If you lay out any concerns, I will respond to them. Just to re-iterate what has already been discussed:
Disappearing targets lag is Kappa-specific according to @Aingar which means it shouldn't be an issue elsewhere. The weekend won't have PvE so it's fine for NPCs to be disabled.
The complexity of the event is due to the need to continue working through story beats. It is reduced due to only half the factions being allowed on each day of the weekend.
Additional faction rewards (namely cloaks) are available and more are possible based on suggestions.
Now let me ask you a question: are you actually interested in having a normal discussion or are you going to continue venting?

If you want to be lazy and just skip through what could otherwise be two well thought out events then you may as well not run the event at all. You're not doing anyone a service by trying to skip through a backlog as fast as possible, which will absolutely result in problems and oversights, the likes of which will see far more people than just me picketing you to adopt a degree of sense thereafter.
Call it venting if you want, it won't change the fact you're going about this the wrong way and are going to cause scheduling and coordination issues for multiple factions by being utterly not interested in having two dedicated events.
That's not just lazy, it's insulting. Are we as the concerned factions not entitled to the same treatment as all the others that received events before us?
Even if you want to pretend that we are, you've got nothing to show for it.
Could you grant the Wild ID involved temporary techexempt for Liberty Lawful ships and weapons so we don't have to fly eagles? You can just specify that they are limited to the event area if that's a concern.

I'm going to temporarily lock this thread while we review feedback. Should be business as normal by this evening. The ongoing event configs will be unaffected in the meantime.
A new event restart EventWendigo had been added, teasing the release of another Wild faction: The Wendigos - a combination of Bretonia and Liberty infected! It is now included in the list of restarts in the main post.
The Wendigo ID is incompatible with ALL missiles, ALL mines, ALL wild hybrid class 1 weaponry, and the.. Lunablast class 1?
Deluge Class 4
Railgun Class 4
Mini Razor Class 4
Sunslayer Class 4
Starkiller Class 4
Hellfire Rocket Pod Class 4
I assume the torpedo and bomb options are also restricted.
And all codeguns.
Did you copy paste the Nomad ID without realizing the Wendigo are Wild, which use human/nomad hybrid technology, and failed to add anything other than Liberty navy cell to it?
