    With the Hunt ending on the 22nd I fear that a new cover release will happen over Christmas. Please do not do this. Many of us will be spending time with family and would rather not be looking at the clock to run an event. Wait until after Christmas.

    We're due a new 5*, so I'm pulling for that being the Thursday release.

    Completely agree and quote your post.
    Last year was too painful with Venom Bomb and the release of a new character on Xmas Eve. But we had also a new character's release on Thanksgiving (Ghost Rider and HoD) while this year the new relese has been postponed to the following week....So we can only hope that the new release will be after Xmas between december 26 and 30 icon_e_smile.gif

    Are we asking too much? Please let us have our family holiday icon_e_wink.gif

    Thank You icon_razz.gif

    Brigby, the Sneak Peek is getting bloated. If it's not a policy to keep the information, would you please delete information that has expired (events, boosted characters)?

    It's not bloated enough.. where is the info on Thanos?!

    Brigby could hide the expired events. This way the information is still available for historical purposes. I work in HR, we don't like deleting stuff lol

    I expect Thanos event info should show up in a couple days, and hopefully show everything up to a couple days after the weekend. Events aren't supposed to start until Thursday, so it wouldn't be surprising if the site didn't update info until Wednesday.

    I've gone ahead and hidden older content in order to de-clutter the post. I've also included more information regarding Thanos. Thanks for the great ideas, you two!

    *(12/18/16) Brigby - Added link to Thanos article, and condensed post by hiding content that's a week old or longer

    What is a family holiday for some is extra free time for others. I enjoy having the events on holidays since I generally have a little more free time from work to play during.

    Will the classic Legendary Token finally be split into two, bringing us away from infinitesimally small chances of pulling 5*?

    WHAAATTTT??? You still have cumulative 15% chance of drawing A 5 star.png

    Sure your chances of pulling a specific 5 star.png are.............

    Hey old stuff is hidden. That actually makes a lot of sense for a historical account of events. Cool! Keep up the great job Brigby!

    Do we know which event is after The Hunt?
    Because...I really need that Ghost Rider green in progression, and if it's a non-standard PvE I might cry...

    There's no place to discuss 3 thanos but could you guys just change those numbers before releasing him on that passive.

    Otherwise why even roster him.

    Currently if he's ever the featured for a enemy of the state 3 star wave node, he'd kill your team before it's over, 3 star team and under.

    Fortunately he's a villain. Currently no story event in which villains are featured (Prodigal Sun, Simulator, Gauntlet, Deadpool vs MPQ) has wave nodes.

    Well then he's just really bad. icon_lol.gif

    Didn't realize that the characters boosted were based on whether they were heros or villains, but then again i skip past just about all dialogue.

    Brigby, can we get an update to the Weekly Buffs section today (for the week starting this Thursday, 12/22)?

    And could you verify with Demiurge if the weekly buffs will apply to the Galactus Hungers event that starts Thursday? Boss events usually have their own boosted lists... if it does differ and we can get the buffed character list for Galactus in advance too that would be awesome.
