"no one likes to read tons of events that are long gone and out of that, find the valuable infos"

U-man, please stop speaking for everybody, you are not everybody. You know who finds these event guides useful? I do, as do a lot of moderately experienced to veteran players.

You know what would be the height of idiocy? Rewriting every new event guide--which is filled with predictions based on the best available info, templates of past events, and all the other sort of information to help people to make their plans with the best possible guesses ABOUT THAT SPECIFIC EVENT--and replacing them with a compact new player's guide. Especially when there are already new player's guides.

This is just my opinion, so take it as you will. Helping newbies is a worthwhile cause--helping idiots is not. A newbie is someone who is new to the game. They are ignorant about a lot of game-specific information, but they're not stupid. We can help them with basic information, and by showing them how to find more information.

An idiot is stupid. They don't know how to think for themselves. We can help them once by spoon feeding them all of the important information, but by the next event, they'll be lost if we don't spoon feed them again. We don't need to design this wiki for idiots, but you don't seem like you'll be happy until we do.

A newbie doesn't need to be told that winning an event is hard. In the comments and the wiki, people repeatedly say "SAVE YOUR FUCKING RESOURCES IF YOU WANT TO DO THE EVENTS." The wiki lists the exact quest path as soon as it is known, and often lists examples of past quests before the new one is released.

A reasonably smart newbie can look at the guide, notice a bunch of quests that tell you to "Level up Light cards" a few dozen times in total, and then search the wiki for info on how much it costs to level up cards. They can go to the guide and see people talk about typical mojo values needed to win the daily tournament, look at the mojo values of doing stuff, and estimate how much money/cards/items they need to hit those values. More importantly, a reasonably smart newbie would know that every situation is different, and boilerplate advice is at best a loose guide.

An idiot is beyond help, at least on the long term. You suggest a disclaimer that you need "750,000 gold" and "1000 rubys" to do an event. That might work well for the idiot the first time. What about the next time? What happens when the idiot enters an event with 750k gold and 1000 rubies, but he's already gotten all the cheap levels and seductions on his cards, and that 750k gold doesn't get him nearly as far when it costs upwards of 50k per level? What happens when the next event is the one with all the green artifacts everyone is waiting for, and suddenly guys who have been saving rubies for years are dropping 1600 at a time in week 3, doubling their cups score to slip into Top 500?

When that idiot is complaining that he followed your disclaimer and stil lost, will you be back here, groveling for his forgiveness because you didn't keep spoon feeding him information, doing all of the thinking for him?
