Any other notes/comments:  This is not supposed to be a gambling game, in fact there are strict laws regulating gambling here and I highly doubt mobage is in compliance, even though I'm fairly certain that this game now qualifies as online gambling. Since the game does not pay out real money, I don't think it qualifies as gambling. Just a bad deal that's set up in such a way to drive impulse buys and part fools from their money (I'm not trying to offend those of you who do shell out $20 or more per event; I just think that's exactly how Mobage sees you). I pay for tier 1 of the bridge and no farther. It's the best bang-for-buck deal in this rigged setup.

Anyway.. Final rank: 9xxx (yay one-half of an R4 reward, that's totally useless)

Final score: 1.5 mil

Deck strength: 7k, 9k and 8k

Money spent: 0

Mobacoins: 100 - Kup alt from tier 1 bridge.

Medals: hundreds cashed in so far and a big fat nothing out of them.

Liked: Honestly? Nothing this time. I thought this event was far inferior to the last two. I had no interest in the Sharkticon reward at the 7500 tier and knew I couldn't make the 3750 tier, so I largely sat out the first couple of days. Gameplay during the event was much worse than last time.

Disliked: I'd go so far as to say Mobage intentionally crippled the help system this time around to try & drive cube spending. Combined with no X1 or X2 bosses, and the result was there were long stretches of time where the queue sat empty. I really think the 10X raid cards should go away because they drive pay-to-win.
