No.


Each one a different weekend (although there may be a lil overlap between them in a couple spots near the holidays :))

But it is meteorological winter*, so perhaps you could call it a meteorological winter bonus weekend...

* For reasonable places

Well I live in AZ so the only way we know if its winter is when the temperatures get to maybe 60 degrees F. So technically its never really winter in Arizona

so you take a game that is having issues already and pile more trouble on top of it?
not a smart move.

Thanks for the bonus!

It ought to take a little bit of the edge off of some ED grinding.

Yes, because giving us more XP will make your connection worse. Sadly I'm out of rep for the day.

The National Weather Service considers winter to be December, January, and February. Considering mean temperature, its a far more realistic definition than the official definition.

And it didn't even take 1 whole page before people started arguing about what Winter is.

Ya gotta love the interwebz!

Thank you for that. I haven't laughed that hard from reading a post here in a long while.

Was that the sound of something flying over your head?

*hint* look at post 2 to see what the ongoing joke is about.

I'm all for the Epic XP boost. I dont know what you read, but what I posted was that the Risa games are going to put extra workload on a game that is currently having issues with collisions and characters getting stuck in walls.
I wonder how many people jumping for coins are going to be happy when they find themselves stuck in the middle of an ice ramp.

CC was canceled because of it, so why not the Risa Games?

ok, between your other thread and this one, I feel like I am starting to go batty, so I have a couple questions for you:

1) Where in your first post in this thread, which Gkar quoted, did you mention Risia?

2) Why do you seem to think Risia is going on?

3) Do you know the difference between Ice slides, Festivult coins dropping in chests, and bonus XP?


I'm really sincerely curious, because I would like to know how you think an event that is not actually happening is currently causing you lag. I think perhaps you are so focused on blaming the game or the devs, that you might be missing something else that could be the culprit...that, and I REALLY feel lost trying to figure out why you are going on about Risia. :confused:

This is what the whole community wants to know since his first post.

We already have the answer, it is Turbine's fault. End of story.

Yes, I read the second post and understood the joke. I made another. Sometimes humor stacks.

Thank <insert favorite diety here> for the webnet. I cannot imagine an existence where every possible error I've ever made, real or perceived, would not be pointed out to me.

And yes, there's probably math or spelling errors in this post. Someone will be along shorty to point them out.

Yup, sometimes humor stacks, sometimes it just fails outright.

What I read? I read what you said. Specifically, in a thread about an Epic XP weekend, you said:

So with the only topic being discussed being XP, and with you not saying ANYTHING about anything else (including a Risia festival that I don't think has even been announced), you complain about your poor connection.

Maybe you should read what you type before you hit that submit button.

Apparently. I'm gonna call it a bug.

And once again, you just have to point out my failures. ;)

Maybe you should checkout the Lamannia release notes. It isn't all doom and gloom. :)
