Anyone else sort of underwhelmed by the Birdsong giveaways? I thought it was super-great last time, but the Krogmo stuff...I couldn't care less about them. Maybe if they offered a number of coins instead of a booster. I imagine it's not tradeable, right?

The low count of winners per hour is what makes it underwhelming. OOO advertises something that encourages a peak of users online, a lot of people won't get anything.

Also, get online, BigFootM. I still have my stash of recipes to sell you D: .

honestly, I think it should be 2 auctions, at 6PM and 6AM PST, 10 winners each, and one draw at 12PM PST for the "grand prize".

there'd only be 3 peak usage times instead of all day. Unless they're getting paid by the players signed on...then I'd say CARRY ON.

pfffft I dunno. It would explain a lot of the latest updates, though the AFK one was more to public outcry, I think. Blast Network is about as divorced from SPiral Knights and CE expenditure as it could be, but it's more active bodies on the server.

Forgot that BN kept you in

Forgot that BN kept you in the lottery runnings. Good call there. >_>
It's supposed to balance those power surges that basicaly create double crowns. The problem is, the lottery dosen't even make up for a third of the power surge. I'm not saying remove surges, but lotteries need some beef. Or make it a crown sink and make people buy tickets.
