Would it be possible to have the code more accurately determine when all 5 participants are truly dead at the exact same time?
All too often I see the simulation over screen despite one player being alive the whole time, or respawning and walking around but not being counted as being alive.
It's very frustrating after waiting on that resurrect all button knowing I don't need to use it yet, but the simulation ending wrongly.

The Pulsewave was the award from the despised 14/21 day Sompek grind Event. That was a Character unlock only. The 14/21 day event after that Sompek was the Mirror Incursion. That is where they decided to make the special reward (only) an Account unlock. You would still need to run the Event on every Character that you wanted the Marks/Dilitium, but the special reward unlocked for everyone on the Account as long as you completed the Event on one Character.
At this stage they are probably going to add that Pulsewave into the Phoenix Prize Pack Event Store at some unspecified time in the future.

I have a question regarding vouchers for other characters. I did this que on all my characters for 2 days and got 2 vouchers on each character, today I did it with a first character, got 3rd voucher and went to weekend event store and bought an item, it unlocked for account, but when I switched characters and tried que on another character I did not get any more vouchers. My question is it by design or is it a glitch?

I had the same thing. On thursday and friday it seems each caracter could get a voucher but they must have done a quickfix and stopped that today. Now it seems only 1 voucher per day for the account (which is how it used to be).

So, in theory tomorrow I should be able to get one more voucher and unlock another item?

After today's Sompek Experience, I am wondering if a certain kind of obsessive/objectionable player may be overly invested or drawn to this queue.
Short recap, there was a player who got overly aggressive when the team decided they wanted to give up in round 6.
And I took the brunt of their aggression since I was the one who gave the others the idea that we could just stop.
It was explained to this player by myself and other other team member that if they wanted unlimited rounds of the queue, they should have joined the untimed queue and found a team who wanted to do as many rounds as possible.
For clarification, this was the timed queue we were playing.
Then when all the other members of the team voluntarily chose not to respawn, this objectionable individual kept fighting solo until defeated.
That was followed by an even more impolite statement posted in the end room after the match was concluded.

Well being able to play catch-up a bit for the extra Sompek tokens was nice, even if a mistake, for any players. Some people were stating it had to be done for the sake of metrics. Well, having the chance to collect extra tokens probably caused increased metrics so it is probably not so much about metrics but the timing of those said metrics. It isn't like if you collected a lot of the Sompek tokens you can abuse/exploit them since there are only so many items to use them on.
@dracounguis I'm glad you're able to get groups that actually run. I keep running in to every little TRIBBLE who quits after round 5 and tells everyone to do the same. I've managed to solo up to 7 while even reviving these quitters... what's the use in having an event if people aren't even going to actually run it?
If 4 out 5 team members have voted to end the match fast, then one invidual who is prolonging the match is just being inconsiderate and selfish.
The solution is quite simple, if someone is looking to do more then five rounds, stay out of the timed queues (limited to 20 rounds) and teaming with invididuals who want to do multiple waves is more likely.
If in the timed queue, then it's most likely everyone there is just interested in a short run to get the token so they can move on to playing other parts of the game.
Cryptic has provided us with the means to play how we choose by implementing two versions of the Sompek queue and if taking advantage of that is not done, then other players can not be held responsible for encountering a team whose goals may differ.
My personal opinion is that the more waves that occur, the probability of encountering Iconians and Fek'liri waves increase and I just want to get my token without encountering either.
So a short run has the highest chance of avoiding those waves.

You can watch tactics, and make some moves you didn't know you could do besides watch funny deaths in it.
The rewards on the other hand are lackluster at best.
Will be fun.
