    No, not The Elderspark again! That event cost us two players last time. Even with the recharge time increased from 6 to 8 hours, it will still be a horrible event. Can you also change the starting charges from 2 to 1, please?

    Hmm good question! I'll ping the rest of our team to inquire about that.

    @Brigby: FoE event ends today. According to the above schedule, it should run until and including Saturday. I still have a few nodes left to play, which I won't be able to in the last few hours that are remaining.

    Was anyone able to complete holiday Showdown? I joined at the beginning and have no losses, but with the 8 hour charge time for fight credits, I am only going to manage half of the event. Maybe it's just me, but it seems like a terrible format regardless for people that celebrate Christmas. Opinions?

    Now, you see, what I could do is talk about how I communicated this to customer services only to be told I was wrong and didn’t know how the game worked- but I don’t think I’m allowed to discuss conversations had with them here.
