I just wish I was able to know when the event happened if I was online, I rarely spend any time in town so I always miss out on the event when I'm off in the wilderness soloing cactuars off the beaten path...

Like seriously if nobody joins the event (Que doesn't fill or something) a global message about it's occurance wouldn't be a terrible thing would it? I understand they are worried about "Congestion" but as it stands I doubt the events with no reward other than a cool experience would remain cluttered for long.
