Hello! We've just finished the first major event that has been run under the new mod team! For those of you who weren't there, here's a summary:

POST-EVENT DISCUSSION

[counterfaith]

HI FRIENDS!!! This was our first event and we did a lot of things in it!! Much thing, very happen, wow. While we're happy that it was a success, we'd like to hear more in-depth from you, the playerbase, about how the event went for you! If there's anything that you'd like to see improved, or maybe exploradoras aren't your style, or you'd prefer xyz things rather than abc -- stuff like that. We'd like to hear from both players who played in the event as well as players who didn't play in the event!

Specifically, we'd like to know things like:

Pacing
Was the event paced too quickly? We understand that the run times might not have been ideal, though that's out of our control. Still, we did have a lot occurring here! Would you prefer it if this event had lasted 2 weeks? Should it have been cut down to just be the exploradoras and then the battle to make it like a weekend thing? Etc etc etc. Related thoughts here!

Style
Did you like the exploradora? Did you prefer the EIY? Should EIY have been longer? Was the event confusing to follow, or did it feel too hard to jump into? Do you prefer more fights? Less exploradora? More something else?

Out of Character Info
Things like announcing/transparency, i.e. 'if I'd known Friday was a boss fight I would have joined!!' kind of thing. Obviously some things we can't talk about (i.e. the involvement of Siegfried and Solomon) in advance, and we do realize our late announcement resulted in feeling rushed for some players (definitely us) and we'll be working to more properly announce things in the future. Did it feel rushed for you? Was there stuff in the event that you wish you were warned for, like squicks?

Other Things
Things that aren't covered under the three!

Additionally, if you have any questions, here's the place to talk! Here's a handy dandy textarea for all your easy copypasta needs:
