If I create a mules around now, January 27 about 3:10AM EST, will they have enough time to puchase marbles before slaes end?

The '32 days' was very specifically selected to keep anyone from making mules for it the day of or after the announcement.

You can reactivate old mules though.

Event ends 28 Feb, announcement was 25 Jan, meaning 6 days left of Jan = 28 + 6 = 34 days before event ends.

Even allowing for time-zone and posting delay, plenty of time to create mules before the last day, surely?

Secondary reason then: You have to pay for two months on them.

Forgot there were 31 days in January. i still stand by the intent of my original statement though, even if there was a day or two 'window' you could sneak them in (in before 32 = 34 days in SE's world).

#6KojiroSoma, Posted: Jan 31 2013 at 4:48 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) It doesnt matter, since like before, you can only participate once per SE ID. Unless you bought several copies of the game and registered each character on a difirent ID, having one main and 15 mules is going to do exactly as much as having one character available to you.

Where did you get this from? I know they probably had to change some things, but it's always been 10 marbles per mule.

There are other events (that you have to do through the web site) that are once per ID, but this is the first I've heard such about Mog Bonanza (which you do with a character talking to an NPC).

Not once is "SE Account" mentioned in the Bonanza announcement.

The previous drawing that used SE accounts instead of characters was somewhat different since you didn't buy marbles, so I would say it's safe to assume you can buy 10 marbles per character, not account, just like every other year.

Of course, at this point, it is too late to create more characters for the Bonanza.

Other contests, including the original SE account contest, and that one we had in 2012 for the JP vanafest were limited to one winner per SE account. When you entered, you had to fill out a survey online and also designate which prize you wanted and which character you wanted to get it.

Bonanzas are completely different, as you can enter up to 10 times per character.

That's the Nomad Mog Bonanza, a different (and probably one-off) event.
