Just a short update on the results of the great burning event that recently ended. I burned 1,145,500 $DEC in total during the burn event. My rank by the end of the event was 82, securing me a rare title "The Scorcher" + a chance to win various prizes. The amount of DEC I burned is no insignificant amount for me. I was actually a bit hesistant at the time, and maybe a bit still. Should I have burned less?
My reasoning both then and now is that I know I'll be staying in this game for a long time. And I also know I want to keep contributing to my guild and making it stronger. So regardless of whether I burned more than I could actually afford or not, I'm at least happy that I now have plenty of Guild Power to contribute to my guild for the foreseeable future and then some.
Let's check some results!
Anyways, the results are in. Let's see how we did.
343x chances to receive prizes we should at least be able to get something. Anything else would just be extremely bad luck.

Drumroll....
Okay! We got an additional land plot! And an untamed pack + a couple of RW packs as a bonus. Let's have a look at the current market prizes for these items.
$4 + $17 + $97 + $115 = $233 of value in total from this events prizes. Not bad at all! And that at the bottom of a seemingly everlasting bear market.. Needless to say I won't be selling any of these anytime soon.
I'll definitely be selling the land plot at an opportune time though, as I have plenty of enough trouble as it is populating my current 60 plots in the Pristine North West, and gonna need all the DEC I can get my hands on.
Did you burn any DEC during the event? And if so, which prizes did you get - if any?
