Feedback This event is awfull
I don't need to explain to everyone who participate in this event. But I'll list here all the reasons why the event is terrible and bad for the game:
This event activly discourage drawing art in the place of tiles - the moment you try to draw someting, it's get instantly grifed by someone who just farm point for themself, without no penalities for such. (I remind you that drawing art and expressing themself at Wplace it's kinda main thing about this site)
Moderation do nothing with grifiers, they staight up ignore all reports for trouble makers in this event, basically encouraging it for gaining point as a «best strategy», making it all almost unplayable. It's not like they didn't working, it's that they just don't consider this mess an "Issue". If Wplace has less of a number players and popularity in general, that may be forgiven or get deal with, but their team do nothing to stop this behavior to occur.
Donation drain — The only thing why this event even exist, is to suck out your money for donation, so you can «buy» charges to get more points for your team/defend you art e.t.c. And even if do that, it's heavily useless, because grifind is not banned but instead encouraged, you just throwing money down the drain for NO reason, it's not only unmarketable, it's staight up harming image of the platform. While you see «this» up here, you didn't get motivation to play «more», instead the opposite feeling of that. (And that not like players in wplace just that, you can clearly see at borders of event enough arts that just good and OK, with much less grifing there, it's not issue with platform itself but just this event)
In result, this event fails complitley to put a message it's intended to do. Also it didn't profitable in any regard, because you can't defend your art forever, only reasonable way to make something comes from collaboration - but even that wasn't enough, as we see with this example at last tile.
There's not even an Issue with clear inbalance with teams, obviosly when you can see wich team is winning, you join winning side, and you unable to switch teams so your choise is permanent. This idea was doomed from the start, but it's not balance issue that make this event so bad, it's all listed thing up here that I listed, makes participating in this event very discouraging.
I hoped Wplace team learn their lessons and don't repeat same mistake again if they wanted make another event simmilar to those. (but my hope is already lost)
