2 things.
1) They'll probably write the question with such horrible grammar no one will be able to answer anwyay.
2) 10 seconds of chat = tons of hate.
It probably won;t be more than 10 seconds.
The poor GM that gets spammed will definately D/C.
Watch people D/C hack them.Quote:

But I do like. Hopefully the chat won't be........gay.
There better be some goggles involved. (lolwutidk?)
Well, this is one of the most interesting GM events ive seen in a while, hopefully I can participate.

They can toggle any of those on or off individually. Don't assume.
I've been waiting for the chance to talk to a GM for quite awhile. MS knowledge DONT FAIL ME NOW.

@takebacker: Well, aside from GMing PSes(which can toggle all of those), I can't provide proof, but you guys give Nexon credit for no more than picking their noses, they simply aren't THAT stupid. If PS'es can toggle them, you're damn sure the official version can.
So....what you're saying is you have no proof?Quote:

@takebacker: 10 seconds of being able to be yelled at. Something tells me people will be to busy blurting out incorrect answers to actually insult TOO much. And yes, I am aware that PSes != Official servers, but in that sense, it's more likely they'd have more flexibility, not less.
This seems more like "who can type the fastest?" rather than a trivia game. Unless the trivia questions are hard...
In a more serious manner.....Quote:

It could've been worse. I remember reading about the SEA version of this a while back. They made the players answer with weather megaphones or something, lol (point is they had to use nx).
good thing i play in window mode. ill have hidden-street open on the side ~0~
Who needs Hidden Street >_> Good luck looking up something and responding in time within 10 seconds.Quote:

WHOA.
I PRAY people with a masterful grasp of the English language, satisfactory competence, and the understanding of current GMS events and community emotions (aka, the perfect ambassador), wins the trivia. Just for this.
But lord knows 9/10 of those who win will be all "omg GM can u haste me? can you hs and bless me plz? u are so kewl! ty for talking 2 me!"
*Facepalms*
Personally, I find it really hard to type lik dis bcaz it just not nataral to me. Chances are anyone with a decent dose of english wouldn't have to waste time thinking about the words they type anyways and spell correctly (unless their diplomatic skills suck).Quote:

Please, everyone, if you win, ask about it :f5:
I can see the main draw for some on SP will be talking to the GM a-@ Hope they remember to SS the conversation :O
I hope they make hard questions, such as "From what ancient civilization is the Flash Jump symbol derived from?" instead of "What color is Snail?"
If you win, try to remember the GM's know nothing. So it's no use asking them "when will we get <new content name>?" or "will there ever be <desired feature>?" or anything else for that matter.
Use your chat time to inform them of what the community wants, and hope they actually pass it on (highly unlikely, but, *shrug*, can't hurt to try).
This will be insane.
I can imagine this event being a big flop. I don’t think the questions will be good.
They made people answer with the weather effects all the time for lots of events. I don't know if they still do. But at least you see GM's in SEA all the time, better than GMS.Quote:

I know this from eMS. ;K
Edit: At above, there's been events in gMS where you had to respond with Smegas in order to win.
Why the fixation about GM's? It confuses me a bit.
After all they are just low grunts at Nexon with little to no information about the stuff most of us want to know. Participate in their events if it float your boats, but don't expect them to give you any real information outside of what they are there for, because they are lacking in that department. Hell look at how they play in their own test server.
Yes, now you win.Quote:

Just make it like Maple, except with upped EXP and Droprate.
That's all I'm asking for.
You totally are right, and I totally agree with you.Quote:

About 25x normal exp would be good for most tespia content. That way, complete morons still can't hit 162, but we could still test anything.
Also Y0shi0, theres a damn good chance ours operates just as EMS does.
I agree (at the first part)Quote:

Maybe me, but considering they both originated from the same original version, I'd say assumptions are something I can make.

"What's a pirate's favorite type of movie?" -Rated RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
AN SP.NET PEEP ACTUALLY GOT THE LAST ONE!!!! He should be posting shortly, or I will shoot him... >_>
EDIT: http://www.southperry.net/forums/sho...946#post285946
In response to asking about Tespia, the GM said "Patience!" F2.
The last two questions were about who you advance to bowman with (Athena Pierce) and what might you run into if you are not careful on the Ellinia/Orbis ride (CRog). Unsure if there is more for now.
EDIT: Grats to Cyanne for getting the CRog one!! What did you ask?
I won and was at Lyka, but the GM wouldn't come to get seduced by lyka D:
Was there one in Broa yet? I wasn't here for the first two hours of the event parameters, but I'm afking in Maple right now...
Grats everyone, anyways.
I think there still hasn't been one in Bera. Haven't seen any smega/notice from a GM since the first hour the event was supposed to start on.
But yeah, I won't show my happiness about Tespia here, but you can see it on the Funhouse topic.
I hope they weren't lying, but why doing that?
Let's just hope we won't have to wait months and months more..
Event in Broa just started.
"What are the two items that the Goddess Statue at the top of the Orbis tower is holding?"
I failed. I said whip and book, but googling it just now says...an orb and staff. Lol.
Edit: 2nd question I didnt' type fast enough T.T Answer was Alcadno and Jemunist.
Edit2: 3rd question was What prisoner was trapped outside the Cave of Life? I failed again. By the way, how many questions are there?
Edit3: WTP. "What is GM Pharoah's favorite saying?" Answer: OFCOURSERAWR WHAT BS IS THAT!?!?
Edit4: Last question. "What does a Pirate's cat play with?" I guessed yarn, but I waited too long T.T.
Cyanne did you get your 10k NX immediately? D:
Nope, the GM said that it would be given out next server check. And there was no chat, all the GM did was warp to my map, tell me that I won, wish me luck for the 100k maplepoints thing, and tell me to watch out for the scary monster making me jump O_o

Dammit, I wish I had asked questions. >.< I won Bello's third question (I think it was third) and was too surprised that I won to ask questions (not the mention friggin spam >.>)
What's odd is that, even though I've been playing for over 3 years, this is the first time I've actually seen a GM in GMS. They need to host more of these events more often, IMO.
It appears they still haven't done the event in Bera. Anyone can confirm this?
Bellocan
Question 1
Q: What's the name of the first Maple Island Quest?
A: Seena's(?) Mirror
Question 2
Q: How many floors are in the Eos Tower?
A: 101
Question 3
Q: What is the name of that panda that lets you challenge the Mu Lung Dojo?
A: So Gong
Question 4
Q: What is the name of the map with a Katana in a rock (forgot the exact question)?
A: East Rocky Mountain III
Question 5
Q: Pirate Trivia: What sound do you make while you use mouthwash?
A: Gargle
#1 was rigged (that quest was in Maple Island v1, the real answer should've been whatever that Mushroom Candy quest was called. :f3:), was too slow on #2(confused for what ign to whisp), #3(ditto), and forgot the exact name for #4 and said Rocky Mountain III :ohno:. I got #5 right, thinking it would've been a Nautilus-related question, and it was easier than I thought. I wanted to ask the GM stuff, but was getting spammed, raped by Chief Guardians and was also speechless.. :f4:
Stalk'd
Don't die here!
GM's good luck
Bye bye!
The GM forgot to leave a notice for the answer and people kept asking :f5: I regret leaving my whispers on because I was getting very distracted :f7:
I'm surprised he didn't ban you for your name.
Wow, Southperry is owning this event!
Bera still hasn't seen this event.
Who, me? Why? :f3:Quote:

From this moment on i demand that any SPer ask the GM to say "Hi southperry!" if they win.
Hey that's mine thing :pineapple:erQuote:

Bera's event started around 9 p.m. Of course, RhoneBera had one of the most idiotic answer ever to the question: "Has Pink Bean ever been defeated?"
1.) Orb and StaffQuote:

4.) Rawr! Come on, even I knew that. Seriously. (okay, so I actually read the bios listings posted by NXwhatshisname long ago, and I still remember it)
5.) YARRRRRRRRnnn!!!! (FK you KoL, you made me this way!)
Why is the last question always involving pirates.
Hmm...
ARRRRRR!!!! :hothead:Quote:

I am also disappointed that Zach won the event but couldn't think of anything to ask the GM. :f3:
Obviously, they had to start it when it was 6 a.m. here.Quote:

You know, after what NEXON said about Elemental Wands (which then turned out they WEREN'T working as they intended) and other stuff, you can't trust them anymore, so I'd like to have a screenshot with the GM answering the Tespia question and see if he/she will answer "Patience" again.
*claps* Congrats Zach, maybe you will get those nudes you've been asking for!!! I had a feeling you were gonna win one of those questions.
These trivia questions all sucked. The last one was something like "WHAT SEA MONSTER ARE PIRATES MOST AFRAID OF????"
and I'm like THE KRAKEN and the GM goes
"SHARKS!!!!!!"
Hey, HEY now! I failed some questions because the GM's messed up the igns in the Notices while asking the questions and I got confused and answered to slow/too late. :f7:Quote:

EDIT: Bingo! They didn't do the event on the times they said AGAIN. They were supposed to do it once around 7 AM to 1 PM and another time around 3 PM to 7 PM.
Guess what.
They skipped the 7AM to 1PM (4PM to 10PM here) time both days in Bera, which was the most convenient time for me. *sigh*
Not a chance to win. :f7:
Well I won again.. somehow and I asked this GM (diff. GM)
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/e.../whatagain.png
Sorry.. It's either secret and coming or they don't know yet.
I won the last out of the 5 in Bera today; about as OSSIM and epic as winning the 20 MELLLION RUPEES on the Indian-equivalent of Who Wants to be a Millionaire.
CHECKLIST:
- 10,000 Maple Points (CHECK!)
- Chance to win the grand prize of 100,000 Maple Points (Omit)
- Personal visit and chat time with a GM (Half)
- Smega congrats from a GM, announcing you as the winner (CHECK!)
I'd love to detail this in the Scroll Lock Section.
"-Personal visit and chat time with a GM"
More like "Let's ask 1 question or say 1 thing, and then have them say "OH, WE CAN'T TALK TO YOU NOW. BYE!""
I'm kind of worried I won't even be applicable for the 100k thing because I'm in there twice lol.
Anyone know what the answer was to Windia's last question today? The GM asked what 80-90% of a mushroom is. It took me a while to guess stem, but still doesn't really make sense, lol.
I missed the first question, the second question was what was the name of the chief of Leafre, the third question was name the four monsters on display at the aquarium zoo, and the fourth question was what did you have to activate in the Black Mage's underground lair or something like that.
I was the first to win in Bera, but I didn't get my MaplePoints yet. -_-
I whispered "White pixels" for the mushroom question. : \Quote:

Gm Final Question in Bello:
In Ellinia Station, there is a box to the left of the NPC. What is written on that box?
And we were like, "LOL GG" :goggle:
You get it in the next SC.Quote:
