I get it --
From where I sit, enough with the hype, enough with the cryptic remarks, enough with the cutesy teaser memes... just...enough already. Give us a firm timeline on when the event begins/ends and I don'...

IMHO, the event started when we were all given Luke shards to unlock 2 months ago. Should've been farming the main characters from ANH since then of you didn't already have them.
Edit: typo.
Except that a lot of the player base doesn't read the forum. They don't see the hints and memes.
And those who do read the forum have still had to farm phoenix squad for Thrawn, empire for R2, improve their existing raid teams, and so on and so on. We've been pulled in so many directions that we know we need to go in that arbitrarily going in a different direction on the speculation that you might need this character for an event that should be taking place maybe in three or four months is really kind of absurd if you think about it.
As soon as they gave us Luke for the anniversary I started farming him and got him to 7* within a month because they said I'd need him. I've been farming Old Ben since they said we'd need him--not some vague cryptic hint, not player speculation (sure, players were right about this, but just look at the sheer number of things y'all have been wrong about and tell me scepticism doesn't make sense)--and I'm at 30/65 to 5*. I did the math and saw that if this event lasted two weeks I could probably get him to 7* with the pack, but now why bother?
I'm not quitting. I'm not throwing a tantrum. I'm not demanding anything of the developers. I'll get him next time and that's fine with me.
What I'm doing is registering my discontent with how this event was handled. At least with Phoenix Squad we had a decent heads up and got enough time to farm. I didn't get Thrawn, either, but I don't mind because they--in my opinion--handled that event well. They added double drops, they put characters in the shard shop, I think there was a pack available (I didn't buy one, so I don't recall, but I definitely remember having to scroll a long way to get to my bronzium packs). They did none of that for this event and I think that's a bad idea so I'm telling them. Now get off my case for saying I'm just whining--people are allowed to be disappointed.
