Uhm, folks....
You DO remember, that they used to repeat these things for different time zones, don´t you?

Why would they change that now?

Who are THEY?

They - being the Event Team.

Why would they change that now? - Maybe due to a lack of volunteers? I'm not saying this is the case, but if there's not enough volunteers to carry out different time zones, then maybe the info will just have to be carried by Xaphon here on the forums. At least, with minor parts to the story... where the major climax would hopefully be at accessible times with multiple runs.

Either way, I'm happy for the event

Peace,

Lack of people I suspect. Nevrax/Jolt had a large number of GMs, and the game only have two now (I think).

Probably right.
So just remember that, when people start whining about missed events again.
Interesting to see though, that people do seem to know the problem, but won´t do anything about it.
But maybe you are a volunteer, so who am I to judge. *shrug*

I really wonder how the repeat of events could be made feasible RP wise? I really want to see repeats too that would include the west cost NA's and those from Asia. The problem is only some types of events could be repeated without making it seem like a instanced quest I think... but I doubt the story events like these will work out in that way.

I mean why would Decalion show up twice to explain the same thing (though to different set of homins..)? ~.~

A bit harsh, really. I believe there are several reasons why volunteers are so low. One of the big ones (definitely for me anyway) is the economy. It's tough enough to scrape by right now, let alone volunteering time in a work capacity for a place that may not be around tomorrow. Please understand my point on this, in that I think it's the general consensus thought. I'd happily volunteer my time if I could devote at least an hour straight to the game, which I cannot right now. I'm online in-game quite a bit, but I'm rarely at the screen for more than 15 mins before I have to deal with something else for longer.

And on that second point, folks are just mired down in the wait-game, fed up with the status quo. I understand that things will hopefully different this time, but we see that each time. I'm confident though, even if it makes me a fanboy (meh, whatever, I love this game). Once the ball gets rolling I have every belief it will snowball back towards the good times we once had.

Also, I think there may be a bit of fear of that kind of role. I mean, you're becoming a virtual actor at that point and folks can still get stage fright (typing while your nervous and knowing ppl are tapping their toes and getting bored while you try and finish your next sentence isn't the most fun thought).

I guess my point is that finger pointing isn't really going to help, but I think that we'll see things improve steadily and quickly once things get moving at all. We just need those first few consistent nudges to get us over that hill.

Ahwell, that's my too many cents...
