First!

[CowwsMOO]

Wow these are some great prizes! Thanks PGI!

[Heavy Money]

Finally I can get an American Flag!

[remybernuy]

I thought I was going to have some Kodiak as a reward

[Khalcruth]

Um, wouldn't Escalation Deep Blue make more sense as a color than Escalation Sky Blue?

MWO is not a vehicle for your political opinions.

[Wid1046]

Dang, four colours is a fantastic reward, but I unfortunately won't be around a computer for a little over a week. Great for those that can participate though.

Actually scared me there.

Thought this Canada Event was for the entire month of July, and with no MC bonus!

(It's only for 6 days, so apparently there's another event for the entire month of July).

That's a "far reach" to see it as political.

P.S. Did you get the snowflake cockpit item in the other event yet?

And Far, if you're talking about the Residential School thing, Us Canucks literally just found the bodies of over a hundred CHILDREN where one of those Residential Schools used to be, and within a few hours drive of PGI HQ.

That bit at the bottom isn't political. It's called compassion.

I know that's an alien concept to most of you Vatborn.

People... Stop being picky about the Event and how it's designed. (We've also already had a Clan Assault granted too recently by an Event anyway!!!) This is literally no time to go around being stupidly full of pedantic whine. I am of some reasonable feeling that Mr. Matt Newman and the others have done a reasonable job of picking things out, and they don't need your insensitive aggravation right now. Remember, they could have skipped the Event entirely, and just put out a public statement instead. (I think the bunch of you would not have enjoyed being left like that!) Keep reading to understand why...

However, all of that is beside a major point. Given what I am reading on this thread, something rather horrific has recently happened within Canada's borders, and near the place where MWO emerged from. Right at this moment, those at PGI are doing what they can safely manage in order to lend a hand to those who are – or will be – affected by that incident. Let any who are being grief to them cease in such annoyance, and ask questions that PGI's Staff can safely answer, all in order to see if there is anything else which you can do that may be of some help!

Well, it's more one of the dark points of our history (Residential Schools, which was basically cultural genocide against Native Americans) rearing its ugly head in one of the worst ways possible, a mass grave of children who were sent to one.

Pretty much the entire country's saddened and disgusted by it.

Why residents of canada and usa just allways have to push politics into everything?

Also like in Poland. Here is a total mess as well, also related with CC...

Allright, enough of this off-topic.

I'm still worried if I would score those 5 wins on Polar Highland on previous event, so far I had 1, and yesterday I didn't had any chance to play on that map.

When Clan Jade Falcon reaches Terra you will fly our flag and like it.

Unfortunately, the truth is very harsh...

[MechNexus]

Slightly miffed that we got nothing for pride month yet this showed up, but I won't lose sleep over it. It's free stuff. Lovely move to add the acknowledgement & a hotline for support regarding the current residential school situation, though.

... though as mentioned earlier in the thread, isn't escalation sky blue the wrong shade? I've got it, and it's a bright cyan. Hell, it's right there in my signature.
(seriously, what politics? we gonna get any elaboration?)

Laughs in Jade Falcon slaughter at Tukayyid by a trumped up telecom company with 300 year old antiques piloted by mostly green horn pilots.
