I would like to point out something in this thread that some people may or may not factor in:
Some people left the event 1/2way in because of boredom, didn’t like it, or whatever reason. They “might” see themselves qualifying for a reward because of general participation, but they volunteered to leave mid-event and shouldn’t be rewarded. Impatience shouldn’t be rewarded, period.
Also, another thing to consider is that those that participated in events that started very late in the evening on overflow servers aren’t open for reward. Those events, as the developer’s said, technically weren’t supposed to be running. The ‘main event’ started at noon PST and ended nearly 4hrs later. So, to say that you were going to get the loot and the servers restarted, which was very late that evening, means that you shouldn’t have so it’s not really a lose and not deserving of reward.
P.S. Even if only 1/4th of the people that missed out due to LEGITIMATE REASONS (during the initial run of the event only) get rewarded here, it’s still a very good “+” for A.Net. Most every other company wouldn’t go out of it’s way to satisfy customers, but instead say “we’re sorry, won’t happen again” and that would be the end of it.
basic survey only please
Not to say much, but it’s highly unlikely many people are going to post they didn’t attend yet got a reward mail. It’s simple statistics. Only a small portion of the playerbase posts on the forums and even a smaller portion of that will have received a mail while not having attended the event at all.
It would be faster to check the accounts that got a mail to the login records of that day.
You are correct, but I am hoping that a few people will give me this data, and I feel it does not hurt to ask it here. It’s not as if we would go onto their account and delete the chest — I just want some actual cases of this — where someone did not log into the event at any time — to help our programmers assess the situation.
Can’t hurt to ask, right?
there is a thread that people have said they didnt attend the event but still go the chest
Yes, she’s looking for them, so that supports that this poll is being conducted too soon. They are not done finding recipients.
this tread might help them locate players who received the reward even though they did not attend
Did you check the link I posted? That supercedes that email.
yes it does and this thread was created after the email and before the response from the thread mod and incase u didnt read the thread the mod posted in she is looking for players who didnt attend and still go the chest
It’s too soon to do this. It may take a few days before they’re able to get the script to process for every server. You’ll have people saying no and then posting later to say yes. This kind of polling is fundamentally wonky anyway, so it’ll be double wonky!
Can’t find the thread back (probably merged) but a guy, after complaining at support, has shown the answer saying that everyone that had the glitch received it, and that the script is over.
EDIT: Just check the merging thread. Everyone who complains receives it.
According to this from a few minutes ago, they’re still figuring out who should get an email:
So my point stands.
please do not derail the thread
as stated above
people received emails
Hi there;
At this time, we have finished delivering the rewards for the Lost Shores event to all accounts that qualified. This was done through a coding script for any account found to have qualified for the chest. If you have not received a chest then you most likely did not meet the requirements to have these items added to your account.
Now that said there does also appear to be some issues with the mail system. It seems mail boxes are getting stuck and not receiving new mails even when they are not full. So I would suggest clearing out everything in that mail box; after making sure to grab any items or money in there. That should allow more room for those pending mails to arrive. We have heard some cases where only deleting a few mails still didn’t allow the pending mails to arrive properly (for example some players may even show 1 out of 10 mails but still won’t get new ones). So I would again suggest making sure everything has been deleted in there, just to make sure there is nothing at all preventing the mails from being received.
As this was done through an automated process we have no way to manually award this chest. So if after you empty your mail the chest still doesn’t arrive, then your account was not found to have qualified for a restoration and I’m afraid you will not receive the chest.

if your looking for someone who recieved the chest but didnt not attend the ancient karka event check my thread https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Ancient-Karka-Box-Survey/page/2
Gaile, there’s a thread in the General Discussion forum that’s gathering information on the distribution. It’s asking players whether they attended, looted, and received the mail. There’s several people stating they not only looted the chest, but also got the mail as well.
The first report of it in the thread is here:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Ancient-Karka-Box-Survey/first#post943269I hope this will help you gather more information. (:
my thread!!!!
Away/Looted yep…
did u not attend the event at all?
before everyone freaks out anet responded on a thread with
Guys,
We are looking into this matter. We initially believed that anyone who earned a chest surely would receive one, and that is why the email refers to clearing the mailbox. We believed yesterday that the list was complete and all earned chests were distributed. However, we have noted continued questions about the matter and we are not discounting that there may be an issue. The team will get to the bottom of it and I’ll update you when we know more.
i filled it out but most my answer were low score….
This turned out to be a huge mess.
In summary, right now there are 3 things that should not be happening, are happening:
1. People who participated, got reward, got another box in the mail. Double reward for these Chosen Ones?
2. People who never even logged on or participated in the event got a box in the mail. “Don’t know what this Karka thing is…but hey I got free stuff!”
3. People who participated, DC’d at the reward or missed out, still have no box in the mail. Sucks to be them, I hope they get their share.Instead of this double lucky ones, undeserving ones, and unlucky ones thing…
Can’t Anet do a scan on each account for 20 slot karka bags? I severely doubt ppl just “destroy” those bags for laughs n giggles. So whoever has one of those gets 1 more box in the mail, whoever has none of those gets 2 boxes in the mail, and whoever has 2 gets nothing. At this point everyone will be at even level. Sure, people who never participated gets free stuff, but that has already happened anyway.
that would of been the most logical and smart move
people who attended and looted-got it again
people who attended and didn’t loot-got it
people who a attended and didn’t loot-didn’t get it
people who didn’t attend-got it
people who didn’t attend-didn’t get it
I FEEL LIKE I’M TAKING CRAZY PILLS
oh ya and i didn’t get mine in the mail and i attended
Attended/Looted/got the mail
At least they are trying. However I looted it with my lvl 46 Warrior at the time not knowing we were going to get precursors but at least this time I felt I got a fair chance at the lvl 80 exotics so imo they did me right
I lol’ed…considering how many ppl attended, didnt loot and didnt receive the mail then yeah…YOU have been treated very fair xD
please refrain from turning this tread into one of THOSE threads

this is not acceptable I’m getting the infinite loading screen about 20% of the time , a crash while loading 30% of the time , and a extremely long loading screen time 2-5 minutes the rest of the time (it used to be 30 seconds at most), it has prevented me from doing content such as fractals instances and spvp
invite me please US
I can understand people being annoyed that they wasted time doing part of this, but I can’t see why anyone would be upset simply for not getting to do it. The reward is pitiful (only 5 Council tokens), and there wasn’t anything interesting about the 3 npc encounters either. Also it definitely didn’t cost any gold.
i spent about 50s using the wps checking and rechecking the npcs
There were some events that we could not extend past Phase 1, unfortunately. Extending all events in Phase 1 would have been a much more extensive fix, requiring much more time to thoroughly regress. Given the time sensitive nature of the event, we extended what portions we were able to effectively.
Our developers are reading all of your feedback and are taking all the critiques on board.
We apologize that this means that folks are not able to complete the Miyani chain.
so what im getting out of this is “were sorry that you didn’t get to complete the event ,wasted your time and gold trying to complete it”.
“better luck next beta event”
yes this is a QQ thread but only due to me being frustrated. i had a stroke when i was younger which took away the use of my left hand(no function at all). i have been able to do every jump puzzles till this one, because i took my time and you can’t on this one. and honestly i tend to avoid content that i am unable to do cause of my disablility. but since this is required for “emissary of the mad king” achievement , i have to figure out a way to do it. I’m not asking for anet to change the puzzle , cause i think its a great puzzle.
if anyone has any suggestions for me id greatly appreciate it.
