Besides storing the event data as entities I want to have some way to get n amount of events in order.  
I thought about creating an entity

```auto
type Events {
events: [Event]
}

```

but it seems like a dirty solution.

Does anyone know if there is a way to accomplish this?

Thanks

Its certainly possible to do that, but having very large arrays like this is not a good practice, you can still create this by pushing to this array each time a eventHandler is run
