How could they "save" the event?

Problem you have is the people who've blow X amount of donuts on this crap and then EA giving it away.

For me they should refund everybody their donuts back and then give them back all the eggs they earned to then purchase what they actually want with the eggs.

I spent a lot of money to have the stuff at the TIME that i wanted it, and not to wait. Those of us who blew X amount of donuts are well aware that EA ALWAYS makes things at least a little (and sometimes a LOT) easier, often sells things for less or gives things away.

We knew that. We chose to ignore the past. For me, it doesn't matter that someone else gets it cheaper. I got what I paid for at the price I agreed to at that time. Its their turn to do the same -- get what they pay for at the price they agree to at the time they buy it. And if someone comes along even later and they get it for free, that's life. Happens all the time.
