Celebrate the 8th Anniversary with 2x EXP & Drop!

I think they messed up because 12AM is 3AM here and it's only 2AM.

I'm asking, wait a sec. ^^

Yeah basically they timezone failed (but it should have been fixed), it's starting in 50 minutes (same time tomorrow). 3PM in Perth, 5PM in Sydney < those are the time you're looking for.
Sorry about that!

Dunno how reliable she is for information, but yeah.

To add on:

If it's not activated tonight/today, the time for tomorrow's 2x will be extended.

EDIT:

2x should start a little before 2 AM Pacific time and run until 4 AM Pacific time (7 PM - 9 PM AEST).
An hour has been added Sunday's Australia 2x event, so it's now set to run 12 AM - 3 AM Pacific time (5 PM - 8 PM AEST).

Can [MENTION=10355]Girasol[/MENTION] maybe provide some insight as to why Nexon keeps pairing these 2x events with the double miracle times when they know very well their servers can't handle the load? Everytime this happens Scania along with the other populated servers come grinding to a halt, disconnects and all.

So the mass levelling spree I was going to do today was kinda cut short after 7 minutes because of being disconnected for the hack reason, due to the mass lag.

Seriously, x2 exp and drop and miracle time is a horrible combination, there is absolutely no reason for it other than to get more people online at once. And all that does is make the x2 event far less useful due to the lag and disconnects, it's annoying.

like 3 weeks of planning for this x2 event and it's scuppered by bad planning on nexon's part. sheesh.

It's not even populated servers. Renegades was getting massive lag as well and that server is FAR from "populated".

We're going to try not to do that again. It didn't work out so well, did it? =/

I would suggest having them one after the other. 2x First, miracle time second. That way the people still training in 2x overlap the login of folks coming in for miracle time. Then you can do your user count in that first ten minutes of overlap to see how your ratings are and still get the benefit of both events.
