Keep telling myself "don't worry! I'll remember for sure!" and this is what I get...

Should've claimed the items the second I got the damn box

    I didn't even get to accept mine yet...OTL

    The quest to accept is there but it won't let me accept it.
    Says: "Please empty at least 1 Use Tab and come back."
    I have a bunch of empty slots in my use inventory.


    Quick! Take pictures before they ninja edit the patch notes.

    it's the 14th for GMS time but UTC time it's already the 15th UTC time 1:59 am tuesday, it would be the only reasonable explanation for it expiring today

    Hi friends, Made a bug report about it here http://forums.maplestory.nexon.net/discussion/15471/unable-to-accept-all-in-one-gift-box#latest . The patch notes says it 15th UTC, but Festival Event Page and Event notifier in-game says it it ends tomorrow 16th UTC. iirc the event was pushed back 1 day, so I think they intended to extend the event by one day as well.

    Of course. The event list can't even be trusted because of UTC. In the end, every single time related issue leads back to UTC. There would be almost no event timing problems if any at all if it weren't for UTC. Nexon hasn't even kept their promises of "event time consistency starting July."

    UTC is cancer. It's either Nexon changes back to an American timezone or we'll keep having to deal with these ridiculous inconsistencies. Because it's more than obvious now that Nexon can't even keep their promises to "make event times consistent" with UTC.

    To be fair, even before UTC, we had many many events that ended at 00:00 instead of 23:59 (on the "last day"), so 24 hours too early.

    I was planning to claim the box today but now it keeps telling me to "Empty 1 Use Tab" even though all my inv slots have free space.

    Well done Nexon, another event screwed up because of UTC.
