None of my criticism of this event is relevant to which server I play on. I did the event on a level 50 and didn't run into a single player in PVP range of me because our group was usually a continent ahead of the rest of the server. So I may as well have been on blue.

Thank you for pissing people off. Angry nerds is the only joyful thing I find on this forum... that at newbs getting help. Keep up the good work overlords!

Thanks for taking the time to set all of this up. I appreciate the work that goes into this and making sure it goes smoothly so everyone can have fun!

What I liked:
-I liked that you forced everyone to get out of their comfort zone a little bit and explore new zones!
-I liked the searching for the acolytes aspect. Though once it was found, everyone just seemed to follow the flood, maybe have the acolytes respawn in a new location every once in awhile(from a preset list of locations in the zone). If they respawned on a timer, then that would break groups up less if the entire group speaks to the acolyte at the same time.
-I like that there were more pick up groups. As a bard, I ran around inviting random people to run to the new locations with me. It was fun getting to meet some new people along the way.

What I thought could be improved:
-The tricks that ported you many zones away were just annoying and not as fun. Maybe in the future, instead of porting you off somewhere(which broke up our group and wasted time more than anything), maybe spawn mobs instead to bring groups/guilds closer together.(if if you did want to stick with this idea, maybe port the player, but give them the item also once they load. I saw people getting ported 2 or 3 times in a row)
-I didn't like the reliance on druids/wizards to basically port you everywhere. I would rather have some type of clickable teleport like a firepot. (this wasn't really a huge issue, its just that people spent a lot for porting tips, and many didn't even get to finish the event)
-The time limit was a bit annoying. I got to 14 out of the 16 acolytes when the event was shut down, and was a bit upset that I didn't get to finish the event after putting so much work into it.(if the time limit is unavoidable, then it might be nice to know the time limit ahead of time, so I could just stop if I knew I wasn't going to finish) Another idea is to have an upgradeable item so the further the player gets into the event, the stronger their item gets, that way, no one goes home completely empty handed.
-The loot I hear was a bit buggy, but that wasn't intended, so I won't worry about that.

Thanks again! Keep up the great work and I'm really looking forward the the next event!

To skip the bullshit ass kissers, this was by far the worst event p99 ever hosted. While ai appreciate everying this server has brought me, this event had no server entrigity, every past event was fun!!

I love this server, and when hipe about holiday events get brought it, it makes me super excieted, i dont give a fuck about guises or any of that.
most eventd cater to ranger/druids be fun if you guys brought back the old events zombies invading towns.

i dont know man, make it simple, lets use /a smash and bash, have fun random loot. lustrous russet droping off invading zombies, etc. gods in zones outside their realm with odd loot tables, create fun itmems never creative with absurd charges!!!!

The rewards masks upon turn in, give +10 clicky charges of that illusion!
I dont know man its hard to hate, we beat that drum of free server etc, but come on, thats the best...

Better luck next year.

When I was doing it I throught it was funny but when I finish it I fell like 4 hours of my life waste. I know you can't give us a manastone or a guise but http://wiki.project1999.com/Chipped_Bone_Collar.... pleaaaaaaaaaaaase
Guys you take the queen of paty to home but you fail at bed.

quadreuple drunk posts!!

I dressed up as wilson form home improvment!

$2.50 custome, anyone else have anyting cool?

[Stormfists]

I didn't do it but everyone who I've spoken to have said...

- Rewards weren't worth the time.
- What is essentially an treasure hunt (finding NPCs) would have probably been more appropriate at Easter.

Looking forward to zombies for Good Friday though - can we get Jesus as an undead holy knight?

But overall am really impressed, gg coders.

Was expecting the illusion thing to last a bit longer. Stayed up till 6am euro scumbag hours to finish the event, logged in today and illusion goodness was gone alrdy. =<

Running around the world was fun enough, although it felt like it went on a bit too long overall. Was kind of expecting there to be a newbie specific event going on, and top end crew would get their own stuff. First time we saw that message about creature lurking in Kithi, we assumed it was some raid boss to distract the raiding guilds.

Idunno, I thought we'd all get 10 dose illusion pots or something and first five to finish get extra special rewards. I get that everyone on server shouldn't be forked over guises and fungis, but cosmetic sillyness don't really hurt anyone.

Fun to at least see an event for once, even tho it meant staying up until the morning. Euroscum still dreams and wishes these could be started earlier!

I wonder how much lower the pop will be tonight versus last Sunday...not much change I'd say.

The reward was disappointing, but i enjoyed the event. It was fun to see 30+ people running the same direction with bard speed.

It would have been nice to be able to return from wherever you are ported for a trick without having to find a port. No way i would have completed the event had my druid buddy not been kind enough to carry me along.
