A late feedback for the Risia & Midwinter games

[Jerevth]

Also that'd basically mean no one would actually need to play the new event, because of a decade of saved-up Risia/Midwinter mats

Same argument as for the poofing Mabar mats.

I thought that was so they could hear the lamentations of the kobolds and children.
"Kobold hate end of night revels. Why you poof candies?"

This is possible, but it would likely be a far longer task.

just offer the trade-in for one thing, like a summon gem
