Love seeing this event come back! Like the idea of fusions for this year's one!

Event seems basically the same as usual, so happy on that front. I will say I am glad the items are not in this year's (unless they are and you're just undecided yet).

Regarding points, I don't know if this helps but this is what you had last year:

Participation Points per-round - 5 points
Successfully completing all tasks grants - 20 points.
Secret Bonus - 20 points and a wild card of your choice.
Bonus points per likes/emoticons - [This didn't have a value]
Bonus points for the artwork with most likes/emoticons - 50 points

More than happy to talk points!

hi :) , glad you like the event.

The items rule was an experiment last year, I ended up removing it in the end so I won't add it anymore so no worries, the event will stay the same with a few tweaks here and there.

I always had troubles setting points because it's kind of a mix of a short and long event. This time I chose the point base for short event for now. I'm open to suggestions regarding them.
Having previous year reference is always nice to have, thanks :)

If you're doing 4 sessions with 10 points to the winner then you're only doing 40 points max to a team. I'd say it's probably okay to bump your points a little further to 20 for the win. Then it's a max of 80 points to one side + participation which is more of a mid point between the longform and shortform games.

Is it ok if I better add 1st 2nd and 3rd place for points?
updated scores for now, they are still provisional until completition

 

[Chr. Draco]

Almost ready, if there something you think needs to be fixed, adjusted, added or removed let me know

 

[gimmepie]

Looks solid to me. Will wait for one of the other management people to give the confirmation too.

Now I've seen the points etc. again - all good my end! Fingers crossed for some more people this time, 'cause this one sounds good! All Approved!
