I think the part that annoyed everyone in Syrtis the most was that we got all these fucking messages on the screen, "Kailer vs Chilko! woohoo so much fun!" - too bad we were missing it...
But okey, of course shit happens, servers will crash etc, nothing out of the ordinary.
The announcement for the time change btw found most of us already in-game so we missed it on the forums. Would have been nice if someone could log in on Horus at 9pm GMT and say "Hey guys, event is postponed for 2h, sorry for the inconvinience, please do not reply to this in-game announcement, Regards" or smth like that
On the actual event:
Too damn short! Moaarrrr
I liked the idea of super-sized generals leading the army. Having a different color also helps, both in the name and in realm chat. (and the status of a dev...) Probably less in Syrtis than in other realms, Syrtis tends to be a bit more anarchist, we follow noone
Maybe this could be some sort of new feature? Elected leaders for 1 week or so, getting different color in realm chat, the ability to make global announcements (only for the realm to see them though). Would be nice.
Would be nice to close it off with a nice global chat and docks teleporting to central island, just for a bit
