Quest-A-Thon: Weekend Quests
For the remainder of the Quest-A-Thon, all quests will act like weekend quests! If you're lucky, you might even get a few retired holiday items.
Note: If the Quest-A-Thon goal isn't met at the end, we will reuse the prizes for a future Quest-A-Thon with an adjustment to the goal or days.

Ugh, why did it send? lol
I was going to say, same here. Haha.
Also, positively surprised by that progress in the last few hours. :D

I've been doing all quests, daily. I'm actually surprised because we've made a lot of progress.

Positive thinking please.
In a previous Quest-A-Thon all of you surprised me already with an incredible comeback while I was asleep.
Guys, we can do it. We are awesome. Go Team! <3
(And as I said in the Forums already, even if we don't make it, I'm still proud of everyone who is helping right now. With all the rl stuff and the Gelatin war going on [Good luck to the Battlers with Core hunting etc!] we're doing so great already. :D)

I absolutely LOVE quest-a-thons!! I am all about that free pet slot. There is nothing better than stalking the pound watching and waiting for that pet with the perfect name. Plus, you make crazy SP and I have loved the extra items.

This is awesome, at least I can get good prizes while I attempt to help my girls get another pet slot. I hope though that if we don't make it the Subeta Team reconsiders giving the big prize to anyone that completes at least ONE quest during the event. Do more, get more. That way everyone wins.

Once I'm back on 1.5mil (will need 100k to reach it) I'll do the rest of Saggi as well. Spent my sP for another Nightmare Potion so I can do Sarah's Quests again.

Hmmm this lag isn't pretty. Took me a half hour to do all my wizard quests... I'm glad those were the last ones I needed to finish :/
Usually takes me about 45 minutes or less to finish everyone's quest.
So we need to do about 144k per day, idk hopefully the weekend quests will help. *crosses fingers*

Thank you for the weekend quests! I can now justify buying pricey books to read to my pets (ungrateful brats saying the fell asleep or would rather eat them) - must get their iq up to get those sweet sweet job promotions! *hums "moving on up" Jefferson theme song

568k at the start of Aug 25. So we have 72 hours to do 432k quests. I think we can do it! (:

I don't know how much the goal or days need to be adjusted. I know previously we've had more quests done by now, but it could just be a time of year thing. Right now is about the time school is starting, people are going back to college as well, and they just might be more focused on that for the first few weeks before they get their Subeta groove back on.
That being said, :) I'm glad the prizes will go to a later Quest-a-thon in the event we don't make it. But I'm going for every quest possible especially for the next few days. ;)

BoaConstrictor. You got between 140K-150K. This are nice rewards he can give when he has no increased rewards, but still great. Usually I got between ca. 100K - 150K. Today I got between 140K - 275K.

I believe this is possible. He gives at least less than before August 2015.Normal days he's given me pretty low, like 60k? Today the lowest he went was 130k, and several times got up to 240k. A definite increase for me. Maybe it's just luck?

Since August of 2015 Saggitarius Quests are more equal compare with the rewards from the other quest givers. Since January 2016 he asks two items.

I remember thinking at the start of this, when I saw the average for the day was definitely lower than what it should be, I had a feeling it wasn't going to be reached. I'm pretty sure of that by this point. Just too high a goal with fewer players on right now. But still, it's nice to see that the prizes will be reused at a later date.
I can say honestly, though, that I hope I end up being wrong about not making it, but sure doesn't look good at the moment.

@Samaritan Actually, that's something that's been used for every single quest-a-thon. I realized I didn't include it in the original post (like I've done in the past), but I had a few people ask me about prizes being reused and thought it'd be best to add it straight to this news post too. :)

Whoooooooo Weekend quest galore! THIS is why I love Quest-a-thons. :D
So much sP making. <3 Which goes into funding battling for that Core. Cause damn, costs like 3mil just to get 200 battles done. And I need like 1000... Which isn't that bad, honestly, but it's nice to have quests make up for it.
As for how long it takes to complete all quests, for me it's probably around an hour if I watch tv and really go for it and maybe 90 minutes if I'm casual about it with a youtube video playing on the side. (The video makes Subeta load slower, but it's worth it.)

Wow thank you for the weekend quests that will help with constant pet healing for the battle event :heart:.
Is anyone else noticing site lag when trying to buy quest items from user shops?
It seems to take awhile for a shop purchase to go through to finish a quest ^_^.

Saggi has special rewards?
On normal days I get 140 - 150 k unless he asks for rarity "normal" instead of "(super) rare".
Same today. No increase whatsoever.

Maybe you are more lucky than you think and he gave you all the time already a little more sp than he gave to other users when he have not increased rewards. Today I have seen some difference with his special rewards tough. ;)
What's up with Saggi? It says, he is WEQ, but I'm not getting more than normal.

rhino_loupe
@Elwyn If you don't make the goal, you get all the rewards that you got from questing. Which should be more than enough incentive to do them, especially if they're all weekend quests.

Thanks for the weekend quests! At the very least it has been a profitable week. I won't regret my gold account activation even if we don't make it.
So just how far behind are we? Maybe a full day?

I believe, some people were slacking, relying on others to get in a good share of the quests, because it seemed mega easy and we did so immensely well the first time, big mouthing the goal could have been set much higher.
And now with 2 more hard goals on hand with the boss and the minis - actually I "fear" all the other guys are already stomping ground - we don't have enough resources to make up for being lazy the first couple of days.

Why don't we also increase the quests to 15 for non GA holders and 20 for GA holders? Then most probably we can reach our goal by Sunday.

We're only at 445k/625k. It's still early to tell, but it's going to be extremely challenging to pull at least 125k like we did on Sunday. We have to beat that daily by a significant amount for the rest of the event.

(Double the rewards for completing the Quest-a-thon, and we'll certainly hit the 1M mark) ;)
Actually, a few days extension would be the better alternative with battling going on. But if we could reach 600k/625k by the end of today with the help of the bonus quests, maybe there is some hope.

ya, I didnt mean to sound whatever. I apologise if it came off rude or anything. Im used to doing my 90 quests & 30 BQs within a certain time frame. I dont like to sit on this site for more than 90min a day, so I do them as quick as possible ;) Also just got sick of ppl complaining about an event that happens more than once a year.

LittleStereo
Probably a good idea. I think August is just a really busy month for people in school or have kids in school!

Lady_K
I'm with some of the others, as none of the rewards for the quest-a-thon are anything I want. I don't want another pet slot (as I'm not using all mine anyway) and the title and other things aren't enticing. Maybe offer a choice of something other than pet slots next time?
1
Solsticesprite
If you have so little time, chances are good you can't get the Core even if you tried. Do the lovely quests instead. Train your pet more, better luck next Gelatin War (and there will be one).
In terms of total amount of time needed for each goal, there's no comparison. In terms of who could possibly get the Core, we are a small portion of the total possible questers.

I feel like I just don't need another pet slot, maybe have an option next time for something small in place of a slot? Like a slot or maybe 25ccs? Cause I'd do a ton of quests to be able to do a day of training for a pet instead.

As much as I love things to do, making people choose between the already-high expectations for the quest-a-thon and grinding for battle achievements seems like something we should try to avoid next time

Marine
Still an awful idea to have two events going on at the same time, imo, because they're both time-intensive and distracting. :/ And some people would rather spend their time battling, which.. detracts from quest-a-thon, and vice-versa.
I really appreciate this because it's a kick in the butt for people to do as many quests as possible, and more profit is always nice? But I still feel like this was set up to fail once the gelatin war complicated things.
I guess we'll see.

Ha. Haahahahahah. "35-40 mins". I am sheerly amazed at the idea that there are people with good enough internet connection or good enough health and wrist function that they can actually get all 90+ quests done that quickly. Unfortunately, that isn't subeta's demographic. Most of us either don't have good computers or good internet, or we have health issues and often issues with our wrists that mean questing takes a good 2+ hours of devoted time, sometimes longer if you need to take half hour breaks in between questing for the sake of being able to use your wrists later that day. Not everyone has even two hours to give to the site, either. I'm not saying that is anyone's fault. No one is to blame. I just wanted to mention that for most people questing is something we WANT to do, but it takes us A LONG TIME. :p

Laurey
30-40 minutes is a lot of time if you usually only spend a few hours a day on the site, that's time that some people may decide to devote to battling instead when they may have otherwise done their quests if that was the only option.
1
CastlesInTheSky
doing at least 90 quests isnt "time consuming" unless some think 35-40min out of 24Hours is time consuming.
Thanks for the WE quests until the remainder of this. :)

@Amber And I feel like if we wouldn't have made the goal without the Gelatin War then it would have been fine because maybe people just didn't care as much this time around or something.
But now we have two events that both involve just a lot of clicking, if you're one of the people who wants to do both then it's just not fun. Events like this shouldn't be just about whether or not we make the goal, having too much stuff going on at once can be overwhelming for some people and just makes the game not as fun to play as it would be if it was maybe one event at a time.

Again, @Laurey, it's fine if you guys don't make it. If the goal isn't met, we'll reuse the prizes for the next one and lower the overall goal or increase the amount of days. You've all done quest-a-thons during another holiday/event before (Luminaire when a lot of people are offline because of family stuff). Some people have thrown around that we've tried to set you guys up to fail, but that's not it at all. We wanted to increase the challenge because remember how quick you guys finished the first two quest-a-thons? I think like a day or two ahead of time for one of them.
9
Amber
@Laurey If you guys don't make the goal, which is entirely possible, then we'll reuse the prizes later on in the fall and do another quest-a-thon for you guys. This time it's meant to be harder because you've made all the previous times (which we've done more than 750k quests before, in shorter time, longer time, etc).

Laurey
Hopefully this helps.
Still think it was a bad idea doing both events at once, but we might still make it.
