no, but i can still make fun of them for their piss poor execution.

The PTS was poorly done.
This event is not. Would like to hear your reasoning tho.

I'm sitting on 3800 points, and I still have 3 maps to complete. And since I've only seen Tourmaline twice since this tournament started, I doubt I'm even going to get tier 1.

PGI, man up. And correct this event, with OP suggestion.

PGI is doing a great job in general. However, factors that made the event poor:

1. It doesn't pay out until the last 300/400 score on the 9th map (hours spent grinding wasted)

2. Player has no control over which map drops

3. The chance of getting the maps needed drops the more one succeeds

4. Getting a unneeded map gives incentives for poor play

5. Perception that big guilds can gain an unfair advantage by abusing the system

Simply changing from 300 minimum to 300 average as in OP removes almost all these problems
