    While it is a bit disappointing, especially for those of us who did the event on several characters last time and got every item multiple times, I still would rather not look a gift horse in the mouth. It's free perm NX and free All-Star styles, and it's nice of Nexon to give them out again for those who missed the event last time or never managed to get the style they wanted.

    No. Thankfully, we can accept and turn in the quests through the Star notifier on the left side of the screen.

    Ok, and it's nice they are doing this, but that still doesn't change the fact that I still wish they would have updated this round of Maplehood.

    Out of 900 boxes, 511 were x-form/trait potions.
    Also, no Legend pots.
    Dominator Pendant though, so not a complete fail.

    900 boxes??? Wauw...you certainly spammed it alot xD

    Would be nice though if this event would follow up with a cash transfer event soon (i know we just had one..) so we could transfer the nice things that we got on other chars to our main char :D

    Apparently they changed the server times to UTC instead of PST. So basically it's already Wednesday right now and the Tuesday event is over.
    Pissed me off too when I figured this out, completely missed out a day. Real crappy of them to do this without any clear notification.

    And how we were supposed to know about the change of time? I don't play every day so i was expecting i could make the events only the assign days.

    It's been a pain since they made the transfer with the european servers. It make everything confusing

    We do have numerous threads on the time change for various reasons, including the official announcement regarding the time change and the subsequent response. I myself have pointed out that server reset occurs at 4:00 PM Pacific several times. Personally I find it useful because it allows me to catch up if I miss a day (being in California, I can log on both in the morning and at night), but no standardized server time is going to be ideal for every time zone global MS services.
    Generally speaking it's considered to be common knowledge among the community, but even when the game reset in Pacific time we had people wondering what timezone the game was in.

    There is still the possibility of changing in-game times to suit players, though.

    The Maplehood Avatar Box doesn't spawn in our bags? When I went into the Cash Shop today it said the Avatar Box has expired and I was confused. It spawns in the cash shop?

    great, "today" (2/7) is "tomorrow" (2/8) since its after 7pm EST??? Why the heck does the Event calendar say there is "3hrs" left if the New Years coin shop was removed 5 hours ago??? Isn't "2/8" from 7pm 2/7 thru 7pm 2/8??? Missed out on the "Tuesday" event due to the "time zone" factor but the Event calendar should reflect the same thing. More coins to sit on...

    Ugh, I missed the event because, you know, it ends at 6 PM here. >_<;. I hate this time change. I would have never thought to play an event that is for TODAY YESTERDAY at 6 PM, and thought I, you know, would have TODAY to do it. Like we did.
    I could have sworn times were originally shown in PST, per usual, but then changed.
    Sure, I could have done the event yesterday, but did I know? NO. And today, I had until 6 PM. When I'm doing other things, and other people are doing other things (WORK, SCHOOL, EATING). They should have just told us that American players had to do the event yesterday. But they didn't. They expected us to know UTC maths.
    I'm not happy, obviously.
    I don't know who decided to keep the times UTC, but they obviously didn't have the best interests of all of their players in mind. They should have made it so the US servers had PST, and the European one UTC with events reflecting the times for the servers. This new schedule only benefits the people who can play in the morning (not most of us), and European players. Good for them, but awful for the American players.

    Yes. Cassandra even tells you it's there when you turn in the quest.
    (But who reads quest dialog?)

    I see. I must have missed that part when I skimmed it. A loss is a loss. Next time. Thank you for the answer.

    That would be helpfull, because i'm a little lost about the time changes, also i don't live in USA and don't have the possibilities to log in morning and night everyday.
