Final Test for Carnival of the Ascended

[Slipmat]

Seems likely the Carnival of the Ascended will hit the live servers next week, although it wouldn't surprise me if they sneakily started Phase One this week

Anyhow, starting yesterday (Mon Feb 20th) and running through until Thursday, Feb 23th, all the six phases will be available for a final test

Come join the devs on PTS Monday 2/20 through Thursday 2/23, beginning @ 3:00PM PST (10:30PM GMT) on Monday.

We will be testing phases 0-6. You will get your first look at the newest world event as we try to find any kinks, bugs, or pressure points. New tweaks and features have been added, so be sure to join us. As this is a brand new feature, don’t expect it to be 100% fully functional, but that’s what PTS is for!

The schedule will run as follows:

Phase 0 – Monday, February 20, 3:00 PM
Phase 1 – Monday, February 20, 5:00 PM
Phase 2 – Tuesday, February 21, 3:00 AM
Phase 3 – Tuesday, February 21, 3:00 PM
Phase 4 – Wednesday, February 22, 3:00 AM
Phase 5 – Wednesday, February 22, 3:00 PM
Phase 6 – Thursday, February 23, 3:00 AM

Event End – Thursday, February 23, 6:00 PM

Been running around and testing a few of the mini games, all seem nicely polished up now and look about ready to go live

Here's the mini horse racing one, you pick your colour and then spam jump on your platform to "encourage" your horsie to go faster



Here's a brief montage of having your fortune told, popping balloons and shooting dwarves from cannons, never grows old



I also wouldn't recommend drinking or partying too much at the Carnival, these guys will actually mug you if you are drunk !
