Okay now will it be exclusive for the TGS-goers or will it just be concurrent with the convention?

I believe the bomb earrings will return while SE debuts the Dodo Earrings.

Basically how it'll work.. They'll have an primal fight at the convention. The teams who win will have their leader draw a server name out of a hat. Whoever's server name is drawn gets the earrings. They will keep drawing server names as long as people win the fight.

And the lucky servers get the rewards huh?

That's how it works. When they did it the first time, every single server won and they had more people winning, so they added in bomb earrings too. And every server got those too.

Cactuar Earrings, yes... but not the Bomb Earrings - the Bomb Earrings were only added to the event at the eleventh hour when it seems SE realized that it was obvious every server was now going to end up winning the right to gain the Cactuar Earrings, so they added the Bomb Earrings towards the end of the event probably to have something 'exclusive'.

Which worked, as only a handful of servers ended up with the Bomb Earrings, mostly Legacy ones from what I understand (my server had them for instance). Anyway, the return of this event will be nice for all those players who have just joined recently and thus missed out the first time (I still wear my Cactuar and Bomb Earrings - they're good lvl 1-15 ear wear as well).

Please get correct information.

I hope they decide include the bomb earrings again.

Someone, please repost the link above, since most people don't read edits.

All servers can get the rewards if people beat it enough. (Didn't that happen last time?)

Yes, Titan got beat so bad that they ran a second lottery, and they beat him some more. It was a sad day for Titan.
