We can negotiate future royality payments . failure to comply will result with horus having to wear a costume of my choosing for all wednesday raids.

i did not mind the feedback regarding the challenge. i didnt find it hurtful or offensive them saying they didnt like to participate in challenges set by others that they liked to do their own..


what is bothering me is the same handful of people, repeating over and over and over both here on the forums, and in game, that certain things have sucked when they themselves offer up no suggestions or ideas, and dont host or hold events themselves.

there IS a difference with these 2 instances.

I think I have hosted enough things to know that xy or z didnt like it and ab and c did. if i was that sensitive, i wouldnt continue to put myself out there hosting activities for the server.

ahhh all the days i spent there instead of sitting in class.

Banana McJammypants is 1 of my all time faves ive seen...

A bunch of us were in vent 1 day, id say probably 9 or so months ago and we saw that name.. 1 of the guys using a news reporters voice said..

" and with sports, is banana mc jammy pants"

Yes, it was 1 of those you had to be there moments but i assure you it was HILARIOUS and i think of that each time. I think this guy also did a monster truck style theme saying the name.


ya i know. Anyway...

Simple fact of the matter is that no matter how many surveys are posted, questions asked, feedback positive or negative is received, there is no way to please everyone, every time.

It has been my own personal experience through events ive hosted both in and out of perc that no 1 thing appeals to the masses. I have done the actual in game content, set up challenges, set up tasks or things that did involve actual game/content play.. when those have happend, very very few people would participate. I can recall 1 particular challenge we posted and I/we (my sg) thought for certain a few of our more challenge driven players would attend.. when they didnt I asked why. The replys i got back from a few of them were " i dont like challenges set up by others, i like to make my own". Which is totally fine and I appreciated the honesty.

What was interesting is that numerous people from other servers, did contact me and said that even though it wasnt a challenge on their home server, they wanted to participate, even knowing they wouldnt win the prizes... Stryker was 1 of them. If i recall, he posted his results in our forums.


Another issue is that its been said that we only reach about 10% of the player base VIA the forums. I think this # may be a bit higher on champion due to different channels and the MoTD's.. the thing is, setting up challenges and such that requre a bit of pre planning or orgznization is hard.. a lot of the people that tend to participate come from word of mouth or just dumb luck.

I can point most recently to the Halloween foot race. which is why, on the fly, i changed the format. It had been set in teams, but, more people showed up from hearing about it last minute and thought oh hey that could be interesting. As it turned out, a lot of newer people participated and the feedback was actually pretty positive. Im very well aware a few of our more vocal posters thought "it sucked and was lame" but, as i said earlier, there isnt going to be any 1 thing that makes everyone happy.

As someone thats spent a lot of time trying to be creative and come up with entertaining things to do, i find it a bit insulting some of the replys from some of you. You dont wish to participate, fine, thats your prerogative.. but.. keep the "this or that sucked and was lame" to yourself.

Instead of saying bla bla sucked, id like to see what ideas and suggestions you have for things to run... its not exactly easy thinking of things or events to do that would have broad appeal and interest.


TL;DR - No good deed goes unpunished / everyone's a critic. / opinions are like ********
