Free = ~(Event)

Not Free = Event

Transverse logic.

You realise that all you've proved here is that the events equal cost for the provider of the event, not the participant, right?

CLOSE PLEASE.

Hey man, don't you think that's borderline hypocritical? Don't care what us misguided morons think, yet here you are blasting all the posters who actually enjoyed the extra content...

You win some, you lose some. Calm down, relax... people will take you more seriously if you actually pose arguments and rebuttles instead of raging all over the place.

I thought the 2006 Haloween event was worse, mainly because it was so similar to 2005's. It was kinda a let down for me.

I got 3 pigs now. Yaayy!!!! And more tokens than I know what to do with.

The title was sdesigned to attract a heated debate, not people saying I have no life, im bitching, im whiney, im mature, im childish etc etc etc.

50% of posts = mindless people who cant see it from other points of views saying how great the festival was, 40% personally insulting me, 5% thoughtfull replies against me, 5% thoughtfull replies with me. It's really not good enough and I don't deserve the crap im getting here. One of the most frustrating things is people talking about me as if im not human, as if I cant hear. What the hell gives everyone here the imperssion I'm somehow a lesser being, one not worthy to be in their company? Everybody here is so high and mighty, and oh so ready to gang up on someone. I used to love these forums and im very disappointed. Oh and yeah you're right, I am angry and I think I have every right to be.

CLOSE PLEASE.

I see it from your view, I farmed everything except uncutous remains all by myself, I bought a pig for 35k, The only thing different is I didn't open Fortunes for my pig. I am in your point of view, I just see it differently. I don't feel angry because people got pigs and I had to pay for mine, great for them! I don't feel angry 'cause I worked my a$$ off farming all those things and wasn't even recognized, I had an amazing time.

Seeing some of your issues, it seems to me you were doing this for money, ie you were ungrateful for the prizes you got from giving stuff that you took time to farm hoping for a money making prize. I farmed everything, too, and I KNEW I was only going to get tokens, but I was doing it 'cause it was an event that was meant to allow people to have fun and I did.

as Eilsys said, you are being hypocritical, saying people shouldn't be criticising you is not what you started this thread for? maybe you should have a better title to attract less posts targeting you. You start a thread with this name and you are bound to get comments on your personal life AND IG life, but as YOU SAID it is an ONLINE GAME and what they say shouldn't hurt you unless you are 10 years old.

k, most of the event is great, but a few things

roller beatle racing, I love the idea, it is a WONDERFUL idea, it is in fact, perhaps, the best idea I have ever seen in this game, bad parts are

1. the powerup business, I personally prefer severly limited energy pool <ten energy, five and ten energy skills, one e denial skill instead of all the kd, RUN FASTER than your competition instead of knock them down>

2. I'd like to see more tracks next year

3. this REALLY looks like the closest thing we're going to get to institutionalized running, if it is I'd love to see a version of this living all year, even though I suspect it won't <I'd like to see a runnning title too, but that's not going to be forthcoming is it?>

Actually I specifically say I enjoyed some people's criticism of my opinions, however most of it is BS about how ultra rare pigs are etc etc. It's not hypocritical at all. What people say to me on forums does hurt me, when they insult me personally. To them it has nothing to do with the game, they are insulting me personally, and it does hurt.

You really like the word BS eh?

Your problem was starting a post saying 'Worst.Event.Ever', and of course thats going to attract alot of flaming. Did you honestly think that people would agree with you? You also flamed others for stating their point of view, and then complain when people beat down on you.

Thats the pot calling the kettle black eh?
Hypocrytical anyone?

Back on topic~
The event was awesome. Sure like every other event there where periods when it was sort of boring but thats the event, i got over it.

I loved the firework show and the bottle rocket popping sounds

imo, Champagne Poppers are the best celebration item yet~face full of confetti anyone?

Finding that the great Celestial Pig was only Level 8 was a laugh, and there was alot of jokes about the whole 'Iron Chef Cantha' thing, for me it was the best event like last year's Canthan New Year.

Although the lack oh having to collect for a Headpiece did sort of put me off, since collecting the Jade Orbs was so much fun!

How did this flamewar get to 11 pages? Close time.
