Will do, though the trouble is that most of my upgrades run >7 days (and boosts are expensive) so it usually comes down to chance, either:

1. Rats, by the time my upgrades complete, the event will be over, or ...
2. Whew, the completion of the upgrade I started last week now happens to fall into an event window.

In either case, I don't have much control over the situation.

It's a bit like the Phylarch events, they're nice to have and on avg. will net 20 to 100 Dr. running unattended, but there's little I am able to do to optimize the outcome. Once in a while, one can boost the last few hours of a dev or phylarch task so as to complete it before an event closes ... .

Although I don't play any other Plarium games, I seem to have noticed that, at least on occasion, event schedules become available. Even a weekly preview would help a lot IMO and get players to schedule upgrades that will complete while the event is still active.
