains both of those resources.

I can't find the direct quote, but either Sirken or Deru have said on here/Reddit that Uthgaard is/was the only GM with the know-how and inclination to script "Super-cool" GM events that require more know-how than the current staff has.

Uth was part of the Dev Team, though, so my first comment is wrong.. and also probably why he knew how to do super-cool GM events.
