Thank you for the extension Matt, its very much appreciated. Just remember to kick your Web-Monkeys in the bananas for us for not putting up the web announcement sooner.

It's all me, bro... Self Kick in the bananas.
This event was planned but with so much going on with Mech_Con next weekend I didn't get the images done and posted until this morning.

Ooh a month of daily events.... right when I'm about to spend two weeks out of state and away from my computer. It's finally happened, I can finally be one of those people complaining about this!
Nah, maybe not.

The first Day Extended to overlap with Day 2.
Yes the Day Changeover is at 00:00 UTC
That is 7 PM EST, 4 PM PST

Thanks, Matt! Still not able to access the in-game Event Browser, so having the webpage being up in a timely manner really helps!

[PanzerTC]

Matt - I like the explanation and it makes sense now with all thing things going on. Day 1 down all the rest to go. Thanks. Enjoy the Mech-madness. Thanks for the extension.

[TheFourthAlly]

As I said in some random thread on the forum, Yay for this starting on Friday night Oceania Time zones, bit of a 'Que?' for there being no announcement on the front page.

1000 damage I can do and did, so snowflake and some spacegold for me anyway.

[Kalimaster]

I was not expecting this. 24 Days to Christmas--Mech Style! Time to break out my Jagermech and stick the Urbie back in the closet. Thanks guys.

What Peeking? They were merely looking at Day Titles.

On more serious notes, I seem to be able to get Kills. However, even though I'm focusing targets, I'm not able to get the KMDD along with it. Or if I get the KMDD, I can't get the Kill. If I get both, somebody usually cuts me down shortly after. I really wish this 'Day 2' thing had instead been done with "Savior Kills" as the requirement. Takes too much luck to not get KillSteal'd by someone else.

And less than an hour after this, I somehow get the Solo Kill after having to massively focus an 'HGN-IIC' in my 'UM'... What a terrible designator for a Mech, and what a horrible death after getting that Solo Kill. *facedesk*

EDIT :: Almost forgot to mention, I'm now +1 massive headache.

[PresumptuousP]

So.. how does this work, All I see is the day one, and even though ive killed, shot died and etc etc no rewards are unlocking after hours, no progress is being listed nothing. So...

[Colonel Presumptuous]

Nvm, just realised I was using the wrong email to log in lol.. my bad

[James Argent]

Thanks for the extra time on day one...not like 1000 damage is hard or anything, but I'm sure that since I noticed this with about an hour left in the day (and the extension was already in place) there are definitely those who wouldn't have made it in time.

[Buenaventura]

Thanks for the extension, just found this about 4 hours into day 2.
Solo kill went easier than expected, shredded an Ebon Jag with the 6 HMGs of my BJ-A. Even got another solo kill in the same match.

@Matt: Although the days 13-24 are not in the ingame event tracker yet - haven't checked on the website to avoid peeking -, please consider extending at least day 24, maybe also day 23, to either start earlier or run for some days. I'm sure I'm not the only one who won't be near his pc for the holidays (that start on the 24th here, not the 25th like in the USA).

[Richard Schlapp]

What is the requirements for a solo kill again? Just score the killing blow and be KMDD, right?

Thanksgiving was a wonderful evening of dessert with Irish coffee made with a fine bottle of Jameson's. And Crown Royal in the cider. I don't remember much more than that, but I think I can blame that on alcohol poisoning.

[Groutknoll]

just need a 24 days of mechmas song made for Old Saint Atlas and Commando Ell !
