    Actually, we had the day off, so it was an extended weekend, but that didn't stop some of us from keeping an eye on things. And as you saw in one of the other threads on this subject, Bunji was able to resolve the issue. It was not related to Tinkerfest in the least.

    There were no patch notes, so I'm not sure what of your changes went in, Kaitheel, but I have good news and bad news.

    The good news: Great Balls of Fire CAN now be repeated up to 50 times. (I repeated it another 10 times today to hit the 50 mark)
    The bad news: There is no title or other fanfare when you complete those 50 reps - she just stops offering you the quest.

    The title comes from the merchant, not as a quest reward. Did he not have the new title scroll for sale?

    Yeah, they were submitted but no notes were created. Seems the update notes system could use some lovin'.

    Heh, you didn't mention that little detail. I'll finish this writ that I am on, and port back and check. Does the other title work that way as well?

    Ok, I have both titles (I thought I might have missed a year due to too many alts). Pretty sure I can guess which one goes with which. :) Going to be some edumacating needed for the masses, so they don't miss out on buying these once they earn them.

    For the Great Balls of Fire prefix title, should it really be plural like that? I'd think singular would work better (...men vs ...man)

    Edit: The hubbyogre also brings up a valid point that you may be dancing close to copyright issues with that prefix title.

    Niami helped me out with the titles, many thanks and love! :)

    Whew! Thank goodness! :D

    Kudos and thanks to those of you who kept an eye on things for us! :)

    Yay, Bunji! :D

    Glad it wasn't anything strange that happened with Tinkerfest; was a bit worried that it might interfere with our testing of it, especially given such a great opportunity with the double xp weekend. :)

    Uwk

    Holy Erollisi, this thread got buried. Sorry for the belated completion of testing on this event.

    CRAFTING / ITEM ISSUES
    • All house items in Tinkerfest Blueprints 7.0 are flagged as Mastercrafted and have no rent status reduction. If they are to follow suit with previous years, they should be Handcrafted and 25 RSR.
    • Back in 2009 the item "Small Rhodium Gear (Inactive)" was added to Myron's inventory. This year the same item was added to the recipe book plus Myron's inventory (the older version is on Tarly). The items look different, but could they please get different names as well to differentiate better? (see pics below)

    Interesting! And here I thought we were following the previous years perfectly, but it turns out that we've been inconsistent. All of the crafted Tinkerfest house items since 2013 have been Mastercrafted. I don't think I would gain much changing 3 years worth, at this point. Is the RSR that desirable any longer?

    Oops! I bet that was a copy pasta error. The name will be changed.

    Ah, Calthine did 2013-2014 Tinkerfest crafting on the site, so that's why we never caught it. The RSR isn't a big deal, and if Mastercrafted is the new standard that's fine as well. Guess you can tell the last time I made Tinkerfest recipes on live... :D

    A-ha! Do you have the new item name yet by chance? Would save me a touch of sanity when fixing the guide!

    I want a plushie of that Clockwork Grappler Beetle petamorph. It's so cute (for an insect)! :eek:
    edit: disregard, that's what I get for going through the list in reverse...

    It'll be "Elaborate Rhodium Cog (Inactive)"

    Very original. Very.

    Ahhh sneaky!

    So, just to be more of a PITA about this.. I think the Elaborate Rhodium Cog (Inactive) shares an appearance with Medium Rhodium Gear (Inactive). Test should be down at the moment so I can't check in-game, but the screenshots I have for the gear and cog seem to match.

    Sigh. Joy. Oh, well. I don't have replacement art 2 days before the event. Doubles it is! (No really, sometimes I get so frustrated with myself. Sorry.)

    Sorry! Wish I had caught that sooner.
