That how Devnulls is. I say let him be, he isn't hurting anyone. He does a great job helping the community.

I like the one event per day format better, and if they each last ~four days instead of ~one day that's even better.

In fact for an advent calender tradition I wouldn't mind not being told what the daily prizes are, but I guess I should (have) just hold back from reading them

Well then the task you be able to b done in an hour (4 to 5 plays) of an PuG player. I don't see challenges like 1700 energy damage done in that timeframe

I've extended each Daily to 4 days so there will be plenty of overlap.
The reason I went with Dailies is the Advent calendar tradition of getting something each day.
The reason the first phase all combined was to allow for Mech Con Attendees to be able to earn them.
I did say I would look at doing the second half in phases but I also noticed people ripped through the first set of challenges really quickly.
I think dailies are nice because there is a new goal each day.
Dailies are not a super common thing for me to do but I do think they provide something fun for players to log in and shoot for. each Day.

Hopefully, no one gets stressed out trying to achieve these challenges.
If you spot one that is particularly challenging let me know,

Just stop listening to that guy who talks to much and thinks his opinion is the word of a higher entity.

You are doing a good job with the events Matt. Not like the guys who test, or rather not test the patches.

1700 energy damage in 5 drops averages out to 340 damage per drop. Reasonably doable with something like a Hellbringer or Ebon Jag.

[Bwah Ha Ha]

Would have rather had it the way it was before, only thing in the events I was hoping for was the Christmas bells and they are scheduled while away with family. So your right why stress, looking for the latest mech release events now.

[DarkFhoenix]

No Christmas stocking stuffer event ? Thats a shame i was looking foward to that .

Ahh well heres hoping for next year .

[Kalimaster]

A ginger bread Atlas decal, yummy.

[Rodrigo Martinez]

In my opinion events can be even better than they are - just, please, add a few pictures for the event page, with detailed descriptions and clarifications about how to reach specific event goals: tag damage, protection proximity, hit and run, et cetera.

P. S. Could you check up decals for day 18 and day 19 respectively? Are they similar or identical? Is it intended?

[Matt Newman]

There will be a Christmas Stocking Stuffer event as well!
Working on that and don't forget the Holiday Bonus Give away!

Also Upcoming
a Mech Pack Sale.
an MC Promo
Christmas Mech Sales.
a Boxing Day Sale.
a New Year's Event.
a New Year's Sale.

I better get to work!

So, what you are saying is that someone who expresses themselves differently to you should be an object of victimisation?

We all have bad days but learn to step away from the keyboard friend.

To bully is one thing, to seek approval from the masses in an attempt to bully is another. Take a deep breath and a moment to consider your actions. Apologising for the act of bullying in advance is not a justification, it is an admittance that you are aware that you are intentionally crossing a line.

One post... take a snooze and an unavoidable number of hours offline... wake up to some good and some chaos between my last and now... fair enough...

Hi again! Thank you for adjusting the Daily Challenge Durations, re-orienting them to be much less stress-causing, and allowing more overlap during this Holiday Season. If I had four physical hands of my own, they would all be doing thumbs-up right now. I'll be certain to alert if anything's still amiss, but I don't think anything will hit that point at the moment. Hopefully if something is still too challenging, someone else will alert you before I can see and figure it out.

I'll also most certainly be looking forward to all the additional items that you have listed as upcoming.

Hello there... I half thought of just ignoring these posts from you, but decided to allow myself to pull the pin on this proverbial mental grenade. Trying to make a bully or word-twister out of yourself does NOT become you, and this needs to be settled as calmly as possible. Good thing I brought my Anti-Bomb Container, because that's where the grenade's going, simply and concisely put. Please read on...

The items that you find in quotes when I'm hand-signing my posts are not any kind of self-quoting. They are extra thoughts that were unable to fit in my main post above, or in other cases are equivalent to 'tl;dr' (for others who read this, that's "Too Long;Didn't Read") summaries that I'm not very good at managing to do. Sometimes I'll even use the slot to throw in a random funny pun, although I have to admit I'm not that good at doing those in any way/shape/form unfortunately. I'm just odd in that I put them in a manner that isn't totally flow-breaking to a Forum Thread for most anyone.

Frankly, I hope this gives you better insight into my own posting style, and helps you not be aggravated anymore. If it doesn't help at all, you have my sincerest apologies for not being easily clear any time sooner about this. Heck, if you had brought your issue up with me in Private Messages before now, instead of out in the open like this, we could have resolved it a hell of a lot more quietly than it is when out in the open like this. Or were you trying to make an unnecessary fuss over it?

<*doesn't hear the grenade go off inside the container, and wonders if it was a dud*>

...and now to scram off to the battlefields again. I wonder what I might be good at breaking Components with?
