    I’ll hope you are wrong. I want them to shame us. Give a tickle to my balls please I really like being dunked on.

    I agree, giving the rewards anyway like they did before 'rewarding effort' just makes you try even less. As much as I like the rewards of a stone I have the same opinion as I did with the guardians grind. After 8 years playing I'm not changing my play style to grind, I've done my time. The noobs can do it.

    Given your refusal to change your play style, it doesn't seem as if anything they do will actually make you try less. You're already not trying at all.

    Now I'm not pessimistic by nature but, personally, I don't think we are going to make it.

    We’re so far from the objective it’s actually kind of funny. I’ll miss those rewards though.

    The timing for when this challenge dropped really sucked. I genuinely wonder how much further we would be if some people like me didn't rush to finish the GotG event before puzzle gauntlet ended.

    I hope the data will help to make future challenges more realistic.

    A 48 hr sub also doesn't help.

    Fun challenge. I will gladly take any free rewards.
    One recommendation would be to run another no pressure PvE style event in parallel. I was not willing to sacrifice placement for the rewards offered.

    It wasn't a "typical" week for a few reasons:

    • coming off a grindy challenge
    • 48 hour sub in PvE
    • Mother's day weekend in the USA

    Hoping for a merciful extension of a few days.

    If you enjoyed Breath of the Wild, then absolutely 100%

    334/500M

    we need a magik 50% increase to our number of fired abilities very soon to succeed. I dont see it happening

    Instead maybe we can ask for a very soon 50% increase of Magik fired abilities numbers, so she can be successful ?

    @IceIX any chance you guys give us a few more days for this?
    After all most of us are working people, and I for sure can tell my boss would not be fine with me playing during work hours…

    When is Zelda never not worth it?

    It's still going up, but the percentage doesn't align with the number.

    Edit - perhaps we ended on 337.1m (67.42% of 500m)?

    I dunno, we got a bunch of free stuff for doing nothing. Seems to me that we won!

    Depends if you look at the half full or half empty bucket. Some people will see only the "missed opportunity", others will see a bunch of free stuff, and both are right, but with a different view on events.
    (and a little minority will see a confirmation bias of devs not good at maths)

    I will definitely ask next Q&A about their intent on this event. Was the goal to taunt players by showing an inf stone only to not give it?

    It's showing 68.33% now. Still not correct math for 384.1/500, but higher than your number from a couple hours ago.
    Who knows...???
