Feldon From SmokeJumper on the EQ2 Forums:
Since the holidays are upon us, we wanted to drop you a note so you could plan.
We’ll be running Double XP days from Dec 30th through Jan 2nd 3rd!
This is way more advance notice than we usually give, but well…we’ll be celebrating the holidays too, so we wanted to tell you now.
Time Zone Conversions
Barring any unforeseen changes, the Double XP weekend would be:
- PST: December 30 @ 12:01AM ~ January 3 @ 11:59PM
- EST: December 30 @ 3:01AM ~ January 4 @ 2:59AM
- GMT: December 30 @ 8:01 ~ January 4 @ 7:59
- CET: December 30 @ 9:01 ~ January 4 @ 8:59
When’s usually the next dbl exp weekend after new year?
Just making sure I’m not losing my mind. Shouldn’t that be
•EST: December 30 @ 3:01AM ~ January 3 2:59AM
•GMT: December 30 @ 8:01 ~ January 3 7:59
•CET: December 30 @ 9:01 ~ January 3 8:59

Maybe I am blind but I don’t see the deference in the one you posted and theirs except you excluded the PST time zone.
Landiin,
I approved the comment and corrected the time zones in my article at the same time. All part of my evil plan. 😉
Feldon,
Ha! I always *KNEW* you worked for the dark side! 😉
sooo many apologies …. despite the moderator ministry of information deleting threads that make SOE embarassed, players managed to point out that the cloak marked as part of the child’s play charity donation was in fact not part of it at all (it was not corrected from last year). So SOE did the right thing:
Domino:
“SOE are [sic] going to donate $10 to charity for each cloak that was purchased.
However, this year’s intended Child’s Play charity item is the “Child’s Play Bundle” and you can find full details of that promotion in this article.
To remove the confusion, the text on the cloak has been corrected and the cloak has been removed from the marketplace. If you already purchased it, of course, you still have the cloak and we thank you for helping support this charity.”
They were so flustered, they removed the cloak entirely! Seems like a bit of overkill. At least the money did get donated after all.
So people in PST only get double XP till the 2nd but everyone else till the 3rd? Sorry, I like yo play stupid off of people’s typo’s sometimes. Thanks for the website Feldon, much appreciated by this little Assassin.
Now I feel even dumber. No typo, guess I need to learn how yo read a calander.
@Feldon
Oh ok, I was thinking I was missing something obvious as normal and couldn’t find it! You evil evil man!
Yay, now everyone can have their ‘instant’ 90/320 BL… so much for that having any special feel to it.
