I was thinking of getting some Amarr boosters before the Amarr event, however if too many people do that
they won't get games, unless you play the confused slaves faction. |

Just another reason all boosters should be match based. Whatever idiot came up with timer based active boosters screwed CCP and screwed the game in general.

base it on time but base it on the certain past but not the dubious future
They would only have to keep track of skill points and loyalty points in last day, last week , last month, That is not much information to keep track of and they simply not count the days the server was down
or keep track of last 10 games and last 100 games and allow people to buy a cheap bulk deal |

Thats what instant boosts are for. Match based boosters would sell far better due to the fact that the game would not feel like you have to actually work to get your money's worth. I do not even bother activating the pile of free 1 day boosters I have because I know in a 24 hour period there is an excellent chance that I have rage quit before reaching 10 matches in that 24 hour period.
Currently its sort of like if Groupon was selling discounts to a restaurant that expired the next day. No one would buy any unless they were on their way to the restaurant. Only the most extreme deal seekers would end up being customers just like how currently only the people who grind their ass off buy boosters any time other than when they need that quick SP boost to finish off a skill. It just plain does not work for selling to the masses.
EDIT: This would also make a nice little passive punishment for leaving battle. Remove the match from the booster once you have entered the warbarge.

Yes but as we have seen in the past events tend to lead people to grind in the most popular game mode in an effort to get the missions out of the way as fast as possible. Pretty easy to see this even turning into a domination grind fest.
