    First non-human reply!

    The latest manual patch appears to be: Patch 815-816 13.4MB (14010788 bytes)
    That's average-sized.

    This patch hasn't been officially listed yet.
    : Would you rather have a hover-board or jet-pack, and why?
    I would rather not decide.

    Hover Board. Especially if its Sonic Riders/Z.Gravity Extreme Gear type. As for why? Because you can't do awesome tricks with a Jetpack of course!

    I would prefer a hoverboard because i need my hands free for smooshing mobs. I would really like to see some all class flyers though to add a bit of variety.

    Can I interest you in discussing the premature expiry of Anni promo codes instead? :) The codes appear to be expiring 24 hours before they're suppose to. I tried letting you know in the week 2 anni thread, but I suspect you don't read it anymore. This is my last ditch effort to let you know :
    There is something wrong with the expiry times. I tried to redeem the Wed code on Friday night (15 mins past midnight,so technically Saturday morning) and it was already expired, even though it was suppose to expire on Saturday midnight. I should have another 23 hours to spare. Here is an earlier post I made with forum time stamp on it to show I'm not making numbers up :



    BTW, would like to hear from Sparkie on this.



    Maybe one of you mods can contact Sparkie about the premature expiry problem. :)

    Yes he did respond, but unfortunately he thought the problem was only with the Friday code. I logged in on Friday night and the Wed code was expired. I already got the Thurs and Fri codes since I logged in on Friday night.

    See the part in bold :

    The problem is not just the Fri code. I believe its all the codes expiring 24 hrs early. And in my particular case, it was the Wed code that I missed because I had tried to redeem on Friday night so that I could redeem the Thurs and Fri codes even with codes expiring 24 hours early.

    (Plus I'm only guessing that Thurs and Fri codes are expiring early based on other replies, since I redeemed early enough to get those codes and was unaffected.)

    I choose Jet-pack. No more traffic! No more waiting for that silly elevator and no more awkward moments in elevator!

    Best of all... you can pass gas whenever you feel like! It'll just add fuel to the flames >:D

    Jet-pack, logical choice. All the capabilities of a hover board plus true actual flight.

    "15 minutes past midnight so technically saturday morning." I want you read what you said there, specifically the bold. 11:59PM is the LAST minute of any day. So, by saying the code expired at Midnight 9/20, well that seems to be exactly when it did. Whether Sparkie meant 11:59pm 9/20 is a different topic. But I'd like to point out that you tried to redeem the code on the 9/20, 15 minutes past midnight. So. Just throwing it out there for the nitty gritty.

    It appears the new system must be extremely picky with the times and dates. Which could possibly by why things are expiring early. Because remember; they used to always say 11:59PM.....

    You mean the expansion that gets released in CHINA tomorrow? WE won't get the English version for months. Earliest would be right before Christmas.
