Quest-A-Thon: START!!!
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.
**Participation means complete at least 1 quest throughout the Quest-A-Thon.
GOOD LUCK!

The lag... :( Looks like I'll be doing 5 quests per day because that is all my eye twitch can handle.

Perhaps the quest-a-thon should have been saved for when all of the server updates were complete? There's not even 1000 people online, and the lag is atrocious. I may end up being one of the "1 quest and done" folks, through no fault of my own.

Next one of these things yall do make it less than 14 days. I can care less for the prizes as I do my quests every day. But This lag is just a massive drag.

I do most of my questing early in the morning when there are not a lot of people on but I still get this awful lag and in the afternoon or evening it is so bad, takes 5 mins or more to even load a page. I have no idea how you guys expect people to get these quests done when the lag is so bad. If we fail it'll be because of all the lag on site.

aaaarrrggggh curses Verizon D: (they're my only internet option and the internet has been down for a week....they're discounting my bill but they don't expect to get it fixed until Sunday ;u; that makes questing quite hard since it's so difficult on the mobile site)

I'm sorry but the lag and errors are making it impossible to quest. I've been trying to finish ONE quests for 15 mins now. Can something be done about this please? :(

hmmm 1 quest for getting all that free stuff huh ??? WOW thats generous of you guys !!! thats for sure (nah that was a joke ;) i do my best to do as many as i can during my online time off course :):) but next week i am on vacation and in the woods i have always terrible connection not sure if that will work then but i do have 5 days to participate so thats better then nothing :)
can we see how many quests we did ?? like you have youre bar on the news page maybe we can get a progress bar too on our quest page so that we can see how many we did during the quest a thon ??? that would be awesome too
or maybe we can get some acheivements like you did 100 - 500 - 1000 -and so on quests during quest a thon 2018 or so ?????
just some ideas :)

Did anyone happen to notice if we made it to 100k by midnight, subeta time? I saw we were really close when I went to bed at 11 and was just curious. ^^

Thank you @Solsticesprite and @Bliss
I always do them really fast, like open the shop search in a new task with shortcuts and so on but never had this issue so often. ^^

I'm going to try and do my best to come out of my hiatus for this.
I already did my shinwa quest, that's more quests then I did in the past 6 months.

i've been waiting for this since last year. i'm late to the news post 'cos i jumped right into questing and have been singing, "Questing time, forget about the outside and spend hours on Subeta instead" to the tune of Closing Time.

Seems like we passed 100k in the first day, and it wasnt even weekend, when people tend to quest more. I van already... taste(???)... that new pet slot

Still having computer problems and can barely get my minimum quests done. Plus will be out of town for a few days. Sorry. Hope the rest of you can get this done. I'll do what I can. Good luck to all! We could all use another pet slot. ;)

@Emrah If you are getting this a lot, you are doing them too fast and you have a speedy connection to the internet. Wait for each purchase to complete before making the next one, and then go back to the quest grantor once the spinning refresh arrow just to the left of your URL box stops moving on any/all purchase tabs/windows. Sometimes this is enough. However sometimes when a lot of people are questing at the same time as you or if there are server probs (and we know they're switching over, so right now it's both), you also need to wait about 2 seconds in between ending one quest and starting another.

Every time I try to finish a quest, I get a warning message that I'm actually not on a quest. It happened like four times out of the ten.

can we have an option to see how many quests we as individual person have done towards it?

My quests are all done for today!
That said, just like past quest-a-thons, I still wish that if we must go with account-bound prizes, they'd be something similar to a loyalty box that has multiple account-bound reward choices for the user to select from. Personally I won't get anything out of the pet slot or the wearable, so my only real hope for any event prize lies in the challenger (which hopefully won't be above my main battle pet's capabilities to defeat, but it could be). I know that I am not the only person who feels this way, even if we are not the majority.
I'll still be participating and doing the quests either way because they're good cash. But for me the actual prizes sound underwhelming again so it makes it feel like there isn't even an event happening - I'm just going about my business doing quests as usual, whereas other events are very distinct to the gameplay experience. On the bright side, I no longer feel bad about not being able to do my quests this weekend (I'm away for the weekend celebrating my 2 year wedding anniversary).

Quest-a-Thons are not about compatition, that's the complete opposite of what they are about.

I understand the participation and love that everyone has a chance at getting a prize. However I'd love to also have prize tiers based on number of quests done in these things to satisfy those of us who love competition and working toward goals as well.

I always enjoy doing Subeta’s special events! With a Pet Slot as one of the rewards, I am “beside myself” with excitement! I won’t be able to do all 15 for every quest giver every day but I will do as many as time permits. Every bit counts, right!? Have fun everyone!

1250000 quests across 16 days means 78125 quests a day which immediately looks a lot more doable, seeing as we're 7 hours in and already have 32k Quests done. Also keep in mind that there's probably a higher rate of Quests per day done on weekends!
Quest number ballparks:
August 30th: 78,125
August 31st: 156,250 (Weekend!)
September 1st: 234,375 (Weekend!)
September 2nd: 312,500 (Weekend!)
September 3rd: 390,625
September 4th: 468,750
September 5th: 546,875
September 6th: 625,000 (halfpoint!)
September 7th: 703,125 (Weekend!)
September 8th: 781,250 (Weekend!)
September 9th: 859,375 (Weekend!)
September 10th: 937,500
September 11th: 1,015,625 (1 Million down)
September 12th: 1,093,750
September 13th: 1,171,875
September 14th: 1,250,000 (Goal!) (Also Weekend)
We'd need 823 normal account people doing all their 95 Quests each day, or 559 gold account people doing all their 140 quests each day to get those numbers. I suspect we have more active people than that, so we ought to be able to make it.

Hey, every snowflake adds to a storm~ ;)I know we've always done really well on things like this, it's just that I've seen people bragging about only doing one and letting everyone else do the rest (mostly off-site, where people won't give them a hard time) and it's kind of discouraging to see that when it's supposed to be a group effort.
Anyone who takes the time to type a brag about doing nothing? Just lazy and basic attempts at trolling. If the requirement was 10, they'd just use that number instead in the hopes of getting a rise out of people, because they have absolutely nothing else going for them.
The people that really do only one quest aren't wasting their time going on and on about it, they're actually doing something else, waiting for the rewards to roll in and/or they barely play to begin with. :P
Keep being your awesome self and try to not give their generic jokes any more of your time.
We've got quests to do and goals to hit~ And, we'll do it together. ♥️

@mouse True, but it's also a very small minority! We have a lot of users who don't post at all and still do a lot of quests. It's better to ignore those that brag about the one quest and instead enjoy the community of questers (on the thread I linked, in your own forum group, discord, whatever!).
get me that pet slot, guys.

Yeah, I just wanted to clarify that I meant a really low requirement, not something that would turn people off but just enough (probably more than 10, it was just an example to show I didn't mean a really high requirement because that would discourage people) to encourage people to contribute a bit more.

Guess it doesn't matter, I'm going to enjoy Quest-A-Thon anyway. Just don't really like a 1 quest requirement and I feel it should be just a bit higher.

@mouse ngl I just picked 500 as an example because my usual joke 'billion' example for things wouldn't have worked as well there.
Why make it 10 when it's not that much higher than 1? I'd understand people wanting to raise the participation number if you guys hadn't made every single goal tbh, even with small time crunches. EVEN WITH GELLY WAR SITE EXPLODING SITUATIONS.

As I said, the requirement didn't have to be high, so nothing like 500... not sure why that kind of limit was even brought up because I specifically mentioned a low requirement. I was only thinking of a very low limit, just so people wouldn't do 1 quest and leave it at that. I'm glad most people contribute more, and I never assumed that many only did 1 quest, I just think the 1 quest requirement is too low. Even 10 quests would be a bit better, imo.

@mouse Nope. :) This event is all/nothing as a team. A vast majority of those that participate do more than the one quest! We're not going to put limits on how many people should do, because not everyone can complete all their quests every single day for whatever reason (work, school, expensive quest, etc). We have no plans for changing the format of a quest-a-thon, because it's unique for our events in the sense that everyone works together and either gets the prizes or fails and tries again next time. You've all made every single quest-a-thon goal. I personally feel like adding a "you have to do 500 quests to qualify" would just turn some people off that don't think they can fit all that in / get discouraged / etc. Every bit helps, and like I said most people do more than 1. :)

Julia
Please, please, PLEASE for the next Quest-A-Thon can we have "participation" be more than ONE quest? It doesn't have to be a huge amount, just more than one quest on one day of the Quest-A-Thon.
Otherwise... yay, Quest-A-Thon! These are fun and it's fun to actually participate. Much more rewarding than letting everyone else do the work. :)
