I think this is kind of a "no compensation or feedback required" kind of thing. Not even really sure what you'd want them to do about it? This is pretty much the best solution for everyone. It's a bit unbalanced, but only if you have the time and desire to play two days straight to cap out in a single day, then do it again over the next 5 days.
IF they're even tracking it, they can't just triple what you got on Wednesday, as that's before the event started. In addition, some people played both Wednesday AND Thursday, so they would still have earned more. They also couldn't just return what was earned Wednesday to the cap, in part for that same reason, in part because some people would still complain about "missing out." Can't just take away triple SP earned on Thursday, since some people will have only played that day. Can't just ignore the people who capped out on Wednesday, because they said they'd be able to do so without worry.

a) Restore weekly cap to 3*190,400 = 571,200 LESS amount already earned or;
b) Increase weekly cap to 6*190,400 = 1,142,400 LESS amount already earned (if you were so intent on providing a "making-up-for-our-screw-up" bonus) as this is what some players have effectively achieved
two very feasible options right there mate
This assumes they can set an individual cap for every player easily, quickly, and without it messing anything else up. Not saying they can't, but it may not be as feasible as you think. |

I am not a tryhard , I just enjoy playing dust,but that does not mean it was my fault. I know the script for the event went wrong and im not complaining about the goof up, im complaining about how it was fixed. This my first time seeing this happen from CCP because i have only been playing Dust for about a month and I know people are going to be like "well this is CCP, learn from it."
I never new CCP had a history for messing up events or fixing it the wrong way.
and get four weeks worth of SP,not possible if you capped out on Wednesday.
194k Wednesday +582k Friday = 4 weeks worth
582k Thursday + 582k Friday = 6 weeks worth

%NewCap - %AccruedLastCap
Assumes they're actually tracking what each player earns cap to cap. I suspect if they were, w'd have that SP Rollover by now. |
