Valentines day event fail

[SturmChurro]

Yeah, it's a pretty inefficient use of resources.

Then I guess all other events from here on out should have the bare minimum effort put into them and just have the NPC quest giver handover the event item immediately. Since that's all people want anyway.

It would save SE valuable work hours and, more importantly, money. All these events are just glorified sub renewing machines anyway, and people will resub because of the Fear of Missing Out on that glamour.

I don't see it that way, look at how much community excitement was created through this event. The evidence is right here, all the people outraged over their choice not winning. Just assuming everyone only picked Astrid for Red. I think this event and the content created for it worked as intended.
