I say that because the GC team does try to host a variety of events at times. However, I said hosting a variety isn't the problem because you are saying the current GC's are incapable of hosting those events when they really aren't. The events you may refer to are old, and not up with newer age events in which other servers have already shined upon the graal community.

Yeah that does play a factor, I'll let you have that, but that shouldn't skewer you out of hosting a variety of events.
Those are reasons as to why players don't join your idea of a "variety of events".

[quoteThat's not what I think, but since I "seem to think" it or whatever I'll let it go. On the other hand my old-school events and mock-up events worked pretty well. They surely failed in your eyes though, which is fine, everyone has rights to their opinion.[/quote]
I'm not sure about old school events but I usually don't see player participation high in any events, including yours. You can't call a 2-4 player participated old event a successful one.

What I am getting at is that you shouldn't down the current GC team because it partly isn't their fault for why players dont participate. The curriculum of events is getting old and boring on Classic, and players don't see need to play while there are other servers which offer more aesthetics in their events.

I never said anything about your abilities or if your capable or not, I said it doesnt happen often. Looking at your line up when you jumped on tag earlier Request+Fortbuilder+CTF, I didn't see the attempt. Recently though I have seen you host Musical Chairs which gets a thumbs up simply because I stopped and wondered "who hosts Musical Chairs these days?"

I'm referring to no specific events at all really, I'm just saying spice things up a bit and try not to be the same old thing. If other GCs are whoring the heck out of an event shy away from it, pickup some other events you dont see too often or be creative and come up with somethin you think would be fun (even if it's not that original).

That's coo, but it won't stop me from going out the circle of normally hosted events. I still get players and finish my events.

That's cause you're changing the definition of 'successful'. An event can be successful with one player, if it only takes one player to play it. Half the problem is you're switching terms around to mean things which limit down what you can do as a GC - by that logic you Drunken Stupor and Steps Elimination can never be hosted successfully because they can never have more then 4 players, and thus GCs should never host those events. It's a destructive way of thinking.

You say the curriculum of events is getting old and boring on Classic, but act as if the GCs are not responsible for that. Night really doesn't limit GCs at all as to what they can host, what style they must use when hosting, ect. ect.

I attempted a "Make Your Spar" a few days ago and only had 1 person wanting to play (Despite 8-10 ventrues doing their monthly spar tournament. Prolly bad timing). I host musical chairs once in a while to get out of the trend, but then again, that event is really boring if pk isn't on. Maybe it's not in my overall trend to host the unpopular events, but then again, they have reason to be unpopular.

No one simply finds enjoyment from altercations of current events, nor is that innovative, nor do people find the patience for an original event with extensive customary rules.

Well, not in the sense of limited player events. I was specifically referring to events such as spar tournies, or LMS' of all kinds. A 4 player event on a 30+ server just makes player participation sad, and yet there are so many wanting to apply for GC .

And Drunken Stupor doesn't require a 4 playercount cap. It can go up to 6+ players if there is demand.

But Night doesn't provide up to date resources.
