I'd like to see a game option setting for no events at all. Even some events that are not Mega-events are disruptive enough to mess up the game for me (like, losing 1 of my four planets to a criminal syndicate or cult or something). People who like them can leave them on, people who don't can turn them off... I really like Loupdinour's suggestion, pasted below! 5.
