Effective immediately, the majority of events will be held purely for entertainment value.
When I founded the Events Team back in January/February, there were next to no prizes for events. Now, it seems that people are begging the hell out of the Events Team members to hold events so they can get their greedy hands on some money.
Sorry, but, we're not the
Money Team. We're the
Events Team. We're here to entertain you folks. We're not here to give money out.
Now, that's not to say we will
NEVER give money out. Money will be given out during large SCHEDULED events. That's right, folks. Major events where money or prizes are involved will be planned.
So, for all of you money grubbing fiends out there who are trigger-happy to PM Events Team members to death saying, "PLZ HOLD AN EVENT", might wanna relax on that, unless you genuinely want an event held purely for entertainment value.
So, ET members, pocket your gralats for your own purposes, and players, understand that events shouldn't just be about winning something. It should be about having fun.
However, if players wish to pool their money together for an event, then they may hold their own "winner takes all" event.

That will be acceptable.
