So, according to this page on the POL site:
http://www.playonline.com/pcd/topics/ff11us/detail/15345/detail.html
It says that March 11th, 0:00 (PST) there should be a Wanted Dial on the Gobbiebox Goblins.
There is no Wanted Dial on the Goblin, even though it is March 11th 7:22 PST as of this post. I logged on after 7:00 PST, and even logged off to switch characters to check another character.
I've checked two different goblins on two different characters that are well more than 45 days old.

same here, i checked, double checked and re-checked times and dates.
i waited for 8:00am GMT to pass, waited for JPN midnight to pass. Nothing came up on the dial campaign on any of my characters (2) .
several threads on different forums already have ppl complaining/stating the same issue.
(of course i cannot vouch for them but just letting you guys know i'm not the only one!)

Oddly enough the wanted dial doesn't seem to be on the JP page for the campaign. I don't know how you can translate an entire paragraph that doesn't exist though.
Seems S/E forgot to add it to any of the servers, Cerberus has no wanted dial like others.

Be nice to see a Mod or someone reply to this as to what is going to happen with the dial. Whether its being looked into, or they're just plain not going to do it now.
Its funny I activated 13mules($13.00) just to be ready for this and now I wish I hadnt even activated them.

i agree, the silence from anyone over this is outstanding, Just a simple acknowledgement of it would be nice. But i feel you about the mules, My wife and I both kept our mules active after getting the wardrobes 3/4 active since we didnt need them anymore but a gobbychest campaign was too good to pass up on.
Wonder how much they made from people activating or not deactivating their mules by doing that?

Extra $11 from me. T_T
It wasn't listed on the JP side announcement, so odds are pretty good it was an announcement error (similar to how half the login items were not listed initially.)

They released a statement today about the orb trading error, but no mention of Wanted dials.

yet, even their statement was wrong since its 2:1 for the campaign and their complaining that it should be 3:1

Oi. I'm just scratching my head, wondering just what's wrong with them? I mean seriously, they don't remember what they said should even be in the campaign?

JP Midnight ding, and still no Wanted Dial.
Wonder if they are going to address this or not..

Still no wanted dial. SE is really dropping the ball here. And why are they trying to fix the seal trade ratio when it's *supposed* to be 2:1 for the campaign? I'm starting to worry about these people...

Yep, even that is wrong..
Where is the quality control? I.e someone checking all this before it goes out on release?

My guess is that the team never actually intended for it to be there. I can't think of any other realistic reason why it would appear on the English page but not the Japanese one.

So what all does the JP page say should be in this campaign, then?

From what I can tell, the existence of the Wanted Dial campaign is the only actual difference between the two pages. We should be getting everything else that's listed on the English page except that.

Someone else said the 2:1 seal trading ain't on the JP version either?

This isn't accurate. It states on the JP page that Shemo will exchange seals at a rate of 2:1.
Edit: The JP version of the page is here if you would like to take a look at it: http://www.playonline.com/pcd/topics/ff11/detail/15344/detail.html. You may run it through an automatic translator if you like, but the bit about the seal exchange rate stands out, even if you know no Japanese whatsoever.

sounds like maybe they had a copy/paste screw up as well

I can't say for sure. However, SE have announced that they have resolved the issue regarding Shemo. I just checked, and as of right now, he is exchanging seals at a rate of 2:1. I didn't remember to check what the exchange rate was before the fix, but I've seen other players state that he was exchanging at 3:1 before then.

I really hope this isn't turning into the case of SE acting like "If we don't acknowledge it it's not a problem" cause this lack of any response to this is getting old. They no longer have multiple systems to care for, not making any expansions and last update was lower then lackluster so what is the issue with a simple yes or no over this?

What I assume happened is that whoever runs the English version of POL somehow jumped the gun/misread what the campaign was supposed to have, posted that it should have a Wanted Dial but the JP people are going "Nope, we ain't doing no Wanted Dial." and so everybody just shrugs it off.
That, or they are still... discussing... things, 3 days later. "Should we? Nah.. but they're gonna get mad! ... oh well" etc etc.

Even when the more active ComRep's like Camate were active for the last few years, 99% of their posts were actually translated posts from JPside ComReps. While there have been exceptions to NA feedback being addressed, they are unfortunately "exceptions". All that I'm asking for as a customer is for the front page posts to be corrected once any inconsistencies, typos, errors, etc have been discovered/reported. There were other errors in this month's postings (login points page missing majority of items for instance), so I'm gonna chalk up the Wanted Dial issue to that as well.

The same thing is happening to me on Ragnarok.
Two things:
1) As of yet no one has used the proper form for reporting this problem. Will SE ignore or reject because the form is missing?
2) Just an observation: This is what occurs when the TEST SERVER is no more! Bring back the TEST SERVER, please!
Oh, one last thing:
We were suppose to get 20 days of this event, are we going to still get 20 days? If not, please, include it in next month as an ADDITION not a replacement or in place of something, etc.

At least an acknowledgment of the error would be nice. Then we can stop hoping it'll appear at some point.

Same probelm. GM IG said I have to come here and post the bug.
If SE would say "hey its not bug,just mistake" we all could go on.
