Another random point post, because I am too lazy to quote multiple people:

1. While I hope they compensate folks for the outage yesterday, I don't expect anything. I haven't even seen them officially admit there was a FUBAR moment. Only seen the CS rep "whoops, our bad" email reaction.

2. Kind of liked the outage, it brought many of us together in chat. Think that was the first time I have ever seen 15/16 people in live chat. Was kind of fun chatting with new folks.

3.Yes, bosses are loosely connected to your accumulated points. Don't ask me for specifics, but after a certain threshold, you'll almost never see a Trailblazer, and the ones you will see with be L7 or ??, or L8/L9 later in the week. Same will happen with Mirage when the other 2 bosses come out. The lower point bosses are slowly phased out and rightfully so. Would be annoying as hell to be 2-5 million points in and a 15 point Trailblazer is your boss encounter. lol

4. Some folks have fast devices, some folks just have time to spend, or money. Me, personally, I ended last night at just over a million points. I have nothing special, a basic Samsung 4G LTE phone, barely functioning WiFi, I'm single, and I was aiming to stockpile some EC (pulled down 150 before I went to bed). Without point rewards to aim for, EC was my only motivation, so 1 million is less than what I usually end day one at.

5. Fuck these changes. No point rewards and a huge increase in medal cost for rubies? AND no ruby medals from points until 5 million+. That is game changing. Never should have pushed all of it during the same event. Stuff like that you gradually put in, let folks get used to it slowly. Not rewrite an entire event in one swipe. God forbid they have L8/L9 changes planned as well and ruby rewards become out of reach for the average player completely.
