I see now the first convention since this week's task started.. and it's in Beverly Humps.
I think this is really unfair towards the lower ranked members. If you want to give an equal opportunity, all conventions during this task should be held in Telleville.
There is already a gap between highly active studios and others... I don't think it's wise to add this much disadvantage.
I agree with you Shantsu. I think the point of these special events is to engage ALL players, even low ranked players and smaller studios. Shouldn't the purpose of these events be to make the game MORE enjoyable for everyone to encourage MORE gameplay. As I see it, this will only discourage players from participating if they feel they have no realistic way to win.
If conventions are going to be used in the Temple event again in the future, my suggestion is that they be held more than once per day.
