Flash events
This is not a rant about flash events, it's about it's times. I know the game has many hours a day that you collect stuff, but it's click and go, for 2 hours. Those flash events, well, I work from 6...

I REALLY hope the data shows how these Flash events have been a great disappointment. Failure of its implementation, failure of its notification method, and failure to achieve its objective, which was to help gear Phoenix Squadron members.
I would say I'm fairly good with committing to logging into SWGOH and actively / religiously get all the energy refreshes and store purchases.
But for the life of me, I have had a very poor hit rate with the Flash events, I believe less then 40-50% participation rate on the events. It does not help when there is no event notification on the landing screen. I think this is an oversight given such how the event had such a small window of opportunity. I'm certain that I've been logged in, and have not even been aware that the event was opened.
I'm sure your analyst will have the big picture. The Flash event from my player's experience, would score this very low on any Net Promoter Score for the game.
Flash events are likely not intended to be solely promotional. I think that the idea behind them is to reward the long-standing and dedicated player base. People have been in the forums asking for additional resources by which to farm gear. The flash event gives that gear at a pretty decent rate, to those who participate.
I would say that the majority of players have been accepting, and even enjoyed taking part in these events. If they were to remove flash events altogether, I doubt that the currently subtle upset would match the outrage of anyone who actually enjoys this new little freebie.
