Well the last Global Event run up is almost upon us. It looks as if we will just be making it to achieve Tier 1. So next week will be a Bonus Marks Week as a result. Unfortunately, the item they picked to unlock the Bonus Marks was probably one of the ones that would not be the best for getting to the higher Tiers - running PVE Queues and Fleet Actions. They already know based upon their Metrics ©®, that with a handful of Queue exceptions people are not running this stuff. If they did well with getting new people to join up, those Recuits may be fairly hesitant to run them to begin with. Veterans who created a new TOS Character would know but would generally run what they routinely run, if they were even interested in doing them again.
If they wanted to keep the Bonus Level down, then they picked a fine one for that. The only thing worse they could have picked was one they did during the Delta Recruitment Event - doing the same Arc Missions over again that the Recruits just did.

"Additionally, each Weekly Goal comes in multiple tiers. Completing the first goal should be relatively simple, and reliably reward all players with an extra mini-event for this easy completion.*
If the community can sometimes reach tier 3 in 2 days and sometimes not even tier 1 in 7 days, then something seems to be wrong with how the tiers are set.

I suspect that it is not working or not tracking all of the queues that AOY toons are doing. Not knowing the actual numbers makes it impossible to ever know. I do know that sometimes it doesn't work only because they told us so. The number given could also be an absolute fabrication, no one would ever know.
Yes, the bar was likely set too high. That's the real difficulty with these events. They are losing the ability to judge accurately. But it was close so I think they should allow it to stand.

Personally, I never paid any attention to the global events at all.

At least my Temporal Recruit has been able to enjoy a 20% Bonus on pretty much everything including Tier 5 Reputation payouts (900) due to having a bunch of those Bonuses that dropped from the Infinity and Kelvin Lockboxes.
Last Reputation will be the Temporal in about 10 days. With all the Mark dumps showered on the Temporal Recruits (including being able to claim all the Delta Account Rewards), the Character is in very good shape Marks-wise for when I unlock Mk XIII UR.

130 Marks * 1.25 = 162.5 or 163 marks.
Anything above that are the 1 Dil reward for simply destroying other ships.
What they really need to do is put one of those icons by your portrait that tells you specifically what Bonus is in effect.

Well... at least all my effort I (and other players as well) put into playing the PVE queue has yielded extra marks for the moment.
Now it is just a matter of counting down the dayz to unlock that UR Mk XIII bonus on my account.
