So we going to get any summer event, it was said there'll be many events now that we have event manager? How's looking with that? Some duel event would be cool in summer or something like that ...

Why are events always played on some speed servers, which take 14 days and require you to be online almost 24/7 or cheat somehow if you want to have chances to win some prizes?

How about event on normal speed server which would run for 1 year, with only basic sets (those available in shops), with no tomobolas and sales? You could make it so you can play it only if you have active premium to avoid too many multies (without premium you have 0 energy and speed is terribly slow), you could have prizes for people in all major categories (Adventures should be seperated from other worlds like on beta) and in addition to that you could also have monthly rewards for people that made most progress in category, so people wouldn't stop trying after few months if they would have no chances to be in prized rank at end of server ... such a server would be fun in my opinion, what do others think?

We did have the no-speed event a while back (International Classic Speed Event 2021). That was actually a lot of fun because you had to plan out your routes, upgrade your Quarter Horses, etc. No Premium Speed, no tombula... It was only for a month, though.

Your idea of a year-long event, with mini-prizes along the way and a grander prize at the end, could be fun. An easy test could be held on .TS1 for a month, with each week drawing a mini-prize.

Well there could be some aditional prizes, for example, who recieves achivement 1st gets some bonds or something ... there's much that can be done on longer servers, because this speed servers are short and you need ALOT of time to compete in them, while on this normal speed worlds you can play your game at your pace and still compete for different prizes, also in my point of view such a world would be very active and we'd have some interesting ff's ... or better to say, everyone could find something for them on such a world, unlike speed server where if you don't play hours/day you got nothing to do there.

I’m a big advocate of using a long “idle” style* event world as a test platform for identifying the best Fort Battle cap and building level settings for balanced battles under different Meta’s (eg we know a number of j.bull sets will be completed/upgrade in three weeks, would be nice to see in advance how much that shifts the meta. Likewise, a lot more are going to be completed and upgraded in December.

*where awards are predominantly about just logging in daily with enough activity to gather an average of ~25 bonds per day, but could also have some pseudorandomly chosen secret achievements where the nth person to get it gets an award)

Is there any chance to have another world speed event in the next period? :-D
What do you mean by "next period" ?
Yes, there will be another "speed event" in the not too distant future, but we do tend to leave at lest a month or so between such events.
