Comments
I'm super excited to get into this event! ^-^ I absolutely love having more stuff to do when sites have events. I'm really looking forward to trying my best to get the high tier, the items are pretty nice as well as the potatoes and trophy (I love to collect trophies)!
Also please be generous with the points for the upcoming tasks
Hopefully as others said the newer tasks will give more points. I will say I also feel odd about admins participating, no other sites really do that, though as long as no special rewards come to leaderboard people idc as much.
I don't have strong opinions of staff in the leaderboard, only that it's may seem discouraging to some people. Maybe to me, too... I love staff and I appreciate their hard work, and I hate to be the gatekeeper, so I'm not saying staff can't be playing and enjoying the festivities, it's just it seems a bit unfair. To ordinary players, staff are in a position of power, even if they can't "cheat" events or anything like that, god forbid... Someone proposed the idea of staff having their own leaderboard, and it sounds pretty fun!
On another note, it's first public festival, right? It's okay to make mistakes and changes, it's okay to listen to your playerbase. The clothes items are lovely, and I truly hope they will be reachable. The art for embers is sweet as well... And that art with Lilia and Fantasia?! I would make a little pillow or a poster out of it, I adore it.
God I love events.
What did we get? another time gate. A TOWNBOUND NPC-BOUND time gate. This is stressful and just not fun.
A way to remedy it/an idea: let the questing you already did count. The game keeps track of how many times you do certain dalies. Just let a player who completed Bearnards stuff get a pass for the activity whenever it pops up.
There are two ways you can still have essentially the same task while dodging the problems with it:
1. Make it a "Help Bearnard 6 Times" thing you can do once every 24 hours and get all of the points at once.
2. Give us another system like Embers. They have been a very great solution who can only do Dailies in batches, so how about tokens for completing Bearnard Dailies? Here, you can use my art if you want a placeholder.
