[Poll] Rerun event: Clash of the Titans

[Markam]

Let's be honest, both sides of the argument have valid points, and the poll count is fairly even (okay, its a bit on the redo side). No matter what decision is taken there will be annoyed people, I voted for a redo to be honest, but I think there are other options. Also, I think it is important to take the lessons learned from the first two events to improve the quality of events, and I for one would like to share my appreciation for the effort being made for these events, the alternative would be much easier a path for them to take (just let the devs do as they will with regards to the story).

As for this event, we can either follow the poll result and simply redo the event. Or, we can call it a draw, and edit the text of the GRN victory result so its a bit more Council favored.

i.e, Both destroyed but Council retains control of the system and a different council Battleship shows up in a defensive posture & the system is secured by Council, though the threat to IDF is diminished somewhat.

Or possibly as a third option, we can forget the event ever took place, and simply let the devs decide the course of the story.

As for future events, I suggest that a draw condition is set in advance, with conditions for its use, such as a close victory for either side or as is the case for the first two events, unforeseen circumstances causing one side to be favored.

Also, for those who are calling for Blue message events, I think this shows a lack of imagination. I think with the combined minds on discovery we can think of something better.

Edit:
One thing I would like to suggest is that events be mirrored when possible to avoid defender/attacker bias. For example in the running the gauntlet event, the attackers were clearly at an advantage in such a scenario, so a similar event should be done with the sides flipped.
