I've been kind of confused by the low number of users online during Vesnali.

The numbers I've seen have been between 400-500 during the day and 200-300 at night, which is pretty typical of non-holiday numbers. Plus I would have thought there'd be more people quarantining, even though that's letting up in some parts of the world.

Is Vesnali just not that popular?

Mm, it does seem very quiet. The holiday has even been (mostly) error-free. :o

Part of it, I think, is that you can just dump a tonne of flowers all at once. Sure you need to be online to collect the flowers, but maybe people have left-overs from previous years? also there did seem to be a few more people earlier in the event.

Things have kinda dwindled since Masq... Sometimes you see 600 or more online but it doesn't last long. Not much to do during Vesnali and there's not much else going on right now so maybe some people have a hard time keeping their attention to Subeta?

I guess you guys are right - it's not a very active event when there isn't a plot going on. Kinda sad or anti-climatic though. Makes me wish for a more involved plot at some point later this year.

Personally the events where you have to find floating items ain't my cup of tea and the whole bouquet process seemed tedious (it's my first Vesnali ever)! Consequently I wasn't on much... I wonder if some people had similar reasons.

I buy cheap flowers all year and dump them by the tens when the holiday starts. It's easier.
