seriously. why should a 12 hour rollback = 120 hours of double exp?

we should just leave it double exp all the time in that case.

i think the idea was for those who lost valuable time from the roll back to have a chance to get that time back more efficiently. Not all p1999 players can log on everyday so by that assumption a couple of days of double xp would give substantial opportunity to get that back. I do not speak for the devs but I think the idea is not to penalize those players who lost the xp, but yes everyone else gets the benefit of a few days of extra xp. It's not permanent so who is losing out? I see your point but double xp is not gonna get me to level 50 in 3 days unless i was already in the high 40s, maybe I'm wrong.

As I said before really the devs owe us nothing but its a nice act to help out players who did lose valuable time, maybe even worth letting a few others get an extra level or two over the weekend.

It is a great idea, but it needs to end by at least Saturday night. Sunday is too long.

I worked yesterday and was able to log on for about 1.5 hours. I got my last yellow of 35, dinged 36, and promptly logged.

This morning as I was preparing to leave for work I saw the rollback message, logged on, and re-grinded back to 36 in about 45 minutes.

I don't see why it would take past Friday for anyone to make up the progress they lost on the roll back. The folks who are more time limited such as myself probably weren't on for 12 hours yesterday, and those who were on all day likely will find 12 hours to play in the next day or so.

Geeze. If people don't like the notion of double XP then avoid playing while it's on. I think the vast majority of players like the idea of a temporary boost and really appreciate the reason for it. There was a roll back which sucks for a lot of people. Not everyone can get on today / tomorrow so a longer duration will help. It gets so tiring seeing a handful of people on the boards treating this like it's the end of the world. Do things which limit XP gain if it's such a bitter pill to swallow. This is temporary and for a good reason. LEt it last a while so that everyone has a chance to benefit from it.

I agree it would be nice to stop the double exp a day earlier than you would have otherwise and instead make that day Saturday/Sunday. It's the same amount overall but would definitely give everyone a chance to enjoy.
