    The 2x event is around 25 minutes in already and i am seeing nothing! average exp spirit and possibly less loot then normal. I am lucky to get loot it seems at the moment and even then its nil in amount, like 100 or so coins and possible 1 random loot. I hope you can fix this soon because during the last 2x event i only got 2x exp and spirit SOMETIMES but almost never and 2x loot.

    WTB official thread?

    Why is it necessary to have one? Isn't mentioning it on the website good enough? Obviously not for someone like you.

    Well sorry but i am both tired and hate clocks that don't simply say 0:00 from 1-12 not 1-24 I wouldn't be surprised though if this 2x bombs as bad as the last one though, lots of people complained it wasn't affecting them. Only really different is the time span this one will last.

    No I just don't leek when things fail, especially since the mods didn't seem to have luck to fix the last 2x event when it broke to work for everyone. This time it will only last a few days so it break then boom lose out no chance to get in on it. Plus I am still very miffed about the jungle ruins, bloody thing still not been debugged and i had to put up with a ton of glitchs setting me back last night -_-

    The rumors are true, although the duration of the bonus has been extended to Monday at 10:30am PST--

    And we'll have a public announcement posted today on the main website :)

    Just... make it permanent already. At least try to bring some semblance of stability to any given market. And... you can pretend when you say... "of course, this will be the standard drop rate and the system will not support a higher drop rate without completely re-writing the code".

    b:surrender
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.

    A) It didn't break last time.
    B) Mods have nothing to do with it.
    C) Only GMs can turn that on or off.
    This time it will only last a few days so it break then boom lose out no chance to get in on it.
    To quote Dyskrasia, "lol, looking for any excuse to be negative, aren't you?" b:chuckle

    It didn't break last time, it won't break this time, and you just read the time wrong, which is no big deal. Don't worry about it, it'll be fine.
    Plus I am still very miffed about the jungle ruins, bloody thing still not been debugged and i had to put up with a ton of glitchs setting me back last night -_-
    Care to be more specific? I'm not aware of any bugs in this either. Perhaps it's not a bug, and if you did some research or asked in a new thread someone would explain the problem to you. I had some problems with Jungle Ruins at first too, then I realized the fire was killing me. b:embarrass b:chuckle Lag can be a problem there too.

    Try not to assume that there's a problem when there might not actually be one, and you might actually find out how to deal with it.

    Thanks San, but this thread was made long before the new announcement.
    Why is it necessary to have one? Isn't mentioning it on the website good enough? Obviously not for someone like you.

    See above, there wasn't anything on the forum or website at the time this thread as made. b:bye
