2.4 Release date predictions

[Earendur]

I find this strange on the time allotted to claim the gold dyes.
"Players will be eligible to obtain the pots of metallic gold dye by logging in to the game between the maintenance completion and Oct. 24, 2014 12:00 a.m. (PDT)"
Something happening on the 24th? Either another hotfix or patch 2.4.

Edit: Just notice the similarities, 24th>2.4

like said before you read too much into it, i think they simply give one week for this.

I think it has more to do with keeping the item rare since it is being awarded through the Moogle delivery system. The Moogle system delivers the items to all characters on the account, as such for the brief period, gold dyes will be abundant since players with full subscriptions can pretty much just keep creating/deleting characters and trading their dyed items through a friend. Hence, that period can't be extended for too long.

Don't you have to do a quest to be able to dye your gear though?

While I'd like to see the 21st and half expect it due to the info dump we've been getting this week just before Fan Fest and the Live Letter, a friend of mine reminded me that we still have no trailer and we usually get the patch a week after the trailer. However, they may have held off on the trailer so they can show it at Fan Fest. Who knows? :P

I thought the new dye's are untradable regardless?
