I liked the Vontell thread. It was cute.

The lore being separate is good. Allows people to ignore it if they're not interested.

Any way you want to serve up lore is good. Randomly appearing seems like a bad idea unless we get notified of it somehow.
I can foresee a situation in which some people completely don't notice, and miss out on lore.

During the beach event, I had good incentive to participate.
This anniversary event though, I only feel incentivized to enough submit entries into design and drawing threads because it was simple for me.
Posting doesn't feel like it has a purpose for me, this event.
I'm more of a lurker at heart, so I can't bring myself to try posting (and numbering) for *chances* at getting items.
I'd prefer posting to get currency and turning it in, or participating in some kind of actual game or activity.

The Frizz thread is more fun, but it's annoying that it's only on certain pages. People would want to join in on those pages so they get a chance, but then they'd have to keep track of the pages.
Or some people would want to participate for prize chances but might be unlucky enough to never be online when it's on the prize pages.

Yeah, the details of how Frizz's thread worked shouldn't have been included in the image.

Noted on the rules thing! For me on mobile I can zoom in clearly on the images no problem, but I understand that isnt universal for browsers. Will from now on separate all rules.

I love Vontells thread too, but we also have to consider managability. Leaving it open multiple days would be a lot of catching up for post management while staff slept and such. Ultimately as the site grows, threads like Vontell's sadly wont be possible.

As for the page number prizes, maybe it would be best to say "every page for x pages" but I worry that would make it easier for the same cpuple people to just keep posting all night and secure before others get to see it? Nonetheless, youre right that we dont want people uninspired to play until the page numbers are close. Will try to think of work arounds!

Super appreciate the feedback guys. :)

*goes to review the wonderland event because it was before my time*

@Hazer: oh right..I forget about that cuz there is usually nothing in there.

i also like event items
i just like to hoard
i like most event items. the wonderland and halloween sets are my fave

@Unicorn: Yeah, Vontell's thread was nice, but it's a lot of work for them to keep track of all the messages. That's why they limited it to just the one day.

Though, having some word ahead of time would have been nice.
That goes for anything on the site.
Things that happen for just a short time definitely *must* be properly communicated beforehand.

@Dowan: I love the fact that we got to spend volts for event items, as much as I love it when we have event currency for event items.

but the bundle, and bucket should of been for volts, and the items of the event be event currency.

now I know that it may, or may not work that way or ever again for that mater. but if there is away around it to happen again I say have it that way. Just an idea.

Does anyone have any suggestions, for what game they would like to play in future events? Planning games around Forum restrictions can be quite tough. It would help a lot if you guys gave ideas to what games you would like to play in the forums.
