<p>Oh, Thank Goodness, I like this one the least out of all six and I don't have the time to put into a City Feast this month...</p>

[Kitsune75]

<p>I'm planning on making a Barbarian Beastlord, and this will be a nice way to start it out. Hopefully, I can get it all done before the festival ends.</p>

[Arbreth]

<p>Will this be extended an extra day?</p>

[Laeandoria]

<p>Please extend the city festival. I work on my city tokens until the last day then I buy my stuff. It would sad me very much if I have to wait 6 months to get my tiles</p>

[Katz]

<p>I wil add my request to extend the city festival by the length of time that the servers were down. </p>

[SgtPmpkn]

<p>Aye an extension of 1.5 - 2 days is in order for this festival please.</p>

[Sharann]

<p>+1! Please extend the city festival by at least 1 day <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" /></p>

[Therendil]

<p>I'll vote for that. Please extend the festival bt the full amount of the downtime, whatever that turns ou to be.</p><p>-= Therendil =-</p>

[thesiren]

<p>Yes yes, please do!  Our new BLs need to be Snowflake Chasers *and* Frostfell Fanatics for sure!  <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/ed515dbff23a0ee3241dcc0a601c9ed6.gif" border="0" /></p>

[Brutalicus]

<p>What about the halas city festival or the cronomage missions?  I had been knocking out one of the cronomage missions each day to get access to all the replicas.  I have not been able to log on at all today so does this mean I will have to wait another month and a half to get the cronomage mission I will be  missing?   I will also be missing a whole day of messing around getting tokens and house items from the city festiival.  Ill have to wait 6 months to catch up on that?</p><p>Add my vote as well to extending it.   Also set chronomissions back a day or 2 so we dont miss one</p>

[ceester]

<p>We should totally have another two days of city festival time!  Please keep the requests coming, they may give us the time back!</p>

[KindredHeart]

<p>Yes please, or even better ... turn on the full Aether Races <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

[Katttara]

<p>Adding my vote here too...please extend...this is just not right <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

[SecrAtive Girl]

<p>yes i would like an extension as well. i had planned to do it on the 6th and 7th and didn't get too *quivers bottom lip in a very sad way*</p><p>*adds the customary plate of cookies to her plea*</p>

[Afista]

<p>I planned my city festival days on the 6th and 7th too (to avoid new expansion/Frostfell craziness the first couple days) and did not get to it since servers were down those an extra day. I'd love to see the festival up for a couple days to compensate. Thanks!</p>

[BeeJay]

<p>I'm curious, just which part of New Halas is that Festival Crier actually strolling around ?</p>

[Zhadowsee]

<p>SOE,</p><p>You have always been fair in compensating lost time to players.  I'd like to remind you of your gracious allowances during Sony's hacking incident where you opened all of the grottos and all of the city fairs for us to enjoy.  </p><p>Please do the right thing and let us enjoy the New Halas Fair for the days that were lost.  </p><p>Thank you.</p>

[Aerfen]

<p>I would like to see the event opened up for an additional day as well.  These festivals only happen once every 6 months, so for those of us who stockpile so we can decorate, the loss of 1+ day is a big deal.  Please open the event back up for the time the servers were down.</p><p>Your effort is greatly appreciated!</p><p>Aerfen</p>

<p>It seems the Halas city festival is currently back at least on Oasis server, but not on Splitpaw.</p><p>So will it come to EU as well? (perhaps there was an announcement somewhere but then I missed it and there's nothing on the in-game calendar).</p>

Since there is no reason all servers are not treated equally.</p>
