Thanks for the heads up, I'll check it out :)

tekchip said over 3 years ago

Yes because rekindling an MMO addiction is definitely the best thing to do when the economy is crap and you have no job. I'm going to have to pass. I don't want to be an MMO junky. I'm going back to sniffing my Muramasa coke.

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

You could always do like one person I know and start another trial account every week.

By the way, yes, you can also log into expired trial accounts this weekend.

mnightwind said over 3 years ago

Hmm.. I might just have to see if I have some baddies to take down :3

BiggusDickus said over 3 years ago

But I'm already paid up! Doh!

Oh, wait! Double XP! :D

Svoboda said over 3 years ago

Does this mean you'll be playing Sith Cat this weekend?

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

I'm afraid to log into that account. She's level 30 and trial accounts are limited to level 13 now. I don't know if she'll get demoted and kicked from the LoC.

Svoboda said over 3 years ago

I think it just stops you from joining a supergroup or training up a level.

jimothyjim said over 3 years ago

This isnt so helpful being in my spotlight on the 13th :P

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

Spotlights aren't perfect when it comes to breaking news, and I can't nudge-all anymore.

Svoboda said over 3 years ago

The event is over. Nothing left to see here. Move along.

SeoulMage said over 3 years ago

LOL. I saw it in my spotlight today.

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

It shouldn't have. I thought I sent you a nudge.

Svoboda said over 3 years ago

"Better late than never" is usually a good rule, but in this case...

futureBrian said over 3 years ago

Yeah. I found it too late.

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

Well, it's too late to worry about it now.

jimothyjim said over 3 years ago

Would it be wrong to keep this post alive just to continue spreading the disappointment? :P

WILDMAMMOTH said over 3 years ago

@jimothyjim No, they all must learn the cruel reality of the universe somehow.

tekchip said over 3 years ago

@WILDMAMMOTH Its true. They have to leave the basement some time or another.

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

I would never leave the basement during double XP. Would you?

WILDMAMMOTH said over 3 years ago

@LordXenophon For beer, certainly.

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

I don't drink beer during double XP. I drink coffee.

On the other hand, I will admit to having left the basement for coffee and broadband at the internet cafe.

Serthy said over 3 years ago

@wildmammoth, WTP beer pong PST :P lol

Svoboda said over 3 years ago

@Serthy I assume you're either under Atlas or in Pocket D?

SeoulMage said over 3 years ago

@LordXenophon I can vouch for that. I remember selling you a triple Americano and an all day pass on Saturday. It was the easiest order all day.

MichelleSavage said over 3 years ago

...and then it showed up in my spotlight.

Svoboda said over 3 years ago

Took it long enough.

jimothyjim said over 3 years ago

Great success though :P

Svoboda said over 3 years ago

I wonder how long this is going to keep showing up in people's spotlights and sending people here to be disappointed.

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

Possibly until the next free weekend, when it will suddenly fail to disappoint and will instead be ignored by all until it's too late.

Cybrwyzyrd said over 3 years ago

There was double XP?
/e facepalm

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

Make sure you don't facepalm with the same hand you're using to handle your chips.

WILDMAMMOTH said over 3 years ago

@LordXenophon Also a good idea not to facepalm with the hand that's holding the beer can.

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

At least not until you've finished your beer.

Svoboda said over 3 years ago

Yeah. And rinse out the can before you crush it. You don't want drunken ants.

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

I'm more worried about how my uncles behave when drunk.

Svoboda said over 3 years ago

Your uncles probably behave better than my aunts.

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

Not when they drink.

MichelleSavage said over 3 years ago

Should I ask what happens when your uncles and her aunts drink together?

Svoboda said over 3 years ago

You probably shouldn't.

MichelleSavage said over 3 years ago

So, how long until this post is up to date again?

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

I'm not sure when the next free weekend will be, but they are usually scheduled shortly after an issue, so that would probably be around February.

Svoboda said over 3 years ago

I thought there was a schedule of those posted on the NCSoft website somewhere, but I can't find it. All I can find is something about the Winter Event coming up, and the Valentine's Day event after that.

LordXenophon said over 3 years ago

I believe that was one of Positron's blog posts.
