			Well since the event started a day late, it's only logical to also end it a day early. /Carbine logic.

Why are the NPCs in thayd no longer available? It still the 26th? in fact it 10am on the 26th my time?
 
The event said until the 26th? Like other events when it said until XDay it was still going!?
 
how uncool to take the event offline early!

			I am REALLY glad I spent all my currency last night.  I somehow thought that this would happen.

			It's not early.  The info page was never properly corrected to reflect the extension.  If you check the "WANT MORE SIM CHASE?  WE DO TOO!" thread in the announcement forum it says the event ends on the 26th at 10AM PST.  So right on time.

Hey All -
 
We're very sorry for the confusion - we updated in the News and Information forums (post can be found here), but forgot to update the main article to reflect to proper time.
 
Sim-chase is indeed over, but we have more events coming up shortly! We'll keep you updated.
 
Thanks!

And queue the rage over a widely proclaimed hated event ending early

I may not have run any adventures, but I really wanted more of the decor. I waited and waited for my purchase limit to reset so I could buy the crates and cards I needed, and then the event ended fourteen hours earlier then I expected.
 
This is the first time I've actually felt angry at Carbine. I hope they revisit their decision to end in the morning before this day is over.

You know, a little consistency as to when these events would be nice and would avoid a lot of the confusion:  Almost every other event has ended 11:59 PST, so it's not entirely surprising that a lot of people felt Sim-Chase would follow suit - myself included.
 
Event End Times:
Sim-Chase: 10am PST
Boss Hunter Challenge: 11:59pm PST
Winter-Fest: 11:59pm PST
Space-Chase: 11:59pm PST
X-Plosion: 11:59pm PST
Double Prestige Bonus: 11:59 PST
Shade's Eve: 11:59 PST
And the fact that the event page actually listed 11:59 pm PST only compounds the confusion.  I'm really disappointed since I now have a bunch of useless particles, plus I was also intending to buy a crate or two today.  You would think how the events are handled would improve with time, but this was perhaps handled the worst as it was not only didn't start when it was supposed to (which was poorly communicated), but given two completely different end-times.  How were we supposed to know to look for a forum post with the "accurate" end-time when the launcher linked to the event page.  And why, if the event was extended, would the end-time need to change?
 
Whoever is in charge of doing event write-ups is continually doing a very poor job.  These events shouldn't end with players feeling frustrated and disappointed because they were given the wrong information.

Aaand the world boss hunt fiasco with misleading official news happens again to a lesser degree.
 
Guys, guys, something needs to be done, you can't continue messing up like this.
 
Post-Its would be a good start, I think.

Ugh, why did I listen to the voice of reason last night rather than the voice of intuition.
 
Reason said: "It's late get to bed, you can buy everything after work tomorrow the event will still be going since all the others ended way past the you get home."
Intuition said: "you never know what the hell will happen no matter if you read the main article again tonight or not, buy now and get less sleep."
 
Sigh, all of my sim cards are worthless now, and I have no decor.  
 
Damn Reason, foiled again by Carbine doing things that make no sense.	
----
			And yet again...  instead of shutting down the entire event prematurely, why don't you stop the shards ( or whatever ) at that time and leave the vendors up for another 24 hours?  Seems like that would do a better job of alerting everyone rather than posting the information on one of the multiple threads that Carbine started.  The rage that Starslammer is referring to is really just angry customers.

			I know it's not the solution everyone wants, but if you're really in need of some Sim Chase items you missed out on, check out the auction house ASAP. Everything was fairly priced yesterday but that's won't be the case in a few days. :ph34r:

You have got to get the way you present the information to us in order; it has to be correct and consistent, any corrections or additions need to be displayed prominently, accurately and in time. You're creating unnecessary problem where there should be none and making the studio appear less than professional.
 
Agreed that there should be a clear start and end time presented in game for each event.
 
Put only one person in charge of this for every single event (plus a single backup who communicate with each other) and give them the correct information as soon as you have it to be updated immediately and players notified.
 
 
I may not understand having to wait until the last moment to spend your event currencies - where planning for unforeseen circumstances seems like a better idea (what if something else had happened that prevented you from accessing the game that last day etc...) - but it's not your fault the information given was again inconsistent and not corrected properly. Really sorry you got screwed by this, I know how upset I'd be in your place.
