Esmme 05-26-2010 09:28 PM

We post everywhere for every kind of thing. ^_^ And you donate what you don't need to other people. :yes: Then you receive gifts for doing that! LOL, only they have a glitch with the donating right now .. . :cry:

TO THE MODERATORS:

Sorry to keep spamming this thread, but I really thought ya'll should take another look at my link...maybe sticky-sticky? I think it could help get the data you want. I really don't think anyone has been fixing the machines.

Darn, I have a bunch of gears I don't need.

I am so confused. I read the FAQ but I'm still confused. If there is anyone that can help me you can P.M me. Thanks

No you may not, that would be spam which isn't allowed. :yes:
If you make posts that are on-topic and relevant to the topic at hand, though, you can post to your hearts content. :)

You'll have to be more specific about what you're confused about.

Though, I can point you to this fairly simple outline.

Every forum except Word Games will give you event currency. Though, you're not guaranteed to always get spanners.

ThyFaerieQueen 05-26-2010 10:33 PM

This is going to be a fun event... hehehehe -rubs hands together-

Just reading some of the questions answers my own!!

Larakat 05-26-2010 10:54 PM

This is going to be a great event. Go team Gasket!!

Sensible Cricket 05-26-2010 11:02 PM

Guys guys guys guys. They have said a million times in a million places not to post random chatter here in the FAQ thread.

We're having a lot of bugs this event and some of us are REALLY waiting on answers, and having to wade through chatter comments is not just annoying for us, it's no doubt annoying for the mods, and it's RUDE.

Staff, could we have an update please? Have you guys seen this thread?

Knerd 05-26-2010 11:15 PM

Cricket, please - Nothing within this thread is being forgotten about. When there is a suitable answer, it will be given. Yet continuing to harp on an issue will not get it solved any faster.

We realize that the situation is annoying right now, but please stay calm. If you wish to earn currency and seeds, then the smart idea would be to turn your second profession into Saboteur and sabotage the machines at will. :yes:

Maybe I'll PM a moderator if it gets up to 100 or so and no more people who said 'yes'. They reaaallly can't keep saying it's a problem with people fixing things too fast if the majority (over 97 percent!) haven't been able to fix machines for the majority of today...

I concur. I'd like to see an official statement that the mods do recognise this as a glitch, because we've been told several times that it isn't and it clearly is. ^^;

But sabotaging the machine doesn't work and this has been pretty much proved. :cry:

Knerd 05-26-2010 11:18 PM

If the machine is accepting your spanners and giving you seeds in return - Then the process is working to your advantage. The issues with HP and FP will be dealt with as soon as possible. :yes:

Annalesia 05-26-2010 11:24 PM

I just have a couple questions.
One; where do we post to get seeds? And how do we know when we get them?
Which leads me to my next question, where can we see how much seeds, flowers, gears, etc. we have?

Insane Cricket 05-26-2010 11:24 PM

But even if it's giving us seeds and taking spanners, as the HP isn't changing, isn't that considered exploiting the glitch? You said it works to our advantage, but if that's the case doing it is against the event rules, isn't it?

Sensible Cricket 05-26-2010 11:25 PM

It works in some people's advantage, but what about when you guys DO fix it and we've got no more spanners left? Then the people who need to use gears and flowers are out of luck.

You don't get seeds from posting. You can only get gears, flowers, spanners, and (rarely) tickets from posting.

Seeds are obtained by participating in the missions every 15 minutes or by completing your jobs at HQ. You get 0.25 seeds for each time; 0.50 if you are in power hour.

You can see how many seeds you have in the info bar at the bottom of your screen. This info bar only displays itself in the phoenix jubilee forum, but you can earn event currency in any forum.

Liztress 05-26-2010 11:28 PM

I haven't really read over all of the posts but I was wondering if anyone else had it to when their Power Hour ran out on the first time of the day they used it, did it say to wait 12 hours or 1 hour? Whenever I used it for the first time yesterday and today, I only had to wait an hour before I could activate it again. But once I did the second one, it went back to having to wait 12 hours.

Is this a glitch or was it set up so that people can take advantage of the two Power Hours per day even if they aren't on when the timer is up?

Where does it say how many we have? Mine doesn't have that anywhere. This is what mine reads: Saboteur/[change] Gasket HQ Links Hangar Mission Shed Power Hour. Where do we view how much we have? Is there a way to see how many gears and stuff you have?

Seeds may be earned two ways - By completing missions and by using your event currency to replenish/repair/sabotage the machine. You'll see your currency count right in the toolbar that's sitting at the bottom of your screen. The amounts will be listed right underneath "Links, Hangar, Mission, etc." You'll know that you got more seeds as soon as you see your seed count go up. :yes:

Nope - All you're doing is being a good Saboteur. Everyone has the opportunity to collect spanners and sabotage the other team's machine, therefore no one has an advantage over anyone else.

Just like with all the event currency, you'll just have to work to collect more. :yes:

Keyori 05-26-2010 11:30 PM

Are you sure you are seeing all of the bar? It should look like this:

Maybe the bottom is being cut off?

Annalesia 05-26-2010 11:31 PM

Since I don't have that second career can I choose another one? Can you have two jobs at once? Mine says Saboteur/[change]... mine doesn't have that gray area. And the 'hour' goes down where the gray should be. How can I change it?

You can have two jobs. And the way you describe the userbar is like how it appears for me when I use my iPod Touch to view Mene. That might be a browser issue.

Wait wait, first you said it worked in our advantage, now you're saying it doesn't. Which is it? And that doesn't change the fact that you're basically encouraging us to take advantage of a glitch, which is a bannable offence.

Also, having to work harder to collect more after having worked hard up until now hardly seems fair. Is this event going to be extended (as previous ones have) to make up for the fact that we've had a full day's worth of glitching?

Annalesia 05-26-2010 11:34 PM

Woah...the gray just showed up. Problem solved. (: thank you so much.

Okay, nevermind. It just disappeared again. How can I fix this?
