Two days of roughly two-weeks event has passed and as we were gathing at server prime-time-ish event windows, the activity wasn't as much as pleasing. People still mostly make runs for hauling at times when there's less chances to have an encounter with the "opposing" playerbase and that is not satisfying for anyone except traders. Not to mention, how bad the situation with powertrading is, rememvering shitposts here from earlier.
I think, having it all scheduled would make the whole event more accessible AND fun, as I imagine people would actually gather big convoys and big ambushes for them. Just make it someting like from 17 or 18 UTC and last for several hours as I believe most of the players are able to log in AND be interested in logging in because of assurance, that thier desired encounter is real enough and there's no need to float around for an hour to meet a single ship that's happy to die and relog on another char. That is all for purpose of everyone could take part in all the fuzz and/or respawn from previous encounters. Wrap up the playerbase and do not stretch it, IMHO.
The point of the separate timeslots is to give people a chance to play at various times during the day, especially if they are in a different timezone. Based on the config thus far, people are hauling during every available timeslot, so if you log during active hours, you will see someone. However, I understand that you're frustrated and will take this feedback in consideration when designing the next trade event. For this one, I would need to see more data to make any major changes, and the data so far looks satisfactory.
By the way, if you think someone is dying and re-logging on another char within an hour and then going through the same systems, report them for breaking 2.2. The event has quite a bottleneck for trade, so if you cover the right areas, you'll always have a shot at catching them.

Hey guys, I noticed a potential issue with the config, which we're currently looking into. In the meantime, please make sure you're delivering during active hours (3-5 & 9-11 am and pm). Any deliveries logged outside of these hours will forfeit the bonus, as that is not an intended part of the event set-up.
You can still attempt those deliveries (e.g. because that's when you have time to play), but you will only receive the non-config profits, even if we have to remove the money manually post-hoc.

The problem has been identified and fixed as of this latest restart, happy hauling.

Since this event is almost at an end, I'd like to thank the following people in advance for participating:
@Toaster
@NBK
@Mort
@"Ktulha pervie"
@kotyafffsky
@Malacat
@Comfort.Zone
@HussarCorsair
@mijuu09
@BillyMontana
@h0lar
@Firb
@Deity
@Jazzi
Each of you, in one way or another, has helped the common cause. Without you, it would be unlikely that the Order would have been able to do anything at this event. Let anyone and anything say about all of us, but we did our job at this event. It was hard, it was harmful to one's health, it was tedious, sometimes very boring, but we found solutions and managed to dilute our stay in Theta even in the most boring periods of time.
I hope this isn't the last time we meet, and that we pull off some daring adventure again!
