I posted the first time about sitting in the queue for the third event with 30+ people in the zone for a half hour, many of them with scrolls, and missing the third event entirely. Something else happened this time.

I am sure it will be said by many players that they were DC'd 10 seconds before the end of the second event so they did not get the second scroll. Also when I connected back in I IMMEDIATELY tried to enter the queue, it took several minutes due to it saying "cannot find queue". When I finally got in, I was left with only 3 other players in the zone that had a scroll, so no full group to be able to go in. I find this rather ridiculous. To go through an hour of game play and be cut out of the payoff event entirely, for the SECOND time in a row. There should be some way that the players that have played through both events to get into the end event if there is not a full group. Maybe a lottery of some sort to get other players in that missed out to fill the party, I think it would be better to let one or two people in that fell short than to leave out several players that went through it all.

I don't think I am alone in saying that if there is ANY possibility of going through two events, and an hour of game play, then getting left out of the third event, THEN I WILL NEVER PLAY THE EVENTS AT ALL. Especially if the events only happen a couple of times a day. If this had happened on my main account on the live server twice in a row, I probably would have thrown my hands up and left the game entirely, even after paying money into the game. It is like a party leader kicking all of the other players just before the boss dies so they can get all the loot, except it is the GAME doing it.

The only way I can see players getting around this by themselves is to travel in a pre-made group, but on entering the third event it seemed to remove me from the group that I was in.

    I was kicked out of PvP, and could not get back in, so no credit for that part. :(

    I think the scroll thing blocking people/friends from getting into a dungeon at the end of it is fairly horrible, would be nice if only the party leader had to have a scroll to be able to queue people for the group, but they would have to be of the same faction.
