EVENTS, SHOULD FLASH SLOWLY or FADE in and OUT, on their last DAY!!!!

[R27871171]

I am always getting blindsided (caught by surprise) by the events ending!! I know that you have the times and dates in the events, but, I work, and come in from work to play the game... It's usually like 19:00 server time (same as my local time) and I'm tired, but want to play the game for a couple hours... I play on 3 servers!

I've made friends on all 3 servers! keeping up with 3 chars on 3 servers, between 19:00 and 23:59, 2 or 3 days a week, is very hard to do!...

IF the events would just be highlighted in some fashion, when it's the last day to collect or spend or
participate in the event! It would REALLY, REALLY help me to notice that HEY, THIS Event is fading in and
out, it's on it's last day, it will go away at rollover!! EASY, even I would notice if the event was fading
in and out, or flashing slowly or just a very dark color PURPLE all of a sudden!! And it should be an easy
fix to make, just change all events to dark blue or purple, on their LAST DAY!!! Or, have a small monkey
crawling around on the event icon on it's last day, maybe have it swell up and pop every couple of minutes
on it's last day, just anything to make it

VERY NOTICEABLE that the EVENT IS ENDING tonight!!!

Even just the words, ENDing written across the face of the icon would work.. just some flag to tell everyone
in an instant that HEY THIS ONE IS ENDING tonight at rollover!

Thanks guys, you're the best support ever!!!

theres a check in hot events. you should mark it everyday to get an idea

[R27871171]

cool, guess that will work, haven't even noticed it... tks

so what do i do with all these lucky tree coins i collected, and what about my points i earned in lucky tree???

how do i get to use them?? when do i get to use them??

or the Pumpkins??

the very fact that I and so many others, am stuck with these items, means there's something WRONG with
the current situation... the game may be designed very nicely, and logically, but WE are the REALITY of
the games actual environment; we who are playing the game...

we are the end result of average players around the world, playing the game the way it is now, and the way
WE are NOW!

and WE are getting stuck with all these useless items. Things that we WORKed & even SPENT $ on acquiring; Items that remind us of our all our efforts in collecting them;

Every time we open our character, we see the inventory!! All those items in inventory which we can't use.
We worked hard and played hard, enjoying ourselves with the game and the friendships. Please help us!

We're asking you guys, to help make the game one that WE (the real ones playing the game out here
in the real world) can enjoy and not one that we're starting to RESENT! WE're asking for your HELP!
Please..??

I mean, how hard to write a routine that checks a "scheduling" data file, watches for starting and
ending dates, then adjusts another entry putting a flag on the new and the ending ones, a flag to have
the new one turn or spin or blink slowly once every minute and the ending one to fade out over a
2 min period and then start again.

What language? or what game engine are you guys using?

More blinking and spinning items... blah, lag is bad enough as it is. Change of color might be a better option if it really needs to be done, but... I don't care much, I tend to keep track on when my events end. Tree event, I think, is possible to be back, but will you still have your coins from it... is unknown. And by the way - tree even had a countdown on it's icon, no idea how you missed it's ending, it was written on the icon - 3 days.... 2 days... so on....

changing colours of the events wouldnt be the best idea... reason being is its a nightmare enough to attempt to figure out whats what when youre colourblind
( like this idiot whos typing this XD )

blinking n the flashing? nah. put the time of how many days you got left like Osobena mentioned before me.

you cant miss it then
