Pancake Day 2024



[h2]Howdy, Hunters![/h2]

We're a day over IRL but in the EHR, we're still eating pancakes. There were just too many kinds to fit them all one day, so we're in it for the week. We're using the old-style event format for this with points and individual prizes - too much to hope the cheaters gave that up for Lent, but we can hope. You can gain Pancake$ by taking part in the event's mission and competitions, as well as harvesting Sheep, Goats and Ibex. You may also notice some new Pancake Collectibles scattered around the EHR! They look delicious.



Participate for the prizes, the trophies, and the glory! The hunter with the most Pancake$ at the end of February 20th will win a very generous first prize!

Disclaimer: Pancake Day refers to the food, virtual or real.


In order to take part in the event, you will have to click on the big banner you will find in the Launcher (or Website) home page:



Please read on to familiarize yourself with the rules of the event.

CALENDAR


Event Duration: 7 days

Start: 14 February 2024 (Wednesday) - morning

End: 20 February 2024 (Tuesday) - 23.59 UTC



CAMPAIGN


So how do you collect Pancake$?



There are new collectables all over the EHR! Pick them up when you see them and collect Pancakes$!

And this is how the prize pool looks:


MISSION


This year's mission is called Don't Be A Pancake.

Did you know you get savoury pancakes as well? In the spirit of the event, Monica and Hans are putting together loads! They'll need some ingredients since the savoury ones will be the main course. Unfortunately, someone stole all the sweet pancakes as well, so keep an eye out for those while you're hunting. Yeah, we're not off to a good start. Still, we have perfect faith in you, hunter!



The mission will last through the event duration from the 14th February to the 20th February


Completing it will earn the hunter the following rewards:



COMPETITIONS


Qualifying in a competition awards 100 Pancake$ for each comp. You don't need to place, just have an entry.

Prizes for the competitions look like this:



Each competition comes with 7 tiers based on your Hunter Score:



RULES


What would a game be without rules?

We have one simple rule for our events: No exploitation of existing game mechanics to gain an advantage. All winners' hunts will be checked by EW staff prior to prizes being rewarded, and the decision will be final.

In case of exploits usage, EW has a right to disqualify the player from this event.

SALES


And what would an Event be without sales? We're not sure, but we do know that we'd get nasty messages if we skipped them, so we've made sure to put sales in.

Make sure to check out the Sale section to see the full list!



That's all folks, any questions, feel free to post them below.

Enjoy all!

GAME UPDATE



Howdy Hunters!


It's time for a QoL release, clean up some of those niggling little things that irritate when one is just trying to enjoy a nice hunting session. We haven't gotten rid of all of them, but there are fewer to bug you now.

New Stuff:

  • We want players to be able to block the malicious messages they do not want to receive, so we added a new checkbox allowing you to receive direct messages only from friends. And yes, we consider Doc or any other Staff as your friends, so you can't block those messages :)


Bug fixes:

  • The management of the Trophy Lodge and Bait Sites didn't work through the website, so it is fixed now
  • The hooks for some bows were incorrectly aligned in the lodges - we've made them tidy
  • Tooltips for tents did not work properly after switching them off and on - it is fixed now. Please note that tents are used for fast travelling, therefore you can't switch their tooltips off completely (same as for lodges)
  • There was a delay in updating the Daily Mission rewards, it should be better now
  • Maisto 12 GA Sawed-Off-Shotgun ( Wolfsbane ) was missing from the Weapons Skills list - added now
  • Jeeps' inventory now gets saved after game restart
  • Deleting the trophy shots didn't work in the gallery, it works fine now
  • Lodges' style names were corrupted - fixed
  • Dark Bighorns had a scar on the neck in the lodge - texture updated
  • All color variations for European Rabbit registered as Common - fixed
  • Dark Grey Wolves did not complete the appropriate objectives in missions - fixed


That's all for now. Let us know if you find any bugs along the way.

Happy Hunting!
