The FFR Crossword Event! - Page 13

**jgano** · 04-19-2013, 09:08 PM

I was able to finish 2 of them. Just missing one word for people and a few words for trivia.

EDIT: Got the people one, too. Don't know if I'll get the trivia one though.

EzExZeRo7497 · 04-19-2013, 09:13 PM

Was able to finish terms and people, then I just stopped because I realised that everyone already finished lmao.

EDIT: I honestly feel pretty bad for not being able to help.

**funmonkey54** · 04-19-2013, 09:15 PM

I tried so hard to access the puzzle and participate with my team.
I'm really sorry guys. :/

I feel like I abandoned some really great friends of mine on this one. I just couldn't get anything to work.

**Hazelle** · 04-19-2013, 09:27 PM

Terry and I (Bluearrowll) Have teamed up.

EDIT: Crap I missed the deadline? :l Lame.

**jgano** · 04-19-2013, 09:29 PM

I was wondering: for those who definitely got the FFR terms crossword right, did the screen go blank for you? Because I'm certain I got all the words right, but the screen doesn't change.

Awww, it's okay! I know you tried your best to make it, and that's all that matters. Glad we could be on the same team since I hadn't talked to ya in a while. ^.^

I think we have everything done; just waiting for confirmation from foxfire. Thanks for holding the event -- it must have been really stressful dealing with all these issues x.x

EDIT: @jgano: We were having problems with the FFR Terms one as well; you're not the only one.

justin_ator · 04-19-2013, 11:00 PM

Had a feeling I would miss everything..

**foxfire667** · 04-19-2013, 11:33 PM

Holy crap that was intense.

I FINALLY caught up with you guys, and places are pretty much locked in (just waiting for a couple personal messages though regarding some leeway).

When the event is officially over, I'll tally things up and I'll conjure up some bonuses for this atrocity lol. Glad to hear a lot of you still had fun despite all of the issues though, pretty much everything went wrong that could have.

EDIT: Time's up! Going to compare those who submitted the answers with their respective teams (or just them if they played solo), and get that all sorted out.

**Bluearrowll** · 04-20-2013, 12:04 AM

The crossword appears blank for me right now, looks like by some of the comments this is a known issue.. let me know when fixed so I can start the crossword ##

Uhh this sort of got out of hand, but this event ended as soon as 4/20 came around server time. I apologize because this isn't in the op, but it is in the same post as the link to the crossword, so you would have seen it if you have access to the puzzle.

Tons of stupid crap happened during this event that was out of my control (the inability to use the crossword once soever is one of those ridiculous issues). Some people got it to work by using firefox, but still that was unacceptable. Also the winning splash screen was glitched, and turned blank if you filled it in properly, so everyone had to send me pms so I could manually check the accuracy. This thing was tested multiple times a while back, and a few people were able to complete it then glitch free. I have no idea what brought on all of the crazy issues, and there really wasn't any time to fix them (or people here to do so).

My bad I read this as it would finish 23 hours from now, oh well maybe next time. Neat idea!

**25thhour** · 04-20-2013, 12:41 AM

It was really fun foxfire!

You should totally do another one of these!

Thanks, it was a pretty interesting concept that we had a bit of fun putting together. Too bad all of this happened.

For those who submitted puzzles during the event, here are your stats!

I've been straight up replying to your messages for several hours now, and I'm tired as hell right now. I added you guys to a list and replied to everything one by one, but if somehow I missed you, post here that I did and show me the pm you sent before the event ended. Since those who won them wouldn't get their tokens until as early as tomorrow anyway (and because I'm far too tired to do math right now) I'll make out the credit totals when I wake up in the morning.

Feel free to post some suggestions on credit bonuses I should give out for dealing with the various bull crap that sprang from this event.

PS (to 25thhour): The crossword event idea actually is quite nice. Although if we do this another time, we'll go with less major glitches and pitfalls of terrible luck. That would be great.

really hyped about getting 2nd for trivia, really happy to get that token

the extra cash is really nice too :P

**Elite Ninja** · 04-20-2013, 02:44 AM

Wow we actually managed to get a good enough placement for tokens (finally can get TWWW)! :3

Thanks for the event and all the hard work and thanks to my team for the fun we had solving these puzzles ^^

**25thhour** · 04-20-2013, 04:50 AM

Cool! We did good guys!

Considering sun and I had no idea for most of them :P

**Guest15937** · 04-20-2013, 06:52 AM

Darn, two places away from getting a special token

dancepeopledance · 04-20-2013, 10:25 AM

Oh gosh. I'm so sorry for missing it. Internet went down for most of the day.

It's prefectly OK if you don't include me in the prizes. Completely goofed up there. Looks like my team still did kinda well though. Congrats
