Here is my feedback on this event. First, I didn't participate in it because it was planned like all other BHG| - Order| events, poorly. And why was this the case? Because, as usual, 50% of the BHG players that sign up for them, don't show up.
Let me tell you something, I will not log on for an event at the designated time, just to wait for your sorry ass 20 minutes, until you decide it would be time to get ingame. I logged on at 19:50 GMT, while the BHG were comfortably pvp'ing in O56. I waited until 20, they were still pvp'ing in Omega 56.
Let me tell you something else, when you decide to do an event, or better yet, when you yourself post on the forums that you would like the Order| and BHG| events to be resurrected, then I expect you to actually show up for them. Every single time these events failed because the BHG can never, NEVER bring in the numbers they say they will. The Order| is always bumping every single member, and a replacement for these events, and then when you fail to show up (AS USUAL), then we (they) have to tell these guys that they can't come because the BHG are short on numbers (AS USUAL).
One or two of your guys couldn't make it? Have replacements ready. This was NEVER the case, NEVER. You always have 3-4 guys short, and these events always fail because of you and your poor organization. Well I will personally never bother to attend them again, because you can obviously never stand firm to your word, and you can obviously not organize your members.
Oh and to whoever thought of a 8v8 event, thats gotta be the stupidest idea I ever heard. 8v8? Seriously?
That would be my feedback. Even the random raids I go on, that are planned in 5 minutes, turn out better organized than this. And you had a whole week.

Get over yourself. It sucks because you are the one that posts "Hey guiseee, lets revive events, yeaaaahhh", and then when its actually time to come your faction is never there and is never organized. Some of the guys that were supposed to participate today (including me) didn't come because as always your faction failed to show up in the numbers they said it would.
Kudos to everyone, too bad BHG couldn't bring more guys online.

True, but meh. It was fun after all.
Kudos to the ones who participated.
first we had to wait for the bhg felles... ok not your fail... your fellas fail...
and second it was impossible to hit anything with lowspeed weapons...
pure pain it was...
This post wasn't needed.
Speed of weapons doesn't matter if you know how to use them.
You don't, at least not in group fight and at least not debs. And it was no one else fault for that.
And yes, it wasn't nice waiting, especially when it happened many times before and that is the main issue.
@aerelm, repeating for 9435546 time, it was not your fault, nor you could do much when folks didn't show up.
People did overeacted with reactions, yes, but only cause it's happening always same thing.
I know some folks were sick, couldn't come, others don't have PC avaliable at this moment, it's all valid reasons for not coming, but it something every time and it gets a bit annoying after a year.
I hoped it won't happen again, that's all. Igor having different opinion, and deciding to post it here... I can't influence on it, it's his right, same with others.
Kudos to everyone who participated, Also, sorry for the delay from BHG Side. We waited till the last moment for 3 of our members to come, and when they didn't, we decided to start the event with 5 Ships.
It was a 5v6 Event, and pretty fun. Although it had its flaws because it was the first time. We'll try to do it again in a more organized way in near future.

Blame the ' R '. I pressed it and it said we should pew you.:P
Also, Some little notes as a Quote from a discussion with Tommeh on Skype:
Quote:First: It's not the matter of "Who Won, Who Lost". It was meant to be a fair and enjoyable fighter furball from the very beginning, and I don't know about Yourself, but from what I saw, most of the guys even on Order side had the Fun which was the main goal of this Event in the first place.
Second: If you check the 33rd Chat, I called everyone Ingame -One Hour- before the Event. It's not my fault that only 4 came and 1 joined right in the last minutes. I was trying to get enough numbers together till the very last seconds, PMing everyone on Skype and whatnot. But when people can't come, Can't come! Order is a Faction with gazillion members, There are too many Players playing Order Chars that the faction has 5 - 6 Groups -And- One Official Faction, all of which have more members than the 33rd. The slots on each side was High, so we can see how many Ships can each side bring, so we can judge for future events. From what I saw, a 5v5 would be good choice for standard number of future events.
Third: Part of that Half an hour delay was because the 33rd were at Capetown and I am the one responsible for this part, but the Wing is relocating to Daba, so it wont happen in future events.
Also: Order has access to 2.00 Magmas, 4.00 Reapers and 8.33 Death Hands, as well as 3.03 and 4.00 Nomad Protoypes and the Codenames. They can also use Zoner Furies as well as Civi Guns or request GMG Banana Throwers or IMG Vamps if they want any faster guns. So I don't really see why one of your members was bringin up the argument about Equipments.
Either way, as long as everyone had fun, means the goal of this Event was achieved. There sure were some issues there, which was because this was the First event being rearranged after a long time, and those problems can easily be fixed for future events.
In the end, to certain people who decided to come here to Rage, either because they're too immature to bring up a valid argument, or just want to +1:
- If you want to Help, list the problems of this even in a Flameless post, and suggest possible ways of fixing them, instead of crying about how bad the event sucked.
