User blog comment:SolarMist/Conquest: When to start hardcore silver farming/@comment-187.3.89.175-20131227212800/@comment-17760674-20131228042804

At least free players have a better chance at rankings. Without the Let Go button, free players who want to get into the rankings need SWs--aka their saved SWs from a lengthy period of time before the event. With the Let Go button, they just need a lot of silver and time, and they can keep their saved SWs for something else. This allows the silver-rich free players to finally get some nice fruit after laboring a lot.
