Irrelevant corollaries, hyperbole and:
implying that the people discussing it are crying is not trying to discredit the claim?
I'm all for a constructive discussion, and we've been having one, but pretending you were even remotely part of it and weren't just blindly overreacting to the discussion at hand is a joke.
It's not really a question about whether the mechanics of the wave system resulted in an unexpected disparity that wasn't controllable by player action. It's not something that could have been easily foreseen given the variety of number of participants in the different areas at the different times. I expect, based on how it worked, it was assumed a lot more people would be participating. Given that there have already been comments that it will be changed in the future, it's obvious the way it worked wasn't optimal. That's fine.
It's also obvious that the general opinion for whether a re-do would be desired is going to lay in which faction you support. If you thought your faction could have done better with less RNG you'll generally support a re-do, if your faction got a lot of benefit from it you are more likely to not want a re-do. We can discuss the possibilities and potential mechanical changes without something happening. You trying to paint the people talking about it as whiners and ridiculous is the least constructive thing in this thread.

Unfortunately, I think mulligans on any of them would be a mistake. If you were to re-do any single event, you might as well re-do to entire games up to this point. That's just not feasible. The schedule was laid out with plenty of time for people to schedule their time accordingly. It sucks for the people that got affected by the issues, but that's part of the game. The issues will be looked and resolved to be better worked in the future. The people that plan these things are people too, small errors can be expected.

Dreams coming true in less then five minutes!
These were really fun, and I think with multiple tracks, a few tweakings of the items (the balloon didn't feel like it had any real effect, but if more effect is too much effect, maybe just something else then), they could become pretty interesting to add elements to.
Thanks as well for making sure the game was as unbugged as possible (and then fixing a weird bug that was happening right before we got started that would have seriously fudged everything).
That love soon might end You are unbreaking
And be known in its aching Though quaking
Shown in this shaking Though crazy
Lately of my wasteland, baby That's just wasteland, baby

I attempted it for about two or three hours, during which time it was mostly just me, or me and @Will and apart from two wraiths neither of us could manage, a new mobs seemed to spawn like... once every two or three minutes. Was that the usual rate of these things?
cq all|alias set cmd thing1/thing2/thing3/thing4|queue add eqbal cmd
or especially queueing multiple things in each press of the button, the queue systems seems to go into the temporary intentional slowdown that we experienced in the treasure hunt. If you weren't there basically every command you entered in order happened at a set rate regardless of the speed of input. When that happens with queue commands like the above it means you're not getting the most up to date command coming through that you sent before, because the system is behind 2-3 commands. This results in what happened during the Dunn/Jhui vs Tesha/Tibitha fight where he RSL'd twice in a row into no rebounding (didn't come up between either) and DSL'd the wrong venoms at least once.
I don't recall ever having this happen myself, but I also don't send every button press to the server and catch/check commands client-side so I only modify the queue server-side when I'm inputting different commands. This is what makes me think it has to do with the volume of input into the queue system (possibly the alias system?) that causes it to happen.
