    Would be nice if they made the book and pages available until then as well for those that are gone for the weekend. 
    Maybe they will  o:)

    Just a heads up  that most of the Page statues are gone.

    Interesting decision not to leave it up for the weekend. People that have stuck around 25 years supporting the game were given less than 24 hours to claim their reward pages.

    Unfortunate for people like myself who were unable to attend yesterday, only to log in today without being able to get most of the rewards. Not sure how well that was thought out.

    Wierd, wonder why they’d have the expire on the 29th and then take them down the next day?

    some of the Pages statues were set for the 25th and some apparently were set for the 29th

    I luckily ran through it before server down and got one good book, to go along with the one i have with Two EM Hezekiah's (think i'll keep it like it is instead of fixing it.

    Most of the lore page statues were set to expire at 8pm last night. But they worked longer than that. Players were collecting a 11pm. The chat hamster on Origin was very tired after all the ,where's page so in so.

    You need to develop reading compression I'm not asking for any changes to Siege or mungen just wondering how they get their gifts from the faire..

    They have NEVER been able to in the past but because of your tear down everything tude now it is a problem.  You were not asking shit you were doing your normal BASH BASH BASH  So the developers just do nothing for those players?  So that is a good way to ask, BS

    So they were planning on giving people 5 hours (3pm event start to 8pm) to collect rewards? Weird that they give 25th anniversary tokens from Sept 1 to Oct 15 to be claimed but the lore book that I'm sure many people who like to have was less than a day to claim.

    Also, seems pretty ironic that it took them 6 months to give us something like a newsletter and then turn around to only give the player base 5 hours to collect rewards. Especially with some people saying "oh but they had real life something going on....". Many people had real life something going on yesterday which prevented them from participating in the event (which again it happens) and in addition to that they turn the statues off literally less than 24 hours later so people that log in the next day can't even get the reward?

    Very poorly planned in my opinion and not a great message to the player base that couldn't make it online yesterday (but were able to today).

    Not many people are on Siege as their main shard. It’s an alternate experience from their main shard for most people. Additionally, everyone one Siege knows and expects no transfers, so you are arguing for absolutely no reason on this issue.

    This took place instead of a personal meet up in a RL city.

    Those that do not attend those get nothing. So same for this one. Yes you have your opinion the players at the faire had fun.

    Thanks @Mesanna and EMs for doing this wonderful event. Ignore the complainers here and realize there are 100 players having fun for each of the disgruntled posters. It was more like 500 to 1 at the Faire.

    This is insanity Allen people who don't attend a gathering in real life do not expect gifts and logistically a small usually weekend is necessary in this case however it could and should have been a week long event on EVERY shard if mesanne wanted to show off her glacial outfit she could have visited them all the planning and quality control put into this is beyond unacceptable to all but the pom pom crowd

    Wonder some times just what the team is thinking?  Do they just assume that all of the players paying their $10 a month have shard shields?  Don’t quite understand the reasoning behind limiting this award to just players playing on Origin and those with shard shields.  To be Honest I don’t think it is worth the cost of a $40 round trip ticket from the UO store.  Sorry UO but this one just dumbfounds me.

    Plenty of players can bring items to your shard. After the event there were players in chat offering to take items to where they are going. I'll post when I am heading from Origin to Atlantic.

    With the hundreds maybe thousands of players at the event, it showed this was not a reason they did not participate.

    So you do not want someone to bring items to your shard.  Your decision.

    UO is a MMPORPG.  Use the MMP part to aid you.

    They assumed everyone has either a 14 year old account or would buy a shard shield to transfer off Origin. Personally I have a 14 year old account but didn't waste a vet reward for Origin Shields as I don't play there.

    So I agree with you since they plan to do this event online and on one shard, they should at least give out a free, one way transfer token from Origin to other shards.

    If they are worried players will exploit this, maybe limit to one per account, or say 50 items max, or expiry in 30 days.

    This is a much simpler item considering the amount of time and effort to create this event.
    If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

    As per usual, nobody believes you Pawain because you are known to be probably the biggest pom pom waiver in the game. Whatever you say is completely bias and everyone knows that. This same person is the one that complains when they aren't able to get rewards from things and says "people need more time to do stuff". Typical hypocrite reply as usual.

    This event was in the game and therefore should of been open to all for the entire weekend; it's comparing apples and oranges when trying to compare it to a real life gathering.

    Making this event a 2 hour event on Origin and then only leaving reward statues up until server up was a total oversight by this Dev team and shows they are completely out of touch with the average player base (that aren't busy trying to ass kiss). Again, every other thing that is done in game is given a ridiculously long time to run its course (and it's on every shard) but the 25th anniversary was limited to a single shard on a single day for a couple of hours. As it stands now, @Mesanna has completely ruined the 25th anniversary of the game with a complete lack of empathy for people unable to make the event (yet she asks for it for not being able to deliver NL this year). My point is further proven with the complete lack of content & communication about 25th anniversary happenings; making it feel like nothing more than a rudimentary anniversary.

    It’s not devotion to the developers. Just one of the core rules of the shard.  

    That said, it would be cool if there was some way to transfer the items to a home shard that allows shard transfers besides getting help from others.  I know I can get help from guild members but others might not have any connections and it can be difficult to trust people to follow through with their offers to help (scammers will always be around).  

    Overall, for me, it’s just more stuff to take up storage. So I’m not in a rush to get it moved.

    They were probably thinking that the UO community is such that we will help each other to transport the items.  Which we have/will. 
    I have so far transferred bags for 9 Europa players back to their home shard. My travelling character will be going back for another load later.
    Trolls and scammers aside, you are part of a huge caring community who help each other.
