I don't understand why Thrawn event wasn't named in the event calendar. I mean awesome it's coming back but why so secretive and hush about it. Sure people guessed at it and the phx upgrades are a red...

Y'know, part of it could be that they want the increase in traffic on the forums. Not announcing Thrawn on the calendar creates a frenzy of posts about whether he's actually coming back or not, in addition to the posts that Kozi responded to, basically saying that Thrawn would be back.
They were essentially in a no win situation, as they find themselves in frequently. If they put him on the calendar with a date, and then for whatever reason, that date doesn't work, people will gripe. If they put him on with no date, people would still complain that they need to know when. And if they do what they did, and just hint that he will be back soon, or "up next", people are incensed that they weren't given enough notice.
They have the unenviable task of trying to satiate the forum's collective hunger for information. If we look at where we are now and compare it to even last year, I don't really think we have much to complain about.
A mobile gaming forum - I'm sure they have thick skin. And complaints are a great way to get feedback and info. That doesn't mean every complaint has merit but shouldn't be disregarded either. Devs and community managers are at a severe disadvantage than we are. They can't voice disproval- we can.
