    The event is about to end and, judging from the leaderboard and comparing it to the last rotgp, I would say that this event has been more generous with some players than to others.
    What's the point of running a coalition event if the event scores are biased?
    What's the point of a leaderboard at all?
    I understand the "let's continue" position as well: knowing the problems is important, a little reward is better than nothing, but, to me, a coalition event is a competition and, if the scores are decided by bugs and errors, that defies the sense of competing.
    After this mess I hope there will be a leaderboard reset in favor, maybe, of a seasonal leaderboard or anything else you want. 
    Also, I hope for the next mass outage (because it will happen) that a cleaner solution will be applied

    Let it continue but only with progression rewards. 

    COMPLETELY cancel the coalition side, that's the bit that is the least fair and gives no useful information for fixing things.

    Let the event play through, but give everyone 1st place prizes. They did it before and it seemed to work well. The MC and Jewels are not finite resources, and if everyone gets them the entire player base is lifted together. Players get frustrated when that happens, they give up a little of each weekend for this game. We are dedicated and we should be compensated for the Tiny kitty we put up with from time to time.

    I'm on the pull the plug train. I play in a coalition with very high scoring requirements. I missed something like 100 points from bugs. Both sww, and the mysterious evaporating points. I still squeaked through, but if I'm going to bomb an event, I'd really prefer it be my fault . At the very least, we should be well compensated. The last oopsie gave us 250 runes. That's just rude.
