I read through your story thread and nowhere does it explain how you know about blueprints being there.

A lucky guess that will be correct? Highly unlikely.
You love to write "Go read the thread" to all some who ask something you, but once I do, there is very little legit reasoning there.
I don't want to discourage you from events in general, as AFC events usually were fun and well accepted by participants in the past. But this event is different, it has a losing side, it has a winning side and AFC comes out with end-result that is set in stone by the looks of it. It serves your personal agenda more than it serves community. You might not agree with me, but dozen other comments should be confirmation that people don't want to see these kinds of events where losers/antagonists are getting shafted while organizers are getting rewards.
It's safe to say that the information about the Arch is open to collect and learn about. It's safe for a character to assume that becasue the station acted as a vault and was "closed off" for a long time, it would contain many secrets inside. My character does not need to have 100% proof in order to do his actions. He can just as well make educated guesses based on history.
The event has no losers or winners. I disagree with you that it has losers or winners. The things gained with be fun, RP, activity, further interactions, and all that great stuff. The only thing you have a problem with is that AFC will get a blueprint. Let me point out to you that that blueprint will still have a long way to go before it turns into something meaningful.
AFC basically "wins" continuation of our RP. That's our "winnings". Order/BD are "winning" with nomad research. Wilde have chosen to "win" with activity and pews. (I did mention they can do something but they didn't choose anything when we spoke about it).
What is your problem? This is not the first event that has a "fixed" ending. Frankly, with this event it actually HAD to have a "fixed" ending in order for people to agree to it in the chat. AFC is involving many factions into the event. I had no choice but to make it as neutral as an ending as I wish. In addition, I wouldn't be doing this event if I'd get nothing of use out of it. It's too much of a pain in my side to deal with all these people and the community's backlash and NOT ask for a little something in return.
So just curious as to why you care, also. What harm does it do to you or to anyone for that matter? Why are you wasting your time?
oh but i guess you just crave the drama
PS: SRPs serve the person's agenda while giving back to the community activity and RP
if you have a problem with this, you have a problem with a lot of other things, mate
