2x / 1.5 xp weekends first weekend of the month every month!

[eggmceye]

2x xp weekends, on reg
1.5xp (as in 15x reg) on PD

This is automatically switched on and will run first weekend of the month every month.

Starts : 12am Friday night/Saturday morning SYDNEY TIME - first weekend of the month
Ends: 12am following Sunday night/Monday morning
runs for 48 hours exactly

All times are SYDNEY TIME
That is GMT+10 (or GMT +11 during daylight savings, which is November-April)

There will be a little purple message when you log in to let you know that it is active. You'll get this each time you log in when increased xp is active, and if you don't get the message, increased xp has either not started yet or it's over

Some quick help though I'm looking for something better:
World Clock Time converter
World Clock Time Zones
World Time Buddy

I just tried out world time buddy and the customizable features are nice. According to it 2x xp weekend starts for me on Friday 9 am (I hope I'm right).

It starts the moment it becomes saturday in sydney (i.e., 0000 on Saturday)... which means friday 9am for you is wrong ...

Only going by what that clock says. Seems weird to me as well but I'm not going to rack my head over it.

Or will I?


Idea: Maybe a version of this in initial post for 2x weekends or events popping up.

And just so you know how excited I am at least here's what I think most players are thinking about the 2x xp weekends:

9am fri sounds about right - that's 15hrs behind

oops

[eggmceye]

let's hope it actually works (ie 2x xp actually turns on automatically) because I haven't tested it live and good chance I won't be up at midnight to test and fix it :p

[eggmceye]

ok so it didn't start automatically but should be on now

[Bugbo]

Does the 2XP thing require a server reset before it takes effect or something? Maybe that's why it didn't kick in automaticly?

[Kracky]

Loving all this exp on PD. Any chance we can get different weekends for say Boss spawns x2 (i.e. twice as many monsters are named/bosses) or something else just as fun ?

I smell bacon in the oven for next week I hope. Also hoping I'm not moving next week.....

PREPARE FOR XP ADVENTURE!!!

NOW IS THE TIME TO GRIND! BRING IT ON!!!

[Loughf]

it hasn't started yet, why would you tell them to grind? it's 9:30AM friday. not 12AM saturday

[eggmceye]

he's just postcounting
indeed it starts in about 13 and 1/2 hours

[Keighn]

Well, when isn't it time to grind? At least on pd. That and the first move from apartment is finally over. My back is sore but it won't be next weekend when I move my sis in law out of her Kansas house and move all that crap to Missouri that the pain begins. Just rather relieved that I get another weekend to myself.

[Riksta]

2x this weekend!

[Keighn]

We can only hope.

Reaper no Reaping!
REAPER NO REAPING!!
