So it seems there is a new feature: Account buffs outside site events
I just got this RE while browsing the forums...

I just got the bonus wizard quest, while I was at 0/15, so I had to do 15 wiz quests in under 5 minutes in order to get it. It expired just as I was on the final one and thankfully I was able to finish it, but normally on the final wizard quest I get a bonus 50 WT and with this bonus/questing, I didn't, so I'm not a fan of it if it's gonna mess up with the normal system. If I had known it wasn't going to give me the bonus 50 WT I would have let it run out and gotten the extra 30 WT from completing the normal 15.
[Edit: I know it's not much but it's still the regular system, unless they removed that feature.]
I like the idea, but not the way it's executed. And 5 minutes is definitely not enough as a bonus unless you've already completed your dailies.
When I went to the buffs, there is one for extra interest, but the bank usually doesn't give me all that much and it expires in 23 years so that seems a bit ridiculous, why does it need to be listed as a buff when clearly it's not anything special?
I got it as well. I also have another buff for 1% interest that runs out in '23 years 4 months 1 week 2 days 32 minutes 44 seconds'.
LOL
I wonder if everyone just got it to begin with and it'll be coded so that it only possibly goes out to people who've completed whatever quests are included in the buff for the day.

cool res. Cant wait to get these
I like the idea of bonus quests, but it's absolutely useless if you haven't done your quests for the day. :(

I just got the wizard buff. Didn't realize there was a five minute timer, so rushed to do them. Hadn't even started when I got the buff.
Thought it interesting that it knew to give me the 50 pt on the 11th one. I wonder what it will give if I get again today?
. . . Someone told me I have two faults. I don't listen and . . . some other stuff they were rattling on about.
You gain the buff Extra Quests which gives you 1 bonus quest with wizard!
Woo hoo!! [edit] Your bonus quest buff has worn out! Well that's bullshit, I didn't even get to use it -_-
It didn't know to give me the bonus WT on my 16th quest, so clearly there are some bugs left in this new bonus if there is a difference between GA and non-GA users with the quest.
Luckily, wiz quests are cheap so I made it just in time by rushing, but 5 min definitely is way too short especially if you haven't even started your dailies.
I had just finished Wiz quests and had started on Maleria's quest when I got the RE for the Wiz. :) I love that those events now make sense. lol
I wonder if the other quest givers will have a RE now. I know Pete does.

I agree that 5 minutes to finish is way to short for most quests, when you still have them all to do.
I wonder if they can count the "bonus" first? I would report the no 50 pt on the 16th quest so they can fix that up. You should not be penalized out of the token.

Your bonus quest buff has worn out!
Err I must have missed the RE lol. o.o
Yeah, was gonna post about it in a bit, gonna try to do all my dailies before the lag gets too hectic first though. Luckily, I've gotten better at doing my dailies faster and faster because I tend to not realize that I haven't done them until like 11pm and have an hour to do them all and autoprice. So hopefully I can get at least the most important ones done tonight before the lag gets out of control from all this traffic and new stuff being added.
I got the wizard one as well, but I had already done all 15 today so it gave me a 16th and another 70 tokens :)
Either the event is more common or I was just lucky but I got the event again. I didn't see the RE. I only noticed because I had the little question mark back on my user info widget. I wasn't able to do another Wiz quest.

I also kind of wish the buff section was clickable. If I didn't have the page open already I wouldn't be able to access it unless I got a RE with another bonus.
Yeah, I'm still confused as to why the bonus interest buff is going on for 23 years. o_0
I also just got another bonus wiz buff, but I can't do it because when I go to the wiz quest page it doesn't allow me. So what's the point of giving out more than one buff if you can only do one extra quest at all?
I think the system is handing them out more often now because they probably upped the REs for it, but it's useless to have the events more frequently if you can only ever get one bonus buff.
I would assume it's that way because they haven't figured out a time for it to actually end so they just put it in for just a long long time until they fix it and figure out a more appropriate time for it. But I wouldn't exactly consider it a buff.
