the weight of the world thingy, how do i participate in this? i played all night last night and nothing seems to change when i do quick play.

You should be participating automatically. Are you sure you played after the event opened, and not before?

I got confused too and got the close of the last event wrong based on the other date/time I read while scanning over the basic info.

I know some profile settings let you choose your time zone and then they do not have to put up multiple date/time configs that get lost in a quick scan. The front end can then have a neat oversized flashing box that sees the current time and your preferred setting and lets you know the status.

As a web designer I went to a programmer and worked with him to get the code and put it into the front end for a similar task. BUT it was really neither of our jobs unless it made the institution look good. Welcome to the online world. It was not hard on either of our parts, but it was outside of the "standard" flow.

maybe they could just have a counter in real time, count down type thing like 2 hours 10 minutes remaining till event begins and once it starts show how much time remains till even is over etc.

ive completed my medium mech stuff, so its working all good now. i could use some mech bays now...

They will need to have each person select their time zone. Plus it needs to be in a way that you better be below 60 IQ if you do not see the selection choice and the community also agrees with the accessibility.

I love how they hold an event and put up PTS at the same time. It is as if they want to shoot themselves in the foot. PGI--want to do something great? Put the event ON THE PTS SERVER to force people to test!

(rewards paid on live server, of course)

That idea is just way to good to use, apparently.

7 bucks gets you 1300 MC, so that is 5 bays with 100MC left over, +plus if you do all the classes, (use trials if needed), you will get a bonus 300MC which is One.

Highly recommend spending 7 bucks if you can swing it,. helps a ton
