When will the final results be published for this event?

I have tried to find out the final results but alas nothing has been posted regarding where folks finished and I know some of those people are mighty tired from running it haha! ;-)

When the results match CCP's expectations.

So you better keep running it.

The isk I made, the fun I had creating my traveling Orca circus, the new parts of new Eden I explored, and the random souls I met who helped along the way were all worth it.

He means I'm never getting back the few seconds it took me to type that useless reply; he's not talking about time spent running the event. Personally I ignored the event, but yeah it probably was worth it and "fun" for a lot of people, including those who ridiculed the Vehement prices on Reddit and on these forums (it was probably days worth of popcorn content for them).

(alteration just in case it applies...)

But I don't think we can continue running it, right? We can fly through space to our saved spots, weeping in loneliness for Snakes and Wings, but no more copper, silver or gold will be coming our way...

Seriously, I am unsure why it's taking so long to publish a list of 10 names and their points. I understand theres a billion things going on in the CCP offices and people have lives and stuff, but not sure of any competitive event where they sit on the results for several days.

Summer holiday season. It only lasts a short time up there.

It was fun for the people who are content with running lvl4 missions for years.

While the most likely reason, it makes for a poor excuse. It's not like they didn't see the holidays coming and had full control over the event scheduling P

One could say: they knew it long ago that they will be 'on summer vacation' when the Event finishes. They could move the Event forward or backward to achieve better time to work on it.

Currently it looks more like the dev who should have worked on it left the company.... And not one other person knows enough about the Event. Shocked

I did the event for a while but when it started to feel like I grind I went back to my normal objectives... learning more and moving the Corp to Null Sec which has been a lot more fun.

I did ½ hour of ratting in Null and pulled down almost 30 million while having a lot of fun figuring out how to fight with my now blaster fit ship against ROUS's. I think learning new stuff is way more fun than grinding. The bigger ISK haul is nicer as well.

I'm disappointed that the rats killed raised security standings. Nothing says carebear like a +5.0 sec standing. I need to go pod some people to get my standings back where they belong.

That would make a change now, wouldn't it? I am hoping to be #10, the anticipation of the results is palpable, but if CCP have holidays then I hope they enjoy it :) Maybe it'll be announced on the o7 show, fingers crossed.
