Lol if personal points are doubled also then it’s no contest anymore (if they ever add it to the api at all -.-), just the luck of the draw if you happened to have lots of this exact resources in a double week or not. And if you turned in equally valuable resources, in same amounts, which happened to not be required in the lucky week, you’d loose half points which is silly and even more reason for most of us to stop wasting resources on the event (and no worries, you and possibly Scott will be the only ones in this range of points anyways, even without devs doubling them ^^).
PS: Also I doubt even permanent double points will do much to trigger an early island release. It’s two of four months left till 27th Oct and we are not even half-way. The longer it goes the more people loose interest. Also there’s like 5 of the required mobs scattered in a zone, makes not much sense to farm them except if you’re the only one. Farming the horde and the rat in the beginning was at least fun and possible to do for many/groups of players at once. Perhaps a radical way to safe the event would be to unlock points for ALL mob types you kill, where-ever in the world, that would make the server buzz. But I guess right now there’s only a handful who still care about all this.
