Hi Everyone,

With the recent issues revolving around Coalition Rewards, the developers over at Hibernum would like to inform the community of a schedule change while they investigate these issues.
We are aware of a major issue involving coalition rewards. The development team is working around the clock to fix the issue as quickly as possible. In the meantime, we unfortunately had to cancel the Nodes of Power event that was going to run on May 3rd. The event will be rescheduled once the issue is fixed.

In its stead, we have scheduled Terrors in the Shadows. This very highly popular event from the Shadows over Innistrad set makes its comeback for one week only!
Thanks for your patience and understanding!

    Does that mean SOI booster packs and SOI rare for the rewards?

    Thanks for the announcement, @brigby
    I don't get why it's necessary to use the word "unfortunately" when you're doing something the community demands for a while - a change in the boring event plan? ;) love it.
    I really hope to see SOI rewards for the event!

    Ooh. I'd love another crack at avacyn's instead of RatC this weekend. And SOI packs would be nice too!

    Let's hope for more bugs then!

    My guess is they'll take the time to vastly reduce the prizes from old ****, but not bother fixing the currently broken tiebreaker system.

    Please don't quote me out of the context if more bugs occur as it might shine a bad light on me :-D

    The irony was strong in my post.. Mostly because of the excitement to face a new(ish) event. Hope to see something like this in the future.. Maybe one week in a month with events from older sets?

    @Laeuftbeidir

    My apologies. I removed it because I didn't want to seem like I was telling Sarahschmara not to enjoy the SOI events, however did not realize the context placed on yours when her quote was removed.

    SOI prizes would be fantastic. Here's hoping, but not holding my breath. 

    Glad they postponed the coalition event.

    There's usually one soi pack in the Terrors progression rewards.

    Look at us, fetching the smallest bone ever thrown and smiling. @Brigby could you please in your role as the ever great messenger tell the gods above how hungry the plebs are for a bit of change in the event structure? Let us play something else until Amokhnet release - old goodies, I mean anything really just not another RatC.

    I mean in my coalition we're retelling old stories about Avacyn like war veterans just to keep that experience alive.

    I would also welcome playing Avacyn's Madness again. Only got to play it in my days of middling silverness and the last few bosses were a real challenge for me. I was really stoked the first time I beat Avacyn herself.

    I'd be curious to see how much easier it has become now that my collection of powerful cards has significantly grown.

    Would be cool to see how much we've powered up since that event was run.  I wonder how a fully energized Tezz 2 would match up against Avacyn.

    It's funny how we all react differently to power creep, isn't it? Personally, I weep into my pillow over the future of the game.
