Quest-a-thon: LETS GO
The Quest-A-Thon has officially started! You’ll have until 11:59pm on July 12 to complete 1,000,000 quests as a community. BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE (keep reading to the end of the news post)!
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. We will not be penalizing users for using forum groups to store their sP.
Okay but the current prizes don’t interest me.
The point of the quest-a-thon is to encourage everyone to do their quests and come together as a community to beat a common goal. Yes, we have some set prizes, but you also get those sweet sweet quest points + sP from the quest givers. Starting on July 7, quests will be giving out some old holiday items as a nice treat. We’ll have more information about who will be giving out what on that Wednesday! :)What happens if we make 1,000,000 quests before the deadline?
There is a second goal! We did this for the last quest-a-thon because y’all were amazing and it worked out well! If y’all make it past 1,000,000 quests, there will be a news post bringing attention to the second goal and reminding everyone what ALL the prizes would be.
- If 1,000,000 quests get completed:
Participants of at least 1 quest will receive 1 pet slot, 1 Style Hoodie. Anyone that does at least 100 quests will receive a new Green Sun Sparkle HA Border. We will once again be awarding the Gold Sun Sparkle border to the top 100 participants. 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) - If 2,000,000 quests get completed:
All goal one prizes (assuming you meet requirements) + 5 referral points + 10 loyalty points + a forum title yet to be determined. Give your suggestions for it in the news comments and we’ll do a poll later!
If y’all don’t make the 2,000,000 quests completed goal, that’s okay! You’ll still get the 1,000,000 quest goal prizes, assuming y’all have beat that. ;)

Forum Title suggest...
USERNAME is a Quest-a-holic
Cause there are some who quest religiously, even without a quest-a-thon. :o

there were a few where we needed some help to make it to the end (every quest counting as two, or every quest being a weekend quest, an extension), so i think 1.5m is the sweet spot for this kind of event ^^;
(also people get really mean if it looks like we'll lose, and that takes all the fun out of it, so it's good that staff have settled on a doable range lol)

@BoaConstrictor
Last year the initial goal was also 1 million, with the additional goal of 2 million which we also completed.
I don't think there was one in 2019, but I found in 2018 it was 1.25 million for the goal and in 2017 it was 1 million. So they tend to be in a similar range. But I guess it also depends on how many people are online at the time. I remember there was one year where we came close to not reaching it I think, but I can't remember exactly when it was or what the goal for that year was.

Subeta's always been heavy into comedy/puns/pop culture references in the time I've been here, so I'm prolly showing my age with these title ideas lol
- "There goes the next Conquestant, _____!" (...prolly gonna get /bricked for this one LOL)
- "_____, Subetan Questafarian"
- "Yours Questingly, _____"
- "_____, Mission Questpossible!"
- "Onwards Questventurer, _____!"
- "_____, is a Questpedition Leader"
- "_____, is a Questor Extraordinairre"
- "Nobody expects the Subetan Inquestition, _____!" (Nope, not sorry for this one either ;D)

2nd day and I got 'em all done. Yesterday I even got a bonus quest from the Wizard, so I think that bodes well for the rest of the event! I'm REALLY happy to see how quickly we're racking up quests!!

WindKitsune
Normal quests (excluding Sarah and BB) have 10 each, so that rounds up to 90
Blue Building has 5
Sarah has 10
If you complete all the daily quests at least once, you'll end up with 105 total quests done.

Once we hit 1m, it would be nice if all quests became "weekend quests". It might help give even more incentive to those completing quests :D

I have to agree with maybe "There's no I in team" because I, too, have an I in my username. Or hmm how about something like... "USERNAME Put the Quest in Questing".

I prefer: There's no "I" in team for a forum title suggestion.
I have an I in my username, so it wouldn't make sense that I would say "There's no "I" in hannahharmin".

I've been racking up sP, twiddling my thumbs for a good excuse to make a run through collections I haven't added to in a while. xD This was a great excuse to do just that so I could do Sarah's quests.

Another suggestion for the title. Since it's a feat of teamwork, what about "There's no "I" in USERNAME". Could make for some fun username and title combos

@DimDim Any quests you do automatically count towards the total. You don't have to do anything to make them count
You can create a forum group here which has a group bank in it and use that to store sP so that you can do Sarah's quests since she requires you to have under 1,500,000 sP at one time. You could also spend your extra sP instead if you didn't want to use the group bank

@elka If one person gets the bonus quest buff, that person takes over the top spot in the top 100. Everyone who ties with all their quests done but no buff would then take the second spot, with 98 more places behind them (so third might be everyone who missed one single quest, fourth for people who missed two quests, etc.)
2
elka
@Amber i just had a thought! what about buffs, has this been addressed? (i saw @Net asked but didn't find an answer sorry!)
so let's say 2 people do all the quests every single day, none of them miss any so they are equal... but one is luckier and gets the buff...... that would break the tie and potentially make you miss the gold border? (which i don't have yet)

This is lovely, it's heartwarming how people are coming together to help each other to get GA's. It's, imo, the best part of this event. Let's do it!

do you have to register somewhere to deliver the completed quests? how does subeta know how many quests i have managed in the end? you can post sp in the forum ?? i don't understand, this is really confusing

@Sandra
if you insist on using a joint group to store sP for sarah's quests, you're going to have to make a list to account for how much of the sP belongs to each user, and your group admins are going to be stuck dealing with the bank every time someone needs their money (as far as i am aware, there is no way to adjust who has access to the group bank; anyone can add to it but only admins can remove from it).
avoid all of this, and have your members make their own forum groups to bank with.

@Sandra
Everyone can make an individual/personal forum group for yourself and put your sP in that forum group's bank. It's best to do it in a personal/private group where you are the only member so that other people can't have access to your sP. If you put it in the bank of a forum group where other people are members or admins and someone takes out your sP and spends it, the UAs may not be able to help with recovering it since you use these workarounds at your own risk.

All quests done today, including Saggi+Sarah! Thank goodness Drills quests are special quests. Nothing more wonderful than trying to win 3.5k sP at the slots or leviathan spamming, yuck.

First time I have ever gone through every single quest and not once batted an eyelash.
Okay, so it was more of a "I started it at midnight, fell asleep, then started again when I woke up," but still.
Is there a counter somewhere so we know how far we've gotten?

@Zombie_Slayer
There is not a way to see how many you do yourself. That's something you'd have to track on your own (to the best of my knowledge anyways)
As for using Forum groups to store money, you can create your own Private forum group that no one else can join and put almost all of your SP in there while you do Sarah's quests then withdraw it as needed.

are you referring to storing sP in a forum group used by multiple people? don't bother with that, make your own personal group and put your money in that instead.
@Baikou
letting people just shuffle the money around means they don't have to adjust sarah's coding before/after the event :p
@Sunbear
there's no individual counter. you'll have to keep track of that yourself :x

Honestly this will be the very first time I'm joining in a questathon, and I've been a member on subeta for about 13 years. Very excited, but also curious, even though Sarah is a starter for those with less sP wouldn't it be easier just to allow users to be able to get quests from her and let it slide during a questathon?
0
Sandra
@Amber Is there going to be something put out, since they've said they would allow it, as to the logistics of how we could or couldn't move sP about? Does there have to be an account not participating in quests to hold the sP or can it be moved around from one person to another in order for multiple group members to do the quests? Or how do we do that without breaking the rules?

@mallory Quests start counting right at midnight, so no worries!
@osterizer it’s only day one my pal! ;)
@bunny Because even if we lift the cap, people will still work around it to do all the quests. It’s a lot of extra work on the UAs to deal with people figuring out ways to do all the quests and I don’t want to take quests out (Saggi, Sarah) just because of the sP limitations. That’s why, for quest-a-thons, I don’t want anyone penalized.

"We will not be penalizing users for using forum groups to store their sP." shocked pikachu i was today years old when i learned this was a thing. so you're saying people put their sp into the forum group? does that let them do additional quests with sarah? that doesn't seem right but if y'all are encouraging it why not just lift the cap on sarah with the understanding that if you do the newbie quests you're just doing it for the low rewards? no, tea no shade, i really just did not know this was a thing.
