The ring event

I only got 10 upgrades on my first ring because Gaga didn't let me get any more upgrades beyond 10, but I was wondering if I am still eligible for the Absolute Ring in the end?
It says 1-10 days for medal, 11-20 for shoulder, 21-30 for chair, and 31+ for the absolute ring, so I'm guess it's fine as long as you have 31+ days?

For the last day (the + day), put your tradeable ring in the storage and get another clean ring, and upgrade that.
So technically, you can upgrade 36 times.
If you do every + day by that method, you are still eligible to get the ring.

Nexon profits off of your confusion.

at least 31 Days:

You can exchange your three 2013 Evolving Ring rings for an Absolute Ring. You'll also receive the Absolute chair, shoulder accessory, and medal.[/quote]

Sorry, meant the ring upgrades.
I'm assuming you need at least +10, +10, and +11, since it doesn't necessarily state you need 31-33 upgrades on the ring, only days/stamps.
Then again, the stamps correspond to the number of upgrades, but I don't think it matters, so long as you have 31-33 upgrades total?
Nexon was very vague with this event.. I'm just going to upgrade my rings whenever available and see how it goes.

[quote=MeMagicalPie]@Ghetto415: Nexon said you are given the option to combine your rings if you have 31 days stamped
As to whether or not the rings have to be level 10+ or 11, no one here knows[/quote]

You have to have 31+ days stamped to get the Absolute Ring.
I'm assuming that's all you need to get it, the rings are just kinda pointless.

I don't really understand how people are having such difficulty

So theoretically, I should be able to get the absolute ring as long as I do the 11 and + days for phase 2 and 3 correct?

So, since the event notes say 1-10 days for the medal, and 11-20 for shoulder, 21-30 for chair, and 31+ for the ring, I'm still eligible for the ring? They still have 11 and + days for phase 2 and 3 right?

[quote=RoyChaKim]If you needed a stamp than you should've got it on the + day but now it's too late. So i don't need to explain how to get another stamp.[/quote]

People were not able to use that twelfth day to upgrade when they tried to. In other words, on that + day people who missed a day earlier were left with +10 or less rings.

The language that Nexon uses in [url=http://maplestory.nexon.net/news/events/in-progress/00Gvh/]this page[/url] is ambiguous. This page does not say how many times you need to upgrade your ring in order to qualify for the Absolute ring. In the [url=http://maplestory.nexon.net/news/updates/update-notes/00GuT#absolute]Patch notes[/url], you need to upgrade the rings 11 out of 12 days, but it also says that you need to participate 31 days, which suggests that you can have +10 rings as long as at least one of them is a +11.

But no one is certain what is the case. I don't think anyone was expecting to get that message on the 12th day. And this event was not in KMS so we don't know how it operated in the past. So we have to wait for the time to upgrade to the Absolute ring to see what happens.
