Found Shamus O'Mally? Post Here.

Talk about a wild goose chase, and a serious let down for an event. Whats the point of GM events when there is no rhyme or reason to find appearances??

Its a nice thought, but personally, its downright silly. Theres just no point to it. You could waste an entire day seeking out a GM, or Shamus, but with no method to the appearances, its like finding a needle in a Haystack. I mean, multiply the number of servers times the two island spots they were making random appearances, and then try and find someone. Good luck.

I wish Disney would put the time into upgrades we can ALL enjoy, rather than an insane scavenger hunt with little benefits to the majority of players.

This was a serious let-down.

I think you are missing the point - what makes it special is that not all pirates will get a chance to see Shamus - or get his gold. I agree that something we can all participate in is nice - but not everyone wins the lottery.

Its not about winning... its about an anticipated event that people can PARTICIPATE in. Im not worried about his gold - Im maxed - but it would be nice to know WHEN and WHERE the GM's will be, don't you think?

Rather than a silly advertised wild goose chase. Its not about winning, its about participating, and when you don't know where to find GMs, servers to search, or when/where to be INVOLVED, it makes it NOT fun for the majority of people in the game.

I could have cared less about the gold, but Id have liked to have seen some GM's or been able to know HOW to participate IF I wanted to.

I'll maintain - pretty bad event.

Disney was trying to do a find the Leprechaun kind of event - or so I think - and as many people that were looking for Shamus on St. Patricks day I would say that QUITE A FEW PARTICIPATED.

Telling us where Shamus was would take the fun out of it - to your comment of when and where - other GMs gave hints on where Shamus was, and lots of people found him pretty easily.

I don't think it was a great event but it wasn't as bad as stated- I saw tons of players talking about finding Shamus (I think there was only one - and a few Shamuses (or is it Shamus'?) could have better served the ton of players trying to find him). If I were Disney I would consider that mission accomplished.

Yes, this was a scavenger hunt which you are totally within your right not to enjoy - lots of other players including myself did.

But I do agree that I want to see more story quest and larger scales events that involve everyone - but I appreciate something unique like this every now and then too.
