I'm kinda disappointed that the extended maintenance is delayed...i usually play late at night but by two am (when it updates for me this time of year) i am either in bed or going to bed, but in anticipation of not being able to get on and play late the following night because of the maintenance, i fought sleep and stayed up even later last night and worked all my horses and got everything done after the update. Now i'm gonna have to do that all over again (assuming they keep the maintenance times similar). Sigh.

Decided to spend all 200 passes from preprod and see how many divines I can get.
Ended up with first one after 30 or so passes

And then... nothing all the way to the end? 200 passes? One divine?

I'm not sure if it's a glitch, or do people on prepod get only one go at the divine to not clutter the server?

Or am I just THAT unlucky?

I haven't put this in a spoiler and I have posted here as the other topic is locked but admin had said they would allow constructive criticism, so here goes.

No doubt this will end up the last post on the page and get unread anyway ... and the powers-that-be (not the mods or even the admin, as they don't make the decisions) don't seem to care to explore other options that would make these new features easier for us, but still achieve what they want.

I don't understand why can't they look at other options for the activation of co-management. I can understand why they want it done the first time, and even periodically, but why *every*single*time* through that acc sharing log out link? They already have the ability to block more than one player on an account with this update, so the account sharing logout could be approached in a different way and they would certainly have no problems in writing a script to do so, even an auto log out after a certain number of minutes/hours of inactivity and then require players to use the link every X number of days. Even a yes/no forced pop-up confirming co-man if you go to leave the site would be better than the current solution.

The acc sharing link is especially annoying as it seems to be bugging ... I logged out that way last night and then worried I hadn't done it, so came back on and used the link again. My friend needed access to one of my skiller's for her comp overnight (different time zones), so that it wouldn't lose prestige and co-man was locked for her, as if I hadn't used the acc sharing link. There is no point in going to Contact, as they'll say I forgot, when I know for a fact I didn't or they'll tell me that co-man wasn't designed for that.

Which brings me to my other question, if co-man was only ever designed for "extended holidays" then why do they allow co-mans to use or purchase BM items as you don't need that for holiday cover looking after horses and ECs? How is it an advantage if friends help other people out with their EC comps, if they need to run them when someone else is in a different time zone when anyone with co-man can do it? Isn't VIP meant to give players advantages and that's why they pay passes for it? Then they wonder why players are upset and act up in the forums, then instead of any meaningful dialogue filtering down from management through admins, the mods have to try to adjudicate something that they have no reasonable explanations for, meaning that everyone gets irate and blames one another.

What and when is the next promo?

Probably tomorrow. As for what the promo is, read over the last few pages, it has been discussed quite a lot.

I'm not on the test server, but I did get the Conductor wandering horse and because of that I had the ability to purchase his coat for one of my horses (while he was in my breeding farm). Not sure if that answers your question, but there's my two cents!

Yep I got Conductor a couple of days ago. (No need to use a spoiler since he's on this server already)

Meanwhile...

@RowanGreen

Amd were actieb

@ nix (and anyone else interested!)

Quiet is Violent, as I said above, the conductor IS on the live version. You can get his coat if/when he visits you.

Is anyone alive on here? I didn't think this event was so engaging
