But better than nothing ig
If I could I would click like on this post a thousand times.
I haven't been able to hit the 2 most recent parties much due to a holiday gathering with family, but I'm happy to see ATA again stepped in to make some sort of compensation for the failed party as well as adjust the difficulty again to try and find that balance. Waiting for the next one to start to see firsthand how it goes after the changes were made.
If you have not reached the 150 drops, they wonāt show for you yet . Did you complete that?
Thank you!
Better yet put it in the banner of the rager chat. People are going to ask anyways and programming the banner is probably going to be easier than implementing an extended countdown. Might as well use the banner for something.
I had, thank you
Im currently a little over 250 now. I checked again after I got off work and they're in my Avis now, it may have just been delayedI think the compensation drops arenāt enough for the party hits Iā / some of us have done ā 4-5 DNs included. I only received 86 & 8 campus clouts which are ridiculously low. I have been getting 190-346 from the previous ones.

They should extend tiers for lb rewards due to the ongoing issues with drops, 10% boost not working and picking and choosing when to save parties that messed with everyoneās hard work on leaderboard
Ikrrrr. The one that happened at 2025-12-21 8:00:00 Pacific Time was so slow and I was dead sure it was gonna fail so I didnāt waste my DN for it. Plus you all didnāt save the previous party (2025-12-21 4:00:00 Pacific Time) which gives the impression that you wonāt save parties anymore.
With this event, all we really did was confirm that the PIMD community is toxic.
Not everyone, thankfully, but the majority, unfortunately, is.
A community event should be about helping each other, not turning everything into a race over whoās higher on the leaderboard.
Sure, ATA definitely shares the blame for introducing a leaderboard in a community event, but even so, it is possible to be altruistic while still caring about your LB position. Iāve seen a few people help others regardless of already being well-ranked.
Most people, though, werenāt like that.
Most oĢ¶nĢ¶lĢ¶yĢ¶ Ģ¶cĢ¶aĢ¶rĢ¶eĢ¶dĢ¶ Ģ¶aĢ¶bĢ¶oĢ¶uĢ¶tĢ¶ Ģ¶tĢ¶hĢ¶eĢ¶mĢ¶sĢ¶eĢ¶lĢ¶vĢ¶eĢ¶sĢ¶ chose to be cruel.
ATA made several mistakes, no doubt:
Weāve already had events like this. They should have understood the difficulty of parties by now. Even if we assume this time participation was higher due to better rewards, fine, but still.
Once they saw how fast the first parties were finishing, they should have intervened immediately (after the very first one) without waiting for the community to complain. Especially since it wasnāt even in ATAās interest to let parties end so quickly. Weāve long established that profit is their main concern.
After the complaints, they should have implemented a middle ground. Why are parties suddenly at a reasonable speed now? Did it really take that long? Of course not. There are so many ways to keep things fair. For example: add an initial bar that can only be completed after the first hour of the party. Only after that can players clear the remaining bars. Anyone who wanted to use DNS on the first bar could do so freely, even millions of them, because the bar wouldnāt finish before the hour mark anyway. I genuinely hope this suggestion helps them for future events.
By handling this so poorly, they ended up splitting the community into opposing sides.
That said, knowing how PIMDās mechanics work, I donāt even fully blame ATA anymore. At this point, I honestly understand why they put up paywalls. There are people who will do anything to dominate and have everything. Psychologically, it used to anger me that the devs exploited this behavior, but after seeing how some players reacted yesterday (and I repeat, some, not everyone), they honestly deserve to take their money.
Some people are filled with an astonishing level of cruelty. Maybe it comes from trauma or difficult rl situations, but my empathy ends the moment thereās not even a shred of humanity toward others.
Do you really feel happy and accomplished if you finish a party in ten minutes so half the community canāt even participate?
Congrats, I guess.
And no, this isnāt about āsetting alarmsā. This is a game and a community event. Alarms make sense for hunt LBs or flash events (maybe) but not for a community event.
And honestly, setting alarms for a game is absurd. Please, get a grip. Find fulfillment in real life. And no, donāt start with āpeople spend money on cinema or theater, this is just another hobbyā. Itās not the same thing. Art teaches you something, opens your mind. PIMD mostly just makes people more toxic. Also, do you know that game-addiction is now on the DSM-5? (If you don't know what DSM-5 is, go google it).
Iāve seen extreme levels of toxicity here, obsession, possession, uncontrolled jealousy (not just between partners, but even among friends). And often, those same people were the first to betray or behave in the exact ways they criticized in others. Stop living in a fantasy world. Start taking care of yourselves and be less cruel.
One comment genuinely made me smile: someone admitted to being selfish but still managed to put themselves in othersā shoes. A perfect example that being selfish doesnāt automatically mean being cruel.
Indeed, the real issue here isnāt being selfish but being cruel.
Selfish ā you donāt care about others
Cruel ā you actively want others to suffer
Boycotting a party while knowing there were players who hadnāt even reached the minimum to claim rewards was the lowest point. If you donāt want to use DNS, fine, but at least unload.
And honestly, complaining about people rightfully complaining, then being the first to whine about āwasted DNSā in a failed party, something nobody forced you to do, is pure hypocrisy. Your needs arenāt the only ones that matter: as you have the right to complain, others have the same rights, unless we live in a dictatorship.
This mindset also reflects a toxic form of capitalism, where spending money becomes a measure of worth. Paying more does not grant moral superiority, nor does it invalidate the rights or voices of others. A community that functions on āwho pays decidesā is no longer a community: itās a hierarchy.
Also, it was obvious ATA would step in eventually. It was Sunday. Normal people want to enjoy their lives on Sundays, not work. All it took was a bit of patience.
To close: thank you to everyone who genuinely supported the community and didnāt turn their backs on others despite spending heavily for the leaderboard. You were the real PIMD community.
And a big thank you to the moderators, who endured some of the worst comments from incredibly rude and ignorant people who still donāt understand that mods are players too, not ATA. Despite everything, they remained polite and respectful.
Okay. Rant over. Iām done.

Would like to make a suggestion for next community event. If you guys want to give us more rewards instead of a leaderboard during a community event how about an ec spending event as a community? It makes more sense than having us try to compete with each other during an event that's supposed to bring us all together. 
Because people spend ecs regardless whether it's to open hunt boxes, shard boxes, to buy ec drops, ec gifts, etc.
