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

LOL!!! :lol:

You nuts just made my day. So funny!!! Heck, you four have probably just left a cue for PGI's Staff to use for a future Event at some point along the way. :P

Big props to PGI for the event. It's a dark time time right now, and regular Canada Day events just don't feel right this year. Thanks for this.

People... Stop being picky about the Event and how it's designed.


Have you ever even read one of your own posts? I mean, being picky about the design of events is literally the only thing you do.

In any case, I'm just saying, if you're going to pick colors roughly matching the U.S. flag, a dark blue is probably a better choice than a fairly light blue.

Thank goodness I have all needed colors in required shades to make US flag properly... Posted Image

Thanks for the event after event after event during event... Mechs, premium time, game money, cockpit stuff, and some UAVs adds up to me being glad I have some time to play.

While that's may be looking OK, remember that such "event-packing" may eventually develop into burning yourself out (and throwing MwO away). Taking the break (and especially rational thinking to counter FOMO) is a good idea, regardless.

That's an old version of me which you're thinking of... Sorry that I left such an old image so horribly stuck in your head. ;)

If you're talking about the Dev/Mod/Streamer Hunts that have been happening, that's about the only thing I've really had criticisms for lately. Who really has a chance when they don't run long enough? Sure ain't me anymore, since all the factors necessary to do it properly (including people being human, versus a MatchMaker that is badly broken) have not been accounted for. :(

These days, I'm more an anti-critic... And I go complete anti-critic if there is something serious being addressed, like has been tagged on this Event's stuff. None of us have a right to whine when a serious issue is being brought up on the side of an Event's happenings, particularly with PGI Staff that are available to MWO being down to a skeleton crew. :huh:

Actually you can stagger a 2nd Event with your monthly event; it's almost inevitable that there's at least two (2) concurrent Events running during the month!

(In the case of July 2021, there's three concurrent Events that can be done together!).

OK (done the Mothly Duo Mech event btw), but so far:

[COOL MAPS CHALLENGE] Earn 5 Victories in Polar Highlands3 / 5
[CANADA DAY AND FOURTH OF JULY EVENT] Earn 7 Victories4 / 7

If only people could select the Polar when it show up in vote screen...

Wait.... are you actually complaining about half off mech sales? That seems... weird to complain about.

Complaining about sales? No not even close...I'm saying that the holiday weekend would have been a GREAT opportunity to HAVE a sale but PGI didn't have one (whether it be for in game items or for $, no sales at all <sad face>)
