First of all thanks for the reply ;) Personally I had really little time on first week and trying to rush to reach tier VI to get the Myoko missions I was already in a hurry, so I expected the event's missions to be in events section and thought of a bug of mine at the very start, only when I got a little more time at the end of the week I've took time to search anywhere ingame and not finding anything I've gone to the website and from there found the Project R website (when I saw the "join" button I was really surprised)... Since I want to actually play a game I have to admit I don't follow much the site or forum (started posting after the event were finished and reading it some day before the end to understand if it would have ended the 24th as I thought or at 10m starting to fear my loss of any chance), so my mistake to not use much the socials behind the game or not thinking about finding the event outside of the game (something I didn't think anybody would do nowaday). WG was clearly not thinking about delivering a huge number of those ships, so they have done a great job listening to players and putting in the 260 threshold, my only complain is that ending so soon we got 57 less pearls obtainable, keeping out of the chance to "earn" the ship even dedicated player if they only joined 1 week later. And that was avoidable by just making "last chance" missions on the last weekend (weekly reset sooner) or keeping the event till 24th, so a really easy fix to avoid the frustration of a lot of unlucky or busy players. A lot more of the players who joined the event would have gained the ship and the lottery would have probably been between less players also, since a lot of those 12k players where probably less then 57 pearls away from 260, so everyone would have been happier... Well these are my 2 cent on the matter and my personal opinion of course.

And for those in that range that did not get luck or at least for those really near 260 stopped only 'cause of the absence of last reset, will there be any chance to have at least a big discount on it when she'll arrive to the shop? Thanks for your answers anyway

I've taken a little revenge already, 3 of them sank at the very first battle today u.u I'll focus them till I get one myself I think xDPS: I was on a BB xD

WG I have a little suggestion, hoping you read this... Can you keep on the lottery with every Kamikaze R that is sold? I see many players that received it and are not interested in keeping it for one reason or another... can you somehow keep track of the ones actually sold and give them to who didn't received one and would probably appreciate it better?

Not only yours... 236 pearls and no luck... highly disappointed, just for one day or even less time...

If you could donate exactly half of them to me, I'd have the ship by now :S Really the most frustrating end of an otherwise enjoyable event

IMHO I think they should keep this option but also make sure every player that joins the event in a reasonable time has the chance to win without pure luck and this time that was not the case. Nowaday, to think you have to click on a website to join and follow an event and that there's no indication whatsoever of that event in game is just ridiculuos (and no, you can't say the image on launcher is enough because a lot of player seeing an event on launcher will just launch the game to learn what to do ingame and will feel like they're missing something when they see nothing in events section). There are only two possibilities in my opinion, at WG they've made a really bad and stupid choice (it can happen) or they're really smart and found a way to give less ships since more player wouldn't get how to join soon enough. Next error in my opinion is that those last 57 pearls from the last week reset should have been obtainable anyway by making the event last till the end of time or giving more missions in the end when they realized there was the possibility to finish before the reset excluding a lot of late comers. Personally I found out how to join the event on the last days of the first week since I had really little free time because of exams, so I did join in the end of the week but had no time to do all missions. When I realized I could reach 260 anyway thanks to the last reset I was happy, but being stuck at 236 pearls even if I play a lot every evening if I can, since I like the game so far, only because of how weekly missions work and then seeing the possibility to win taken away with no compensation whatsoever has made me feel all my effort had actually been a waste of time. They could have managed the event WAY BETTER with really LITTLE EFFORT: better advertisement, making possible to join and follow the event from ingame or even just putting a fixed amount of pearls obtainable anytime instead of making a race against time for everyone that joined later for any reason only to feel powerless in the end. Or just making last-minute missions in the last weekend to give the opportunity to get the last few pearls... I've read posts of people stuck at 258 pearls for example... I don't know if they at least won the lottery but imagine the frustration if not. Considering the way it has been managed this event I find it the most frustrating experience I've ever had on any online game so far, mostly because of how easly avoidable this frustration was if WG managed better the event... Kind of a fun experience for some time so a really nice event per se, I liked the idea and develop with the only BIG exceptions I mentioned above that totally ruined the experience to me at the very end. And for those wondering, yes I'm actually just a really deluded player since I didn't even win the lottery and the ship was all I was caring for from the event. So those 14 pearls and the impossibility to get them just due to WG choices are really pissing me off. Sorry for long post or not perfect english, anyway more than a casual rant I'd like to consider this post more a constructive critique. PS: I hope at least the kamikaze R will be obtainable in the shop and with a HUGE discount for those that were on the lottery or really close to 260 pearls, I would consider buying it and passing over this frustration if that will be the case, kind of a "forgive us" from WG (even if they're undoubtedly making a good work with the game itself, I really like WG, only the marketing I don't always like as much xD)
