YUP. THE EVENT. IT'S RIGGED. [look at the equation!]

S.I.N. CURRENT SCORE

Build/Power/Sabotage Level / # Cultists: .... (1040 + 3190600 + 300) / 88297
Total Cultist Experience / # Cultists: .... 6596333 / 88297
Weapon Fires: .... 75 * 100
Followers / Players: .... 1236158 / 88297

B.O.O. CURRENT SCORE

Build/Power/Sabotage Level / # Cultists: .... (690 + 2103857 + 101) / 70424
Total Cultist Experience / # Cultists: .... 5355663 / 70424
Weapon Fires: .... 82 * 100
Followers / Players: .... 1056360 / 70424

______________________________________________ ____ ____________
Score: .... 8320

Notice how S.I.N's build, sabotage level, total cultist experience, and followers are much more then B.O.O's?
If S.I.N. is doing more, then why is B.O.O. winning?

Look at the bold.
Everything is divided by total number of cultists.
We all knew S.I.N. would get more members. Gaia knew it too.
Seems like good will win once again, for all the wrong reasons~

I wouldn't jump right to rig. It's probably just a glitch. I mean Gaia is glitching our right now so it wouldn't be surprising. I'm sure the Devs will fix it tomorrow.

[Camron Flamheart]

Improving Lives Everywhere...

Not to mention more errors on the site at the moment, which is impending our ability to actually try to win now. More of us, means more people getting the errors on our part. See where this is going?

... By Whatever Means Necessary.

Or they wanted it to be fair for the team that got the less number of people.

I saw glitched, since our number of weapon fires hasn't gone up, for a while.

Or maybe its because you guys have more members?

[Daisuke001]

There would be no point if it weren't a somewhat even match.

This ensures that the team with the most people doesn't automatically win -BOO will win if it has fewer players but those fewer players work harder and progress further whereas SIN may have a large number of people in the cult who join and then sign off and neglect to gain experience points.

Besides that BOO is supposed to be known for defense while SIN is known for raw power, a large cult represents raw power fairly well whereas a smaller hard working strategic force represents defense.

Or maybe it's because evil shall nevar triumph! pirate

You realize the more cultists SIN has the more they have to work?

Every mule someone makes for SIN makes the denominator larger, thus making the product smaller.

Unfortunately being the BIGGER team might actually work against us.

This.

It's the same thing that happened to Durem during the Summer Event's second year.

[Prince Celestine]

Don't forget...
It's divided by the ammount of people in the faction.

Don't discredit our resolve.

Yeah, it totally doesn't have to do with the fact that we fired our lazor for the past 12 times, yet it didn't count in the overall score. .-.

The game's a little glitched right now, not rigged...

...I HOPE. scream

Did you actually do the math yourself? Because if you did, you'll see why BOO is in the lead. You see, ever since after the first summer event, Gaia has made the algorithm for events so that the number of users on a team doesn't matter. I think that's totally fair. Let's face it, there is always going to be one team that's going to attract more users. If that team automatically won, then the events just wouldn't be fun. Instead, the events measure the activity on each team compared to the number of team members. Therefore whichever team's members work harder (and NOT whichever team has more people) wins. Obviously, it might be rigged because there's no way for us to know if those numbers are accurate. But if you do the math yourself with the numbers provided, the results are correct. But what you should know is that just because a team has more members doesn't mean it automatically will win. We know this from the 2nd summer event.

Yeah see I've always seen this as a slight flaw in how things are done in Gaia. Especially because of the use of mules. I mean one or two mules isn't going to make a difference... until you have several people making mules and dumping them on a team. Plus how is an underdog and underdog if it always wins?
