Two things.

1) This game comes from Tencent, CN. If you don't know, there are strict rules on how much time people could stay online. This is the main reason why most events are scheduled during the 19-21, instead of all around the day.

2) The main reason why people believe that bonds and matsuri are tr@sh events is due to bad matchmaking. The real problem is that matchmaking isn't actually *that* bad, but with so much time to join the chance that you could met people around your level are actually lower the higher your power is. As a 270k power, i finish matsuri in about 5-8 minutes. This meant that there is little to no chance to met other whales, along those 150? 210? minutes.
