For example if it only take 15 players doing the event to 1 hit the boss as soon as it spawns. Then that's 15 in regular world, 15 in morph realm. It doesn't matter if we've averaged 80 more players. I still think we can do this. I will definitely be pulling my weight to do the player base proud
And that is why we did not scale the numbers proportionally with the player count increase (or at all, really) and instead just used the killcount they managed last time as the silver goal.

What you're saying is true but you're leaving out one important thing: ironman instances. Yes, the 2 public/shared Kree'arra's will not be getting killed much faster during peak times (though they probably will during the low point of the day). But in addition to those 2 you also had 10-15 of them being killed constantly, hidden away in ironman instances (albeit at a slower rate since there's only 1 player killing each one). Now you might have 20-25 additional bosses being killed in those instances at any given time. So while the numbers don't scale linearly with the player counts they do not have a ceiling based solely on the respawn rates of the 2 main bosses.

EDIT: Let me give you the numbers from the last event:

Total kills: 19,986 (more than expected based on the damage... perhaps there are some forms of damage which aren't counted, like poison or DFS spec or whatever)
Regular player kills: 10,890 (54.5%)
Ironman kills: 9,096 (45.5%)

Our current player counts are 1.586x higher than they were back then.

Let's assume that the regular players will not manage any more kills than they did back then due to being limited by the respawn rate (though they probably will). Irons don't have this limitation so we can assume they will be able to kill 1.586x as many as they did the last time.

Which would mean: 10,890 regular kills + 14,426 ironman kills = 25,316 kills total (and the gold tier goal is 21,500)

All of this is just to illustrate that the bosses being killed in ironman instances make up a significant portion of the grand total. Since they are so hidden away it would be easy to assume that 90% of the action is taking place in the main rooms but that's really not the case.

All in all I'm confident the gold goal will be reached with relative ease.

Thankyou for the full hearted reply Rapsey. Looking at the numbers you have posted reguarding the last event, I was unaware of the impact the iron community had on the overall number of kills (the last event was way before i restarted the game) From these figures I do believe we can do this, as a community we can achieve this!
This just goes to show everyone that Ironmen are the backbone of this server! Chaos whips to all ironman accounts!!!

Poor timing, just paid 3b for the transform scroll

Jokes aside I'm very excited to join in on this event and to see the community fighting down this winged beast.

Unfortunately, another failed community event. What a shame.

I feel validated now. That's even far beyond our most optimistic predictions lol.

19.5% of the duration of the event, 9,364 kills (5,222 regular + 4,142 iron). If it continues at this rate we'll hit 47,868 kills. Or in other words the gold goal would be reached after just over 3 days. If it happens before Friday maybe we can end the event prematurely and do a bonus one for the weekend. :D
