Some of you may have seen a few of our Game Masters running events over the course of the day today, Thursday, August 1, 2013. They were just getting started! Through the month of August our Game Master Staff would like to show their appreciation for our players by hosting a series of events. Starting tomorrow, August 2nd, our GMs will be running a variety of events on all worlds, between the hours of 9:30 AM and 6:00 PM Pacific.
What events, you ask? Well, its a list of some of your favorites, including: Ola Ola, Physical Fitness, Coconut Harvest, Treasure Hunt, Hide and Seek, Trivia, and Monster Summon.
To the victors go the spoils!
The first three winners of Ola Ola, Physical Fitness, Treasure Hunt, and Hide and Seek will be awarded 10 Unleashed Coins!!! Each player in the winning team for Coconut Harvest will receive 10 Unleashed Coins!
For Trivia, three questions will be asked each round. The first one to answer the question correctly wins yielding three winners each Trivia round! 10 Unleashed Coins will be endowed to these three individuals.
The loot from Monster Summon events will be its own reward.
As a special thank you to all of those players who helped us give these events a test run today, we will be rewarding todays winners with the above prizes, where applicable.
Disclaimer(s): Due to staffing limitations on the weekends it is unlikely we will be able to provide the events for you on Saturday or Sunday, though that may change if we are able to make the appropriate accommodations.
To help encourage more participants we are limiting players to one win a week. You are welcome to join us for other events, but we would like to spread the wealth a bit. Keep it clean! In the event that a winner has been found to be in violation of our policies or Code of Conduct they may be disqualified. This goes for character names as well as potential infractions against ones account.
WINNERS LIST
To celebrate all winners we will be posting Winners List for the previous weeks winners on the forums.
See you in game, Maplers!

Had an event in Broa today for Physical Fitness. I finished second, but the GM never showed up. Everyone got tele'd to Henesys, and just left after about 20 minutes. I never saw or heard the GM's name at all; just random blue notices.

Yes. Today was just a test to get some kinks worked out. As I said in the Events post the Game Masters plan on awarding today's participants too, as a show of thanks.

I noticed messages in Bellocan asking for players to talk to Jean - I was surprised to hear that because I remember Girasol telling me those events were broken a few weeks ago after the jump quest GM event. Glad to see they were fixed!

What do you mean by broken? The Pietro NPC at the end of the event map still doesn't teleport you out of the map. That's the only broken thing I remember.

I could be remembering incorrectly, but I could have sworn the NPC that took you into event maps were broken - which is why they had you whisper, and they warped you in (and out) manually.

Ah, yeah. You're right, I forgot about that part. I'm surprised they didn't fix Pietro along with it.

Just got into a "treasure hunt" GM event.. I've never even heard of it before, and I can't find any videos of it. Wishing I had turned fraps on now.
Jean describes the game - boxes in a bunch of maps, tons of hidden portals.. supposed to find "treasure documents" in each field?
I think I found all of the hidden maps, some near the end of the timer where there were boxes everywhere (meaning I was the only one to find it), yet I never found these "documents."
I'm curious as to how you're supposed to win it? Since I got 2 coins and the GM said they would be "visible at the winner's circle"

Was the name of the map Find the Jewel? I did something similar when Girasol was still here, but it seems the original Find the Jewel had you collecting marbles or something instead of documents. Too bad I didn't take a picture of the actual event with the boxes, but yeah, I couldn't find the documents either.

Yep, that was the map.
The boxes dropped pinnacle-looking scrolls and I got GFA 15% (+3att) and earring int 15% (gave same stats as 10%)
Most of the boxes gave crap, though. Another thing to note was Omok sets.

This GM Event was the WOAT. I don't even think a GM was present during the actual event, was just in the hidden street before the actual event asking if we were ready with blue text boxes.
At least I got 2 coins.

It kind of sucks how the questions for these trivia events are pretty much always the same =/

We need Zelkova grade questions. Or at least a GM that steps outside of the Nautilus area or Rien.

5-6 Empresses, some Von Leons, some Chaos Pierres, a Vellum (not sure if it was Chaos or not), and some other pomegranate.

I pop in on a boss summon occasionally, but other than that I don't usually participate in the GM events. I wish they could do them on multiple channels at once, as the boss summon usually turns out to be a laggy clusterpineapple.
