Hawkin P Molon Labe. League of Infamy 74	Posted - 2013.07.01 21:37:00 - [1] - Quote So if the 3x SP & 3x SP cap starts on thursday, does this mean if we play on wednesday we will not earn as much SP because the 3x cap hasn't started yet? Or is the cap for the whole week tripled (including wednesday) we just won't earn 3x SP on wednesday? This needs to be clarified, because there is no reason to play on wednesday if it's going to keep you from earning the max SP for the week. Also does 3x end on July 10th at reset? (in the morning Eastern time) Or at the end of wednesday July 10th?

If you play wednesday and deplete 30k of that.. now 160,400 of it will be tripled on thursday, which will essentially mean you lost 60k SP. More if you use boosters. That is how I was thinking it would work be then I thought wouldn't CCP realize that everyone who played on Wednesday would be punished? IDK why they just didn't start it on Wednesday it would've been easier for them.

"But some people are uninformed and don't read the forums", well, ain't that a *****? In this case not being rewarded is the same as being punished. Whether you read the forums or not, there are no details to be found. This could be solved easily by having a dev let us know how this is going to work.

This needs to be clarified because I seem to remember the guys at CCP not knowing what it means when you say something lasts "through" a certain day. -Get in an alt, or create one -Play a game -See if your Xp is tripled ... >..> The question is not if we will get 3x xp on Wednesday. The questions is will the XP we earn on wednesday be deducted from the sp cap before it is tripled.

CCP Cmdr Wang wrote: Hi all, So here are the answers to questionis regarding the triple SP event. 1. The weekly SP cap will reset on Wednesday, July 3rd as usual after DT. If you hit your weekly in the first day then you will still be eligible for the extended SP cap for the event on Thursday. For example, if the weekly SP cap was 1000 and you hit the cap on Wednesday before the event starts, then on Thursday we will extend the weekly SP cap to 3000 so you will have an extra 2000 added to your weekly SP cap for the event. Of course, the number I used in the example is just an arbitray number and not the actual SP cap amounts in order to illustrate the point. 2. The passive SP gain and caps are not part of the triple SP event, so they will work normally. 3. Your extra SP earned from skill boosters do not count towards your weekly SP cap. For more info on that go to https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=74943&find=unread In other words, you won't miss out on earning any extra skill points from the Triple SP event if you hit your weekly cap this Wednesday. The amount of SP you earn on Wednesday will not affect the amount of extra SP cap available to you from the event.
