An apology would be nice

[whitetiger]

I have played this game off and on for over 9 years.

The other day I made a comment in chat using my current main - dirtleague

I mentioned playing thru several 1000+ hour 2x events. Talk about getting reamed, most every player called me a liar and troll. Several Mods joined in. Rapota was the worst stating that there was NEVER more than one event where 2x went above 1000 hours and that event had just ended. (Wlarc hitting 150 archery.) Stop lying and trolling.

I mentioned playing thru several 1000+ hour 2x events.

A single birthday event is the cause for the time 2x exp timer went over 1,000 hours. Additional 2x Experience Potions were consumed during said celebration.

When every online player is stating different than you, maybe consider you may be wrong or using a different reasoning?

A 2022 birthday celebration was the cause of the first and only time the 2x exp timer ever went over 1,000 hours. Additional 2x Experience Potions were consumed before that timer expired, but the the cause of the event and what drove the timer over 1,000 hours was a single cause: a birthday.

An apology would be nice

Not sure what sort of apology you expect from me, but I have absolutely nothing to apologize to you for.

We didn't JUST have a 1000+ hour 2x event?

Now the ONLY 1000+ hour event was back in 2022.

Since the 2x exp timer details are documented in the #2x-alerts channel of RPG MO’s Discord server, I am certain you will have no trouble finding that supposed second event.

OK, let's try this

I drop 510 hours
with 10 hours left on the countdown timer I drop 510 more hours.

Since the timer is still running that amounts to 1020 uninterrupted hours.

Your precious timer will only show a 510 and later a 520 because it only records time left.

Your precious timer will only show a 510 and later a 520 because it only records time left.

That is the how everyone else viewed it and referred to it, thus the confusion. Everyone in [EN] that I have seen would refer to those as two separate 510-hour events as the catalyst is almost-certainly separate, but it seems you view it differently.

2 separate 510 hour events even though the timer for the second event would register as 520 hours.

So it does not matter how long a run lasts in reality, it does not count unless ALL the time is dumped on in a manner that makes your precious timer react properly.

How long did 2x run uninterrupted in my example?

I will ask once more just to make sure you have a chance to answer.

If someone dropped 510 hours of 2x then with like 10 hours left in that run another 510 hours was dropped, how many hours of uninterrupted 2x time would have happened when the run was over?

My answer to your most recent question does not matter, as it differs from the origin question that set off this entire thing. What I describe as an event and what you describe as an event are not the same.

To use a non-RPG MO example to describe your opinion as you described it:

• If we have a Christmas party on 2024-12-26 but never stop partying, keeping it rolling through our planned New Year's Eve party, we had a single event.

There is no point in arguing further, as I do not share the same view.

Goodbye.
