Carved a pumpkin this year? Check out Lynx’s ‘How’s your pumpkin’ thread in Not Related and post your carvings! Some very cool stuff in there, and I’m sure people would like to see more.

So it has been long enough since it was last mentioned, which means we should talk about it.

Double Gains was mentioned as something that will happen at some point after the Christmas Raid and Christmas job were gone. Since they are gone, I suppose it's time that we get it.

When can you expect it to start? Well for the sake of making it as simple to answer:

Click here to just see the countdown

How long? 96 hours after that. Or 4 days.

What does double gains affect? Well:

Does
-Double Experience from PVP and Hunt
-Double Item Experience
-Double Honing Experience
-Double payout from jobs
-Double Warfare points
-Double energy per hour (400/hour)
-Double boon xp

Does not
-Double Crafting Experience
-Double transferred Experience
-Double Job Experience
-Stack with buffs (for things like 4x job payout)
-Double hunting points
-Double gang rep gains/loss
-Double Drone xp
-Double raid xp
-Double Casino payout
-Double Drop rate
-Double Focus gain
-Double HP heal at hospital
-Double default token gain
-Double Page load times
-Double rewards from daily quests

And uh, oh, right, a new Werewolf game to break try out. New roles, slight alterations to roles, and the same chaos we all love to hate.

Double Gains is now live and will be active until Dec 29, 11:59:59 PM server time (what you see in the top right as Will mentioned in his blog post below).

[Did it since Will said Dec 16 as early as possible and he may not be around atm]

Enjoy folks!

Double Gains is now live until approximately 7AM May 15.

For those confused as to what this means, that means the same as last time Double Gains was live.

To be more specific:
-Double energy (400/hr)
-Double job payout (per job)
-Double item xp gain
-Double xp from fights (PVP and Hunting)
-Double WFP gains
-Double xp from honing

And because I'm sure it is a question: various plat boosts will stack as well, such as the Energy Boost (so you get 440 energy/hr)

Also, I am not sure if this includes drop rates and ability points. I will ask Aldo for clarification on this.
