Safety Assured
Good morning, are you ready to move on? As I said, Blake and I have (yawn) worked through the night and I can feel good about letting you enter that room. The next puzzle is ready for you to complete - we figure that we should leave that task to you, as you’ve been trusted with they keys and the puzzles so far.
Rejoin the expedition

Thanks based Saggi.
thank you so much for announcing the boss times beforehand and stating how this all works (scoring and relevant tiers) before the minievent starts! wooo!
also i just wanna say all the writing for this is... so fantastic. i love it and i thank you for the emotions you have given me
This is much more fun than all the competition between Team Blake and Team Gold.
I like the puzzles.
I like the puzzles.
can we get back to the game after we've solved it? i didnt know there was another achievement??
I should be available at 6pm but my attention is gonna be really short... on top of my already short attention span. Let's see how it goes. I'll probably be dying. Ugh WOOOO, YEAH, Mondays. :D
It would have been Saturday.
And come on people, just because you are free on the weekends doesn't mean everyone is. If we all had the same shifts, shit wouldn't get done. the world doesnt stop to party on the same days, many people's weekend is literally in the middle of the week.

Well darn, have to be at work or asleep for two of these battles. At least I'll be able to get in on the first round. Also.... 2048 was insane to try to figure out, but a lot of fun once I did. Would be nice if it stays!
People are whining because this wasn't on a weekend as if there aren't people who work on the weekends too?
I work tomorrow until 8p, so at least I'll get in some hits on the first boss hopefully. I'll be sleeping and heading to work again for the next two waves.
I mean, why not just move it to all day Wednesday instead. I'm off work on Wednesday.

I was going to say maybe the boss was planned for next weekend and Elwood's deus ex machina moved it up, but I think he only saved us three days. That would mean it was originally scheduled for a Thursday. :x
I don't like puzzles.. will be glad to get away from them and no.. I don't have a high battler either. :(
Aw year first time I don't miss a boss event~
Also this puzzle was really fun more than the other two less stressful. I hope you guys bring this one back :)

Who thought that a monday was a good time to start a boss battle? Most of us are either in school or work or both, and mondays are notorious for being awful and busy and horrid and no one likes them.
Why was this not planned for a weekend?
I'm even on subeta time, which is EST, and these times are ridiculous.
6 pm - Oh look, I've been to classes and work and now I'm running to another class.
2 am - Uh ew, I'm sleeping.
10 am - Gee, I'm getting ready because I have classes and then work until 9 pm.
So even if I can stop in for a couple minutes for more than one battle, only my pet's cumulative damage to one boss counts, so trying to get in hits on the two times that I'm not sleeping isn't even really helpful.
Compared to how it would have been for a weekend:
6 pm - no problem.
2 am - no problem.
10 am - no problem.
I'm NOT the only one pointing this out. You'd think that considering this is usually a big source of complaint (major timed plot battles set during busy days of the week as opposed to the weekend), this would have been revised this time around, but clearly not.
Seriously wtf. It's cool and all that you thought to tell us when the boss would spawn in this time around, but that's pretty useless when the majority of users are busy...because you know...it's a monday.

Okay, shoot I have a doctors appt that will go into the first boss battle, which is the best timing for me. I think I can do the third one...
lord have mercy this puzzle is giving me soooo much anxiety
like pretty much every puzzle on this plot has
i hate puzzles.....

So 6pm tomorrow (subeta time) means that 2am and 10am are the day AFTER tomorrow actually? So part of this will be on tuesday actually? If I got this right that's a total relief, since otherwise it would conflict with our fate rpg group and a good friend of mine visiting and that would just suck for me. I don't want to chose between two of my favourite hobbies and I wanna kick boss challenger's butt!
Aside from my personal time management: I love that we get clarification! Do this always, it's wonderful. Yes, it ruins part of the surprise, but it has proven that surprises are not a good idea when it comes to scedules and plot points. I think it would be better to have such a battle on a weekend, since at least most people will have time then, but I see how that would leave us with quite some time in between.
And the game is great, please keep it. <3

I really appreciate that you guys gave us a heads up about the boss battle, but it REALLY sucks that you are starting it on Monday...when you know the weekend would be best for most because school, work, sleep....But whatevs. Still thanks for the heads up.
I'm wondering if it's just a boss battle or are there other challengers as well and if so how long will they be around.... cause if it's just one day that's not very much time...
Gettin some real uncomfortable vibes from all this- lots of talk of sacrifice but also dying for someone you love. I see two outcomes and both are sad :C
looking forward to the 2am / 10 am ones 8D feeling lucky to be off but dang mon-tues cycle is brutal
also not looking forward to the site crashing during the 6pm one lol good thing it'll be sleep time here in Europe

Man, just realized Matlal blabbed about his and his brother's dark secret to like literally all of the userbase. That's so many people dude, it's not even a secret anymore.
@Speiro - Thanks! So it sounds like it might be a good idea to use my T12 for when I have the most time to dedicate and my T7 for when I get some free time during the other time slots :)
omg thank you for breaking down the boss battle /sobs grossly
I'll have to do all I can against the first one, as the others are awful times for me.

@autumn - All pets will earn loot based on their damage. There are special prizes for pets that score highest within their tier, and these are the ones with the "no double dipping" rule. If you have a tier 4 and a tier 7, and they both rank for top damage in their respective tiers, you will only receive the top prize for your T7 since both pets fall in the same tier range (1-8).
Your T7 and T12 are in different ranges (1-8 and 9-13), so you could conceivably earn top tier prizes for both.

Wow I understood absolutely fucking nothing of that boss battle explanation
Good job me, you're getting dumber by the day

WILL THIS GAME/PUZZLE BE STICKING AROUND?? BECAUSE I LOVE IT!!/there's an extra achievement for it :o
Also, I love 2048 but I think it was probably a bad idea to put this puzzle up with almost no explanation and assume that everyone has played it. I've been trying to explain how to do it to parts of my team, and they're getting really confused.
Can I get clarification on the Boss? If I use my T7 and my T12, it sounds like only one pet's total damage (highest) will count towards my plot score, but I will get different prizes for each pet based on the tier they are in? Or do I only get a prize in a tier if I am among the top damage in that tier? Sorry, I am a bit confused and I am trying to decide how to spend the kinda limited time I have (boo work) to battle. Thanks! :)
Glad to hear it's coming back, but bummed I didn't realize there was a 2048 ach before I completed it! Got 1024 on my first try and figured that was good enough.
i also wish we could keep playing 2048 and start trying for the achievement even after getting the silver key. if i had realized i couldn't get back to it for now, i would have kept playing after getting to 512 instead of clicking the "check puzzle" button as soon as i could :c
