Nope, once to twice a year perfect.

When you try to get to much of something it is no longer a good thing.

Pull the George Castanza, leave it just long enough you will come back the next time.

Maybe you like it because it's not everyday, every week, every month.
Maybe it's perfect as it is.

Other: I think some double AP weekends could be fun

You forgot the option to reduce mayhem to "never again"... mayhem is a horrible experience! Any PvP is, after the PvE'ers leave.

Yesterday I only wanted to do one quest in the imperial city, and got ganked 4 times by players at quest objectives. Horrible horrible experience!

And for the love of god, remove tickets from events like these! Also stop forcing us into the IC by only making the outfit drop there, instead of from boxes!

PS: I do have fun in Cyrodiil, with the PvE quests only. Please stop taking my towns!
PPS: Remove any PvP endeavours please!

PPPS: I have not attacked any other players in Cyrodiil, unless they attacked me or were trying to take a town I was questing in.

You forgot to state your opinion as what it is: an opinion. You think MYM is a horrible experience, but the amount of people in there prove otherwise. I think people who say this, want to put minimum effort and risk and still get maximum reward. I also think this is not how games should work. For tickets you only have to finish 1 IC quest. It's not difficult to make yourself either tanky or stealthy, group up and just do 1 quest. It doesn't matter if you die and you have to return, or find another way of finishing it. That's part of the game, that's the thrill.

I also see questers complaining in zonechat sometimes. It's so easy to just grab one of the quests like kill 20 players, scout a resource and then group up. Maybe use some sieges, you might discover it's not that bad.

The difference between PvE and PvP is that in PvP you fight other players instead of a program, so you don't get away with slacking or minimum effort. I'm lazy and sometimes bring my PvE chars into PvP zone for some reward, without regearing them. I don't complain if I get nuked then, because it's my own fault.

Another vote for occasional double AP weekends rather than monthly MYM

I don't think it should be monthly no, especially if other events are going off. Now I can see making 2 days a week dbl AP. Mix it up on weekdays and not just weekend double AP when population is already higher. Bring in some life weekdays too.

I would be happy if they just made double ap (and maybe even double Tel Var) a more regular thing, like the explorer celebration for xp they sometimes do.

I like PvP and I like that the event makes the areas more active. My perception is that we had to wait longer than usual for this one, which probably isn't even true but shows I was looking forward to it. What I don't like is the longer queues for the one alliance-locked campaign and how getting these event tickets can be more time consuming than most due to the requirement to queue into a different area.

So, I'm not sure I would like more Midyear Mayhem exactly as-is, and in particular monthly seems a little too much, but I'm not against more reasons for people to go to Cyro and IC. Double AP events would push more people to Cyro but I'm not sure it would entice more folks to IC.

Anyway I can't vote yes or no because my vote is more of an "other." I will add my voice to the ones saying that they overall have better experiences in PvP during the event.

Why are there even PVE story quests in a PvP zone to begin with? To experience the story of the zone I gotta endure ganking and griefing. Really needs a separate pve version for those that just want to do the story/quests.

I agree wholeheartedly. It is just cruel. It is cruel to PvE-ers who just want to do the PvE stuff to force them into an area where they will be tormented by PvP-players, and it is cruel to PvP-players who lose seats to PvE-ers, wondering why a pop-locked server only has a handful of defenders.

Anything to get the wayshrine warriors back into their containment zones
