A few things.

We want to do a sidearm event, similar to the Expert Challenge. However first we want to do a balance pass on all the sidearms (something something SMG). So there will be a bit of a break between now and then, and we have something else planned for in between.

Additionally, myself and CCP Rattati will likely sit down at some point to go over the previous event and think of some ways to improve it for everyone. I have some ideas, but I want to bounce them off CCP Rattati first.

Lastly, it's Destructive Data Mining

This event would have been good with a participatory part, something like:
Do [insert number] kills with [insert weapon] to win 1 copy of the officer [same kind of weapon] when it will created.
You can win only 1 weapon per type.

It's plain and simple, people would have no doubt, tryhards would play to name the weapon, the rest of normal players would play to win the rewards.

Sounds good but you have to think that most people will not want to do an event that you only get 1 copy of something from, its not worth the isk spent to try get rewards for only 1.

Please stop with this kind of events and give us a event where everyone can play, enjoy and get a reward when it ends.

Well, it would only be a part of the main event, probably one copy is not that much, 3 copies would be perfect, like a normal drop but for sure.
