Feedback and Input! Round 2!
Hey guys!
Since we've just come out of a major event, we'd like to take this opportunity to ask for another round of feedback and input similar to what we had a few months ago! We'd like input both on the event itself and on some game mechanics that we are wondering how to streamline right now.
The Event
Basically, we heard from a few people that it was difficult to know how to really jump in. Additionally, as mods, we noticed that people were reluctant to group up with each other; at the beginning, there were many solo threads waiting for a response. We can't respond to everyone's threads individually, so during events, we really do need for groups to be able to happen. Our response to this was to allow the event to go a few extra days, but we'd be open to hearing any suggestions about how to streamline future events.
Feel free to give any other comments about the event, too, positive or negative!
Wild Pokemon Bonding
First off, thank you to Nor for having helped us since our first round of Helper apps! She has asked to step down, so everyone thank her for helping us out so long!
This brings us to a question/concern we currently have:
What would you guys like to see from the wild Pokemon bonding in this game? Is having the option to have someone thread Pokemon with you someone you guys want to see continue? At the moment, there is a possibility that we will scrap this mechanic based on input received and on discussion with our Helpers, past and present. (Helpers, we'll initiate a conversation with you probably tomorrow!)
Anything Else
We're open to hearing feedback about anything else, too!
This post will be open to anonymous comments. However, we cannot screen the post as anon would then not be able to see our responses to them.

no subject
I liked the event, felt it was handled well, just unfortunate a lot of people got very busy during it. I think as mentioned above, a "I don't mind teaming up but not sure how to ask can you RNG me" sign up would help in the future, and is a good excuse for CR that might not normally happen. As for group sign ups, I don't know what to say there, you did make it fairly clear that to be able to actually handle the volume of activity going on you'd need groups, but I suppose people were nervous about asking others? I know that's always my problem at least.
Finally, thank you for all the hardwork put into the game Nor!
