That being said, I've always found it strange why the event ends on a Sunday instead of their usual Tuesday/Wednesday Server Maintenance days. I'm going to take a guess and say they'll extend it till then.
The last evolving ring event ended without a maintenance. It's coded to work until the last day then Gaga tells you the event is over the day after it ends.

10 points to the Nexon coder who didn't realize there are 31 days in March!

Or maybe it's like
if (todays date > last upgrade date) then do upgrade else no upgrade for you.
I had a feeling this event would be messed up. I wouldn't be too sure about the rings becoming tradeable Sunday either.

Well, I think they WILL make it tradeable (hopefully on Sunday). It would be waaay too messed up if they didn't, even by Nexon standards.

One of my guildies was able to upgrade the ring.
Another alliance member was also able to upgrade the ring, but he already had the potion from the day before.
Just throwing this info out there for speculation.

Same like happened to me the previous event.
Still have the lvl16 untradable evolving ring 1 on my Shadower.
Guess what the GM replied (2 months later... lol...) in a ticket I sent after I clearly explained in 30 lines that Gaga told me I already upgraded the ring today, on the last day, while I still had the upgrade potion in my inventory:
I'm sorry but the event has already ended
Happy Mapling!
So yeah, you ppl are all fcked now, like some were fcked the previous time, Nexon doesn't extend the event and doesn't care to fix it.
Just wait till the next event... and try again... and buy some NX!!!

I'm the guy who made an unnecessary dupe of this thread in general, and yes I usually announce my entrance into a discussion this way.
(really).
Anyway...
I have two important interjections into this...
A. If you already have a lvl 17 ring, do ya think it will become tradeable on the 3rd?
&
B. If nexon totally ignores this, users will totally leave; mainly the half/noob cats who got f'd out of a lvl 17 ring (getting a 16 because of this).
this is sticky....
I'm just sayin'.
Edit:
If all it takes is a 2 hour server check to fix this (server check probably being the wrong term but pineapple it), you would save I estimate 500 ~ 1500 users, 3% of which woould ever buy NX..... I'm good at logic but I suck at math, so you do it Nexon:
3% of 750 users all spending a dollar is how many dollars?
Does that equal the PAY of the guy on yer staff who could probably fix this?
actually, it's prolly not worth yer time.
:f6:

Nice to know I'm not alone.

Gaga April Fool'd us. We can now update our rings.
Somehow, Nexon coded a day to last twice as long I believe -.o?

LMAO, DFO players got a transformation pot to turn into a maple character, 1hr of 2x drop, 1hr of 2x exp, 1hr of +40 all stat, 1hr of reduced cooldown for April fools.
We got... an NPC refusing to work for a day.
