The old system had to be phased out because it resulted in significant crowds of people flocking to a single location which brings the server to it's knees. If 1000 people want to get in an event and know the 'hint' then this results in bad times for everyone because not only will it be a fight to get in, it will lag the server to hell in the process.

This reminds me of something... Oh, yeah! *cough* The Easter event. *cough*
I haven't been in an event for over a month and honestly I often get frustrated. Your chances of getting in an event are 1/3000, and if you do happen to get into an event, your chances of winning are usually 1/50. So basically your chances at winning an event are very small these days. And even if not all players online click the "Join queue" button, at least 1,000 will, and 1/1000 is still pretty small. But the admins can't add any warps when there are over 2,000 people online. Another thing that sucks is that hide and seek used to use warpers, so now the original event back in the days is pretty much never played anymore.
