{Scroll down for suggestion this is more explication at 1st..also sorry if this is a bit rant like at start}
Not sure if this should go in Suggestions or WvW but here we go. As by now most of WvW is pretty balanced so it seems save for some server with OVERWHELMING numbers such as the WvW one I’ve seen (not relay a fault but still gets boring seeing the outnumbered nearly 100% of the time). Not the point we can still take keeps and towers sometimes but my main problem is even if we managed to get enough people on to take the center castle we would be zerg rushed by other teams or such. Now I have heard that sometime they take the castle “In the morning” they say…not specifying a time as a large number of us probably have other stuff to do in Life IE (work, kids, school, etc) dose pose a problem for other to 1) enjoy camping the castle and working on the title, 2) ever hoping to get the world complete map. Thus bringing me to the idea I had:
[Suggestion part]
Either possible create some event that happens in the castle (rebellion, dragon….pie toss….crumbling walls) that makes it where the defending world has either to compete the event to keep the castle or it goes back to neutral.
Wreaking walls for the event could be a part too as would make it essayer for other to cap during event and thus giving more balance to those who don’t have nearly half the server on WvW.
Time could be ever 2 hours or so? That way when the massive zerg teams are on they won’t have it capped for 5 months strait because not everyone on ever server gets on at the same time.
This is only a suggestion as least from my perspective it will be a long time before I can Finnish this map. (as for those who will either troll or suggest don’t be a noob just get more peeps its not from a lack of trying so be kind this would also make a fun event for everyone even if you did cap it as appose to flipping camp and towers all day you would have to stop and defend the castle thus balance as no one world for lack of point loss would have that much time to dedicate to the defense of the center or they loose ground elsewhere doing so.
Let me know what you think if this sounds like a good idea, work for everyone for basic part. Every few hours castle reset or event happens making it easy to cap, you can hold center or risk losing camps/towers while other world take advantage of your distraction.

WvW needs less PvE, not more.
Also, why should someone’s work be less or more valuable depending on when they get off? If a guild takes Stonemist and holds it for 3 hours right before primetime, their server already has Stonemist and can pick up the slack; if they hold it for 3 hours and then get off in the middle of the dead zone, they lose it without any resistance.

Kind of why I would rather see this set up. It’s voluntary, offers risk vs. reward.

Just have 1 orb in 3 parts protected by the NPC camps in Eternal Battlegrounds(have an orb champion protecting it). Make this orb only storable at SMC and worth a certain PPT. If all 3 orbs are held for over a certain length of time, a Legendary Dragon is summoned and will attack SMC to retrieve the orb. Give this dragon a higher than average loot table, because at this point, the server that’s met all the criteria has earned it. In this instance I could see Legendary Dragons working. This could add several layers of new dynamics into Eternal Battlegrounds, make holding SMC more worthwhile, and maybe add a little more “epic” to EBG.

Reposted in the suggetion fourm.

I just figure this will give other a chance to get the map complete making it a little more fair for those server that don’t have 1000 people in WvW any giving time. It complies with making the people who want map complete out of WvW as they still have to get involved, and 2 add new aspect of fun to a somewhat stagnate WvW at the moment.
