Quest-A-Thon: COMING SOON to a quest near you

Denim Wizard Beanbag
Pirate Cinthia Plushie
Autumn Sarah Plushie
Are you ready for a Quest-A-Thon? Y’all have asked for it over the past two years and it’s finally here. Well, almost.

Starting at 12:00am on Monday August 24 you will have until 11:59pm on Friday September 4 to complete 1,000,000 quests as a team!

Like always, the completing quests from the following quest givers will count towards the goal: Blue Building, Carl, Cinthia, Mori and Nori, Alexander, Maleria, Pete, Quentin, Saggitarius, Sarah, and The Wizard.

Don’t forget that regular users can complete 10 quests per quest giver and gold account users can complete 15 quests per quest giver a day. The only quest this does not apply to is Blue Building quests, which are 5 a day for everyone.

String of Prize Tickets
Now let’s discuss prizes! If the goal is met, participants will get the following prizes:

  • 1 Pet Slot

  • *Sparkles* forum title

  • A special new Avatar Border! What are avatar borders? They are a new feature that adds something special to your avatar headshot. Future borders will be given out in all sorts of ways, so keep an eye out! As far as the quest-a-thon goes, any participant will get the Blue Sun Sparkle border. If you place in the top 100 participants, you’ll get the Gold Sun Sparkle border as well! (We expect a lot of ties, so more than 100 people might end up getting the gold Sparkle border)

    I know, I'm being a pain in the a, but, please, aside from broken shop restocks also don't let the new lag continue throughout the questathon!!!!

    As others say, don't care much for the prizes but I'll happily help out whatever group I'm on.

    Woo! Always excited for more pet slots! Its been awhile since my last quest a thon. I'll do my best to help hit the goal. =)

    I really like this new avatar border concept :open_mouth:. As someone who posts far more in news comments than in the forums my titles don't get much use. Looking forward to the Quest-a-thon.

    Oh yay. Library quests are going to be more expensive to do. I'll just do what I can, not going to push myself as I don't care for the prizes.

    that was a good woopieee btw ;-;

    aa yes this is really exciting!! ' v '

    but at the same time, if using workarounds for sarah (transferring sp to a friend, using a forum group bank...) aren't going to penalised i don't get why we can't just lift sarah's sp requirement for the event duration? especially seeing as there's an actual prize for placing in the top 100 (which let's be real is gonna be everyone who can do every single quest every day)

    like idk it just feels kinda needlessly restrictive i think ;;

    Yaaaaaay! Awesome! :D

    @EmilyMae It might be, but I thought it was just giving the effect of making the forum title seem exciting.

    ohh if anyone who does pay for a subscription needs a GA for the quest a thon, msg me! I have 2 buddy GA accounts I can hand out. :)

    YAY for Quest a thon!

    @pointycatears

    i don't understand why we can't choose between the pet slot and CSC, for those who are more invested in the wardrobe. in order to hit the goal, as many people as possible need to participate, and driving away half the userbase with a prize they have no interest in seems counter productive...
    Why not a custom wearable voucher instead of CSC as an alternative prize?

    ;)

    i personally am very happy with the pet slot for a prize, but i know there are lots of people who are not. i don't understand why we can't choose between the pet slot and CSC, for those who are more invested in the wardrobe. in order to hit the goal, as many people as possible need to participate, and driving away half the userbase with a prize they have no interest in seems counter productive...

    @Sopheroo I'm not here to make friends, thx.
    Trees
    Oh, is that why there haven't been any news posts aside from the pet spotlight and weekend quests in the last 3 days? I did wonder if it was because of a Jewish holiday or something.

    HELLLLLLLL YESSSS QUEST A THON
    Jinjah
    Sorry, when you have time, can you please explain how to do a Sarah quest when you have too much sP?
    Riashire
    I've missed Quest-a-thons! I'm so hyped!!
    EmilyMae
    Any chance we can get some quest shop points as a prize?!?
    bluetaz01
    Now I just got really excited
    Trees
    So we won't know what the forum title is this time until we get it?

    Also, it would be good to see more borders as achievement prizes since we have so many forum title achievements already.
    Beautiful
    well, i guess this explains the shop emptying that's been going on for the last several days. :( both my kid and i were wondering what someone else knew that we didn't.

    woooooppieeeee

    YAY!!! A Quest-A-Thon I was waiting for this a long time!! I love doing these for a free pet slot, however I'm not to excited about avatar border. ANYWAY YAY QUEST-A-THON!!
    Solsticesprite
    I was wondering where the borders could possibly appear, and then I came here to comment on it....derpy derp. They'd be visible here, in News Comments.

    How about making them work for the Discord, I see some pretty images there do they allow customizations from other places?

    Yeah I will not be doing the Sarah's Quests, I'm sitting on a ton of sP.. Somebody else will get my lovely gold border.

    Cool, thanks.

    Oh hecc-
    Well I guess now's a good time as any to start being active on Subeta again ^^
    BoaConstrictor
    @jensen Thank you!
    taekeyla
    omg i literally just forked out the 20mil for a new pet slot and now theres a chance i can get one for free lol. dang.

    anyway, this sounds fun. ive never been apart of a questathon before. although ive been a member for 4 years, i was inactive for most of it so im excited!
    BoaConstrictor
    I'm confused.
    I love doing Maleria. She is on my daily must list together with Cynthia, because she gives good cash and not items I don't know where to put with not enough space in our wonderful new shops.

    Fabulous!

    We’ve discussed it as staff and we’re not penalizing people for working a way to do Sarah’s quests. That was something that wasn’t communicated greatly in the pass to the staff (which was my bad), so it was confusing for users.
    So... has the rule changed, and we're allowed to use forum groups to store sP to get to Sarah again? This is still unclear.
    lull
    @Amber - thank you ^_^ I look forward to more questathons and more fab prizes... extra shop/gallery maybe? ;)
    jensen
    yay, i've been waiting for this news ;v;

    @BoaConstrictor
    the last one was 1,250,000 quests over 16 days, this one's lasting just 12 days i think? so hopefully it goes smoother than the last one did :)
    Shelbi
    The avatar borders are neat!! Im excited! n-n
    BoaConstrictor
    Thank you, Amber, for the info!!!

    Yaaasss! I shall queue up the Youtube videos and listen to Reddit stories being read while I do quests!

    FOR ANYONE WHO NEEDS TO UNKOCK CARL:

    You'll need to acquire all of the Uncharted Land Map pieces and then Turn Them In.

    Here's the Blue Building Requirements .

    And if you own a forum group, you can work around the sP restriction for Sarah by dumping all of your excess sP in there since we're being encouraged to find a workaround to being blocked from her. That will be safer than offering on trades and such.
    BoaConstrictor
    btw, if everybody starts questing and using items like mad, it would help, if the wonky shop restocks were finally addressed!
    Amber STAFF
    @BoaConstrictor The last one was in 2018 and the goal was 1,250,000 which y'all, unfortunately, struggled with so we went a lil lower this time!

    @Amber
    I literally didn't say "remove these quests from the running" I suggested removing the requirements to have access to them so that everyone is on more equal ground. I know this game really favors giving people who already have a leg up an even bigger leg up so I really don't know why I bother.

    If you don't have a GA, Uncharted Map access, Blue Building, enough sP, but also too little sP, you're not going to place at all. You'll need all of these things to place. Some of which people don't have time to access before the Quest-a-Thon starts. (EX: missing 100 posts for blue building? want to risk spamming the forums and getting a warning since they move at a snails pace...?)

    And listen, I could care less about myself. I'm going to place. I have all these things... but like, how disheartening to everyone else who wasn't prepared with a chunk of csc or USD in their wallet for that GA + everything else they need access to.

    In before "not all prizes should be for everyone", which I totally get, but forcing x% of your people to have a massive handicap out the gate with a "You literally cannot earn this" I personally think is crap. shrug

    Ahhhhhh XD

    @lull Not this time! Pet slot is sort of the traditional prize for each quest-a-thon. Keith has bullied me into doing quest-a-thons more often though, so I want to feature different areas of the site with some of the future ones. This time, it's obv pet people + forum people (the title) + anyone who likes their HA (avatar borders)
