I.E.: I was next to Kure with a load of XR when the 1st increment ended and the 2nd increment started. When I sold, I didn't get the bonus.
Yep. By design. Be mindful of when you fly and account for delays.
What kind of design is this? If someone still hasn’t figured it out , this is a 30 year old video game, not a job. But well, schoolaged kids are on summerbreak and can sit at the computer 24/7. For someone with a job and a family, it's really difficult to follow this ridiculous schedule that's supposedly meant for an official event.
Event is setup for peak times in various parts of the world. If it was setup for 24 hour bonuses, people would just wait until low pop hours and print free money, and BIG money at that. 1250 value per Xeno Relic for Core side is insane.
To have that for 24 hours a day, we may as well bring back the Zoner Pilot Trade and PvE event back.
1 Hour Increments mean:
- 1 x Barge Trip
- 4 x 3.6Ker Trips
- 3 x 5Ker Trips
That's gating the event.
1x barge trip - Where do you see in the shipping factions the allowance of a Barge?
3x 5ker - See above.
4x 3.6ker Trips - I'll refer you to the post of mine you quoted:

"Oh but I want my 24 hours a day event for my powertrading braincell! Please let me have it!!!!" - No Thank You. Pointless to give full access all the time. Sure, it cuts out some people, but that isn't the intention. the intention is to stop those who would ordinarily do all their shipping in quiet hours and have no interference during it. Go do it during the windows, and be happy you get to make more money than sense hauling ass across like 6 to 10 systems.
This event's CSU during these times is quite literally the highest I've ever seen it. Setup like 5 ships, ready for the runs and then move them back through the non-event hours (or JD back with a beacon in some cases). It don't take a genius to work out why the event is locked behind specific times. Two hours trading, three hours mining seems like a nice bonus for the people, so that everyone gets a chance to do everything if they want to.
Besides, where the hell are you gonna find the time to supply your PoB with relics if your shipping 24/7 for the duration?
