    I have a few questions:
    - It would be nice to know how many ballons it would require to reach each threshold, rather than just a percentage number. Will it be 10/20/100M to get to 100%?
    - Is the merging of servers actually going to make a positive difference? E.g. if the servers Y and Z need to gather, say, 10M and 7M balloons respectively to get to 100% and they are merged, does it mean they will have to gather an amount less than 10M+7M (e.g. 14M), or do they have to gather that total amount (17M) (in which case the merging would be pointless)?
    - Will you be using the first phase to determine approximately how many players on each server are actively pursuing the goals?

    This definitely looks to be more interesting than the End of the World event. Hopefully it'll be possible for our servers to actually achieve a goal this time...

    new adventures, new buildings, new (old) skins, global & individual objectives, and at least 20 free prizes for everyone, even those who do not wish to participate actively in the event? for shame, BB!! *rolls eyes and drowns in my own sarcasm*

    I can't wait to see how this plays out; it looks like it will be great fun. If nothing else, who doesn't love balloons?? *takes a big breath of helium and continues in a chipmunk voice* And thank you for taking steps to try to balance out the mismatched server strength. I hope it works to level the playing field a little.

    Out of curiosity though, the homepage says the servers would go down at 00:30 BST for the upload. Its now after 3:30 and Newfoundland at least is still up and running. Has the time been pushed back a few hours, or will the servers still be up at 8:00 as originally planned?

    Finally, to the person who suggested that the event description was written poorly or by someone who doesn't speak English natively.... how much helium have you had??? Considering the amount of info presented, it was amazingly and concisely written and if the author doesn't speak English as a first language, you could knock me over with a piece of confetti!!

    Well done on all points BB and Happy Birthday Settlers!!

    This looks interesting, and could be fun, but I think there are a few points that really ought to be made clear in the opening post:

    1) How do you get balloons? (Even if BB does not want to state in the post, they could at least put something specific like: The mechanism for getting balloons will be explained via the quest. Or, The mechanism for getting balloons is supposed to be secret, we hope you find out all the ways!)
    2) Are there any individual rewards? It seems that the quest is to gather balloons and donate them.. but, do we get anything for this, or only server wide rewards if we hit a threshold? It seems like some people could do a lot of work and get no reward if the server does not hit 100%. Be it as it may, it would be helpful to at least state: No individual rewards for handing in balloons, but lots of rewards if your server hits 100, 150, or 200%!!

    I think if those two points were clarified it would be great

    From the event description, under the Fair Chance for All section: Many activities in-game will allow players to gather balloons and hand them over to their game worlds. ... It is up to you to discover all the different mechanics and best ways to catch the maximum amount of balloons, make sure to share this knowledge with other players to increase the chance of winning.

    As for individual rewards, regardless of the server competition and the individual quest activity (which may or maynot reward loot other than balloons) we still get the voucher codes throughout the event. And if they're anything like today's, I'll opt not to sneeze on that cake.

    My thoughts exactly.
