"Week in the Life" Event Details

Build amount question.

Extended Portion gets us 4 build +2 optional purchased, and the weekend is as per normal event. Does that mean we can also buy the normal +1 optional build for the weekend itself, technically allowing us to purchase an extra +3 build for the entire event?

Related question: will there be extra SP conversion for the Extended Portion or just the normal for a regular event?

NPC Duty
Extended Portion (Wed Night - Friday Afternoon):
2 Hour Mandatory, +1 build for each additional 2 hour slot, up to 2 slots, Each additional slot after that is +500 SP.

Can people who attend only the weekend portion take advantage of the additional build for 2 hour slots of NPCing, in other words NPCing 8 hours during the weekend (4 normal, 4 more for the +2 build)?

Due to my work schedule I only might be able to make Thursday or Wednesday of the extended part, will I be allowed to NPC just for the one day or will I need to be there for the full weekend?

So if my math is correct and you buy everything out it's $105, which buys you 6 build for the extra days and w/e your normal build it. That's a lot of money and for something that is not tangible.
The banquet was $70 maxed out and if i recall you got 9 build and a self teach skill. Is there a self teach skill for this $85-$105, is there food provided during the 1st extra portion? Just wanted to know.

You're looking at this as money = build, which is erroneous.  It's money = event.  It's not $105 for 6 buld, it's $105 for 85 hours worth of an event and staying at the camp, which IS tangible.

Let me attempt to answer some of these questions

1)Fates will work in your favor. meaning If you buy a fate on Wed, it will last the entire event. We have to be sure to write the fate on both of your cards though.

2)Event based skills will work in your favor. Meaning, they will be allowed to refresh per card.

3)Pricing for first time players will work as it always has been 1/2 price for your first event. In this case, I will extend the discount to the full fee for the event, if they are paying for both parts of the event.

4) The extended portion of the event will last until Friday at 2pm. At 2pm a hold will be called and the extended portion will be over, and the regular event will start at around 9pm Friday night. This will allow for regular event arrival and checkin.

5) Geoff's answer to Shannon was correct

6) Food and Kitchen details are still being worked out. Sorry for the delay.

7) For the regular portion of the event you can purchase the additional +1 build as per normal.

8 ) As another incentive for the extended portion of the event, you will be allowed to convert SP for that separately from the regular portion of the event. For the extended portion you can convert 200 SP to 2 build regardless of character blanket.

9) The build for additional NPC slots are only valid for the extended portion of the event, as we will be in more of a demand for NPCs at that time.

10) You are allowed to sporadically attend the extended portion of the event. Meaning if you can show up wed night, but then have work thursday morning until thursday night you can then come back thursday night etc...  If you are PC'ing you obviously still get all the benefits. If you are NPC'ing, you might get a little less in the way of compensation, its only fair that someone NPC'ing the whole thing gets more compensation than someone NPC'ing less than half of it. We can evaluate each situation individually and scale appropriately.

11) I suck at math, but my calculations came out to 13 build to a high level character who maxes out, and 15 if you put in some extra NPC time in the extended portion. The calculations come out to even more build for characters that are at less then 10 events. Theres no self teach mainly because the extended portion is intended to be laid back and should provide plenty of time to teach/learn. We will attempt go out of the way to provide teachers for characters attending this portion of the event if we can.
