Nexowned again

The Time Capsule event states on the patch note that it's from September 2nd till September 29th. And even though my egg's still here and the quest is still in my quest log, they've stopped the feathers from dropping and I needed 100 more feathers until I got the totem... Thanks Nexon. Screwing me over like always...

No maple points or anything. Don't quite think that's fair for one person to get MP and no one else...

I was literally 50 feathers away so I sent in a ticket and this is the response I got...

Greetings Mapler,

Thank you for contacting Nexon America Customer Support.

We are glad to assist you on your issue. The event calendar considers the Time Capsule and Hot Dog's Thanks to be a single event. The Time Capsule event ends on Sept, 22. From Sept. 23 - Sept. 29, the 2nd part of the quest, Hot Dog's Thanks will be available to players that had turned in 1,500 feathers during the Time Capsule event. We apologize for not making it clear on our patch notes or in-game dialog.

Unfortunately, since you were not able to turn in 1,500 feathers on this event, you will not be able to proceed to the second part of the quest - Hot Dog's Thanks (9/23 - 9/29). I understand that you were not aware of the premature completion of the quest. Thus, I have compensated your account for 4,000 MaplePoints for the inconvenience you have experienced. Please give it around 24 hours to take in effect.

Sincerely,

GM Alirsal
Nexon America, Inc.

Me thinks all they're going to do is "take note" and make sure it "doesn't happen next time".

I also cannot find the quest to get the Cygnus totem. halp pls

(yes I got the chicken chair and totem)

Also, @roflcopter79, the portal inside the mayor's building (the one that hosted Starling and the egg during the event) has been sealed off. We can't enter it anymore. If we had to talk to Starling to get the Cygnus Totem quest, I guess we're screwed too?[/quote]

@roflcopter79, this is what happens when I try to go into that portal [url=http://i.imgur.com/gvQykwU.gif]hALP[/url]

You sure? Youre meant to get a 3rd chair when you hand in 1,500 feathers.

[quote=skythedestroyer]They gave about a week of cushion in case you forgot to turn in your feathers...it's not like an attendance that has no cushion days. We've had plenty of time.

That said, I don't like that the feathers suddenly stopped dropping without notice; don't get me wrong. But we've had plenty of time. 15 days to complete it, and about a week of extra time to this date.

I feel like the development team is kept in the basement, and the support staff are in the big glass upper level. In between are a bunch of unsavy janitors they have to use as middlemen to elaborate for the notes how an event works.

I guess we can all log tickets. That's what I'm doing. Maybe they'll extend it since it does clearly state on the note as well as the event tab in game that the Time Capsule Event ends the 29th.

[quote=wall]I always thought we only had until yesterday to "warm" the egg, then from now until the 29th we just wait for the cygnus totem. But I agree it wasn't explained very well.[/quote]

There's two parts to the event. The Time Capsule event where we gather feathers. And the Hot Dog's Thanks event where we hatch the egg and collect the rewards. If you look at the update note, it clearly states that the Time Capsule event ends on the 29th. http://maplestory.nexon.net/news/3741/v-165--pink-bean-superstar-patch-notes#Capsule
