Dear Players,

Because too many Labor points can results in a bug which prevents doing certain jobs, we have made the following changes to the Worker's character class extra event bonuses:
  • Labor points:
    • Level 1-150: +100%
    • Level 151-250: +15%
Thank you for your understanding!

Howdy Cowboys and Cowgirls,

As has previously been observed there is a 32K limit on labor points which is problematic with the New higher levels combined with modern gear and speed server bonuses. We have attempted to design around this bug but it has proven impossible without completely removing Labor points bonuses which is inconsistent with the goals of a speed server.

In order to address this issue, starting with 2022-12-23 12:00 the following changes will be implemented:
  • we are reducing the global Labor points bonus to +50% (instead of +200%),
  • we are reducing the Worker's class Labor points bonus to +15% at all levels (instead of +100% between level 1-150).
  • we are adding the following bonuses to the Worker's class:
    • +15% Health regeneration
    • +15% Money from jobs
Please note, there will remain circumstances where some people will still reach the 32K limit. You will simply have to factor that into your choice of gear for a given task. Also, we would like to highlight the fact that the labor points bug's priority has been raised, we hope that it will get fixed for future events, until that we won't be using high LP bonuses on our events.

While these changes have occurred only in the first 72 hours of the event, we still understand that for some this can be a deal breaker in terms of the Constructions ranking. We would like to express again our regret for the inconvenience cause by this issue and we have decided to introduce extra rewards in this category:
  • Construction ranking: 6th place - 10th place: Choose 1 item from any event set (2012-2021)
  • In extra: if a player is placed between 4th and 10th place (including) and they have had 151 or more levels before 2022-12-21 20:55 (CET) will win in extra a 1 x El Gringo set item.

As the event settings have been changed during the event in a way that it can change someone's strategy and the final ranking, we offer the following compensations:
  • All players who are registered at the moment of publishing this announcement have received 100 items of Expert detailed work instructions (+250 labor points - Uses: 10).
  • You may contact our support team and we can instantly delete your character and restart from scratch with another character class. You will lose all progress and start on level 1. Please already ask the deletion in-game, before sumbitting the ticket! Requests completion may require up to 24 hours.
  • You may totally resign from the event by contacting our support team. In this case your account will be banned and as a compensation we will grant you 50 Bonds on a chosen world. In order to be eligible for the bonds compensation your character had to be active in the event (min. level 20 had to be reached before this announcement; or level 3 if the character was created 30 minutes before publishing this announcement).
Please note: only characters registered before this announcement are eligible for these compensations. Request for restart or resign must be sent until 2022-12-23 23:59.

In addition, starting with 2022-12-23 12:00 the following items will be available in the SHOP for bonds and dollars:

Gift hunt collection card 2021 (ID: 52755000)
Christmas chocolate (ID: 52298000)
A piece of yellow fabric (ID: 52297000)
A box with collection card 2020 (ID: 52294000)
A box with collection card 2019 (ID: 51835000)
Holiday collection card (ID: 53140000)
Henry's name (ID: 51826000)
A wolf tooth (ID: 52296000)
Maya's name (ID: 51827000)
A conifer cone (ID: 52295000)

Cozy basket (ID: 52752000)

We wish you a pleasant experience on the event server!

Effective immediately, ‘no show digs’ and ‘excessive digs’ will not be tolerated. If you fail to attend a battle that you dug, dig 4 battles in any 24h period, or dig an additional battle when 7 battles are already scheduled Or ongoing, the digs will be canceled (no ticket necessary) and you will be banned temporarily or permanently at the discretion of The Team.
