I am being told by a friend that the event going to end today. I thought all event start and end at scheduled maintenance. so when actually the event is going to end?
BTW, this event really does not seem right, I did snowman thing last night the first time since it started, I got almost 10 mirage stone plus other stuffs needed by high level in less then 2 hours, it has affected in-game economy so much, hope it end today. even it ends today, it will take months for economy to go back to where it was if it ever happen.

    Why do players manage to complain about every event in this game?

    For me, I'm sitting back and enjoying the rest of this event. Again, ty PWI.

    It affected the economy in a good way.

    It really depends. Gold price is 100K compare to 135K before the event, so CS items are cheaper in game now. Some used to expensive items like mirage stone and chips have lost half of their value. It is good for players need those items and have coins to spend, it is also good for low level player who has no way to make coins before, but it is not good for new players whom need to sell gold to get coins, because not all in game items are cheaper than before now, actually a lots of items are selling higher now, which is understandable. since players soloing HH have to sell mats at higher price to make up the difference on mirage stone price, new players are buying stuffing their would not even think about before with the money they get from snowman drops. You can says snowman only drop few items, but those few items are affecting whole in-game economy, and the chain reaction is happening throughout the game now. I do not know it is good or bad, time will tell. but for sure I do not feel it is a good idea to let a short team event affecting over all in game economy.

    For who says I am complaining about the event. I actually do not, this event really does not affect me at all (eh, not true, I have been buying golds at cheaper price to increase my gold reserve). I have enought golds in my account to supply me CS items for a long time. and I have more then enough coins to buy most items I want in game even if I stop making any coins for next month or two. and I do not do those event quest. All I get from this even is a xmas blessing, I bought all the cards I need. What I do not feel comfortable is not this particular event, it is short team event affecting long team economy.

    Then let players make parties and go in TT get their mats themselves ^^

    As for the surplus of mirages and tickets, it will quickly dissappear off the servers anyway...

    Price of gold dropping is good.

    Mirages are extremely consumable. In fact, the only things you can use them for use up the mirage stone, so the price will start heading up again once the event ends. Especially since people will be buying stones in bulk anticipating a price increase, thus increasing demand, and then driving up the price again.
