Ok I will just say this. I don't want to be in a argument with a fellow events master. Yes we need to be more fair but there is just no way..lets look at some events. Musical chairs - 1 winner. yes its nice that you give out 3 prizes but there is no need to do that. Waterglass - 1 winner, labrynth the same, kart racing the same per race. Raffle would be the absolute only way to be fair if we went ur way. But even that isn't the case. i have seen 20 ppl there and the same 5 ppl win prizes.

We can be as fair as we want. you have your way of doing things and i have recieved no complaints about you nor about proto and thats a good thing. I really don't care if ppl complain about me personally. We Em's have our own ways of doing things. yours is just as right as mine. proto's is just as right as yours or mine....but to be totally objective i think staff would need to put in place a script that per day would record what account won the event and what prize they would recieve for it and that was that..they wouldn't recieve the same prize. So that way there would be none of this arguing about fairness or objectivity. We can only do so much. The fairest and most objective way i have found is event dungeon or rp event where i tend to give everyone a prize if I can.

If someone can win let him win, I'd say and don't restrict him for all of these events.

I also hosted several metris events and so far noone got a higher score... But I still take part in those

But I think it's ok if someone wins something like a cart event (happened a few times already) we announced before that the winner will not take place in the next race in the ranking. Means, he was able to drive the race but if he won the 2nd place got the 1st one and the 3rd the 2nd one and so on.
That's what events should be about, FUN. Not only items..

Having fun in Events left a long time ago. All they are about is getting items. The more items you have, the more popular people think you are and the more powerful you become. This is why GK only has 40 players at a time on anymore.

Bingo and I have brought this up several times. Look at deo and complaining about us apparently "restricting" him. I wanted to be fair and let others have a chance to get the wand too.

I actually didn't restrict him from entering but i did say he couldn't win another valentines day wand. I wanted to be fair. But these days its all about the prizes. Thats why I do rp events ....to make it fun. now get on gk..been waiting for a refill..lol.

Others DO have a chance to win wands. They simply have to beat me. Whether you choose to except it or not the main reason people enter events is to try and beat everyone and win the prize. Sure its fun to sometimes but i seriously doubt you would have nearly as many participants without a prize. I enter events to compete for the prizes. The fact that one person is better than some people at certain events should never be held against them. And no you can't talk about fairness when you refuse to give someone a prize for winning an event FAIR AND SQUARE.

That is the point I was questioning. I'm trying to be specific.

That wasn't because the EM determined the winner, those were the chances. Perhaps Bjorn would post the a snippet of the script which determines the winning ticket so that we can all see it's fair?

I understand Raffles are not 100% fool proof, but they are objective. Perhaps some sort of serverwide raffle over a few days with multiple winners would be more appropriate then for items similar to these.

How we supposed to get a good score on metris, when you get disconnected for not moving? ;o
