Mardi Gras Carnival event

[swashbuckler II]

Its on test right now, It says it has fireworks and the bonfire from thanksgiving is back again.

When I log on test it says could not connect to gameserver.test.piratesonline.com:6776. Try again?
Oh, I see. They emailed me saying ever once in a while when they update I have to tell my firewall to allow pirates.

I have to see this carnival.

EDIT: Cool. I wonder why they put this on test, though.

[swashbuckler II]

they are probably testing it for open, this will probably be an easter special, search for it

Erm, I get that every time I log on to test (after 60 or 90 seconds) then click OK to actually connect. Doesn't everyone?

[swashbuckler II]

Nope, I never got that until yesterday. I had to make it so my firewall will let pirates in but now it takes about 90 seconds to load and I see a grey screen.
I never even experienced that on my old computer.


That madri gras thing was fun. I got ten tonics from that pork.

I have not logged back into test since they shut down for maintenance last night.
I'll try tonight......

I have been seeing this also. Been doing it almost any time I switch tasks. forums here, to a different account etc. I have been wondering if maybe its in explorer or something.

I use to hit the OK, but was getting lag and weird effects going on. Now I cancel, and second time always works.

[Edward Edgemenace]

Rats. On test, I could have used the pork! By the time it let me download the bonfire update and log in, the event was over. (A POTCO event that I missed? Must have been super-quick.)

I just want to know where we get the beads and is the town center considered Bourbon Street?

[anndreeuhh]

This 'carnival' isn't anything special. I was expecting it to be a little better, maybe beads hanging everywhere........... nothing. Its the same thing from the super exciting Founders Feast.



Haven't been on it since last night but if its gone, you didn't miss anything. They could at least add some decorations.

[Fillyteen]

It was only for a few hours last night, I didn't see any fireworks as it said.

The only thing there was the music guys, pig roast and the fire

[Erich Uchiha]

I don't know about you guys,

But I would rather like to have the chance to get Green hair and other St. Patty's Day stuff

Mardi Gras and St. Pats are two different holidays/events. How about waiting until March gets here and we find out what they're doing for that month?

/event on OPEN right now shows 118 hours, 11 minutes remaining in the "Mardi Gras Carnival" with occasional roast pork on Tortuga and possibly fireworks?
