So you guys are complaining because one guy received a chemical gun?
Just this alone is weird because you´re only complaining about the chem and not about the other items that were hosted but let´s leave that.
I wouldn´t really say he got it free because it was a reward of 2 combined events - a skill one (hide and seek) and then luck to be chosen 1/25.
Requires alot of luck and skill to actually win that with 3500+ players online.
As I said I´m not surprised - however I am surprised that the guys who´re complaining in this thread don´t complain about other stuff.
Yesterday we gave out 7000 Event Coins FREE and I didnt see anyone making threads. Nor did anyone make threads about the facebook share that hands out items that are nearly worth as much as the chemical gun. And those aren´t even given out in an actual event in the game.
And no don´t try to come at me with the "This is advertisement"-argument. There are too many people using graal FB accounts for it to actually be a good way of advertisement.
The EC currency has been killed through the years due to fb shares and free ec stuff and no one said a word. I didnt see any staff or player complain about it ... But one. And guess what that was me.
By now it is too late to stop it as ECs aren´t worth anything anymore. And now you guys complain because I do a single event and hand out a few items to not just those who have the best internet connection (thats what events are about these days).
Have you guys ever seen someone complain about a RL lottery because someone just won 1 Million dollar and you have to work years for that much money? I doubt it.
However there is one thing I have to admit - I should have announced that this event was going down earlier so more people could participate. That is a fault of me and I didn´t think of that so my apology for that.
And now enough words of the panda - someone has to work countryside so you guys stop complaining about the next thing.
Farewell,
