CG Top 25% Deserve Something Extra

Mk IV ? Yesterdays news.

Why does everybody forget the Alliance missed out on a Megaship or two in the WHN?! Thats the real scandal surely, we tried so so hard as well.

Oh I got a 30m bonus for being in top 25% as well, so nah nah all you 50%ers!
 
So we can agree anyone complaining they dont get more from the CG in response to the 75% crew getting access to the goal, but can we not also agree that everyone who complained the CG was unfair (somehow) in order to make Fdev GIVE them something they too did not earn per the guidelines of the CG, were also acting like entitled children?

I can agree that it's Friday, Borko's hosed, and this thread isn't ridiculous enough yet. Anyone for a game of Lick the Thargoid? Sit DOWN, @RELSPI.
 
Don't let that old advice fool anyone, I assure you I don't know what I don't know

Sorry my head just exploded! I guess your name should have given me a hint as to your gender, but don't two negatives make a positive, if you don't know what you don't know then you must know what you do know!

You know? I don't know. But to topic, ladies and gentlemen playing elite dangerous. If you're super worried about getting super duper grinding rewards in an eterally early access space game. You weren't trying to get it to get it, you were trying to get it so someone else couldn't. That's not a good way to be in life. Be good to each other.
 
Don’t sell me the extra effort nonsense. This is a leisure activity; if you think it’s work, why are you playing at all?
You probably need to have done hard work at least once in your live to understand the problem.

Most of the game is fun, yes. But this CG was not at all about the money, it was about the module. People wanted it so much that they invested lots of time in that tedious menial grinding activity to stay in top 25%. Happy that it was over so quick. And no, this part was not fun. But the module was worth the effort.

Giving it now to all the others, maybe even two, when they dabbled a little bit in both, but still not invested half the effort, is a stab in the back for the people who went out of their way to earn it the original way.

People made their participation decision during the CG based on the rules. If the rules were different, they would have made different decisions. Changing the rules afterwards is a betrayal to all those people, who were conned into acting in a way, that they would not have done, when the rules were changed before the CG.

See the post directly above yours, Ngst. I couldn’t have put it any better myself.

As one of the top 25% in the CG I felt this way. And still do in some ways. But I'm just about over it. Worst case sinario (for me) is to suck it up. No real harm done, it's just a game, wasted a few extra hours grinding. Etc. Etc. All I learned from this is that FDev have lost a little trust from me (Maybe others, I can't speak for others) and I'll be vary weary of the next CG prizes. I know myself I'll not be putting much, if any effort into the next one & any future ones if FDev can't keep their word and give in to the whiners, unless it's a nice new juicy shiny, lol.

To me it's not healthy nor worth busting a blood vessel over.

The only way I see forward from this for FDev (Are you listening, FDev) is to give the special prize to all participants of the CG and keep the prize tiers to "credits only" and maybe some decals.
