Midweek event not fulfilable (BUG)
Referring to above but to the
German
French
and Spanish
entry regarding this bug.
English below:
@WRG Ben @WRG_JOE have obviously come up with another event that is impossible to fulfil - which is very frustrating.
We're talking about the event that starts on Tuesday. These "midweek" events usually run for 2 days - although it's not clear whether this one is supposed to run for a whole month.

The tasks seem partially achievable - but one thing absolutely NOT:
Improving 100 different crew members seems unsolvable to me.
"Increase the level of 100 crew members"
In the event that I receive two reward crew (better than rank 1,500) at each event (1x 5* gold, 4x 4* purple), I get a maximum of ten new crew members per month.
Now of course I could level 90 crew members at the one star or two star level, but surely this is not the intention?
How should the event be played?
Where do I get 100 crew members? Apart from 100 additional crew slots, which are necessary to upgrade 100 crew members.
Customer support answered me the following:
However, this does not address the questions of duration, necessary crew slots, etc. and is therefore a meaningless answer / text module.
It is also noticeable that English-speaking players will be given a completely different task than German or French or Spanish-speaking countries / players!
Germany / Austria / Switzerland: "Increase the level of 100 crew members"
France, Canada and others: "Improve 100 teammates" (Améliorez 100 équipiers)
Spain / Mexico: "Haz subir de nivel a 100 tripulantes" ("Level up 100 crew members")
USA / Canada / UK: "Level up crew 100 times" ("Level up crew 100 times")
It is easy to level up ONE crew member to / by 100 levels.
It is impossible to level up 100 crew members (by even 1 level) simply because we don't get that many crew members "that easily".
Players in the USA are again favoured, all other players are discriminated against by never being able to reach goals.
(By the way, for 7 years since the game exists with the Gauntlet, which always ends at 2 o'clock at night in Europe. Suggestions for improvement to start further Gauntlets 12 hours later were rejected because it would overload the servers and would not work - but instead new functions are constantly being added, which also cause data traffic on the server. It would be very pleasant if a gauntlet competition ended at 2 pm ... so that players at work can also finish something like this during their coffee break and not oversleep - but that's another matter)
PS: Maybe it would be a good idea, to hire (maybe on freelance basis) a language support specialist to sort out this quality of service issues? This is about renaming cards, events and such issues where it is really unclear WHAT the game is requiring of the players.
In this case it is 3 against 1 (I presume), giving three times the wrong instructions?

Customer support answered me the following:
These events may seem difficult, but are always designed to be achievable, meaning that once you can view the event and milestones, you have the ability to accumulate and invest your resources so that you can achieve the goals. In this case for levelling up the crew, you can collect all the items in advance so that you can use them as soon as the event is active.
I can assure you that the milestones are deliberately made achievable - not necessarily easy, but achievable with the right preparation.

It is level crew 100 times.
Ex.
One could level one crew 99 times and one other crew once.
(one crew maxed is 99 times, not 100)
Or, level 100 crew once. (Each crew would be level 2)
I have captains who play both french and english depending on what platform they are on and I doubt the achievements roll back for them depending on what language setting is chosen.
As far as translating mishaps go, there are so many in this game! I'm pretty sure players can go ahead and complete even if the name is slightly misleading. People are unfortunately used to it by now.
