Perpetual headlamps were also given out for a few minutes of RPing with Sunshine on Syntax, and for getting the most damage on an Unlimit on Vector. While you deserve the reward you got through the months you put into your event, you shouldn't hold others to the same standard when the item in question is proliferated for much, much less.
Steelle also got one for pinpointing Morpheus's position on Syntax a few weeks ago.
My point was more that you should have to take part in a Rarebit live event to get an item like that. I mean, there's something storyline-oriented behind that object that way, even if it was just chatting with Sunshine and racing her, or doing the most damage to an Unlimit officer. Rather than... beating some other folks from Mara in a whiteroom tournament.
I'm not trying to hold everybody to the standard that I had to go through to get mine, just the standard in general - the story-driven Live Event. That's all.
The point I was making by saying "you can do 8 months of work..." was more to prove why I feel this way, and why I don't want them to just be handed out to anyone who can answer a Brewko trivia question right. They should at least do something story-oriented, in my opinion.
Just cause the white room was used and done by brewko people are complaining.

A year from now all beta gear and other exclusive-items will have lost their value because it's all given away, so by then we'll become so disinterested we won't even care anymore. EDIT: Hmm, that sounds very discouraging, which isn't usually my style. But at this rate?
I wasnt beta, I could care less about having beta clothing. I was one of the people who was brought in to the white room. I recieved Mobius and a stat hack. I know mobius was considered a vet ability. But then it was given to trial players. I heard many of u vets that complained about trial players getting it then, but imagine how the people like me who joined after the destryoer but before the free trials were feeling double screwed.
Brewko u gave betajump to people- and u gave me a stat hack? can I trade? j/k
The one thing that I got out of the tourney-(besides the rewards) was imagining the white room being a new construct where all levels could go, no npcs to fight, but no where to run or hide pvp.

I admit in some situations jumping is ok but doing it non stop is down right annoying. They dont die and get cq from team kills and think they are top *CENSORED*.

Exactly what happened to me, it sucked. it wasnt clear. And now i have an account with non of the items I PAYED FOR!! Thats right i payed!!! Payed to get Mobeius, and Hyper Jump beta, but YET ive been cheated out!! I know ive kept pretty silent in this, but at last someone had the same thing as me! I payed for this game, i payed for the trial at the start which came with the "goodies" and i missed out cos SOE cant make a sign up thing clearer!!
why not let brewko take some of the load.
Zenom wrote: why not let brewko take some of the load. Because... 1) people will cry favoritism because you can't fit the entire server in white rooms. this is not an event, this is a pvp challenge in which brewko picked ppl. why would there be roleplayers/noobs that dont pvp involved. this is content directly aimed at pvpers, if u want in... pvp more. this will cause alot more ppl to pvp simply to be around when brewko shows up and develop their skills for a chance to win. i see this as a better way of actually getting rewards as it relies on skill rather then pure luck. this will also increase the numbers in pvp and make pvp more fun generally. 2) it caused people to miss an actual event i think your talking about the mxo trivia which is unrelated to your first point. but ill answer it anyway. well this was the first time it was done and i bet brewko and rarebit would have talked about it afterwards. i also think that rarebit and brewko will probably be working more closely with this in the future to ensure they dont step on each others toes. 3) I thought this was rarebit's job... rarebit has lots of jobs and i think giving a little bit of responsibilty to someone else isnt a big issue. u cant expect rarebit to do everything.
