Honestly I really like the items, the header, the sandcastle contest. I like basically everything about it.

Except for one thing: The RIG (Random Item Generator) way of achieving the event items.
I liked in the past how event items were in the event shop.
I understand that the RIG system was recently developed and you probably wanted to use it again, but it's really quite frustrating getting the same items after flushing 100 seashells down the drain, especially for lurkers who are already having to post a lot more than usual just to get items. (Which I'm not complaining about having to post, realize that please. :3)

My suggestion is possibly making one rig option as opposed to as many as there are now. It costs say 25 currency. It has a very high chance of dropping the cheaper items, and a rarer chance of the higher ones. Because if I'm going to drop 100 of a currency, I want to be able to choose what I get. Then leave the shop and make everything else purchasable like past events.

I'm sorry if this offends anyone!

@vengeance: I agree with this as well. Isn't the whole point of event items that they are readily available and they will be considered rare later because you could only get them when the event was occurring?

@Lucan: I'm having an extremely hard time getting the event items. I have three. Two of those items I have received more than once after doing the 100 seashell option. You shouldn't receive doubles of anything until after you complete the set.

@Lucan: Thank you so much~ Greatly appreciated.

I'm 100% agreeing with this one. Thumbs up!

I haven't had a hard time getting shells so I can't comment about that.
But I do feel like the random chances were weighted well at least.
I've mostly played the 100 shell, and I almost never got the lower tier items as prizes.
I'm glad for that at least, because it seems it's rarer for people to get something like a duck floatie for spending 100 shells. (Though it may still be possible, idk) ((Edit: It's totally possible. Just happened to me. <_> ))

Maybe being able to just straight up buy them from an event shop would be better. I wasn't around for past events where that was the case, so I can't compare.

I also wanted to say that Vreg's Treasure Hunt thread is so much more fun than Vyc's Volleyball thread.
I participated in the volleyball thread, but it was not that fun for me. I just did it for participation items, and it was more of an annoyance than enjoyable.
Vreg's thread though has been fun to problem solve together with my other Volties.
Also Vreg is adorable. Can we have more of him?

I agree, it's summer and I'm a mom of two and it's a bit hard to get on all the time. Plus I noticed that most are just tying to buy event sets in the Exchange and there is like hardly no one selling any. Unlike the Alice event were you could get items from playing a game for that day. And if you didn't you could get it in the store.
But yeah I agree with putting the items in the shop so we can have a better chance to actually GET the items.

I must say I agree on the rig part there should have only been one or two rigs. Not four. And we shouldn't get doubles until after the fact of getting one whole set.

I ain't a fan of volleyball. I didn't get the chance to do the treasure hunt. As to I've been very busy because it in summer time. I still have to get a hold of family, about a family reunion.

@Neko: I agree with everything that you have said.

@Neko: Yeah. That happened to me too.
I had 125 shells and played the 25 shell until they were all gone. Nothing but backgrounds.
