Mechanically, the event seemed to go off without a hitch. No lag nor bugs from what I saw and it spread the player base out which was good. Who cares about the rewards - we had some good laughs in TS and that alone was 110% worth my time.

Thanks for putting this all together Braknar!

The RNG port thing was a clever idea to make it somewhat less obvious that the most organized bard+porter grp would triumph. I was on last acolyte when the winner was announced methinks, and never had a bard and early on was without a designated porter. Got prty lucky and only got ported once, but it was by far the worst one, from CC to surefall. Kunark ate out alot of time too, since tried to hammer thinking it'd start at OT, and had to run from there all the way to Kurns to get that part started.

I would have added a lower tier reward for those who could only acquire one or two masks. My level 30 main got to Kunark before I realized it was no longer reasonable to continue, hearing murmurs about having to go into KC, and higher level zones. On the plus side I am a druid and made about 200pp porting.

Syphillis would have been a more appropriate reward. Trick!

Can we get a list of the TOP 10 finishers thanks

One thing i wanted to mention, is there a way to slow down the text the NPCs spew? I ran to Kith from Guk, saw about 90+ people hailing the dude from FF4, messed around with text box until I could figure out what he was saying, ran to Gfay to see the same thing, said "meh", and went back to leveling. Was cool to see tho, thanks for the event.

Hail mob, run 50 feet away, read text, run back in say trigger text, run back out so on so on

You have a point.

Ask yourself this one too. Other than velious launch, when was the last p99 event?

[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Successful Events:

Bum Fights was the last event in July.

Attempted Events:

Cheqmate
Melee and Caster 1v1 Bracket Style up to 40 players
Capture the Corpse PVP 3v3 or 5v5 on top of KC or ToFS

We have attempted alot of events with no luck because of poor or no interest.

DoF has asked for support with no response.

I didnt get to attend last night but after reading the feedback thread props to a well scripted event.

Like I told you a while ago DoF is here and willing to help you with anything. We come up with new stuff everyday. It is just sitting waiting to be used. Just because Moregan went off the handle doesn't mean the rest of us are sour. Ask anyone of us, Sorn, Filbus, Keke, Tupakk, Skylais, Snapcaster, Oggagar, and more.

who gives a shit what the rewards were?

GM events shouldn't mean "time to collect welfare pixels" you ungrateful crybabies

sounded to me like it was an original event that fit the halloween theme

looking forward to more things along this line in the future, thanks braknar
Completely agree, If your not handing out CoFs or Fungis everyone in their brother is complaining.

Fair point, I was more referring to these big GM holiday events. Bum fights was hilarious.

You did, but as this was a fully scripted GM event I didn't see where you guys would be able to do anything to assist.

Feel free to PM me if you want to chat about future events.

I'd like a ranked list of ALL of the finishers :P we can see where we finished. Also, how many people finished?

If you didn't get good loot, that just means the classic is working. Back in 2000, I never got crap in all of the GM events on Live. But loot has nothing at all to do with fun.
