IF this is announced 24 hours before the event starts, then players will fill their ships and send them to the selling points and wait... ONCE you announce the start, then they will sell all their cargo for the new price, and gain a great advantage, then maybe go join the event...

Think about a way to prevent such things from happening, and best of luck dude, Nice stamina hahaha, You coming back to disco locked and loaded

if possible, try to keep track of people actually contributing instead of just giving rewards to chodes who wait until the last zeptosecond to alphastrike a pvp target for example

• Prison liner escorts, can be done in all houses with lawfuls and unlawfuls logging to either protect or take out the liner. Maybe bump the price of (event?)prisoners so that if the liner goes down both sides can try to 'salvage' some significant profits by selling at prisons or unlawful bases.
  
• NPC invasion events, oldie but a goodie. Be it Nomad, Cultist or maybe even house forces in a border skirmish that doesn't escalate into war.
  
• A twist on the terrorist one; a suspected infected ship is heading to the location of a political target, local intelligence factions catch wind, declare it a criminal vessel and try to intercept.
  

• The Insurgency tries to protect evacuation ships while the Navy tries to take them down
  
• Luxery Liner Barbados gets accused of harboring Insurgency staff and must try to smuggle x amount of event commodity off the station before the event is over or risk getting caught (maybe more suited for a 'proper' event given duration)
  
• Stuff seems to be planned to go down in the Omicrons as well but little actually reflects it currently, some extra Nomad based events in Minor, or conflict between the Corsairs and Outcasts would go a long way.
