Legitimately having fun. I think maybe a lot of us are, and probably aren't saying anything because

1. Satisfied people generally don't; people generally speak up to complain more than praise in any situation.

2. DO NOT want to seem like we're flexing on those who want the style pages. I can sympathize; there are definitely other horrible-RNG items in game that I want (but mostly try to ignore the existence of, to not be miserable or broke).

But the game is down for PC NA since Ithelia broke loose and I have nothing better to do... so this is a positivity post. Things I've enjoyed:

• Since there's no cool down on boxes + tons of options to get them this year (THANK YOU!) I've been doing a couple of fun-to-me grinds (not writs) to get hundreds of boxes per day.
• From those, I'm mostly saving mats so that furniture crafting is less stressful later.
• And buying more "on sale" - love a good deal.
• Thanks to U41 and this event coinciding with a crown sale, I was able to trade smartly and trade my gold for a couple of houses I've been wanting for years! Yay!
• Got a motif I'd been wanting for a long time, that's normally prohibitively expensive.
• Saving my big drops to sell later, so I can get more wishlist items.
• Certain "grinds" are fun during events because they become even more popular than normal, so they're even faster, more exciting and lucrative. I just love riding with a river of shiny ponies, to defeat a big enemy together and get great loot! Zone chat can get pretty funny.
• Joining up with friends and guildmates for the above, chatting and celebrating our best drops. (I've gotten Aetherial dust, Aetherial Cipher, stacks of Nirncrux, Perfect Roe, Rheum, and more - awesome!)

Again, totally get it if none of this appeals to the player who already "has everything" or only want the style pages. Maybe I'm in a minority. Or maybe there are others who are newer and don't know how to make the most of this event, beyond the horrible grind they see everyone talking about.
