whut the hellllll been waiting for 2 weeks for this exp event. i ran home like a stallion galloping through the meadows from school to level my chars. and now there's no exp event?

You got exercise, ne?

[rikai]

Well the EXP event we have to get the tally right at the very end of hte event to see if we hit the magic mark of 100,000 turn in to qualify for the PlaySpan exp event.

So heim, is the tallly you guys are counting the tally announced the whole time ingame or the actual number of coins turned in?
Because the numbers are VASTLY different. One means we'll likely have no exp event event if you combine the totals of all the servers... the other means we completely smashed the 100,000 coin mark to pieces.

Shortly after the ale event was put on the servers there was a global annoucement which stated that the npc was keeping a tally of the coins exchanged. Sadly, I did not get a screenie as proof but I can't have been the only one to have witnessed that.

And the Totals are in for the Green Ale Turnins. The final totals are just over 130,000 combined from all servers!
This means we qualified for the Double Exp Event through Next Wednesday !
Maintenance for Next week will be on Wednesday 4/6/2011 from 3pm - 8pm to allow us to update to VIP settings.
Ymir Wednesday WoE is cancelled for then, so this Saturday's WoE becomes a "bigger deal".

Since you plan to go on with the scheduled date for free to play, is there any definitive information available on the Yggdrasil / Valkyrie restrictions in term of:

• Skills (100 SP Teleport)
• Cards (Creamy, Vitata, Deviling, ...)
• Items

?

Time is running out...

In any case, that's not accurate either.


Even if it counted coins, say you get silver : gold in a 2:1 ratio, so 3 coins for 5 ales. Okay, even if it only counted golds, that's 1 coin per 5 ales. There are WAY MORE than the 150k ales on ymir that the 30k turnin count for the server would imply. I mean, i'm sure Delight/Sentinel members don't hold half the ale on the server.... But we've got 2 people at or close to 30k, and i've got like 17k....

The ale-count is ridiculously inaccurate, and always has been. I suspect it is off by at least an order of magnitude.

I'd love to know how much ale _actually_ was created (per server, preferably) by this event. A good estimate would be to count all the ale on the server. The leftover ale is negligible compared to the amount created during this event, and is more than offset by the ale used during the event.

so will be it be 2x exp till next weds, and then 2x exp put back on the 7th of april till the 14th?

[Pril]

How inaccurate. I've earned well over 30k ales myself from just an hour of farming per day. Well I suppose they need a lesson in counting. 1, 2, 3, 4...

So I've heard a rumor about the free stat/skill resetter coming back after this maintenance. Is this true? (I hope it is)

The rumor I heard was that it was coming back when we go to F2P

[Heimdallr]

When the VIP system goes live we will have the resetter made available for those that didn't use it before.

The counter in-game had some math issues, but we computed the numbers based on the raw data to arrive at the

Ymir 55,000
Ygg 14,000
Valkyrie 58,000

So we get 2x Exp until Wednesday the 6th.

We will have maintenance on Wednesday the 6th from 3pm - 8pm PST.

There was an update to the VIP settings post regarding the taken out multi-client restrition:

And finally we will be distributing codes on Saturday for Monday -Thursday. Any UGC redemption or point conversion done by Midnight PST tonight qualifies.

this just looks like they simply doubled the amout the server counted which is totaly wrong since it counted how often people traded in coins for ales and is no where near the count of ales/coins ingame
since some people gathered 150k ales ( guild leader)
and even i got 50k ales alone
and i know many people with 30k ales
so i come to about 600k ales fromt he few people i know on valk already now and even that is far higher then the "counted" number looks like

who honestly gives a crap, theres an exp event for the people who wanted it

i don't win i would jsut to get the exact number which they said we would get cause that would make it much easyer to make predictions about how long they will last and when the best time for selling them in bulk would be
and who needs exp events anyways?
turn in events are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better for lvling which makes double exp events kinda pointless

[Castella]

Is the Sakray client ever going to allow non-premium accounts to test out Brasilis like it was supposed to? Will Brasilis still be available for testing after the move to free-to-play?

[Tigra]

Either way, I think it was going to be 2x exp. Doesn't matter if there were 1,000 ales or 1,000,000 ales.

I assume these numbers are an april fools joke?

If the data that produced those numbers was raw, it had clearly spoiled. I'm terribly curious as to how many ales were created.
My guess is 1-2 megabeers (ie, millions of green ales) on each of the two larger servers.
