Quest-A-Thon: Coming Soon!!!
Are you ready to quest because we’re having another Quest-A-Thon! Starting at 12:00am on August 30th you will have until 11:59pm on September 14th to complete 1,250,000 quests as a team.
During this time, you will need to complete quests from the following quest givers to have them count: Blue Building, Carl, Cinthia, Mori or Nori, Alexander, Maleria, Pete, Quentin, Saggitarius, Sarah, and The Wizard. Just a reminder that regular users can complete 10 quests per quest giver and Gold Account users can complete 15 quests*.
*Blue Building quests are 5 quests a day for everyone.
Once the Quest-A-Thon starts, you’ll be able to see everyone’s progress with a status bar on the news page. If the goal is completed, everyone that has participated will receive 1 new pet slot, 1 account-bound exclusive wearable (Fashion Hoodie), and 1 exclusive challenger!

account bound avatar items are so problematic. everyone else seems to have made the point as to why i just would like to be noted as another user who is against this item being account bound. I doubt I will ever make an avatar that will use this jacket and to think I'm just going to have to delete it? wasteful!

Just in case numbers count, I'm chiming in with everyone who absolutely hates the idea of an account-bound item. This was one of the things I hated most about Poupee Girl when that was a thing, because I joined them 2 years after they opened and one of my favourite site items was an item that I could never own, and people who did have the item and didn't want it any more had to delete it to get rid of it when there were tons of people who would have done crazy things to get one.
In this case, I dislike it even more, because...well, look at my avatar. (It doesn't matter if I change my avatar after I write this. I've never made a single avatar in the history of ever who represented someone who would wear that jacket.)
I have absolutely no use for this item, and it kills me to delete it thinking of someone joining the site in 2019 who might desperately want it missing out when many people who have it won't ever use it.
If you are going to go down the road of making account-bound items, it would be better if they were a style that could be usable by anyone no matter what kind of avatars they prefer making.
A really nice layering piece that could be incorporated into all sorts of outfits, while it would definitely incite more envy, would be preferable to this loud, gaudy, very era-specific jacket, which is only usable by people who like to dress their avatars in 21st century urban styles and also like the design. Since my avatars all look like they can't decide if they're in the Magic Kingdom or Tomorrowland, that will not be me.

Yessss! I was hoping there would be a quest-a-thon so excited! I love when you make items. I hope you do some tier items too, that way it will make people want to do more.

@Allegria
Yeah, I don't want to end up with a bunch of items I have no use for. I've always liked giving away stuff like that, so I'm really not concerned with profits or anything like that. And missing an item that you can not get otherwise is a great big turnoff for me, but my main concern was that I'm horribly indecisive. So, if I really like an item I always end up needing at least two copies if it's a wearable so that I can put in it my tc hoard as well.
@Amber
Thank you for letting us know! Account-bound things aren't my favorite type of items, but I can appreciate that you guys are trying something new! (Really loooove that hoodie omg I can't wait xD )

I've been really procrastinating about getting those QP I need for the seasonal items (and quite a few regular items as well)

YESSSSSSSS. I've been hoping for a quest-a-thon for so long now, and I have been saving a 1 week gold account for it. Wooooooo. I really, really hope we hit the goal so I can finally get another pet slot for another Blob. <3

@seephira
We also have more time (two whole weekends for people who are normally too busy during the week), so we should be fine. We did the first time without needing the extension with only a week and in the middle of an event. I can't assume Staff won't be sneaky and add another event, but we have a lot more time.
There's no need to be negative before the even event starts.

I do hope we get days were we get all quests as weekend quests spread throughout the event, that would be awesome!

Oh, just noticed we'll have over 2 week. We used to have only 1 week to make 750k and 1m, right? So I think this will be pretty achievable.

Also what does account-bound mean for this item? Will it be auto-locked in the wardrobe or can people put it in pet treasures or even delete it if they want?

That surprises me. I've not been very active lately but I've heard about lag and errors for at least the past week or two. Those been fixed hopefully? Well, I'll come back and put all my effort in this anyway.

We have 16 days to make the goal, that's a little under 80k quests per day. We only need somewhere between 550 and 850 users to do all of their quests every day (depending on if they have GAs or not) to be able to reach the goal.
There's usually somewhere around that amount of people online every day anyway, so I don't think it will be too hard.

i don't see the point of making the hoodie account bound. i hope this will be changed.
i also think the individual rewards should be based on effort. no matter what anyone says... a person doing a single quest and someone doing all of them getting the same reward (or none if we fail) is like, objectively unfair. i mean, come on.

I've never understood why people get so pressed about people only doing a couple of quests during these tbh. I know it seems annoying, but as long as we make it it doesn't really matter imo
if w're not gonna make it unless more people do it then get mad, by all means, but I don't really care if someone gets the same prizes with 1 quests that others do from hundreds, meh.

I think 1,250,000 is way to much. we barely make it in the previous years. didn't it have to be extended last time because we didn't reach our goal?

@HeadPhonz @Aeon No, account bounds won’t be the new norm. We wanted to do something different with this quest-a-thon!
@Aztec You guys have met the goal every single time we’ve done a quest-a-thon. If you guys didn’t make it a time or two, I’d consider making you need to do more participation. But looking at the data on the backend, most people do more than just the 1 required. :)

Not a fan of the wearable so I'm not happy about the idea of it being account bound... As long as it doesn't become a regular thing, I can deal. (I just don't want to be stuck with a bunch of items I'll never use.)
Anyway, I'll definitely be participating because PET SLOT! I'm also excited about the release of a new challenger...
But not as excited because as far as I am concerned nothing can compete with PET SLOT!

Controversial opinion but: Users should have to complete the equivalent of the full amount of one NPC's quests to qualify for the prize, instead of just doing 1 quest and then sitting on their butt the rest of the time. That means 10 quests in total. For as long as the quest-a-thons go on and for as quick as the quests take to complete, it's not an outrageous requirement by any standard.

@HeadPhonz I can understand it for an event like this where someone can only do one quest and they still get the prizes so it keeps them from profiting off other peoples' work. On the other hand, I can see how it sucks for the people who put the work in but then can't sell it if it's something they wouldn't wear.

are account-bound items going to be more of a thing because i don't know how to feel about that :c

Do we have to participate in quests from every quest giver or just quests from any of them? I don't have access to the Blue Building and I don't think I can do quests for Sarah anymore either...

@capper09 To be honest, I have no clue what I'm doing when I fight. I just click random weapons I have on my pet (that battlers like @Wesker told me to get). I just do it for the pretty loot usually! If you ever need help, the Battle Chat on the forums is active and everyone is very nice and helpful there. <3

@capper09 So as one of the prizes, we're going to have a "secret" challenger that will only be unlocked by participating in a quest-a-thon (I don't know if we'll reuse this challenger in the future). You'll be able to battle it any time after you've unlocked it (assuming you guys make the goal ;)), so even if your pet isn't quite up to the tier it needs to be, you'll have time <3

time for that buyer's remorse of buying something else instead of that GA. also time for that constant "we'll never make it omg" sentiment but we always do make it, team effort. time for that "omg i have to be up early have to work won't be on can't be on" sentiment, but you know you get on and do it anyway because, team effort. 24hrs to get your responsibilities and affairs in order, team, and we get to it because we've got this once again <3
