Can we have an extension to the Pool Party?
The amount of points for max tier is ridiculous, and most people don't want to spend REAL money on non-guaranteed rewards, and only half of the players in a game can earn points.

It would be nice, but I doubt it. Honestly though like others have said in different topics about this, riot really chosen a bad week to do an event like this. We had E3 going on, Steam Summer Sale, and Fathers Day throughout this whole week. If they honestly think people would have spent money when games are as low as $5, you got to be kidding yourself! I mean considering how much points we got throughout this whole week I gotta say it's been a blast! We almost hit the last tier, and I would say give us an extra 2-3 days and we could have hit that! They also really should have made it so that losing also gave points and not just winning! I think that is what really made us lose the goal!
The max tier was always meant to be a stretch goal - something theoretically possible but very unlikely.
I think the steam summer sale was probably the biggest blow to the pool party numbers. I don't have any issue with skin prices and have spent 100s of dollars over the years but when I put it next to something like a whole game(even a lesser game or old one) im still most likely going to get more value there. Combine that with the fact that I have to buy the games now to get the price and I can get a skin anytime. This is compounded for me a lot because I have a skin for most champions already so buying a skin basically has me discarding an old one. So while I have no issues with like 975 RP for a skin, its hard to justify paying another 975 for what is effectively upgrading my old skin.
