Mining CG Abres' Mineral Misery needs serious adjustment on tiers.

CG has been active almost 2 full days now and total osmium mined by almost 300 cmdrs is bit over 5000 tonnes.
Tier 1 seems to be 1 million tonnes? (or something similar quite unrealistic us to ever achieve)
This is not Trading CG. We have only one commodity which has to be mined, rough estimate for any commander to mine osmium is few tens of tonnes per hour at best.
On the same time frame one hauls commodities easily 100 times more.
So tiers should be adjusted compared to normal trading CG by dividing tiers by 100 fold, give or take.
Then first tier would end up being 10 000 tonnes and etc....

Please adjust tiers quickly or first mining CG goes for total waste with nothing achieved.

Yeah, the tier levels for this community goal were poorly thought out. Perhaps there might be better luck getting this looked at posting in the bug reporting forum?

Agreed. It's insanely high for mining a rare metal. We haven't even progressed 5% of tier 1. judging by the markers.

Roughly, at the current rate of collection, it would take these 300 CMDRs about 1 year and 4 months to reach tier one.

With that much time and work, they better give some insane rewards;p lol

still, with powerplay, and everyone fighting and working on their factions, a mining mission like this is not going to get many players. Hell, with 2000 players it's still a horrible tier level.

The last metal trading CG was for about 3 weeks and only managed tier 5 out of 8 so if this mining CG is just one week then it should be more like 1/500 of the amounts stated.

It seems that the limits have not been adjusted to allow for Power Play; before PP anybody and everybody was available for a CG but now only unaligned and player aligned to the party hosting the CG are likely to participate which at a stroke reduces the player pool by 50% to 90% so the tier levels should be adjusted for that as well.

Taking the reduced player pool, the length of the CG and the speed at which Osmium can be mined I'd say the tiers are 3 orders of magnitude too high.

Yes true, since PP went active, CG's been having way more less participants compared to pre PP.

I hope FD can do something for this one...pretty sad to see how this first mining CG turned out. Pretty sad for mining which is already the least popular activity among players, and is by no mean getting more popularity with this event.


I also hope the next one will happen in a system with many High-Intensity RESs in a pristine metallic ring...you know, to have a lot of players gathering at the same place (that's the main goal of a CG, no?) and point to the right direction players inexperienced with mining....

5000t, and we have not even got a Pixel
At least my 75t gets me top 5% of Zip

Well, will you even get a reward, other than pride, if tier 1 is not reached..?

You, me and 14 others make up that Top 5% FalconFly.
Currently on 102t and the Top 5% crossover happened between 80t and 85t.
The 3 nights I've been at it have been good practice, because I got 2MCr of various metals this evening for 2.5 hours effort.

As you've pointed out though, the scale hasn't budged in the slightest.

My bug report post about it is here if you want to help wade in. :)

1 day left and we're at 50% of T1 with currently a bit over 20k tons delivered, we either really need a bump in the remaining time or a "gold" rush...
