Yeah, I have no clue what that says either without replying on an awful machine translation, but it looks like our Japanese friends are doing an egg hunt (I think I remember they were also getting some form of prize for it too).

There have been a few more of these things laying around you might have noticed, in towns (I think I remember seeing one stuck in an Auction House's window) and in dungeons. It is pretty clever and maybe next year we might see this as part of the egg event... it certainly would be a less frustrating way of getting extra eggs then relying on disrupting HELM with random eggs once per game day.

looks like a fun event.
Shame its not a global event

[Yurai]

A Japanese player only event? That is really very disappointing.

[Dragoy]

Nothing new in region-X-only stuff in this game, though (like the recent moogle-stick thing).
I mean it's all good they do fun stuff for the players but I still think it should be for everyone, or no one.

It is disappointing to say the very least.

Seeing as how this is a contest with visual elements in the actual game, it's extremely disappointing to see that the contest wasn't also carried over to other regions. A screenshot caption contest or something like that is one thing, but when its in the game and players around the world are finding the items, it makes little sense to have it only be for one group of players.

Would love to hear the reason behind not having this contest available in NA and EU.

Didn't they already say they are restricted by laws for events in other countries, that's not to say they can't eventually do a NA and EU version.

That's been mentioned in the past yes, but I believe it was more focused towards gambling type events ie mogbonanza

[Dragoy]

Yeah, the screen-shot caption and such aren't exactly happening in-game, but they're rewarding in-game items and being a collector, I just don't like that way of doing it. :|

I mean not that I would win anything, but when not even given the chance, it is disappointing.

As for laws and whatnots, sure, that I can understand when and if there are real-life items as prizes. But when the rewards are only in-game, this does not fly, at all.

Maybe that's just me, though.

But there is those laws. Not going into how many laws are stupid, but it's not the first time the laws have been questionable, doesn't change that they must be followed.

As a random note: a lot of laws carry over into MMORPG's it's not surprising these ones do as well.
