Hey everyone, I'm sorry for the delay on your reward. We should be getting to this very soon!
https://gswiki.play.net/mediawiki/index.php/HSN_RPA_Contest
Just a reminder, EVERYONE on the list won GALD. The top 10 won one of the offerings from SEF. And first place received a $20 Box Office credit (those were applied in August, and all taken care of). Someone will track you down in game to talk with you about your prize. If for some reason we can't get in touch with you, I'll send out an email to your play.net address (or you can preemptively do that to mine) and we can schedule something.
See you soon!

Yep. Like I said, I'll track people down, some other GMs may help me. Once I feel like I've exhausted my attempts to reach out to everyone, we'll have to put a deadline on it.

Hi guys! I'm going to bring Kyrdra down a few nights at around 10pm eastern to redeem wins for this. I'll be in Landing on Friday, Ta'Illistim on Saturday and Mist Harbor on Sunday (I'll send out a crier when I've set up). If you're on Teras, reply here with your character name and I'll try to grab you on one of those nights about that time. Kyrdra will ONLY be redeeming GALD wins from this list, and not spinning for extra, sorry!

Wow! Nice job.
Any chance there's a breakdown for the RPAs as a function of town they were awarded? It looks fairly Landing-heavy.

People have brought it up a few times with flat modifiers and different RPA versions. I added a few more messages to the Wiki around this, but I've never been able to identify the differences explicitly.

Hey all,
Kyrdra was scheduled to swing by Mist Harbor tonight at 10pm eastern to redeem GALD services for winners, but I find myself far too ill right now to make a good show of it. I'll certainly pop by MH later this week, and I'll announce before I do so. If I've missed you so far this weekend, I'll also try to track down winners individually as well when I am able.

>The timer is outrageously long on RPAs. It's not worth micromanaging a few extra hundred XP when it's weeks and weeks of absorption for most players.
I've found this to be true as well.
Then again, I'm presently keeping data and testing the theory of doing as many bounties as possible on Gift vs. sitting on a supernode saturated as often as possible on Gift to see the experience difference, since I have heard (but not really believed) that maximizing bounties was the best way to maximize experience. So far the difference I've observed is less than 2%, which is likely indistinguishable with the present data and the statistical error.
All that to say is, some people enjoy micromanaging and squeezing every last 100 experience out, but most of us can safely ignore it.

Last one I got was gone within 5 hours and it would have been gone within an hour of normal play if RPAs worked like the wiki claims rather than like Lumnis does. Activities that result in lots of dribbling exp at one per pulse, like partnering for guild reps, slaughter Lumnis, and I believe they slaughter RPAs too, though the wiki claims otherwise.

Experience multipliers (like from an RPA) and the Gift of Lumnis work exactly the same way. GoL is a 3x RPA with a duration of 6 hours, except that it skips the "1.5x" step that a normal RPA would provide.
Normal RPAs step down from 4x to 3x to 2x to 1.5x; if you only get awarded a 3x (your RP was good, but not THAT good) then you start from 3x down to 2x down to 1.5x.
Gift of Lumnis doesn't give the 1.5x, but other than that, it's exactly the same.

Yeah, the biggest issue I'm running into in Platinum is no one is ever around when I am in. I'm likely going to send all (Prime and Platinum) of you 1st/2nd place winners an email to your play.net address to start scheduling these. My schedule seems to suck, haha.
