Almost $100 for a desk? Thatās delulu.
DNs donāt seem to do much unless people in LB are dumping hundreds at a time. I havenāt figured out how theyāre getting so many.
I love the idea of this event. I think ATA might have made it impossible to actually get the avatar, however.
The campus event sounds like a nice way to drive player engagement. The problem is, the amount of drops the whole playerbase gets doesnāt depend on how much effort players put in.
JƤƤkƤƤrne only spawns once every 4 hours regardless of how fast the party gets finished, for a total of 24 times over 4 days. The number of hits required to finish the party is the basically the same for each one. Drops depend directly on hits, so the total collective drops is basically predetermined by the number of spawns.
At the rate things are going, the campus xc is straight up impossible because thereās simply not enough JƤƤkƤƤre spawns to complete it. Nobody is getting the avatar, making the whole argument over avi gender moot.

Itās pretty funny how we independently came to the same realization at almost the same time! Assuming no parties are failed, the xc score is tied only to the frequency of JƤƤkƤƤrne spawns and not player effort. The rate is constant, so Iād estimate around 480m points by the end of the event. Your figure is pretty much correct IMO.
Was also coming to say the math ain't mathing with this based off the last 24ish hours. It seems we've been set up to fail at getting rewards. My math also comes out to about 480M points. Meaning we would only get the first two reward tiers at no fault to the community since the party only runs so often.
They made the last one ridiculously hard at first too. They'll likely adjust it so we don't fail, because it doesn't reflect well on a game if their community can't complete their events (I've only ever known Helldivers to actually let their events fail.) ATA Seem to have a really hard time figuring out realistic expectations for this games events, Notice how they took the time to make sure there was a leaderboard though. So there's still going to be a handful of people dropping hundreds of dns to get their leaderboard rewards even if the main event did fail.

Just to clarify, the other games are also scoring on their challenges, and those scores will contribute to PIMD's campus challenge, just as PIMD's score contributes to the challenges in all the other games.
It's disappointing that the feedback from the recent Dino XC wasn't taken on board, and yet again we have another "whoever uses the most DNs takes the top spot" xc event.
Makes more sense! Thanks for pointing that out. By current pace as of the update, we should make just over the top tier to get all of the rewards.
Respectfully you donāt really have what to complain about. 90% of hunts and themes of hunts are catered towards women. Add to that the fact that you get 4 monthly avis and males get 2 and the fact that most people agree male avis suck next to the female avis. The price disparity is due to supply and demand. Male and female avis have the same drop rate but you have more female players so there is more demand for female avis which makes them more expensive. I understand it sucks that you donāt get a female Avi on this event but come on Females always have and always will get priority and better treatment here than the males and itās simply business. Them making some avis hide behind a paywall is bs but itās for all of us not just one gender
Yes, it does take a while for all rewards to be loaded out to the entire playerbase. You will see the number continually adjust drastically for a bit after each party ends.
Okay great! Thank you. I asked in friendship chat if I was the only one getting slow results but no one replied
so again Thanks!limoncello

Honestly, the fact that you added this leaderboard has destroyed the whole vibe of so-called campus event, the whole point of uniting players. Because this lb has once again shown us that players who don't pay are not entitled to anything good. They just don't even have a chance to be on lb, because at least people with subscriptions get a bonus drop. It's sad, very very sad.
Okayyyyy...
So from 339M I went to 355M and now 380M, this is after each party.
I asked in Friendship chat why I'm struggling to get to 3rd tier and apparently playing other ATA games helps with the challenge? I don't know what's going on
and I don't like that I would have to play/figure out another game to help me in this one

Technically they do, which is why we can tell if an old bag of bones belonged to a male or female, based on structure and densityAnother thing skeletons donāt have genders
