Something is wrong with this attendance.
According to the in-game calendar, it runs 28 days - but no reward is given for days 21-28.

The attendance is, of course, not mentioned at all in the Patch Notes.

What's going on?

Edit: Also, why are the rewards different in Reboot and non-Reboot?
On day 8, non-Reboot get a Character Slot, but Reboot get elixirs. (On day 19, both Reboot and non-Reboot get Character Slots, so it's not like this reward is somehow not allowed on Reboot).
On day 13, non-Reboot get a Special Medal of Honor, but Reboot get elixirs again.

    It's listed as Hot Week in the event tab even.
    And in the patch notes the dates for the ring event is wrong. Everything is wrong, as usual.

    Usually that means it has an opportunities for people who don't log on everyday to catch up. Attendance has been like that a few times before, but regularly there's only 1-3 catch up days but not a whole week.

    They usually don't show that extra time in the attendance calendar, though. Only in the top bar that says the dates.
    Why would they put places for daily stamps, beyond the 20 days of rewards?

    The strategy to have simplified patch notes seems to be backfiring.

    What is bothering me most is the changes in prizes for Reboot versus non Reboot.

    Really getting tired of seeing this happen with items that really don't need to be changed.

    It feels like the real stratagy was to help whoever writes up these things be more correct with information by giving even less detail in the posts, which clearly hasnt worked out well.

    I believe this because no player has ever said that the patch notes gave "too much info" or needed "to be simplified"

    They've been caught copy-pasting from Orange Mushoom blog, and they google translate KMS patch's word to word, and Nexon NA still manages to screw up.

    Stock up on them.

    We had the same thing in RED: coins, or vouchers for those coins, were given out before the patch itself (and the shop) to generate more hype.

    LOL I swear, if I didn't do DLOD, I wouldn't have known there was an attendance event.

    I agree, these patch notes are sub par.

    You have to read the event book in game to see what's happening,
    but then 90% of the time you have no idea how to do the events properly.
    I think this attendance doesn't appear in the event book in-game either.

    Yeah ever since the condensed patch notes thing, I just cross check the events in game and in the patch notes. Then I pray I can figure out how to do it. But for attendance.....

    What they^ said. I went WTF when I saw it, thought I simply overlooked it from the patch notes AND event window. But I didn't.

    LOOOOOOOL. God that would be so annoying if that happened. The rewards are always better near the end.

    So you'll stock up on them and get hyped for V patch coming soon.
